I agree the man’s deranged. And while Trump doesn’t have the intellect, let’s not forget, he’d be incarcerated right now, if not for the “right-wing elements in the government. SCOTUS, conservative billionaires and powerful religious institutions enabling them; Heritage, The Federalist Society, the Fellowship, etc…

And let’s not forget, this is not just revenge for Trump, these same people are neocons who believe in the Unitary Executive Theory; when the president does it, it’s not illegal.

Therefore, this is payback for what they believe is liberal overreach for humiliating their anointed one. As though taking top secret documents and SAP programs out of the Whitehouse was part of his job description after losing an election. Or a violent attempt to subvert our election process is just another peaceful day at the Capitol.

And if true, then it tells you everything you need to know about these people; they’ll sacrifice the nation to save a narcissistic kleptocratic sociopath; in order to save themselves! Just saying…:)

Dumpy is even more disgusting than I thought he was. To say nothing of more unhinged than I thought. Thanks, Jack. We have to fight this with everything we’ve got.

Outstanding analysis Jack, very compelling. Thank you 🙏💙. I'm wondering who, exactly, is actually creating these AI generated videos?? Peewee German?? I don't think the orange Shitler is tech savvy enough to create them. Yes, his demented sociopathic ideas, but who's doing the video? Or is it the doge dipshits ? I'm curious.

I realized while reading this how I’ve slowly let what Trump says not shock me. The things he is saying would bring a visit from the FBI if it were anyone else. This is the President of the United States of America! It is totally unacceptable, isn’t it. It’s actually shocking. No other president has ever spoken like this, threatened so many citizens personally, demanded his administration be spreading bold lies every day just like he does. And then there is the pathological makeup of Trump. Wow. This is another day of good advice on how to engage. Thank you, Jack. Why do I feel more scared today than I did yesterday? I do know why. This shift in combatting the constant drip, drip, drip of Trump dogma takes more daring and thinking on my part. This is excellent and I will share with my group of like thinking women.

🗣️ of the drip drip drip of Dump’s garbage thoughts, the direct & outspoken signs on display in Scotland have been encouraging!!! They let their disgust show!

Jack, I would strongly recommend to you and all of your readers to get a copy of Orwell’s 1984 and read or reread it your comments in mind. I am starting it, again, today, and I taught the book often during my teaching career. It’s about the creep of fascism and how to fight it, as I’m sure you know.

Hi Jack, is it possible you wrote this one prior to November? There's a line in it "the man who once held the nuclear codes" --?? No problem with reusing material, but if you do, perhaps have someone go through and check for glitches like this. We cannot afford to give our enemies any anything to use against us. (This is the 2nd time I've noticed something like this.)

Ok. If I don’t write things down I tend to forget them these days.

SO, girl is writing herself a script, likely several scripts.

In a brand new theme book.

Perhaps color coded.

May even have somebody run lines with me.

Then volunteering to make calls.

You inspire me, dawg.

Learning is FUN!

It’s the cowardly way. The 🍊💩 is probably the absolute best I have ever seen at getting others to act out its fantasies. Stochastic terrorism is its forte.

Who am I to “fight against?!” I don’t socialize with ppl who believe this crap nor who want to stay up to date about it. They simply ignore me. The few magA I know “slightly” don’t want to discuss “politics” because our views are “different”. Sadly I have had a health issue in my gut flair up after absorbing too much of this news. Self care is paramount. But I don’t feel much possibility in fighting this machine of evilness. My body is trying to purge what I read daily
