The problem is he has difficulty with math, which may be why he failed for bankruptcy so many times. 😰😰🤣🤣🤣

You can’t KNOW he was in that gang W-o due process. What would YOU want if you were accused and simply shipped off to El Salvador?

While our government cuts funding for science and research in every area, the Chinese is accomplishing amazing feats undreamed of just 50 years ago. This is a MUST WATCH VIDEO

The CDC typically provides grants to the states the manage many of the chronic disease prevention programs. The loss of the funding will likely hit the poor rural states like Alabama, major areas of MAGA populations. We’ll see how they feel about programs closing 😰😰😰😰🤣🤣

It is amazing how haphazard the firings of DOGE has been even though it has no real authority. Also, taking longstanding grants over a wide range of projects should not be solely by what DOGE believes are Trump’s priorities. He certainly knows nothing about individual grants GOOD LUCK 😖😖😖

In Germany where the people remember the results of absolute fealty to the ELECTED LEADER, the government has now declared the far right AfD (their MAGA) an “exremist” organization. WILL WE LEARN BEFORE ITS TOO LATE? 😖😖😖😖😖😖🥵🥵🥵🥵

It’s taken a while for Trump to get here. Remember when Kelly Ann Conway argued Trump’s inaugural crowd was larger than Obama’s. It was just an ALTERNATE REALITY. Now with Trump demanding absolute fealty to him, alternate reality has become the legally required truth TRUMP TRUTH

OK, so the delusional DJT just told those at hit 100 day rally that he was going to assure that the US would be putting MAN ON MARS VERY SOON. He also said “promises made, promises kept “ over his first 100 days. TIME FOR THE 25th Amendment as he is certifiable 😱😱😱😱🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

That would call for a 25th Amendment removal if any president other that Trump said it. It is proof that congressional Republicans are in a cult and are afraid of crossing Dear Leader. Murkowski said it but won’t/can’t leave the cult party 😰😰😰😰😰😖😖😖😖😖
