It’s not just Trump, it’s the GOP, their appointed justices, and it’s their voters (namely their LE wing).
– Putin got his wish in destroying democracy by getting trump in the office in 2016 as the GOP has never been a lover of democracy for decades in the first place.
Nothing decent ever comes out of that asshole looking mouth

No shit Sherlock
What country will have to invade the country formally known as the USA once Trump establishes the next reich? I’m done hoping that he won’t get in. I’m done believing there is enough of a brain trust out there that can combat the extreme right wing. I am done believing that those that support the GOP and its leaders, will ever come to understand why this is dangerous or bad for the people. There will be a majority that will find themselves under the thumb of the new regime, but the regime will blame underground liberals and democrats much like the red scare. Women, LGBTQ, secular or just not Christian believers, and liberal thinking people will become non-citizens based on the rhetoric and plans laid out by the far right.
I say buckle up. It’s not going to be pretty…
RAPISTs can’t be trusted. Trump is a RAPIST. Trump raped E. Jean Carroll and now he is destroying the GOP. How whacked is it that “Christians” and radical Catholics like those on SCOTUS embrace the RAPIST.
Putin expects a return on his investment.
well at almost any point, years ago, they could have charged the guy for any number of crimes and had the trials be over by now..What is ‘poisoning the blood’ of our country a separate set of rules for the wealthy and powerful, than the one everyone else has to operate under.
Certainly not the overpriced rents, overpriced food, overpriced medical care, overpriced education. Certainly not the fact that the center-right establishment is incapable of solving decades old problems. Certainly not blatant corruption by both parties.
Well … that and the three branches all taking turns shielding him from any justice.
I told my uncle this in 2015 and he told me it was “trumps 1st amendment right” to say shit like that.
It’s anyone who decided that, instead of working harder to understand others, they decided “no, fork you. I’m not the problem, everyone else is!”, or “im perfect, you change”. Based on shaken ideologies in-line with the dogma of nazis, borne out of America’s want to pull scientists back from Nazi Germany after WWII, and the increasingly frightening evangelical movement, that so loosely interprets the Bible, that it might as well be a short-story novella – it misses the core concept entirely.
Our system of representation is what is poisoning the blood of the country.
For the most part, poll after poll shows Americans as a people are fine. Unfortunately geography is more important in every branch of government (Senate, Executive through the Electoral College, House through gerrymandering and the fact it hasn’t been expanded in line with population growth, the Judiciary through the lopsided Senate and Executive.)
If we had a strictly majoritarian system with a Bill of Rights for individual liberties we would be fine.
I know, blah blah rural voters would have less power. Which is a good thing, because they are less people. We don’t weight ethnic, religious, or sexual minority voters more to protect their rights. That is what a Bill of Rights is for. This is a nonsense argument.
End rant.
Trump’s just the ugly face of Republican fascism. The whole party is a plague and as long as we’re stuck with them we’ll never make any progress as a society.
No let’s be honest. He’s an idiot with facist ideas. The poison is the traitorous clowns willing to make his stupid ideas real. There’s millions of these vermin who would die for him. They’re the poison he’s the needle. When this is all over remember to shun these people. You have trump parents dump them in a home and forget about them. Block friends and family who supported this bozo. If you’re a business owner reject their applications on the grounds of they can’t be trusted with company confidentiality. Make these people outcast with no support or help.
Well, no shit!!
Just imagine the kids that have to grow up in America today. This shit is normal to them now.
Are liberals so obsessed with Trump because they have nothing better to do with their sad lives or is it because they are that mentally ill? Serious question.
Lack of norms and corrupt paid off judges seem to be pretty poisonous.
Selling fake patriotism and scapegoating is a time honored traditional way to pull nations into fascism.
“Top aides-for Biden layout plans to pause influence peddling scheme after several friendly news outlets grow tired of carrying The baggage. Up to 50million from foreign donors… Ukraine, China, Iran etc may or may not have a president in their pocket… However, 40% of voters say they dont mind as long as Trump doesn’t get elected.”” this is bad folks. .
“I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled,” the screen capture shows. “Tell the director that I would like to resolve this now before it gets out of hand, and now means tonight.” The captured transcript of the call continues:
And, Z, if I get a call or text from anyone involved in this other than you, Zhang, or the chairman, I will make certain that between the man sitting next to me and every person he knows and my ability to forever hold a grudge that you will regret not following my direction. I am sitting here waiting for the call with my father.”
