- a clear sign he's taken a page from putin's book on how to manipulate and usurp the media to his advantage. He's also terribly insecure in the fact not as many people showed up for his inauguration throws shade on the legitimacy of his presidency, and his tremendous unpopularity among the majority of Americans. Kudos to Ms. Waters for saying what the media won't say - calling him a liar. I hope the mainstream media grow a spine and keep calling him and his ilk out when they do lie. They're trying to normalize their constant generation of falsehoods and expecting the public to buy it. Simple-minded folk who voted for him will unfortunately.

Not that she was perfect and has not gotten caught at least embellishing, but for fuck's sake this guy lies in his sleep! Why did the deplorables and their favorite networks and radio shock jocks seem to hold honesty as a key reason to vote for or against someone? (that was rhetorical). Now its not that important for those folks.

that was yesterday after calling the protestors "mindless twats" and today my mother's hair person repeated it to her as fact.

to 50 mil a week - basically the most significant voice in 30 years

3 hrs - from some think tank hack paid to come up with this shit

ignoring that is the biggest political mistake in history and why we have this disaster, more than any single reason

The press, Democrats in office, the foreign press and the voters at large need to keep poking, needling, harassing him and more 24/7/365! When his own staffers tell us his many weaknesses, that's were we all ne to continuously hit him.

Not sure he'll fold entirely but if we keep him mad and make him keep lashing out, he might end up getting himself out of office.

All Republicans need to go. They're poison to representative government. They have no adherence to the Constitution. Unless we hear Republicans telling the truth, they're enabling the lies. Their time is over.

to unsettle peoples' minds from reality

What is, isn't. What isn't, is. It's so confusing it doesn't matter
anymore because there's no figuring it out.


Do you feel the apathy from that mindset?

They want apathy so they can do what they want to do, and the
public should have no say in it. This is power, privilege, dictatorship.

the next 100 days we need to stay vigilant what is with all these executive orders being signed.

Maxine Waters is angry I don't blame her, we are too. I think Lindsay Graham is pissed off too, he muttered something about the illegal vote, which he said can do damage to our democracy. I think I will list all these executive orders, I am particularly angry about the gag order for abortions. Trump is taking his revenge on women. Oh one more thing him showing us his tax returns witch kellyanne said he will never show them. What ignorance/arrogance.
