Now I understand why people say "NO DMs"

As Donald Trump goes on a spree to plaster his name on everything, let's not forget how the Third Reich fell far short of its 1000 year projection and in what ignominious fashion

Here's another reason to be grateful to Joe Biden:

America never would have survived 2 consecutive Donald Trump terms as POTUS

It's only a matter of time before Trump has the Nobel Peace Prize renamed "The Donald Trump Nobel Peace Prize," and convinces the award committee there's no quicker way to peace than to coerce nations to become submissive

Although Trump already has the FIFA Peace Prize.

Who needs more?

Personally, I think #Bulimia should be renamed "Trump," because he gives us all a new reason to puke each and every day

How are some not revulsed about renaming the Institute of Peace & Kennedy Center?

This is not normal in a democracy

It's what despots do to obscure their illegitimacy & unpopularity.

They plaster their name & image everywhere

It never works out well

Today would be my mother‘s 100th birthday

She survived Auschwitz & crossed Hungary's landmined border to flee communism

Having lost her family in the Holocaust she’d love to know of her 8 great-grandchildren, but so saddened by what Trump brought to the USA she loved, including normalizing hatred

REMINDER TO PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES JOURNALISTS:

The Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) was amended by the GOP under Trump 45. Eliminating the individual mandate was like drilling a hole in your car’s gas tank. They own this.

Omitting this fact when reporting/interviewing is malpractice, IMO.

What an unmitigated disaster

Who outside of America isn’t laughing at the United States after listening to this maniac rant?

it’s not very reassuring when the email address to report phishing scams using a Social Security internet address and look-alike website come back as undeliverable

I learned of Trump’s statement regarding the tragic murder of Rob & Michelle Reiner

What the fuck is wrong with him?

When you think Trump can't possibly plumb the depths of indecency deeper he dives further

What a truly horrible person

Our shining city on top of the hill is in smoldering ruin

Remember all the enablers of this heinous operation.
Armed ICE agents trapped US citizens in a restaurant and demanded their papers. Federal agents walked into East African restaurants in Cedar-Riverside, MN. They closed and blocked the doors. Then they demanded to see everyone’s papers. Every person present was a US citizen.

My parents arrived as political refugees in 1957, knowing the US as "the land of the free"

Believing that and never having seen a black person, they'd have been confused how segregation could exist

They sure as hell would be confused about the US in 2025

As Donald Trump steps up pressure to have CNN sold in an attempt to shut down their voice, they should plaster social media with a clip of the @erinburnett.bsky.social interview with Colorado Secretary of State @jenagriswold.bsky.social

Jena Griswold said it all more clearly than anyone I've heard

Another feather in Trump's cap as the world's best dealmaker

How incompetent can he be in his personal, professional & political lives & still have people eager to give it all up for him?

Bennie Thompson on Noem: "Her arrival was short lived. She left in the middle of the hearing ostensibly to go to another meeting. We found that the meeting had been canceled, so she could've stayed. But nonetheless, we're not surprised, because this is who she is."

Surly, there have to be some Trump supporters who are wondering how he could possibly say both of these in span of less than 24 hours:

1. The whole affordability issue is a hoax; and

2. My greatest priority as President is to make America affordable again
December 10, 2025 at 6:23 PM
@andrewrsorkin.bsky.social It wouldn't "feel new" if you thought of Trump‘s actions in the context of what a Mafia Don would be doing.

In addition to blessing the union of competitors, he’s taking his cut of deals & of any business generated

How far behind could protection shakedown possibly be?
December 10, 2025 at 12:59 PM
As each and every "deal" becomes known, is it possible to look at this classic Simpsons script and not think that it describes Donald Trump perfectly?
December 9, 2025 at 6:33 PM
How do some SCOTUS Justices not see that every decision strengthening unchecked Executive power & authority also ultimately leads to abridging of their own role as a co-equal branch of American government?

Do they really believe Trump respects the role of the Supreme Court in protecting democracy?
December 8, 2025 at 6:39 PM
Is there any aspect of American life, American achievement or American culture that Donald Trump has not sent spiraling backwards?

What Trump achievement will objective historians recognize as having propelled America forward to either secure or create a leading world position?
