      But Maxwell said that she never saw Trump act in an inappropriate manner.

      She said that shortly after requesting a pardon and then being moved to a less secure prison.

      Buuut that’s totally unrelated, right?

        After congratulating Trump on his “historic victory” and expressing her admiration for him at the start of it. The ass-kissing was so obvious it was embarrassing.

        Of course, this all depends on her definition of “inappropriate”. Because I can guarantee her definition does not match mine.

      The difference is a lot of people ARE saying him raping kids was bad. Aside from him, I don’t think anyone else has said they want him to be dictator

        Plenty of bootlickers are. Guarantee Stephen Miller is one of them. But those that are saying it are thinking about who they want next after this clown show.

    For the first time in history, after even a triumphant Washington refused to be treated as a king, all the power of the US government was handed to a single individual …

    … and he’s a fucking idiot who can barely read. Great job patriots 👍

      Idiot, yes but at least he’s not a child rapist who was best friends with a convicted human trafficking paedo for about 2 decades. And who had many, so so maaaaany failed businesses. Who was a reality TV star in a real shitty TV show. And has over 30 recent felony convictions plus numerous fines for numerous cons over the years. And was judged to have raped E Jean Carroll. Who also tried to spearhead an insurrection whilst simultaneously stealing top secret documents to sell to hostile countries or give to his boss putin!!

      Because yhe 'murican population would never vote that type of person in, TWICE, would they?
      Oh, wait…

      Seriously at least make it a smart fascist. I get that he is just a set up for vance, but even vance is such an unbelievable pussy. Hitler and Mussolini did some time using the military. Stalin and Sadam at least acted as violent thugs for their party and did a bunch of actual crimes before taking over. Vance feels like just a guy this orange dipshit picked.

          No no. They’ve got a point. Just because it’s not all Americans, doesn’t mean it’s not indicative of the majority of voting Americans.

          I think we kinda deserve it right now. Want the insults to stop? Maybe we should take a note from other countries that have had dictators and do something about it. Fast.

    A lot of people also say “tax the rich to oblivion” and “housing food and water is a human right!”. Will you do that too?

    I’m sure there are some out there. The thing is, they don’t full understand the implications of what that transition would entail has how disastrous it would be, not only to the US itself, but the global balance as well. These are people who never bothered to learn history or to think beyond the rim of their MAGA cap.

          Just go on the Nextdoor app. There certainly are people still rooting for everything he’s doing and salivating at the thought of ICE coming to “save” our blue state. It’s always been weird to me that while we have total freedom to move anywhere within the country, these fuckers choose to live in a blue state and just complain about it constantly.

      He’s been using the line “lots of people are saying” for a long time to say how great he is. Check out this old Barbara Walters interview: https://youtu.be/mW1NPLeTf_c

      Trump: The plaza is a very valuable property. Everybody told me, Oh, you paid too much. You paid too much. Now they’re all saying what a great deal he made.

      Barbara: No they’re not.

      I love the look on his face when she says that. Today he’d probably pivot into saying how unfair that is, and maybe mention her vagina being dirty or something. Back then, he had to sit and take the fact that his bullshit was called out and he’s has nothing.

      This was in 1990. He bought the New York Plaza hotel in 1988 for $390M. By 1992, it was $550M in debt and was in bankruptcy.

        I want to hear them say it. I want them to publicly come out and clearly, concisely say, "I want Donald Trump to be the Dictator in charge of the United States of America. " I bet these chicken shit fascists will continue to hide behind executive orders and the resemblance of democracy.

          Oh, pretty soon his morons will be chanting it in the streets, while waving their guns, backed up by ICE goons.

          Remember when he joked about running for President in the first place, then soon it was, “a lot of people say I should” and…???.. PROFIT!!!

          For him, that is. Like every petty tyrant he doesn’t give a shit about bankrupting the casino country, as long as he can grift millions of the carcass.

      He won’t, Trump is a test to see how much shit we’ll take before we stand up for ourselves, and we’re failing. Miserably.
