It's actually not surprising that a guy who plays golf by dropping his ball wherever he wants it to be and has claimed he owes no federal income tax would not put any spin on the coin

Remember when we were not losing jobs in droves, or at odds with all our allies, or attacking other nations for their resources, or deploying masked thugs to terrorize our citizens, or pardoning drug traffickers and violent criminals in exchange for bribes?
It was only little over a year ago.

A study found that Donald Trump is the 6th most hated leader in history of any country, dead or alive.

Come to Trump's America...If You Dare
The Trump regime is pushing a paranoid new policy that will further discourage international travelers. The reputation of America's aggression is growing.

Sorry to see Brian O'Connor leave UVA for Mississippi State. The lure of the SEC, a baseball stadium well over twice the size of Disharoon Park, one of the best practice facilities in the NCAA and a consistently ranked program proved too much to resist. No word on salary/perks as yet.

A man who holds the title of President of the United States, who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution, who then says he doesn’t know if he’d uphold the Constitution, is unfit to be president and should be removed.

Voters in U.S. Rep. Mike Lawler’s suburban New York swing district unloaded a barrage of criticism on the Republican during a raucous town hall Sunday, peppering him with questions around Trump’s agenda before devolving into a chaotic chorus of boos as attendees were removed by law enforcement.

This is kinda hilarious: Trump officials are stocking up on toilet paper and food in anticipation of shortages caused by Trump’s own trade wars.
I only wish they’d tell their boss about their newfound hoarding instead of only leaking to @swin24.bsky.social www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

And those are the idiots who would follow Trump off the cliff.
Only 35% of Americans think the country is heading in the right direction.
Rough numbers for an early presidential term.

It’s still hard to believe the simple fact that this is all self-imposed. Everything that’s happening right now wasn’t the result of some foreign adversary destroying the country. We did this all to ourselves by electing the dumbest motherfucker to ever rule a nation.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory.
Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.
