Donald Trump is a dinosaur. And his cultists are part of a dying breed. Yes, they are having their moment in power. But the world is changing and their white supremacy vision will not endure.

The entire White House press corps is built around the premise that what the President and his spokespeople say is real-world news, not complete fantasy.
The premise has become fatally flawed.

All Squealer does is lie, lie, lie...
Of course, normal handshakes don't involve the back of your hand in any way, shape, or form, so this is an obvious lie even by Trumpian standards.
What health issue does Trump have that the White House is so desperate to cover up?

I hope people understand that if Trump gets his way America will soon be part of the global axis of evil if we aren't already. You see it in the Caribbean, you see it in Ukraine, and you see it with Trump trying to buddy up to Xi. We are a malevolent force.
