The greatest piece of political propaganda in our time was convincing millions of people that caring for others and the planet was somehow a threat to America.
January 6th is when Lindsey went on the floor and said he was done with Trump. Then Kevin McCarthy, then Mitch McConnell (all in this clip).
They could have walked away and followed through with the impeachment.
Don't ever forget that it's been the Republicans in Congress who have enabled this for the last 10 years.
I'm going to predict that when the damage assessment is complete, well into the future, Trump's greatest crime will prove to be espionage - AND - it will be the most catastrophic breach of national security in American history.
We will discover he passed secrets to Russia from day 1 because he was compromised; and did favors for the Saudis shortly after, purely for personal profit; and who knows what the hell else.
His many Useful Idiocies will boggle the mind. And his America First gaslight will be remembered as it should be remembered: "Trump Before America, facilitated by idiots who called themselves patriots."
His treachery - most done purely for power and profit, and some from pathology, revenge, and entitlement, will have massively impacted the globe, permanently shifted wealth, and cost many millions of lives.
I have to add that a good deal of it would not have happened but for our legacy media's consistent and widespread normalization of his disorders.
Mitch McConnell has been hospitalized and out of public view since mid-June, with zero transparency from his office. Is he alive? Brain dead? Recovering?
Yet DC reporters can’t be bothered to demand real answers or even basic updates.
The media’s selective silence is deafening.
It really just bums me out that we have the resources to fix our society, stop our reliance on fossil fuels, guarantee healthcare, house the homeless, and feed every person in the country, but doing so would be a bad time for like, 8 men, so we can’t do it.
Graham Platner was accused of rape so he stepped down.
Donald Trump was accused of rape 40 times, including from children, and did not step down.
Our parties are not the same
Once you accept that Donald Trump is simply a mobster who does not care about any social issues, any geopolitical issues, any economic issues, etc., and that his sole, reptilian purpose is to enrich himself by any means, legal or not, it all makes sense.
I can think of no better argument for term limits than millions of people on social media honestly asking whether or not a sitting U.S. Senator is alive.
The democrats no longer support Graham Platner. They cut off this funding, his staff quit, and he was told to resign. See how easy that was, MAGA? Your turn.
Democrats cannot let people forget that it was the Republicans who cut their healthcare. Millions are struggling or without insurance, and as Rick says on MSNOW, the GOP is to blame.
Conventional wisdom, with which I agree: Trump is more narcissistic, self-absorbed, and megalomaniacal than ever.
Conventional wisdom, with which I disagree: Oh c’mon, Trump understands he really can’t run again.
My hunch: Trump “understands” no such thing. He wants to run. He’ll try to.
