Right. At some point it’s just easier to stay home, isolate as much as possible and tune out. Totally.
What would great is if everyone just acted like he was dead anyway. Publish obituaries. Just act like he isn’t there anymore. Front it out like they did with the whole “We won the election” thing. Think how furious that would make him.
Webster is not the definitive source on what qualifies as genocide. The UN Convention on the Punishment and Prevention of the Crime of Genocide is. www.un.org/en/genocidep...
No doubt there exist tapes of him raping children, probably boys as well as girls. But he‘ll never face any consequences for It.
Always pecking at that phone with his index finger. Like a 4 yr old.
Nowhere in that job description does it say play golf, watch TV, tweet. So what part of his job is he actually doing when he’s not golfing, watching TV, tweeting … or hanging around the club house at MAL.
She probably spent years being raped by him and figures he owes her. Being victim of a child rapist, esp a relative, esp a FATHER, is a rough road. You don’t just magically “get over it.” & how is she supposed to have even sought therapy or help? It doesn’t excuse her, b is something to consider.
They need to start faking him out—announce the date for a Wednesday, but have it actually happen on Tuesday.
What needs to happen is that false dates/times are given for events like this—so, let’s say the actual event takes place on Sept 2, but it’s announced for Sept 3: foils Donald’s distraction plans.
“We”=Me, Myself, I And whoever I have to pay off to go along or get away with it.
And if the rest of the world’s democracies hadn’t bought into the US model for predatory capitalism—gobbling up all those US consumer goods (Levis, Coke, Starbucks, Apple, Microsoft, McD, etc)—it may not have gotten to this point. The US didn’t fall to fascism in a vacuum.
EU has labor laws to protect you from losing your job if you miss one day of work, and universal healthcare to cover you if you do. Transportation infrastructure to get people to protests. Oh, and guns. You don’t have all the guns: the fear of getting shot at a big public event is real.
Maybe some day soon the Blue states can join the rest of the world in a new alliance that excludes MAGA.
Yep. He’s been „in power“ for almost a decade. And it shows.
They won’t be too happy about the next step which may involve federalizing private businesses—wait,?what? You thought you OWNED GM/Shell oil/Humana? Naw, all that belongs to TrumpliCo now.
Release the unredacted Epstein files. After that, can someone explain wtf we have troops approaching Venezuela?
Send ladders.
It doesn’t make sense. Every single one of those violent criminals should’ve been rounded up at the scene.
I was thinking the same thing. Or turn their backs to it.
Yeah, why bother “skimming” when you can just go in there and grab the whole kit and kaboodle? Just steal it outright. Take a chainsaw to it. And a Sharpie.
COVID came SO close. It’s the one time I wish people around him would have just given in—remember, he didn’t want to go to Walter Reed. Someone finally convinced him.
“A dying refrigerator compressor”—I KNEW that sound was familiar, just couldn’t put my finger on it.
Good point.
Whether he strokes out or putters out matters not: just let him be GONE.
His death will be a death the likes of which we have never seen. Ever. Like in a million years, a hundred, a thousand million years. Thank you for your attention to this mad hatter.
It doesn’t matter: as long as they’re talking about him. Whatever they say—if they’re calling him a criminal, a rapist, a pedophile. If they’re wishing he were dead. At least he’s the center of attention. That’s it. His death will undoubtedly be celebrated by more people worldwide than any other.
😡
It’s not just the weight gain. I have lung cancer and COPD, plus various other chronic conditions resulting from all the cancer treatment. My health has gone to HELL under the weight of this regime. My lung function has literally TANKED. I wish we could file class action against him.
It’s got to be humiliating af for them. They should refuse to do it.
Pop! Go the measles!
If RFK jr would stand up at ANY medical conference and spouts his pseudoscience-cult BS, he would be laughed off stage. Where TF are these same physicians now? Every single doctor in the country must take a stand against this guy.
