This horror will get worse. This is Trump’s fascism on steroids. Horrific and indefensible.

I seem to recall that the last time WMD was deployed as an excuse to attack, that did not end well.
Seriously. Angry old men with amnesia and playing with other people's lives is not helpful nor conducive to peace.

He’s got away with untold crimes, lies & offences. He’s achieved the highest office in the land. Twice. He’s lining his pockets on an industrial scale & persecuting his enemies for fun. But he’s still a miserable, bitter, humourless & furious man. Because deep inside, he knows *exactly* who he is.

Put aside the lies and the open defiance of the Supreme Court, as well as the cruelty, and ask yourself: who talks like this? This is the *official* account of the *White House* - is it being run by a six year old?
