Add the testing fiasco to the list of crimes to try him and his horrible children for.
What a mess. Runs on stores, the quickest bear market in the modern era, and no clue when we will be able to resume our normal lives. Thanks, you orange clown!
The Dow closed today just a few points over what it was on his inauguration 2017. I’m sure the Orange Clown is kinda upset about that.
I still prefer my punishment. The whole administration, including his family except for Barron since he’s suffered enough, is executed publicly at the Super Bowl half time show. Trump has to watch all of them get mowed down—in one particularly gruesome act, Ivanka is decapitated (Trump forced to pull the lever), and then her head is used to score a field goal—before being drawn and quartered. Barron is then exiled. Not out of revenge, but because the poor kid looks like he’d prefer it. And as long as he promises never to reproduce and to never leave whatever exotic island… Read more »
No, no, no. We don’t need to indulge that kind of fantasy. Don’t be that person. Please.
What Trump has done is no different than going to your oncologist and him telling you that you’re fine, totally cancer-free, and then going back to him two weeks later and saying that I’m just kidding you have cancer I was lying to you. That’s pretty much what Pres. Lump did. First calling the pandemic a hoax and encouraging people to go to work only to finally admit in his oval office address the other night that it’s real. And then in addition to that deliberately encouraging no testing on people because more positives would look poorly upon him. The… Read more »
Of course, this really isn’t Trump’s fault. I thought from the beginning that Trump never believed he would be president. He thought he could run around and make the Trump brand bigger than life and make buckets of money. He thought he would be able to play king-maker by throwing rocks from the sidelines. The fault is the Republican Party – every rotten bit of it. They are still running around praising dear leader for his wonderful handling of this mess as the whole world pukes. And as bad as he is, Trump is a piker compared to McConnell in… Read more »
Yes, Republican Party voters and elected officials have enabled and empowered him throughout this nightmare. But that sociopathic, racist, sexist, kakistocratic asshole has agency. He could quit any time. He chooses not to. I will be goddamned if he is allowed to escape every bloody bit of his personal responsibility for all of this. That said, yes, the entire Republican Party and conservative movement needs to be pushed into the ocean. We need to rout them electorally for a decade and strip them of power to the maximum degrees possible. Only then might there be change from the people leading… Read more »
“Running him out of town on a rail, tarring and feathering, exile on an Antarctic island, and life imprisonment all seem like fairer sentences.” And yet his approval rating hasn’t budged. That so many people in my country could be this ignorant or evil is shocking and depressing. It is obvious these people do not share the values of truth and justice I grew up with. We were the good guys. When things got bad in the depression our Government was there for us. I was extremely moved by my Grandmother getting choked up while telling me about listening to… Read more »
And with all of that he remains close in the polls to anyone else. Someone tell me why, please. Are we the stupidest people on the face of the earth or is this simply proof positive that entrusting life to democracy is a fools errand?
