Elon Musk's 1 million dollar giveaway is just another one of his stupid business practices. He should take a page from Trump and make money from fraud and tax evasion.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

I guess when Trump says "protect" he really means "f*ck." In 2016 he said when you are famous you can grab them by the synonym for cat.

If you live in North Carolina vote against the amendment. It is completely unnecessary. State and federal laws already prevent non-citizens from voting . Politically, it’s based upon unfounded theories of widespread non-citizen voter fraud. Spread the word.

Trump is funny. He says that Democrats might go crazy and not accept the results of the election. He also says he won't hire anyone for his administration who believes he lost in 2020.

Why Harris will lose to Trump. It is the economy stupid. Instead of talking about the horrors of post Roe v. Wade America, she needs to counter Trumps' lies in his commercials and explain that the economy is in good shape.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Trump says climate change is a hoax. I agree. Hurricanes Helene and Milton occurring 11 days apart show that God in her infinite wisdom is punishing Florida for the evils of its governor.

Republicans are the party of hate and snark. To be president you need a plan to move the country forward. It is not enough to make stupid insults about the opposition. Maybe Walz didn't carry a gun but he is not a moron like the other VP candidate.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Trump's ad about the economy is filled with lies. IMO clips from TV should show the date they aired. Inflation is not at a 40 year high, just the opposite.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Trump is a pathological liar. Kamala was the one who supervised his prosecution???

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Joe Biden is a selfish azzh01e. He can't beat Trump so he is going to lose the Senate for us, strengthen Republican control of the house and allow Trump to appoint two more people to Supreme Court. WORST PRESIDENT EVER

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Hey SCOTUS. Explain to me why that in order to protect the presidency we have to give Trump immunity for hiding the fact that he made hush money payments to a porn star. Should Nixon have been given immunity for Watergate??

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Trump did not have sex with a porn star? I guess not. He only had sex with a slut with big boobs who was hanging out at his golf tournament.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

The Supreme court is corrupt. The new immunity ruling shows that the three justices appointed by Trump feel obligated to protect him from prosecution. In contrast Clarence Thomas who only took money is a saint.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

The Supreme Court is stoooopid. A President who legalizes gay marriage is immune to prsoecution, but not one who used every means at his disposal to prevent the peaceful transition to the newly elected goverment.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

Joe must go. There is no chance he can beat Trump. Trump's landslide victory will flip lots of house and senate seats. With a psycho in the White House and Republican control of the legislature and the courts it will be a dark time in America.

@Lexi You are great. Even Nelly wandered in the desert for two years between great seasons. A wrist injury and an incredible number of finishes at positions 2 to 10 must be frustrating. Time away could be good for you.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

It is time for Republicans to stop supporting Trump's lie that the election was rigged. He filed 61 lawsuits and all but one was dismissed as having no basis in fact. The book Disproven by Ken Block gives a careful account of the facts.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

At a Greensboro, North Carolina, rally, former President Donald Trump, referring to 2020, said "82% of the country understands that it was a rigged election. A new Monmouth poll finds the number is 30% a number that has been almost constant since November of 2020

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

On the fourth anniversary of the beginning of the covid epidemic, it is time to pause and reflect on the fact that 1 million people died due in no small part to Trump's incompetent handling of the crisis, and in no sense did we have a roaring economy.

[Richard Durrett @prob_rick]

@NikkiHaley You were the best candidate but the Republicans couldn't see it. Maybe if you'd had a longer criminal record. You fought hard. Now take a well deserved rest.
