People who could vote for Trump 3 times are not capable of understanding this.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

Well, and before that -- why is it acceptable to have a president who is a convicted felon, sexual abuser, and chronic liar? All of that was before he started falling asleep in meetings.

Maybe more accurately a pendulum swing. But even that is disturbing as hell, going back and forth from medium okay to horrible. We're not addressing the question of why so many people make devastatingly bad voting decisions.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social @slotkin.senate.gov the next time a politician says the American people are not dumb, the media should say: then explain why tens of millions of Americans voted for Trump THREE times, and explain how about 1 out of 3 Americans STILL approve of Trump. That's not dumb?

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Even if he's not brain dead, he's obviously unwell enough that it's irresponsible to remain a Senator. This is completely outside of the issue of being in office way too long anyway. But apparently after all the damage he's done for decades, he's figured out a way to do more from his death bed. Evil

So, some of the Republicans know better but do the evil or dipshit stuff anyway, and some Republicans are dipshits themselves. Maybe if the public were better educated we wouldn't elect these dipshits.

We need to be talking about how to fix the broken electoral system and the broken electorate. By doing that we wouldn't have a broken government. 70+ million votes for a known serial pathological liar, sexual predator, and convicted felon is a severely broken electorate. Severely.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 07/06/2026

Honestly, why bother to interview Trump? All he does is spew bullshit, and he does that as a rude, crass asshole.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

I just wonder when more people will realize that a less than ideal Democrat is far better than criminal trash. That ought to be universally and painfully obvious by now.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

Unfortunately millions have believed his lies for a decade.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 02/06/2026

Which is bullshit. No religion officially says anything about vaccines. We wouldn't let people opt out of getting a driver's license on religious grounds.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

I'm anti-Trump because he's both a Republican and an asshole.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

Compare that to the way the Republican Party behaves.

Not all religious people are bat shit crazy. But all bat shit crazy people are religious.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 08/05/2026

This: I don't blame the Democrats. I blame the people. Trump was & is clearly criminal trash. Harris was and is at least a reasonably decent and intelligent human being with the best résumé of any presidential candidate in history. Electing Trump was inexcusable.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 03/05/2026

Why aren't all the disapprove numbers near 0. That's what is merited.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 03/05/2026

As opposed to every single sentence out of his mouth is bullshit.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 28/04/2026

Right. Especially if what is said are facts. Calling Trump a convicted felon who constantly lies is not inciting divisiveness. It's stating facts. Saying that stating those facts it is inciting divisiveness is inciting divisiveness.

@nicollewallace.bsky.social @ms.now this is relevant to the discussion after the event at the #whcadinner. This was written last fall, but it's still quite relevant. substack.com/home/post/p-...

We should do it for environmental reasons, first and foremost.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 27/04/2026

Well, 70+ million people voted for Trump 3 times. And Trump has committed crimes both in and out of office, and he hasn't been imprisoned. So, yeah, I think we, as in the American people as a whole, are stupid.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 20/04/2026

@nicollewallace.bsky.social your podcast episode with @sifill.bsky.social was superb. She speaks with great wisdom and clarity. Millions of Americans need to attend classes with Ms Ifill as the lecturer.

In the same way, no journalist should attend the White House press dinner, or whatever it's called.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

And even if he had the skills, he's a criminal. Skills without integrity isn't any good either.

Or maybe — it's none of your damn business.

This needs repeating a zillion times.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

And I'll give a reminder that you are a public officeholder in the federal government, and you should not be doing or saying anything which promotes or endorses any religion. Do you want to be inclusive? Practice fully separation of church and state.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 06/04/2026

Trump would never put someone as decent and smart as you in his Cabinet. And so, the sycophants in his cabinet won't be decent and smart enough to invoke the 25th Amendment. We're in a bad vicious circle.

If you agree to work for an asshole, eventually you will get shat upon.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Hey dude! I'm thrilled you got elected as NYC mayor, but you have a blind spot about the principle of separation of church and state. You want to be inclusive rather than exclusive? Stop all religious talk/actions/observances when acting in the official capacity of your public office.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Since Trump can't speak without lying, he didn't promise. He conned.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

We might deserve an independent justice department, but as long as Trump is president, we sure as hell won't get it.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

He may be the biggest scam in human history. How people couldn't see that dating back to the 2016 election, I don't understand. He's a scammer and has been his entire adult life. Full stop.

000

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

Yeah, but she was not fired for all those bad things. She was fired for not doing those bad things bad enough! And don't think for a second that anyone better will take her place.

Mr. O'Donnell is the most directly clear and insightful commentator on television. I applaud his work.

Michael Fogler @michaelfogler.bsky.social · 02/04/2026

Exactly. The stupidity about that is completely disgraceful and embarrassing; and we're all going to be paying for it for many, many years.
