    From throwing up to laughing hysterically as Trump openly lies to the very same Christian zealots supporting him. Hilarious.

    I caught a couple of minutes of the end of a TRump rally on the TV.
    The sound track was YMCA by the Village people
    ok
    so I mentioned this to my yellow dog democrat spouse, and she said
    "I thought that the trump/whitehouse people were anti-gay".

    and, so...........................................................................? whither hence?

    Anti gay? Trump is dancing on the graves of over 215,00o people who died as a result of his incompetence.

    Did you not see that one coming?

    If, for instance, journalist Aaron Rupar↱ observes, "Donald Trump Jr is now accusing Hunter Biden (without evidence) of being link to 'human trafficking and prostitution rings'", as Ghislane Maxell's deposition from 2016, unsealed, mentions Mar-A-Lago at least nineteen times, the episode serves for us a purpose of reminding the nearly pinpoint accuracy of Trump administration tells. There's even a bit emerging this week about Trump's Chinese bank account↱, which is another example of Trump projecting himself onto his opponents.

    As such, Trump dancing to The Village People while on a dexamethasone high, vis à vis the point of his administration being anti-gay, is pretty much precisely on point. These are the kind of people they are. That whole contrarian antisociality is really popular among his supporters. This is what they voted for.

    I've been thinking, recently, of a 2017 Matt Bors cartoon—

    —and it's true that nobody was expecting a Covid year, but even back then, Republicans would have cried foul if we predicted this kind of government response; it's not, as the parlance goes, a "failure" of government, but an infliction. Dancing to a queer anthem was just icing on the plague; this is what it takes so they can own the libs.

    Just thoughts:
    For some reason the two words "Suicidal Bullying"come to mind.... perhaps it has something to do with what I ate..
    ====
    I think Trumps connection to organized and paid for pedophilia or at least ephebophilia and Epstein has yet to be fully revealed. What we have seen so far could be only the tip of the "executive" iceberg which is probably why Epstein is no longer with us. Too many big names involved and too much money at risk.... but Epstein/Maxwell was/are no fool so there may be much more evidence to come...especially once Trump's guilty involvement doesn't pose a serious national security risk and he is no longer POTUS.
    =====
    Trumps tactic of projecting onto others his crimes (guilt) in an attempt to deflect attention whilst gaining attention, is pretty typical of his character (sociopath) type.
    Sooo... if I was in charge of law Enforcement I would be looking in to Trumps son's dealings using Trump's attack on someone else's son (Biden) as an insightful reflection.
    =====
    Insider trading taken to one hell of an extreme... should see Trump and family(**) go away for a long time once he can be charged. (no longer POTUS)
    =====
    (**) Signing a paid for NDA that deliberately obstructs justice can't help you in a criminal court? can it?
    The NDA doesn't absolve you of a crime... sort of thingo..??

    There must be literally hundreds of potential whistle blowers out there just waiting for the right opportunity and protection.

    What a difference 4 years can make. The founders were so right in their warnings about the frailty of maintaining freedom and equality.

    Strong Warnings from the Founders

    The Warnings of George Washington
    He said: "They serve to organize factions ... to put in the place of the delegated will of the nation the will of a party, often a small but artful and enterprising minority.... "Let me ... warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party...."
    He said: "It is important ... that ... those entrusted with its administration ... confine themselves within their respective constitutional spheres, avoiding in the exercise of the powers of one department any encroachment upon another.... The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all the departments in one, and thus to create ... a real despotism."

    and much more....................

    What was the truth about the madness of George III?

    Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!



    George III is well known in children's history books for being the "mad king who lost America".

    We now have our own "mad King who is destroying America"

    Are you complicit to yet another Trump administrations atrocity? It has been reported there are still 545 children who were taken away from their parents at the border who still have not found their parents, and probably never will.

    Is this the administration you want back in office? Are you a willing person to embrace this crime?

    They are "anti-gay".

    They are also dumb as rocks and that is why they play that song, and Macho Man (which is also played expensively by his campaign because they stupidly believe it represents Trump as a "macho man" - which is why he gyrates around to it and punches the air) at his rallies.

    Over 200,000 dead and he's dancing to YMCA and Macho Man.. Let's focus on anti-gay for now and ignore the rest...

    Own those deaths and own his dancing over their deaths. That's what you voted for.

    Change the requirements for President and get rid of the Electoral College so that right wing-nuts can't steal a Presidency and fill it with someone like Trump. It's a start.

    Here's the thing, we have yet to find out the big picture regarding the damage Trump has done so far, which should all start coming out in the wash once he's gone. When this farce does come to light in it's entirety, please don't forget, Mr./Mrs. Trump Supporter, you will be remembered throughout history for supporting this monster. It's not too late to change your mind and vote him out or be remembered in the history books.

    OK Soap Opera question:

    If Biden wins, Trump doesn't concede, the military is went in to remove Trump, would the FBI, Secret Service, Police Force even attempt to do anything?

    Question is if the military can legally remove the Commander in Chief without a Supreme Court order. That's why Trump desperately wants to stack the Court with his judges.
