He's not going to denounce what he feels in his heart given that heart is black and f****** putrid

He's weak. He's an effin' coward. In his time as the unpres, he's never confronted or fired anyone directly face to face. It's always been via tweet or having one of his acolytes do his dirty work for him, and just grandiose statements after the fact. This ass has never confronted anyone directly, probably ever. He's a scared little man who is scared witless of being seen as weak. He's a piss poor excuse for a human being (duh!). Just listen to the gutless way he answers direct questions about his people. He praises them to no end in public, while undercutting them in one way or another, behind the scenes. He's a feckless, stupid maroon who likes to talk big publicly, a bellicose bully, but underneath it all, I think he actually realizes his shortcomings to some degree.

Do you really think he spoke face to face with his proposed nomination for DCI, voicing his 'concerns'? I seriously doubt it. He wanted another 'yes' man. He doesn't actually have the cojones to withdraw the nomination himself face to face with the nominee - it was likely done by one of his lickspittle asskissers like Mulvaney. (And how many times has he walked out of meetings with Dem congressional leaders already - other than grandstanding, do you really think he had any concept on how to negotiate with them in good faith? Better to be seen as 'strong' than look like the totally ignorant ass he is - especially after having his butt handed back to him in that televised meeting with Schumer & Pelosi a year or so ago, where he said he'd accept 'responsibility' for whatever it was they were talking about [Sorry, don't remember the circumstance]).

The man's a legend in his own mind (and apparently his idjit supporters). I'm ranting -

Not at the next election, but now. Impeachment proceedings should start in earnest immediately. He has been stoking the flames of racism since he forever. As for the NRA, they should be outlawed. Enough is enough. Every time Trump shows his ugly face, there should be protesters calling him a racist. Give him no peace what so ever. He should be in jail. Words almost fail me with the contempt I feel about that imposter.
