My condolences to Mitch McConnell's wife, whose husband will be declared dead on August 4th, one day after the last possible day for a special election to replace him in Kentucky.
Thoughts and prayers you fucking ghoul, because you are involved up to your neck in this deceit.
Trump attempting stand-up last night at the WHCD was fucking cringeworthy. This motherfucker has ZERO sense of humour. NONE. He’s nothing but a profoundly stupid imbecile with no dignity, no depth & not an ounce of self-awareness. Just a hollow shell of a narcissistic psychopath.
This is good though. Many people wish for his death. I don’t. I want to watch the dementia strip away his façade. His dupe. His grift. His inhumanity. And I want MAGA to see the perverted scourge they have inflicted upon this country. Our country.
I watched Trump’s speech at the Correspondents’ Dinner last night.
It’s hard to articulate how sad it made me.
Sad and embarrassed and exhausted.
Here is the thing about a man who is a joke. He can’t tell one.
People think humor is a talent. It isn’t. It’s a capacity. To make someone laugh you have to be able to laugh at yourself, and to laugh at yourself you have to step outside of yourself and see what everyone else sees. For one second you have to be just another person in the room.
Most people can do this by the time they are nine years old.
He has never once managed it. Not in fifty years of cameras. Not for a second.
That is not a quirk. It is a symptom. The muscle that lets you tell a joke is the same one that lets you feel what another person feels. A man who cannot survive being laughed at cannot imagine being anyone but himself. He will only ever be generous when it is photographed. He will only ever be kind when it is filmed.
There is a name for it.
So he stood up there and did what he always does. He hit down. He made jokes about people’s weight. He made jokes about their intelligence. He made jokes about how women look. He read out the names of people he doesn’t like, and mocked them. Always mocking. And when no one laughed he blamed his speech writers.
The cruelty dressed as humor has worn so thin.
And for the 30% of you still in the cult who will inevitably call me a crackhead and blame it all on my Dad, all I can say is please, for the love of God, open your eyes. Wake the fuck up. Have some dignity. Have some pride.
Joe Biden wasn’t standing at that podium last night. Donald Trump was.
And at the end of it he put on a red hat that said Trump 2028 and told the room he was running again. No one laughed because everyone knows he has no intention of leaving.
Just another joke at our expense.
This speech is horrific. The audience is in stunned silence.
Trump attacks Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, and Steve Colbert as “talentless” - then calls Senator Adam Schiff an “ugly” “watermelon head” on a “pencil neck.”
Trump is the biggest embarrassment in American history.
🚨HOLY SHIT: The Getty journalist who captured the moment Trump did NOTHING as his guest fainted at the White House just won an award for the image.
Trump looks completely flustered. This has to be one of the most humiliating nights of his presidency.
Imagine being so fucking dumb, you believe that under wind power the power goes out if the wind stops blowing. trump is an imbecile, a goddamned idiot, an appallingly, crushingly stupid fucking moron. And if you support him, you’re even dumber than he is.
Guys, it’s been more than 5 weeks. If Mitch McConnell can’t personally provide a proper and believable health update, he has to be removed. This is absurd.
I’m really struggling with the whole Mitch McConnell thing. Like is the Democratic Party so weak, not one will book a flight to walk into the hospital or hire a PI to determine he’s dead? Do we not have investigative journalists anymore? WTH is happening & why is no one checking?
