Is anyone surprised by this?  Or the lack of backlash?  Trump basically commits acts with impunity the way most people breathe. And the lying and rapaciousness that goes on in his cabinet and inner circle is breathtaking.

 

Can there be just one day when we don't find out something disgusting or appalling occurred thanks to the hysterics of that fool in the White House?  It's head spinning when you look at the rate that frightening bombshells drop when it comes to this administration.  

 

I am the father three little girls, and my entire world revolves around them.  When I think about the repugnant mess we are in politically in this nation, and think about the future I want for them, my heart literally starts to race.  The horrific damage this malignant a##hole and his deranged followers have inflicted will not be neatly fixed when we get a real President in office.  It is going to take decades to repair the mess, and my children will be dealing with the fallout when they reach adulthood, I'm afraid.  It's not fair to them, but it seems unavoidable. 

 

If Trump were to lose the election (and frankly, I think that's a big if at this point), he'd act just like Betty Broderick did when the prison guards tried to pull her off that bed.  It would be hilarious, mortifying and shocking to watch, all at the same time.

Trump: Mueller Shouldn't Testify! LINK: https://www.politico.com/story/2019/05/05/robert-mueller-special-counsel-cicilline-1302632

 

I always felt Barr was lying when he said he didn't mind if Robert Mueller appeared before congress. We now know he likely shut the investigation down and that the DOJ has been dragging their feet scheduling him for the House so don't be surprised if we find out next week that they try to block him entirely. Everything else they do works so why not? Just tie everything up in the courts.

if trump doesn't step down, he should be dragged from the WH and thrown on the street.

That which he accused Obama of, he (Trump) is likely to do.

But, it's okay, because he's white.  (And Republican.  But mostly because he's white.)

I'll settle for someone holding him down and shaving off that ridiculous comb-over.

Some folks need to go to jail because this is totally ridiculous.

Damn right. There are a lot of people who need to go to jail. We've just been putting the wrong people in them (low level drug offenders).

Murdering a prisoner is inexcusable, and pardoning someone for doing so makes it more likely that other us servicemembers will be similarly treated when captured https://t.co/zzVT5nEc4s

That is such a wonderful example to use. Bravo.  The real Betty or Meredith Baxter's Betty?

God bless Meredith Baxter, but nothing topped the real Betty.  ;)

KNEW IT

 

 

It was in a previous Times story that Donald repeatedly lost enormous amounts of money and his father Fred would bail him out each time.

Trump hasn't paid taxes since I was a child and judging by his frequent trips to the golf course, still finding ways to make others foot the bill for his excursions.

^ He lost a billion dollars? He must be the biggest con artist this country has ever seen.
