Trump: "We were the richest relatively -- think of this -- from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest. Because we collected tariffs ... we had so much wealth. Of course, now we give it away to transgender ... everybody gets a transgender operation."

He’s threatening to fire federal employees who don’t respond to his email by tomorrow. He has already fired employees with impeccable performance reviews. Promotions will be based on responses to his email rather than detailed performance evaluations by their direct supervisor.

imagine what a weak quisling Rubio is that he cannot even explain to Trump that Russia started the war. Think about that. Utterly spineless.

it is honestly kind of striking to me that the founders were basically on target re: “things that could end our republic”
well, the founders’ nightmare of a foreign born subversive with no inherent loyalty to america grabbing power now looks very relevant. however they didn’t predict he would be a dope fiend too
