WE’RE NOT HIS FELLOW AMERICAN CITIZENS. He’s as American as Putin! Look at what he values! Does he value our rights & freedoms? Does he value our rule of law? Does he value our Constitution? Does he value our vets & our active military? Does he value our diversity? Or does he value what Putin does?

If you are wearing a mask and disrupting a funeral you are not on the side of the right and the good. How about we just let people live (and grieve) in peace.

“Koch-backed?” Interesting! We hear far too little about the strident 50 year effort by the Kochs to dismantle our Democracy. They ARE The Heritage Foundation! It’s infuriating that presidential administrations, coming & going in the last 5 decades, didn’t stop them. Were they all on ‘the take?’

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.

Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device.

Given the severity of Trump’s Malignant Narcissism, there’s no amount of narcissistic supply that could ever fill his perpetually leaking, empty well. We’d all be slightly better off if there were. Perhaps we’d have a little more respite in between his impulsively destructive episodes.
