There he goes again. He tweeted about all the "illegal" voters in Texas last week.

He will have to be REMOVED from office. He will not give it up, even if he loses the election.

to that Trump town in Costa Rica. I'm sure some of them speak English and can tell their stories, and maybe even reveal some juicy secrets about the patrons of Trump properties.

But hopefully his base is shrinking. I think taxes will hit a lot of people very hard and they'll get hit again before the election in 2020.

about Drumpf's base long ago, though it will shrink as the evidence of his many crimes comes out. Much of Tricky Dick Nixon's base stayed loyal to him too, even after he had to resign in disgrace. I'm past the point of giving a rat's ass what they think--the only ones who seem to give a shit are the MSM.

A little at a time, his team will be "gotten" His favorite lawyer, has already been "gotten." And so it is, and will be. You are right, he is "the grotesque fool." All of his "illegal chicanery" will be revealed not just by the Dems, but Mueller too. The "Hurricane 5" is about to hit, and Mr. Trump doesn't even know what a "hurricane" is..

He really believes 5 million people voted illegally in California because they give aliens drivers license. When I pointed out to him California only had 600,000 aliens with drivers license in 2015 he wanted to know the source when I gave him the link to the LA Times article and just like clock work he said you believe the LA Times? These people are completely brainwashed.

After all your abusive and illegal actions over the years, Kharma is going to work it all out for ya. I think orange is a great color for your future apparel. It will blend well with your skin tone. Although in prison, I guess you'll just be back to pasty white and a prison haircut! Still works for me.

He thinks anyone who criticizes him or one of his sycophantic minions is vicious. Actual vicious treatment is Republicans forcing Hillary Clinton through an 11-hour hearing on a topic that had already been beaten to death. She came through with flying colors; poor Donnie would have melted into a pool on the floor and dissolved into one temper tantrum after another. He can only work a couple of hours a day. An eleven-hour hearing would be far beyond him.

From day one they went after president Obama, and they never stopped. Does trump really think this stupid line is going to work for him?
