We always knew this is how it would end. From the moment he was elected

We knew he would do something corrupt and get impeached.
We knew there would be a national crisis that he would be incapable of handling and put us all in danger.

We all said it. We knew it. Too bad we are all going to pay the price.

November cannot get here soon enough to get rid of this narcissist asshole.

an unprovoked war, or dropping a nuclear bomb on some ME country just because he could. I never suspected it would come home to roost in the form of a killer virus.

I’m very angry that I (and others) will suffer because so many of us have been shouting from the rooftops about his deceit, his lying and his stupidity.

This is not only on Trump but also in the backs of his ardent supporters who have kissed his ass for four years.

It seems Mr. Putin, like the GOP, underestimated the importance of a functioning American government. I don't think he is smirking. This virus will not be bribed with the trillions he has stolen from the Russian people. Mr. Putin cannot rob it. Mr. Putin cannot jail, poison or disappear it. What can Mr. Putin do? He can get it.

Indeed, take note everyone: the government is not the problem. The Republican Party is.

Lock him up.

As long as himself and his small inner-circle of oligarchs don't get too sick or die from C-19, he'll keep pocketing the billions and won't care how many will suffer.

it is the fault of the media. It is being manufactured to bring him down. I saw something tonight asking people to pray for him because he under attack. I don’t know how anyone could watch the press conference today and still think this is a hoax. But they do. THIS is what we are up against. I hope they wake up and start to understand what this crisis is about. It has nothing to do with bringing tRump down although if there is any justice in this world he will be kicked out of the White House in November. The madness must end before he destroys everything.

I remember the conversation. I had similar fears, but I had to chase them away, and of course, there were so many other things on our plates that pandemic had to take a back seat to Russian asset, dementia, etc. I knew it would be some kinda clusterfrick crapshow. And boy is it ever. If we make it through this nightmare. And if I hear anything more regarding his hideous spawn and a dynasty, I will completely lose what shit I have left. Just NO.

He has exceeded my worst dystopian nightmares. And he is nowhere near finished with us yet. There is no bottom for him. I don't think most of us can even conceive of the nightmare that he is capable of unleashing upon us.

Another four years is unthinkable. I honestly will not want to live through it.
