How much more of this do we have to put up with? I was so optimistic at first when he lost, but now I realize that we have two more months with this deranged clown and he will do anything to turn over the election results in his favor and drive us all mad in the process.

Not only are our holidays going to be spoiled by the pandemic, but he is going to make them as miserable as possible by stirring up as much BS as he can between now and January. I can't even say what I want to say becuse I would get banned for life, but let's just say it would result in a happy ending for all us Democrats. I am so over his bullshit.

Thanks for posting, Rhiannon!

How anyone can possibly ignore or be unaware of what's happening now is unbelievable to me. Yes, Trump lost decisively, but that this many people actually voted for him, wanted more of this, completely boggles the mind!

And you're absolutely right, that it's not over, that we still have more of this - which is getting worse by the day - is terrifying! I finished Mary Trump's book today (drove to a dentist appointment in Albany and listen to the audio book in my car) and she is so absolutely spot on - that his enablers are using Trump's incompetence to their advantage, but he is so clueless, he has no idea. We need to get rid of the whole lot of them - not only Trump!

It gave so much insight into the psyche of that monster and how he was created (although I think he was actually born bad, but just made worse by his family). I have seen so many of her interviews and it is chilling to hear her describe him and what she thinks he will do between now and when he finally leaves office. There has got to be some way to neutralize him.

This lame duck period is far too long. I don't think the founders could have ever imagined such a person when they were laying down the rules for our republic. There is way too much time allowed for him to do irreparable damage. He needs to be stopped by any means possible. A strait jacket and a padded cell would be a good start.

That someone who is so obviously incompetent and with such outrageously dangerous ideas could possibly find his way to the top office. Something needs to change, but the Republicans are using Trump to their advantage and vice versa, a toxic combination.

And I sure agree with you about Mary Trump, she absolutely nails it on so many levels, and, having a front row seat on the family and the history, she is in a position to know. That family, led by an autocrat who was incapable of nurturing his children, warped them all irreparably, but especially his second son - since the first son was incapable of filling the unsavory role created for him.

That Trump hasn't been removed by now - when he should have been in January - says that everything needs to change in this country. That Trump still has supporters is pretty frightening and his enablers need to be removed as well.

I remember back in 2008 when I saw all the Democratic hopefuls gathered on that stage and I couldn't help wondering, after all that had gone on, who could possibly want the job now?? But we had no idea what as to come, how much catastrophically worse it could get! I don't envy Joe Biden, he's confronting the most dangerous time in our history and is faced with the job of changing everything! I do think, with his years of experience, his knowledge of how things work and knowing the best and most experienced people to put in place and to call on - that he's the right one for the job, but it's going to be one long tough road.
