📌America has not been in this much danger since the Civil War. I bet I have typed that 155 times the past decade, because it is undeniably true. Yet our mainstream media has treated this full-blown emergency like a series of cloudy days ...

Trump is spending the final stretch campaigning in states he won by double digits because people in every single one of these states know the affordability crisis is not a hoax. They know healthcare cuts to give billionaires a tax cut don’t help them fill the gas tank. #RepublicanHealthcareCrisis

🚨URGENT: When a president values himself more than the people he is supposed to serve, he needs to go. When a president wishes harm on those people he is supposed to serve, then sure as I am typing this, he is a traitor to his country and needs to be locked away for the rest of his miserable life.

Not my president. Clearly, not a president for all Americans. “Let them (Iran) take out Los Angeles. Let them take out San Diego.” Then Trump called it a “small price to pay.” Millions of us dead. And his audience laughed. Reporting from my local news…

📌Last night, Trump welcomed Iran "taking out San Diego and Los Angeles." If this came out of the mouth of ANYBODY it would be sickening. That it came out of the mouth of the president is horrifying. You will not find ANY reporting of this treasonous incident on the front page of the NYT. WHY?

📌At his unhinged rally in Nebraska tonight Trump said he was fine with Iran taking out San Diego and Los Angeles. It’s staggering and indefensible that ANYONE can support this grotesque, anti-American, blood-thirsty asshole much less an entire political party.

If you’ve been paying attention, it appears that Trump has had at least one stroke. Possibly a few. And the bulges and strange posture we have been seeing are because he’s wearing an exoskeleton.

📌The headlong rush to remove those B-1s from an allied air base in UK is NOT NORMAL. The intelligence necessitating such a chaotic withdrawal must have been daunting, and again points to the shoddy planning that went into this idiotic, unnecessary war. The world is far more dangerous place now.

📌It is absolutely appalling that OUR tax money is being used by the President of the United States to take to the airways to celebrate himself and attack US. This is clearly against the law, but what would you expect from a woman-attacking and America-attacking convicted felon?

📌Merrick Garland failed this country, but I have lately wondered if it is even worse that: He was complicit in helping keep Trump safe from prosecution. Notice how Republicans don’t even bother with him, but instead go after people like Jack Smith & Letitia James when protecting their orange idol?

📌BREAKING: The GOP is canceling ad buys in the North Carolina Senate race, because they no longer see a path for their candidate in the state. It's not because elections are rigged, it's because they know they and their historically unpopular president are about to get their asses kicked in Nov.

Here are the problems with Trump & Fox’s claim. Overcharges from ACA user fees date back to money collected during Trump’s own first term. And refunds only go to eligible people in the 30 states using the federal exchange. States that operate their own ACA marketplaces aren’t included.

📌Just 17% of U.S. adults approve of Trump's mishandling of the cost of living. Just 26% approve of his mishandling of the economy overall. Read that again. With but 33 days until the midterms, the Republicans are about to get absolutely annihilated at the polls.

Paxton got caught saying the quiet part out loud: Trump’s Dallas convention “dropped our numbers.” Even John Cornyn is warning that Trump making the midterms about himself is hurting Republicans. So naturally, Trump is headed back to Texas. Because the solution to too much Trump is… MORE TRUMP. ☠️
