    Trump is always projecting, it’s crazy there are still people who actually support him.

    He’s a pervert who wants to have sex with his daughter, he’s a thug who uses illegal methods in business, and tried to overthrow a democratic election.

    How is this guy not in jail yet? The claim that the law is equal to all Americans is a joke.

    Well, as a former political official, he is among them. It’s also a bad look to say this because the president has to work with other politicians. If you are an independent or reasonable republican, please vote against him in the primary. Vote for maybe Tim Scott or Nikki Haley or the North Dakota guy or the mayor of Miami. Off the top of my head, they seem milder in bigotry and tyranny. They still are a little bigoted and tyrannical, but not at Trump, DeSantis, or Pence’s level.

      They’re self proclaimed patriots that do everything they can to ruin their country, self proclaimed Christians that do the exact opposite of everything their religion prescribes and they claim to be “pro-life” but all their political positions are designed to get people killed. They have nothing but lies.

    As that traitorous cow was the one who helped bring this about, I would love to see him branded.

    Donald Trump brands US his campaign a ‘third -world hellhole’ run by ‘perverts’ and ‘thugs’

    Fixed it. Remember every accusation is a confession with these folks.

      I know my perspective is different due to living in Colorado. I couldn’t imagine the hellscape that Florida, Texas, or Oklahoma are and I feel sorry for all those stuck in those places.

          Hey friend. I’m not too far from you in a much safer, blue state. If you ever need help or anything, even just to talk lemme know

            I appreciate the offer, you’re very kind.I have friends all over the country that have offered similar support.

            I won’t leave my brother or mother behind. The main thing keeping me here is that she’s stubbornly refusing to move. Last year half the town she lives in got destroyed by the hurricanes. She still won’t leave and complains about politics all the time.

            It’s maddening.

      handled Covid so badly

      This isn’t wrong, but is just such an understatement. He did pretty much the opposite of what he should’ve in every way. He handled it poorly on purpose in an attempt to hurt Democrats, and politicized it at every point to try and rile up his base. He turned what should’ve been a unifying crisis in this country into a chasm wide political divide we won’t be healing from any time soon. The only thing he arguably did right was to push getting vaccines out as soon as possible, which he obviously only did for his own ego.

        He handled it poorly on purpose in an attempt to hurt Democrats, and politicized it at every point to try and rile up his base.

        Exactly this. He saw that COVID was hitting New York hard and decided to not do anything because New York didn’t vote for him. As it hit blue states (which were more urban) hard and didn’t hit rural red states as badly, he refused to use federal funds to buy needed PPE. Blue states bought their own PPE with their own money and Trump had it confiscated to be redistributed to red states. It got so bad that some states had to sneak PPE in during the middle of the night as if they were smuggling in drugs.

        Trump tried to hurt blue states for not voting for him. He was willing to let people die because they didn’t support him politically.

        Given everything else he did and how presidents are given so much leeway with their actions, I doubt he’ll ever be found criminally liable, but he absolutely is responsible for many, many deaths.

        His administration funded development. As for distribution, they did jack all. Biden’s people came in, asked what the logistics plan was and there was none. One had to be put together at the last minute.

      He certainly made it worse but let’s stop pretending this country wasn’t completely fucked before he showed up.

      This country has been ran by thugs for at least a century. We are just seeing the latest version of the shit storm, which only gets worse over time.

    Things republicans say when they think the slurs they use in other contexts will be poorly received.

      They just be dropping the words “generic slur” instead of actual slurs and would be no difference in their speeches

    One of the very few things he’s said that I actually agree with. Although I suspect we’re not thinking of the same people.
