Someone just read Project 2025 to this cat.
The thing about the Trumpstein files, the rest of the world already knows Trump is a pædo. So do many of us.

What we do about it is how history is really going to judge us.

If we let any of them off, then we have truly slipped from a democracy to a religious/tech oligarchy.

You ever have a day where you are standing in the cold waiting for your dog to go because his farts have stunk up the house so bad that you swear he has the cannon in firing position?

Then you realize, I am glad that I do not have to worry that my name will show up in the Epstein files.

Trump pushing a 50 year mortage is him saying that people should buy their house rent-a-center style.

Like this $1200 couch? How about paying $4000 for it?

Like this $200k house? Only pay $900k for it so my buddies can get rich.
Trump Defends 50-Year Mortgage Plan, Calling it ‘Not a Big Deal’
President Trump in an interview broadcast late Monday dismissed concerns from his base over his administration’s planned 50-year mortgage proposal. “It’s not even a big deal,” Trump told Fox News’s L...

The dum-dum-in-cheif just told a group of veterans that he hopes we have more wars so we can have more "victory days."
What a monumental Idiot we have for a President.

He's losing it more and more as each day goes by and nobody that counts is saying anything about it.

I realize too often that my eyesight has left many of my comments made without cheater glasses looking like I wrote them from deep in my cups.

I suppose both can be true.

So a drag queen reading "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" is corrupting kids, but being forced to display the 10 Comandments and explain to first graders what "adultry" and "coveting your neighbors wife" mean does not?

You've got to hand it to Bone Spurs... the spotlight fell off him, he had a quiet temper tantrum, and got it back on him.

Not that it was difficult to get people to not care about a pharmaceutical exec, but I have no idea if this guy is alive, in repair, or what.

Yes! Being poor is not a character flaw. More likely it is a sign that your ancestors were kinder than those who became generationally rich.

There is a character flaw with a person who will watch people starve so he can gain more. Ugly in every way.

Never underestimate the beauty of kindeness.
Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Nobody would be surprised that Trump would so this. From the symbolism of a system rigged for him to the obstruction of "LIBERTY," there is nothing about this that doesn't reek Trump's self-important autodefication.

The largest NFL contract is Mahomes with $450 million over 10 years. Just with that, he is closer to having nothing than he is to being a billionaire.

Trump, 79, having just awakened from a deep-sleep nap, stands awaiting his afternoon applesauce.

Advisors put his ground-up head meds in it. He doesn't know, but we can put it here since he doesn't read.

After Trump was told the sandwich guy was set free, he fell into a cataleptic state. His last words before the silence: "Why didn't anyone tell me we had a guy made of sandwich?"
