Nothing surprises me concerning tRump.....Nothing. I am completely horrified that we have a candidate for the Presidency of our United States that is calling his opponent "Stupid, Mentally Impaired" HOW did we get here? And the sensationalism seeking media gives him all the free air time he wants!!! Thanks so much for printing the TRUTH about this moronic monster!

Scott Dworkin's avatar

What I make sure to do is not to normalize it in my head. So even though I, like you Mary Ann, am not surprised, but I am still horrified by what he does.

David A Pitock's avatar

Horrified is exactly right.

NO ONE would hire CFDT for a job at any level in any company, not even selling hamburgers. Yet, he runs for the highest office in the country, even though he’s a convicted felon.

Why has amending the quals never been on the agenda- perhaps a tiny amendment to the qualifications clause set forth in Article II, Section 1, Clause 5. Not much, just 1 or 2 disqualifying attributes.. perhaps… acts of treason or conspiring to do harm to any member of the house, congress or the judicial system, or their families; nor shall they have participated in any thing that aims to destroy the very democracy The United States was founded on.

Do the people --'WE THE PEOPLE ' EVEN KNOW THAT THIS IS IN OUR CONSTITUTION.?!AND furthermore do the judges??!

Susan Wingate's avatar

He's a liar with no moral conscience. He deserves prison. Let's vote him out and send him to prison!

Bill Riley's avatar

We’re not just going to beat him, we’re going to bury him in a rock-solid, indisputable landslide.

Let's gitter done!

Bill from UWS's avatar

AND we need to be donating, door knocking, post carding. This is a seminal moment. All hands on deck. Let's do it.

From his fingertips to voters' ears. God does not vote.

Sharon C Storm's avatar

Hoping and praying you are correct. We need integrity in our government, and tfg never, ever had any iota of it. He has been a con since he was first working for his KKK father.

David A Pitock's avatar

It's the only way. Let's go.

Susan Niemann's avatar

His lying and incoherent rambling is getting worse. And there are more trolls than ever, it seems. I'm so disappointed in my fellow Americans who continue to support him, though. They refuse to believe his promise of a dictatorship. Its scary.

Jessica Rath's avatar

But they believe his promises of a glorious future which will make them rich and powerful. Scary indeed.

"Don't tax the rich because when Trump makes me rich I don't wanna be taxed"

Mitch Moncrief's avatar

That is essentially the Republican platform: if you believe in the American dream then one day you’ll be rich so vote for us because we’ll let you keep your money. And by the way when you don’t get rich we are going to do our best to cut/end Medicare, Soc Sec, middle class tax deductions, and Obamacare.

Jessica Rath's avatar

Because if you DON'T get rich it's YOUR fault. Shame on you for being poor.

James Rankin's avatar

We've rigged it so that, as a member of the middle or working class, you'll never be able to become rich.

James Rankin's avatar

Something that will never happen except in their dreams & fantasies.

Brian Longo's avatar

"Don't tax the rich" says the person who drowned in the "trickle-down economics" Kool-Aid, gets a less-than cost of living raise (maybe), has no pension, borderline healthcare (maybe), and believes they should retire at 65 when they can't even afford to retire 3 years after they're dead.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

It is absolutely horrifying Susan.

David A Pitock's avatar

His dementia is going to get worse.

Donna Rogers's avatar

And what he said last night about pulling the legal immigration status of Haitian’s. I have no more printable words. I despise this person!

Scott Dworkin's avatar

That was despicable. Truly gross, Donna!

shee-rah's avatar

He would have the Haitians, who are here legally, deported just to justify his own lies. Has there ever been a more despicable human being in this country?

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Not in our lifetime

James Rankin's avatar

I can't think of any in our history. Worst president & greatest traitor in US history. The only person in the world that I can think of who rivals him in despicability is Trump's puppetmaster Putin.

Bill from UWS's avatar

Did, I miss something? Is not Mrs Trump an immigrant?

KingRayVet's avatar

She's not Black. He's a racist disgusting human being, and we as Black people know what he's doing & insinuating!

