This is insane.

“It won’t interfere with the current building. It’ll be near it but not touching it — and pays total respect to the existing building, which I’m the biggest fan of," Trump said in July. “It’s my favorite. It’s my favorite place. I love it.”

But Miss Kristi couldn't be bothered to approve FEMA money when river flooding killed all those kids a few months ago near Kerrville.

Luckily our crack senators - Ted Cruz & John Cornyn - got Noem to provide aid as her agency is designed to do.

oh, wait, no they didn't. They didn't do squat.

Just a reminder: trump is a convicted rapist.

Analysis | Judge clarifies: Yes, Trump was found to have raped E. Jean Carroll

What the jury found Donald Trump did to E. Jean Carroll was in fact rape, as commonly understood, even if it didn't fit New York law's narrow definition, says Judge Lewis A. Kaplan.

Trump hosted a dinner this week for donors to his White House ballroom project.

Now he's heading to Mar-a-Lago to host a $1 million-per-person dinner for his super PAC.

Meanwhile, 700,000 federal employees are furloughed, with nearly as many working without pay due to his government shutdown.

Were these 2 not drug smugglers, in which case Trump killed their innocent companions?

Were if they were drug smugglers AND if it's ok to kill foreigners from the air based on a hunch, then why didn't Trump just have them executed?

This immoral & illegal murdering has to stop.