At some point this regime will so something that has such tremendous impact on international markets that the world’s democracies will form a new alliance and intervene. Militarily, if need be. I’ve heard rumors that EU countries are halting postal service to the US. Sounds like sanction to me.
Truth and Reconciliation. Vergangenheitsbewältigung. Vielmehr: Gegenwartsbewältigung, denn viele kapieren nicht einmal wie tief wir in der 💩 sitzen.
The country is covered in a hate dome.
I was calling it “Russian Mob Boss” chic, but Temu Tinpot works for me too.
Voters here don’t have the wherewithal to get off their asses and vote. Most recent elections in Germany, for example, had abt 80% participation. This is why they have universal healthcare, strong labor laws, excellent infrastructure, sustainability, etc. Because they have FOUGHT for these things.
Your solution is contingent on this, that “voters in the pro-democracy coalition have the courage and the endurance to take” the actions you suggest. It is amply apparent that neither voters, nor politicians, nor the media, nor the courts are in possession of said courage. And that’s the problem.
Who’s going to stop him? That is the problem.
St Sabina in Chicago. He does a LOT of good work. saintsabina.org
Michael Pfleger.
That’s the real problem. I don’t have any answers for how to stop him. Good ol’fashioned protest MIGHT work, if we cld get millions in the streets *daily* & for weeks on end: that is, till he steps DOWN. National strike might do it. But, see above. I think it’ll require international intervention.
“Tips”? Felt more like a long, drawn-out, slow motion topple. Ever since that worthless p.o.s. made his infamous descent on that escalator.
That’s the kicker: it doesn’t matter how many of us protest, boycott, write letters, etc. No one in any position of power (i.e. GOP!) will do anything to stop him. We spent decades not voting, now we’re paying the price.
Beam me up Scotty.
Right. That’s what SHOULD have happened.
I just want to wake up to a world that Trump is not in. No news of him. No pics. No mention. No nada.
Because she didn’t FIGHT BACK. No audits. No recounts. Even though Elon has pretty much CONFESSED to rigging the thing. We kept asking: what are you going to do to protect the vote? She told us they had hundreds of lawyers on the ground, ready to swing to action. Instead: “when we fight, we fold.”😡
So what do we do? Refuse to give the planes clearance to land with NG troops? Do Chicagoans have to go out to OHare & Midway and literally stand on the tarmac. If they try to come in by land, do we have to block all roads leading in to the city? How do we keep them out if he doesn’t listen?
Yeah he’s got that offensive part down.
Right? Why wasn’t Abrego Garcia given adequate protection?
The fact that they couldn’t even protect Abrego Garcia says a lot. Wth?
How the hell did we even allow him to be taken into ICE custody AGAIN? He should have been in a secure undisclosed location with his family, and the only contact between him and Trump’s people should have been through lawyers.
I do not get why the “good guys” even allow Trump’s people to get their hands on him. Why aren’t he and his family being taken to a secure, undisclosed location, with Trump’s people’s ONLY access to him being virtual and with lawyers present. They should have top-level luxury witness protection.
I have a hunch that he was basing all that “grocery” talk on the idea that it was spelled “grosseries”. Once he found out it was “groceries” he stopped.
Just goes to show: it takes ONE person to stand up to them. Don’t back down. Demand that they themselves, show proof of warrant, badge numbers. Don’t back down.
Even in the “high crime” neighborhoods, it’s really block by block. You get one bad apple in a rental and the problems start there…
They’re eating the dogs with Ketchup on them: come get them. Now.
Berlin?
Yep. Grotesque. To the extent that it was even too much for Epstein. He is the most despicable piece of shit most people have ever known or seen. And most people agree. They put up with him bc he has $ and power. But does anyone genuinely LIKE him? No. Everyone HATES him.
I usually tell people who write in all caps to stop screaming, but not now. You are spot on. It’s maddening, and tragic, terrible and terrifying. We all need to be SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF OUR LUNGS ABOUT THIS.
