She would be crying and screaming. Children seem to have an innate ability to know who to trust. God I miss Obama every day.

We are going to have another 17 months of this orange baboon and his Slovenian sex worker awfulness. Can we withstand it? Or maybe we should be in the streets protesting.

I think the filthy rich have turned against him to (despite having supported the fat ignoramus). They probably won't fight us too badly.

the intelligence, class, diplomacy, manners, family values, dignity. All went out the door when the orange ignoramous entered. Stipid man, and we have a former "escort/nude model" for a first lady. Epstein introduced tRump to her. Was she an Epstein castoff, I wonder? Used up, no longer a money maker.

"No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love. For love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite." - Nelson Mandela

That trump is in reality a true Manchurian candidate.
I believe he has undergone mental conditioning on one or more of his trips to Moscow and he is in fact acting directly (at least 50% of the time) in Putin's favor.
The rest of the time he is a big league grifter/con man.
For more a more complete view of the long con, check out the Soprano's episode "Bust Out".

A signal feature of right-wing ideology is an indifference to what people in other countries think of us.

The same is not true for me and many of our fellow liberals. What other countries think of us does matter.

It was so wonderful having him as President...
