He's doing his merry little "victory" dance to the lies that AG Barr is spinning.
And it has has made him crazier than he was before the Mueller report.
He's all set to close the borders, wipe out Obamacare, cut off money to South American countries that need those funds to fight their own homegrown terrorism, and who knows what else he's planning to do on his own? (Is he going to lock up Hillary all by himself?)
The reason he's getting away with this is because the entire Republican Party is aiding and abetting him. And this is his protection. It also makes them a criminal organization: An extension of the Trump crime family.
We are the majority. Yet we are getting fucked every single day this creature is in the White House. He's playing to a minority of haters/bigots/pricks and there isn't one goddamn thing we can do about it except vote.
Ahh, the vote. That vote is 19 months away, and if he loses, add a couple of months to that before a new president is sworn in.
Look at the damage this fiend had done in two and a half years. And imagine the damage he can do in the next 21 months.
We're playing by the Constitution. We're playing by the laws of the land. The orange beast isn't. So are we going to sit around and let ourselves and all of America continue to be fucked? It seems so. There's no popular uprising in sight. There's no cavalry on the horizon. There's nothing at all to save us from this horror.
How will the future judge us? Sheep? Law-abiding automatons? I don't know. But what I do know is that the laws of our society are no longer in play. Yet, we continue to play by them. We've got to be among the stupidest shits in the history of the world.

(6,799 posts)Just wait until another madman comes along. One that is intelligent, clever, charming, and manipulative. We will sit on the sidelines trying to explain to one another, how did this ever happen. We are the majority and it is happening right before our wondering and bedazzled eyes.

Right now, I think within our own minds we should realize that he is but the pussy head of a deep infection that pervades the Republican party. The infection may indeed kill us and the Republicans will never realize why. It is ugly!

(10,885 posts)and manipulated the system to suit his own needs and beliefs as this monster has. Where are the checks and balances on this madman? He is running rampant with his cruel and crazy ideas, and there seems to be no way to stop him. He has become even more emboldened by the Barr report and there is serious danger ahead if he isn't restrained. I fear for our country.
