Trump has gone totally mad. It's 25th Amendment time all day, every day. He's living in a totally invented, fictional world. And he's old and in ill-health.

It's outrageous, reckless, choose your word that Republicans haven't done more to deal with this.

Trump: "The restaurants were all closing, now you can't get into a restaurant. They're opening up new restaurants. It took 12 days for us. We sent in not politically correct military. We sent them in based on merit."

🗽
Trump indicted out of spite
Isn’t lawful—isn’t right

Abuse of power, plain to see
Twisting law for tyranny

Justice used to punish foes
Trump always sinks to further lows
