Donald Trump values loyalty and he has been loyal to Vladimir Putin until the very end.

It began with his communications with Russian officials before he was even sworn into office.

He resisted signing any sanctions against Russia for interfering with our elections.

He wrote love letters and embraced every tin-horn dictator in the world, even as he stabbed our allies in the back.

He wanted the US to withdraw from NATO and bad-mouthed all the leaders that had been our allies for the last 75 years.

He withdrew from almost all our treaties around the world. Just yesterday, he withdrew from the Open Skies Treaty. He withdrew from Syria and wants to withdraw from Afghanistan, all for the benefit of Russia.

He has taken a sledgehammer to our laws and institutions and has deeply wounded our democracy.

Now, as the people have rejected him, he is in the process of destroying the most sacred part of our democracy, the right to vote and to have it counted.

He has been loyal to Vladimir Putin until the very end.

The true colors of Mitch McConnell.

He is putting his own lust for power over the survival of our democracy.

As the wanna-be dictator continues his assault on our elections and our institutions, Mitch McConnell wants to delay making any decisions until the Georgia run-off elections are over on January 5th of next year. He is willing to gamble the fate of everyone just so he can keep his Senate majority, or so he believes.

It is despicable.

It makes me very sad that my home state of Kentucky saw fit to send that reprobate back to the Senate. His legacy will not be about the number of judges he got appointed, as he thinks. It will be how he was complicit and how he assisted Donald Trump in his efforts to overturn an election in an illegal coup.

How can anyone let this slide?

The threats, the anxiety, the stress, the fears, the deaths?

Everyone that is complicit in this crime against our nation must be held accountable.

We cannot sweep it under the rug and forget about.

It must be pursued.

Some should go to jail.

Trump wants to lead the Republican Party from exile.

He wants to continue to play the President.

He wants to keep tweeting and vilifying everyone that disagrees with him. He wants to continue his destructive ways.

How long before the Republicans throw him from the train?

Perhaps he thinks it gives him some sort of cover from the law if he pretends to be the President in exile?

Republicans that are looking to run for the Presidency will not take kindly to him running the show from Mar-a- Lago or Trump Tower or Moscow, or wherever.

There will likely be a terrible blood-letting in the Republican Party?

Perhaps it has already started?

Trump's argument if he gets to the Supreme Court.

"I expected to get Alito and Thomas' vote, and since I gave Kavanaugh and Gorsuch a lifetime position, and then hired on Amy Coney Barrett for the job of her life, how could they ever vote against me?"

He expects them to show complete loyalty and appreciation.

If even one of them votes against him, they will be forever on his shitlist and will receive numerous threats from his supporters.

How could they!

Trump is not asking for much.

He just wants people to tell him that he won. That he's a winner. That if Joe Biden had more votes, it is because Biden committed fraud and cheated Trump out of what is rightfully his.

He doesn't want much. He just wants people to agree with his fantasies. He wants to set the stage whereby he can make a comeback and get revenge against those that cheated him out of the White House.

All that people have to do is believe. Disregard the numbers and the facts. They are created by the "fake news" to confuse folks and to spite Donald J Trump.

Humor him. Go along with his insanity. Don't stick a pin in his bubble.

The Cult has jumped the shark.

They cannot believe that Trump lost.

It was ordained by God. All of their favorite Evangelicals made public statements that Trump was going to win. They were so certain of it.

But he lost. God sure works in mysterious ways, they must be thinking?

Why would He want those child-molesting cannibals to win?

The only logical answer for them is that it was stolen.

First of all, it is the utmost arrogance to assume that God wants your candidate to win.

They have lost their marbles.

A Test for Trumpers

True or False?

November 22, 2020

Should Donald Trump be addressed as "Mr President"?

Is the White House a symbol for the People?

King Donald?

Why does he continue to erode our democracy, every time he states that the election is "rigged" or that there is "election fraud"?

He is now saying that he won in a landslide. At last count, he had lost the election by over 6 million votes.

Is he playing with all his marbles?

Should Republicans address this problem?

Should Democrats speak out more? Or would it just fan the flames?

November 21, 2020

He who hesitates is lost.

That's all I have to say.

Caution in the face of such adversity is cowardice.