Yeah this is too much. It’s been too much for the longest time. Even before Musk rigged the election for Trump—he couldn’t even get people to come to his rallies if he paid them. His ratings are in the toilet. But who’s to stop him? Be runs roughshod over laws, rules and rulings.
Exactly. Every court decision involving Trump must come with immediate/24 hr deadlines because a court ruling means nothing to him—appeal, appeal, appeal. He’s been gaming the system like this since FOREVER. What’s it gonna take for the courts to get two steps ahead of him. On everything.
Yeah, you can do a lot if damage in 60 days.
MAGAflation.
MAGAflation.
It’s a grift shop, though, not a gift shop.
Quit with the threats and “I want all the marbles or I’m not gonna vote”-shit. For you, it’s the trans vote. For me it could be Native Americans (like give me my whole fucking country back!), for my husband it could be slavery. Stop. Whatever it takes to get these crazies out of the wheelhouse.
We don’t know that.
He wasn’t?
He’s so good at keeping secrets
And twice impeached*.
Grift shop.
Beyond that, though, what is this “grift shop” even doing in the WH? It needs to be REMOVED. House and Senate Dems need to go in their with the Sargent at Arms or some other LEO and shut that shit shop DOWM. It has no business being at the WH.
Every single Democratic Senator and Rep should be there on location fighting these detentions. With full court press, insisting that the “officers” identify themselves and explain their reasons for detaining. If our representatives would be there, we would stand behind them.
I can remember my boyfriend’s phone number from 1984. Come to think of it, that might make a good pw!
Authentically Asshole (AA): Hi, my name is Donald, and I am an asshole.
Right? I mean, we the people can only do so much. Congressional Dems need to walk in there and shut the shit DOWN. It is illegal, unconstitutional and must be STOPPED. They literally need to send in people to remove the fucking merch. Confiscate it. Let him have it back when he’s a private citizen.
No, active non-violent resistance.
And we best use it, or we WILL lose it.
Exactly. Corral them. All the easier to boycott and ostracize them.
Where does the red line come into play? Before or after they’ve kidnapped and detained X-number of people? Before or after how many children have been raped? They have shown that there is no bottom. So tell us where the bottom is & let’s say that’s where we stop.
Oh stop. They’re supposed to be offensive. These bastards have earned every ounce of scorn heaped upon them.
Journalists need to follow-up, in writing, asking for specific details: what dead people? Names, addresses. When? What election? Etc.
Nah. Just broken egg shells.
The strongest smelling… Fixed it.
That is the ONLY way to communicate with that motherfucker.
I wish they would! He would fold like the cheap suit he’s in. Unless people are totally IN HIS FACE, telling him he’s a sorry-ass fucking loser, loudly, unequivocally, he’ll find a way to twist it into praise, adoration. Everyone should be going Gavin on him: everyone. Humiliate tf out of him.
Since end of WWII, we’ve been paying to defend EU from USSR, while EU states have been free to invest in healthcare, infrastructure, green energy, labor laws etc. NOT having those things makes it more difficult to hit the streets. We took care of your Hitler problem. Can you return the favor?
….person camera TV
Maybe someday we’ll be able to have nice things again.
Child rape at minimum.
Who is going to tell them…AGAIN!? @cnn.com @msnbc.com @cbsnews.com @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @theguardian.com @nbcnews.com @jessicatarlov.bsky.social
How is this fucking pillow talk between Trump and Putin not a violation of the Presidential Records Act? Isn’t ALL diplomatic communication of the POTUS supposed to be ON RECORD? This motherfucker needs to be under constant surveillance/scrutiny. Whatever happened to Barack’s Blackberry?
He does know that’s not the same thing as a throuple though, right? Right? I mean he sounds so damn thirsty with that creepy RFK rasp.
The European countries need to take an aggressive stance against Trump and Putin. Do not back down. They should insist that there be no further Putin/Trump under the table meetings—all future negotiations must be conducted with at least 3 parties, and with cameras rolling. Enough with PutinTrump.
Good point!
