MAGA (at a glance)

One percent are soulless zillionaires who know better, but happily betray their country’s people and values in the pursuit of even more money.

Ninety-nine percent are unhappy and frustrated Americans who don’t know better... or anything else.

Every once in a while the truth leaks out...

Heads will roll.

…racists, con artists and demagogues.

“All-American Halftime Show” — featuring Kid Rock, Ted Nugent and an autoharp player named Jim.

“He's as stupid as his boss” — I would have thought that impossible.
But I also thought Trump couldn’t possibly win the FIRST time.

Funny, true and pointed. Terrific post.

That’s all we need — a pissing contest between the most insecure, overcompensating males on the planet, nuclear-armed Putin and Trump.

People in the streets. The only power that will save this country.

Strange but true:

Members of the Trump Administration and Jane Goodall are of the same species.

All hail mushroom martyr Brian.

There is ONE fascist playbook— only the names change. Mussolini, Franco, Hitler, Pinochet, Trump.

The press, academia, law enforcement, the judiciary, ALL must be frightened into submission.

Cue: The people.

It is a given that ALL senior members of the Trump Administration will do more damage to his/her institution than has ever been done before.

America is in a fight for its life.

The world has become the proverbial asylum that the psychotics have taken over.

WE NEED TO BE THE ONES WEARING WHITE COATS

A pity that many of our species are Bondi-level defensive, dishonest and miserable. A tragedy when they lead the most powerful nation on the planet.

A very high hate-to-body ratio.

Russ Buchanan @russbuchanan.bsky.social · 5d

The only comforting aspect of the Trump nightmare is a small bit of revenge in knowing the miserable prick has to live with himself 24/7.

The guy has no humor, no real friends — he’s a humanity-free zone.

When Mr. Trump claims he’s “ended all wars” it can only mean the world is on fire.

Toss in the facts that she’s young, female and fearless, and Ms. Thunberg is the bogeyman of bogeymen to the right.

Call it OAC Syndrome.

Mr. Trump has officially crossed over into “Out of his fucking mind” territory.

Russ Buchanan @russbuchanan.bsky.social · 6d

Yeah, the “Deal Maker” strikes again: Putin gets America’s arsenal AND Ukraine.

If this image comes anywhere near my dreams tonight… it’s your fault.

Next time we have a chance to vote for an obviously power-mad fascist who displays every single character defect we try to keep out of our kids... let’s not.

An aesthetically-challenged asshole.

Russ Buchanan @russbuchanan.bsky.social · 7d

When enough citizens stop caring about current events, stop learning and stop taking responsibility for their country...

Next thing you know, the country belongs to a few men whose passion in life is the accumulation of money and power.

The country’s most selfish and incredibly boring people.
