taunting, insulting, mocking, acting like an ass.

him the bird. In the Con's case people are lining streets to show him their contempt. That must humiliate him i'm sure.

It's just not something that was covered a lot. Michael Moore had footage of people egging FWB"s car and such in Fahrenheit 9/11.

think he’s “‘number 1” with their own hands.....truly touching. Many years ago, sitting at an intersection in Clear Lake, TX, as his motorcade went by, I had the privilege of telling Shrub he was my “number one”. It still ranks up there as one of my favorite moments in my 58 years on earth.

There is a genuine terror on his face, and he looks like he's aged ten years overnight.

Be afraid, donald. The New York STATE prosecutors are waiting for you. You won’t be able to make some deal with Pence for you to quit early and have him succeed you so you can get a fast pardon to make it all go away.

A poor nation squandering its resources to build an ugly urban monument to a feared dictator. Ceausescu truly believed he’d be cheered for doing it. What he never took into account is the difference between what he went home to every night and what the rest of the people went home to every night.

from the same people who got off on calling us condescending names like "snowflake" and "buttercup" and who wore those cheap T-shirts that said "Fuck your feelings".... I've already seen postings on FB from Trumpists whining about the "supposedly tolerant left". Well, take a look at the last four years and then take a look in the mirror!

...on two grizzled guys on the far side of middle age at the RNC in 2015 was such a direct parallel to the John Birch/Barry Goldwater slogan “I’d rather be dead than Red” that it was a real jolt.

Were they old enough to directly remember those events, how agitated their parents/older brothers were by the Commie threat? Were they Goldwater fans in high school themselves, or just a few years too young? They certainly looked like retirees. Just how far down the RW rabbit-hole do you have to fall to imagine this is a clever way to pwn the libs? When the hell did this become a thing? Were these guys some kind of Russian plant? That last bit was because even then we knew that Trump’s campaign was crawling with Russians.

From there it was just a short step to T-shirts proclaiming “Fck your Feelings.”

The “I’d rather be ...” T-shirt was, in its own loopy and hateful way, an image far worse than the guy from the Bush years with the mullet and the homemade “Get a Brain, Morans” sign. At least I had no doubt he was an all-American yokel.

So, yeah, now someone on the far side of reality wants us to remember we are squishy snowflakes and spare their fee-fees and forget that the side they are on has morphed into a death cult.

Uh, no. Personally, I think the two images I described belong in the meme-file where they can be produced any time as a reminder of what Trump unleashed.

Meanwhile, we’ll do what we always do and try to make sure they have affordable healthcare and housing along with the rest of us.
