I bet my neighbour’s house Trump has never used the word ‘verisimilitude.’
Oh, scratch that, someone else already commandeered it.

Spasming.
Those are spasms.
Although my spellcheck wanted spawning, so now I’m torn.

How did they get him in to bed to stop him from spewing lies for a couple of hours? That’s the secret…

Sure. When he decides to annex Greenland (because European leaders have told him he shouldn’t) I’m heading straight for Louisiana. It’ll be the party to end all parties. The “What Is Greenland?” Fais-do-do and the “Where is Greenland?” Mardi Gras. Get ready Louisiana - your golden age is here!

Well, I’m sure that European leaders clubbing together and telling him he can’t take Greenland won’t trigger his infantile oppositional defiance one little bit.

It’s possible to argue that certain members of the party and admin., the weak and malleable Rubio and Graham types, have been corrupted by this president. Others, like Hegseth and Kennedy, are dopes and loons. But the likes of Bondi and Miller have been waiting for this. They are exactly what we see

I notice he keeps bringing up Ukraine in the context of Venezuela. As if to say “that’s how you illegally invade another country, Vlad.” This is in part just a pissing contest to him. He talks about violence and blood-letting like it’s Broadway. “Nobody can do it like we can do it…”
He is ill.

The US is in a state of arrested development, stuck in its spoilt, attention-seeking, know-it-all, clique-ridden years.
New Year’s resolution USA? Grow up. The 1st Amendment is not a moral truancy note, nor the 2nd a penis extension. And you don’t take other people’s stuff just because you can.

He thinks it’s the equivalent of defending your PhD thesis, which belief obviates the need for the test in the first place.

I thought that life couldn’t get any better when he signed the EO outlawing the Biden-era moratorium on saying ‘good morning,’ but this…oh my!

It is just so singularly strange how desperately he wants the populations which didn’t vote for him to be suffering, to the extent that he posts AI generated images of his disturbing fantasies. He simply cannot bear rejection and must be everybody’s deliverance even if he has to destroy them first.

His two methods for brokering peace are violence and racketeering. Not really what the Nobel panel’s criteria are, I suspect. I mean, the laughable part is that he has actually tried to bully the Nobel committee into giving him a prize for peace. Fantastically ironic