Donna Rogers's avatar

Yes but not Haitian.

Kenneth Gurley's avatar

I am an 82 y.o., 5’8” tall, weakened and arthritic man but, yet I wish I COULD CARRY YOU ON MY SHOULDERS

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Let's go Kenneth!!! I'll just carry you on mine!

Ralph T's avatar

Keep the faith Mr. Gurley. Hopefully, you (and the nation) can breathe easier in 5 weeks. 🙏

Jean Peters's avatar

Any candidate whose answer to a “fact-check “ is “You pinky swore you wouldn’t call out my lies” should be barred forever from any office of public trust. Any “journalist” who agrees to such terms needs to hang up their press pass.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

I'm with you on that Jean!

Ms Jonington's avatar

I didn’t hear about any of this. Thanks for sharing. Now I’m pissed. 😡

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Let's use that energy to get folks to vote!

KingRayVet's avatar

I've been pissed since 2016.

Diane J's avatar

There is too much media, owned by right wingers, salivating to spread his lies fully knowing the danger they're putting our democracy in; but that's their plan isn't it.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

Absolutely Diane

KingRayVet's avatar

Yes, divide & conquer.

Glenn Reynolds's avatar

Plus he added more of his usual commentary deriding the idea of climate change in his various diatribes this week. Like 9/11, where he claimed he was down helping on "the pile" across the street from where I lived, he is doing very little here. He could cut a check for a few million without batting an eye. He grifts more than that from supporters on a slow day.

Kate's avatar

The insanity of this all is beyond the pale. I am actually willing to believe that tRUMP is no longer to control this, to control himself from doing and saying these things. His brain is so damaged now, that he can’t. But the media, the other members of the GOP, the tRUMP voters, they can control and choose what to do. And for me, that makes them more deplorable than their Dear Leader/Piggy Bank. Because they

Fucking know better and could do better!

Sandy's avatar

The brick wall got me.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

It is so horrible

Mary Ann Gahagan's avatar

he seems to have an obsession with walls, no?

Scott Dworkin's avatar

He loves walls more than his family

SPW's avatar

He needs to be surrounded by the four walls of an 8x8 cell that’s surrounded by a cell block that’s surrounded by prison walls that’s surrounded by concertina-topped prison property walls. Let’s elect someone who will appoint someone who can get all THAT done! Finally!!

Sandy's avatar

Right. Ridiculous to take time out in the middle of a crisis. Anything to make himself look important and official.

ellmarree's avatar

I am not surprised. Let us not forget the handlers & financiers that bought J D Vance his appointment. IE musk/thiel 🤯

Karen Livolsi's avatar

Me too, Kenneth. I took one look at that photo op and my first thought was who the hell build a “stage” for CFDT in the middle of a massive rescue mission? Who did that? Shame on you! Shameful act.

Sam Jones's avatar

Trump is the WORST

Scott Dworkin's avatar

That's putting it nicely.

Cynthia Verdell's avatar

Jack is back! He will convict that traitor trump and his cronies! He has no where to go or hide! Truth always wins, maybe slow in coming, but this is the time for the end of all trumps all the time. Go home to Russia Melanie, your assignment is over.

Yonah's avatar

And take DJT with u!

Marsha's avatar

I’m sure MAGAts will just say “so what”.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

And isn't that just horrible Marsha?

Patti's avatar

I vote in GA, Scott (though I live in Italy). I so

appreciate reading you. Thank you for yr keen mind and everything else. We will make Georgia blue. Hell, we did it four yrs ago.

Scott Dworkin's avatar

I worked in Georgia on the ground 19 years ago!

Patti's avatar

Kindred spirits! For all of my voting life, it was MA and NY … voting in GA allows me to make a difference (or hope to, anyway).

Patti's avatar

Niente! You, yr readers. We are a tribe.

EFS's avatar

One can never overestimate Trump's bumptious self-promotion, or the depths of his perversion. Pretty soon he'll be claiming that he is the second coming.

That would only be possible if he is Yeats' rough beast.
