I worked for a corp. for almost 40 years as an employee and manager: I am an entrepreneur, an empath, an organizer, an optimist, a coach, a life explorer, dogmatic, disciplined, and a free-minded thinker. Politically I align with democratic values.

Trump is responsible for the shooting of the National Guardsmen in DC. he put them there to distract from the Epstein Files. Another crime to add to the hundreds of others he is guilty of.

In my humble opinion, Trump and his family sell out America every day. I feel my fellow country men and women prefer the wool over our eyes. We prefer one family pillaging America.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.

And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

I feel like, "Why do Trump's doctors keep administering cognitive exams to him?" is a question the media might want to pursue, if for some reason they were inclined to apply the same standards to a Republican politician that they do to Democratic ones.
There is no reason for anyone to be intimidated by this unpopular failing lame duck whose mental and physical health is circling the drain
Four polls in recent days now have Trump in the 30s, with 3 at 35%-36%: 2/
35%-62% (-27) ARG
35%-56% (-21) High Point University
36%-60% (-24) Gallup
38%-57% (-19) Econ/YouGov
Again, Trump just keeps dropping.

I don't think this is a shocking crime. I'm not shocked at all. It's completely expected behavior.

It's heinous, it's horrible, but I'm not shocked.
