From my Trumpist neighbor's Facebook timeline -- the most sickening thing I've seen yet











Yes, he has, for decades, trouble paying his bills, has a Hispanic surname, and has serious health problems and big hospital bills (he's insured but I don't know with what), and yet thinks Benedict and the repukes are on his side. (Yes, he's for the border wall too. He posts for the border wall more than anything else).

# Picture of little white 5 year old boy saying to a black man with pants way low: "I learned how to pull mine up when i was 2"

I'm sure some are bigots to begin with and simply keep being that way, while others pick it up from RW media/churches.

As I recall, conservatives prayed for President Obama, and they were very clever about it, citing Psalm 109, verses 7 through 13, but not quoting it. I'll quote it because it's all biblical and stuff:

7 When he is tried, let him be found guilty,
and may his prayers condemn him.
8 May his days be few;
may another take his place of leadership.
9 May his children be fatherless
and his wife a widow.
10 May his children be wandering beggars;
may they be driven[a] from their ruined homes.
11 May a creditor seize all he has;
may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor.
12 May no one extend kindness to him
or take pity on his fatherless children.
13 May his descendants be cut off,
their names blotted out from the next generation.

Hit every goddamn branch of the stupid tree on his way crashing to the ground.

These fucking harmful idiots make me blood mad.

I think Trump has turned me into a werewolf sheerly by the power of raw hatred of the pathetic wretch and his moronic MAGAts.

FML, I can't wait for this shit to be over.

Forbes magazine continues picking on poor Donald Trump with yet another piece on how President Griftypants continues to make money off his real estate fiefdom ("empire" is too grand a word) despite pretending he'd turned the business over to his idiot sons. This time, it's a careful look at Donald Trump's roughly $35 million in profits from the sale of various properties in 2018. And wouldn't you know it, a chunk of those deals involved selling Las Vegas apartments to buyers whose identities were hidden behind limited liability companies (LLCs), which may not technically violate the law, but isn't exactly what anyone would call "transparent." OK, not what anyone outside Trumpworld would call "transparent."

Forbes did the analysis by looking at Trump's mandatory federal financial filings and local property records. And while the magazine didn't turn up anything illegal, there were a few deals that had at least a whiff of potential impropriety, but only if you're, like, suspicious of the most honest man ever to hold the office of President.

For instance, there's this little bitty deal that involved the federal government having to approve the transaction:

More than half of that $35 million came from a single deal, in which Trump and business partners offloaded a federally subsidized housing complex in Brooklyn for about $900 million. The president held a 4% stake in the property, according to his personal financial disclosure report. After subtracting roughly $370 million in debt, Forbes estimates Trump walked away with $20 million or so before taxes. The deal required approval from officials inside the Department of Housing & Urban Development, which rolls up to Donald Trump.

If it says "I hereby resign the Office of President of the United States", that image would be far less offensive.
