Compared to trump, Richard Nixon was a warm and fuzzy much beloved guy. I’ve been watching presidential approval rates since 1972. I’ve NEVER seen anyone as hated as trump is.

Look who turned up in @cnn.com timeline of trump/Epstein bromance. Ken Starr represented both Jeffrey Epstein and trump. What an upstanding guy.

A timeline of Trump’s interactions with Epstein and Maxwell reveals a long pattern of social proximity and one that stands in sharp contrast to Trump’s public downplaying of their friendship.

Opinion | Trump keeps acting in China’s best interests — at the expense of America’s

Past experience strongly indicates that we’re screwed. The only reason we dodged 5 million dead from covid was that trump had someone sane in his first stab at destroying America that slipped the vaccine fast track document into a stack. Thank God trump doesn’t read before he signs.

About 16 years ago the right wing lunatics (who used to be the “fringe”) went into hyperdrive outrage mode because…wait for it…President Obama used Dijon mustard instead of the “patriotic” yellow variety. Ah…the good old days.

We’re very close to the point where you’re pretty safe just assuming that any right wing politician you might have to deal with is a sexual predator.

If you were to literally pick any weekday from the last 7 months, I guarantee that if President Obama had done any ONE of the horrible/scandalous things that trump did on the chosen day republicans would have been howling for his blood. They would have funded an election cycle over that one thing.

Warren should have pointed out that her state, Massachusetts, raised taxes on millionaires not by 2% like Mamdani wants, but by 4%. The result? Massachusetts saw a 39% INCREASE in millionaires, a drop in poverty, & a growing economy. Stop trusting billionaires. Start taxing them outta existence.

EXCLUSIVE: Someone Waived Ghislaine Maxwell's Sex Offender Status to Move Her to a Minimum Security Camp in Texas
According to sources, you can't move someone with a Public Safety Factor (PSF) designation - which Maxwell had - without waiving it. That's what happened here.

Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI) —dragged at his own town hall. He should have known when it kicked off w/constituents reciting the Pledge of Allegiance w/extra emphasis on “justice for all.” Then came the truth: “I don’t think you’re the right fit for us anymore.” Even telling him it’s time to step down.

This “the trump/Epstein bromance broke up over a real estate deal” story makes a hell of a lot more sense than the “trump suddenly discovered that Epstein was hitting on underage girls at Mar-a-cesspool and his sense of morality was offended” story.
