Hey, Kegsbreath - if you're screening for testosterone, why not screen for prostate cancer, too? Prostate cancer really loves testosterone.

So . . . the guy who golfs one out of every four days needs a ballroom to be secure. What the hell? Does he plan to dance for the rest of his life? What is he planning to do that's so onerous that he thinks he needs a bunker complete with a hospital?

Has anyone thought to ask tRump if he knows what the word "decimate" means?

I think Trump's deal with Iran isn't so bad, really. Iran gets money to pay them back something for damages done and perhaps millions of Iranians who might have been killed were not. Impeach and remove now, before he does it again.

Our former allies have refused to help prosecute an illegal war in Iran. If Trump carries out his threats, our former allies are unlikely to ever help us again.

The U.S. has supported the genocide in Palestine for years. What will stop the genocide in Iran?

I think that Trump's military objective in Iran is the same as it's always been - steal the oil.

Just was a group of kids going down the street in front of my house with "Fuck ICE" signs and the like. I went out and faced them and gave them a thumbs-up and they all yelled happily.

One must wonder: with the government purchasing lots of storage buildings to house "illegal immigrants," and assuming that they actually plan at some point to deport them, what will they ultimately be used for? Us?

So far, Trumpland is a lot like Idiocracy, but with far more face-eating rabid rats than I expected.

Saying that Trump is the worst president ever misses the point; he's the worst human in memory. He's Jeffery Dahmer with armies.

Canceling because of an incident you don't like strikes me as throwing out the baby with the bathwater. For every blithering CEO there are thousands of hamsters making all the little wheels turn who will be the first to suffer.

Perhaps a proper time to quote Donne: "any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."

I'm at a serious loss to explain how Drumpf can keep declaring fake emergencies to harm people and there is no one who can stop him.

Drumpf says he'll put the DC homeless somewhere far away. No specifics. Does he have another concentration camp ready for them?

Billionaires do not want a bigger yacht or another vacation home. They want more billions. They want it all. If they just wanted another yacht or home, they could already afford to buy it.

Welcome to the new AmeriKKKa, now with military lads on every street corner! Why, you can't have a banana republic without that! Enjoy your free escort to a brand new country you've never seen, where you can enjoy the true adventure of wars and poverty, just like the place you left, but different.

Does anyone have a list of the things that Trump has done that are actually Constitutional?

Trump cannot be bound by law. The only remedy is removal.

1. I consider the proverbial dog eventually catching the car it chases. Once Trump has declared martial law with soldiers on streets of the "Democrat" cities, what's he gonna do with it? With the armed forces fighting their own people, it seems unlikely that he can annex Poland, or even Greenland.

Sometimes I feel old. I remember when I couldn't imagine soldiers and military vehicles on our streets, or tanks streaming through D.C. But now I'm imagining water cannons, and I'm surprised they haven't yet been deployed. Dark days.

Based on his interview on CNN, It seems as though Drumpf has no idea that small business is the backbone of America. From the greasy spoons to the auto mechanics to the daycares to the furniture stores, small business is the economy.

Isn't it a bit silly that when Drumpf's polls are bad he rants and the people doing the polls instead of those answering them? 😆

Autism isn’t an epidemic. It's not a disease. It’s a natural variation in how people think…which, frankly, is a relief in a world where most people don't think at all.

Law firms might as well work for Trump pro bono because he never pays anybody anyway. And how else would he be able to get lawyers to work for him except by intimidation?
