How on Earth did Trump get into this mess?
I mean, you'd think he'd know better. He said he asked around and found out that he's the smartest guy he knows!

I truly wish there was a way to create two countries.
One with them, and one with us, we could work out the details without a war I am sure.

California has pockets of extreme rightwing racist assholes just like everywhere else.
We will not survive unless we create two countries. Or too many will suffer and die first.
It could be done.

and you get what we have.

McConnell is so pleased with himself for helping to unleash the present and future chaos on our nation, bragging that the vacant SCOTUS seat helped GOTV among Trump's deplorable base.

(5,494 posts)It's the quiet ones who are intelligent - they're too busy thinking to open their mouths at the speed Trump does. Then, bozos like Trump swoop in and steal the credit.
Anyone who says they "know" everything about something is wrong - they don't know enough about their subject of "expertise" to know what they don't know.
Trump has no thirst for knowledge. He demands everything be spoon-fed to him in simplistic terms. Someone like this can never learn, but only appears intelligent and adept by stealing credit and playing social politics. Trump is a dullard and a fraud.
