He is delusional and he has the power to kill us all. If he perceives the threat to him is real he very well could punish us all by doing it.

RIPOs: Republicans in principle only Leaving the cult is evidence of TRS: Trump Recognition Syndrome I was a lifelong Republican until the second impeachment failed to result in conviction. Until then I had hope for my party. No longer. The party is now irredeemably corrupted. It’s finished.

Your attempt to both walk and hold a baby was, indeed, quite impressive. Some might argue that you put that young life in jeopardy for no apparent reason. Such fools. What’s important is the election victory!! Re-elect Rep. Jack Kimble!!! The grandfather we always carefully watch out for!!!!!

Trump wants to claim Nixon got a raw deal. Just to be clear, Nixon should have gone to prison. Pardoning him may have paved the way for the mess we’re in: www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

Bassinet [sic] may be correct about this being an acceleration phase. Unfortunately, we don’t seem to be accelerating up. This is, apparently, what happens when a mediocre, uninformed, failed businessman is elected President. It was inevitable. Who could have predicted this outcome?

It’s clear why Trump always posts stupid little comments like this. It shows his complete insecurity. I’m just surprised he doesn’t ask for autographs. Of course, he kept the giant letter from Kim Jong Un after his first term. So he could show it off. He is a small, fragile, insecure man.

Donald Trump hates democracy. He hates free speech & a free press. He hates free & fair elections. He hates an independent judiciary & its duty to justice & the law. Yet he adores murderous dictators, particularly Putin. Who exactly is the enemy of the people? American voters have one more chance.

Electing this guy to a second term was seriously the dumbest thing a modern electorate has done in recent history. This guy is genuinely an embarrassment to evolution.

If Trump declares the 2026 election invalid because a few handfuls of Republicans committed voter fraud at Trumps request, not only Alito and Thomas but the other conservative justices as well would agree that vote fraud has destroyed the democratic process.
