A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power.
Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ).
Isn’t this a cover-up?

Between this and his West Point address, it’s pretty clear Donald Trump isn’t concerned with the troops and is just in it for himself. No mention of the fallen soldiers from our Commander in Chief.
If Joe Biden posted this Memorial Day message, the mainstream media and Republicans would say he is completely unfit to serve, with many calling for the invocation of the 25th Amendment.
Because it's Trump, everyone remains silent.

I’m so tired of this ‘mandate’ BS and ‘the American people said…’ nonsense.
Trump didn’t win a majority of the popular vote, and beat Harris by one of the smallest popular vote margins (1.5%) in US history. If you factor in turnout, he got the votes of less than 1 in 3 eligible voters in the US.
