One thing, of many, that Trump and the entire Republican party and their supporters lack is *dignity*. They have none. They are an embarrassment to the human race.

Trump: "We've gonna shove it up their ass ... They are a bunch of dumb son of a bitches" Remember when presidents had dignity? Here's a lowlight supercut from Trump's rally tonight in Ohio:

If Trump invokes the insurrection act before the election, it definitely will be time for an insurrection.

If Trump decides that starting a nuclear war in Iran might help his midterm chances, he will do it. It's just a question of whether anyone can talk him out of it. This is a man who will absolutely murder 80 million people to give himself a little lift in an election.

My bet is that he'll let Netanyahu do it instead, and then take credit for winning the war.

He is basically asking the Supreme Court to torch the Constitution and let him do whatever the hell he wants. The right to due process for every individual in the United States is a foundational part of our constitutional rights. Take that away & we are all at the mercy of the temperamental tyrant.

He wants more slaves. And the Supreme Court is likely to support that.

President Trump said that Secret Service officials have encouraged him to replace the current Oval Office, according to a new interview with Time magazine. “I said, ‘My ass, you can’t build a new one. This is a special place,’” Trump said.

Nazis were mainly normal people as well, with one particular trait in common, the need to be obedient to authority. These people are incapable of individual thinking, as a result of religious or political indoctrination.

It's my understanding that only the United States Congress has the authority to declare war. This seems to be a war. So how is Trump getting away with sending soldiers and sailors to their likely deaths?

From what I've read, the courts and Congress have ordered the complete release of the Epstein files, but so far, they definitely have not been released. So can someone explain why no one has been arrested for disobeying court orders?
