Of the number of statements made by Trump that should warrant grave concern and rebuke, this one may be the most striking.

“I was saved by god to make America great again.”

The media and most politicians have entered an era of compliant darkness. We would be foolish to look to them for help.

"Patriotism is devotion to one’s country. These people, virtually an entire political party, have been devoted NOT to the country they profess to love, but to their mob boss leader... There’s not a single patriot in this image. Just cowards, toadies and fools."
I can’t get over the shortsightedness of today’s Republicans. One day, hopefully very soon, Donald Trump will be pushing up daisies. Then, as is always the case, historians will begin their autopsy of his tenure. Only in this case, perhaps more than at any time in history, historians will also begin their dissection of not only the man’s corruption and myriad blunders, but of those who empowered him. Historians, moms and dads, boys and girls, butchers, bakers, candlestick makers of the future will scroll down the list of all of his more notorious outrages, beginning with the New York Central Park Five case, through the Access Hollywood tape, up to yesterday’s social media post about Rob Reiner, and on through whatever idiocy he’ll commit during however much time he has left. And they’ll have questions: Little Susie Smith, somewhere in the Heartland, 2045: “Is it true that he was a racist?” Mrs. Smith: “Yes sweetheart, it’s true.” “And he was a sexist too?” “Yes dear.” “And he used the Oval Office to sell his stuff?” “Yes. It’s true.” “And no one told him to stop?” “Yes, darling.” “Why not?” “Because they were afraid to. So he just got worse and worse, and the whole world suffered.” A President’s actions form his/her legacy. What’s different about this presidency, is that due to their hyper-sycophancy, today’s Republicans are destined to share that legacy with him. For the likes of Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz and his current Cabinet especially, future historians are going to be BRUTAL. But they’re not concerned with that. I don’t think they’re considering their legacies at all. All that matters to them is the here and now: What do I have to do to keep this cushy job while avoiding getting on the boss’s bad side? “There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain.” ~ Liz Cheney, June 9th, 2022 Patriotism is devotion to one’s country. These people, virtually an entire political party, have been devoted NOT to the country they profess to love, but to their mob boss leader. Who, through the deft management of their fears and cowardice, is getting away with murder. Literally. There’s not a single patriot in this image. Just cowards, toadies and fools. I SO look forward to rubbing his legacy—and theirs—in their faces.

If the Chicago Cubs trade Hoerner, who is easily their best player...after 50+ years as a fan, I am done.

Their multi-decade rebuild plans are basically a middle finger to their loyal fan base.

Let’s face it. That people chose a man with no morals, ethics, values or decency over a highly qualified woman (twice) is what destroyed the White House.

We could rebuild the East Wing, the Rose Garden and purge all his gaudy ornaments…but the stench of Donald Trump will persist for generations.

Folks, this is how the “President” of our country comments on the death of a beloved Hollywood icon. 🤬 why is this POS allowed to stay in the WH?? He is one sick POS!

WH press corps...never.

Why can you not act presidential?

Huh?

Some people say your mental decline is the reason, while many others say you are just an evil person. Which is it?

Where are you from?

America.

While his loyalists and idolaters pretend otherwise, and the news media will avoid addressing it, all normal decent people know there is something irredeemably and inexcusably wrong with Donald Trump.

America has never been exposed to a more psychologically broken public figure with so much power.

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.
There has never been a President that has worked as hard as me! My hours are the longest, and my results are among the best. I’ve stopped Eight Wars, saving many millions of lives in the process, created the Greatest Economy in the History of our Country, brought Business back into the United States at levels never seen before, rebuilt our Military, created the Largest Tax Cuts and Regulation Cuts, EVER, closed our open and very dangerous Southern Border, when previous Administrations were unable to do so, and created an “aura” around the United States of America that has led every Country in the World to respect us more than ever before. In addition to all of that, I go out of my way to do long, thorough, and very boring Medical Examinations at the Great Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, seen and supervised by top doctors, all of whom have given me PERFECT Marks — Some have even said they have never seen such Strong Results. I do these Tests because I owe it to our Country. In addition to the Medical, I have done something that no other President has done, on three separate occasions, the last one being recently, by taking what is known as a Cognitive Examination, something which few people would be able to do very well, including those working at The New York Times, and I ACED all three of them in front of large numbers of doctors and experts, most of whom I do not know. I have been told that few people have been able to “ace” this Examination and, in fact, most do very poorly, which is why many other Presidents have decided not to take it at all. Despite all of this, the time and work involved, The New York Times, and some others, like to pretend that I am “slowing up,” am maybe not as sharp as I once was, or am in poor physical health, knowing that it is not true, and knowing that I work very hard, probably harder than I have ever worked before. I will know when I am “slowing up,” but it’s not now! After all of the work I have done with Medical Exams, Cognitive Exams, and everything else, I actually believe it’s seditious, perhaps even treasonous, for The New York Times, and others, to consistently do FAKE reports in order to libel and demean “THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.” They are true Enemies of the People, and we should do something about it. They have inaccurately reported on all of my Election Results and, in fact, were forced to apologize on much of what they wrote. The best thing that could happen to this Country would be if The New York Times would cease publication because they are a horrible, biased, and untruthful “source” of information. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

The idea that the US Constitution vests nearly absolute power in one person, in part because presidential elections are the main way govt is accountable to the people, is so crazy, illogical, ahistorical it shouldn’t need rebutting.

But here we are, and @donmoyn.bsky.social explains why it’s wrong.

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved.

Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy.

It is really, really hard to get your head around the raw hubris of the majority. They really will be destabilizing the operating structure of the entire U.S. government. Why? Because they believe they have a better idea about how the past century should've been done.

Most of the 'experts' and 'media' are servile morons unwilling to acknowledge the mendaciousness of the Trump regime, all but negating what little credibility they had.

Not only will the federal government need to resurrect itself when this is over, the professional commentators will as well.

Marjorie Taylor Greene is a low intellect, backwoods brat who used every angle to promote herself into MAGA acceptance.

Now that her idol has banned her from its existence, she is trying to enter normalcy, despite her continued uncontrollable obnoxiousness.

Her vileness has come home to roost.
