It’s Just Cancer Being Cancer
All of Trump’s excesses, all of his lies, all of his myriad illegal actions, all of the needless pain, suffering and, yes, deaths…It’s just Trump being Trump, they say, excusing it as though he is a naughty child up to silly pranks.

Could Tom Homan’s bribe bring down the whole regime? Trump is loathe to kick anyone out, and in doing so is implicating himself and much of his team in a coverup. Epstein, Homan, insider trading - etc. How is this being tolerated? NO FUCKING KINGS!
