This man does something disgusting every damn day. I didn’t think that was possible – until we got stuck with Trump as a “president”. I’m thinking he’s sliding into dementia faster every day, and that’s a problem. We don’t need an idiot to be president.
We don’t need someone who is trashing our country. We don’t need someone who is trying to find an excuse to put us into martial law. We don’t need someone who has lost every ally we had. We don’t need someone who has wrecked our nation so badly that it’s going to take literally decades to fix it, if it can even *be* fixed! From Raw Story:
President Donald Trump sparked outrage online after giving an address from the Oval Office following conservative activist Charlie Kirk’s murder on Wednesday. Trump blamed Democrats for Kirk’s murder in the address, accusing them of comparing “wonderful Americans like Charlie to Nazis and the world’s worst mass murderers and criminals.” Trump also did not mention recent incidents of right-wing sympathizers attacking Democrats in his call to end political violence. “This kind of rhetoric is directly responsible for the terrorism that we’re seeing in our country today, and it must stop right now,” Trump said.
Excuse me? Democrats are responsible? Get outta here! What a bunch of hooey. How about he remove the log in his eye so he can remove the specks in ours? There is so much he could have said. And there is so much he should NOT have said.
Political commentators and analysts responded to Trump’s claims on social media. “What an absolutely disgusting speech from the Oval Office,” Republicans Against Trump posted on X. “Trump is truly incapable of uniting the American people, even in times of tragedy. Disgraceful.” “In his Oval Office address on political violence, Trump lists the attempt on his life, the Scalise shooting, and attacks on ICE agents,” Max Berger, co-founder of the Momentum Training Institute, posted on Bluesky. “He does not mention Jan 6th, the attack on the Pelosi family, the Hortman murders, the kidnapping attempt on Gretchen Whitmer, or the fire at Gov Shapiro’s house.”
Yup, got that right. He mentions a very few things and nothing else. There are only events that happened that he feels are worthy of mention by him. And of course, had to mention his assassination attempts. Meh. Does the man even have a brain left to remember things? Or does Susie have to keep a notebook around to at least write down everything he’s said or done? Oof. That has to be stressful, and there are all his Truth Social rants at oh dark hundred. They must be going nuts trying to keep track of his actions and speaking.
“The issue is primarily gun violence, not political violence,” Alan Eyre, distinguished diplomatic fellow at the Middle East Institute, posted on X. “Every country has political factions, but only the US has this many deaths by guns.” “Charlie Kirk was defending political violence committed by Israel & white fundamentalist of USA,” political analyst Vikas Sai posted on X. “He became a victim of the same.”
“Trump lying in an Oval Office address that Charlie Kirk’s killing was caused by people comparing him and his organization to Nazis—lying because he has no idea, but declared it anyway—pairs interestingly with some prominent Trump fans saying they hope this can be their Reichstag Fire,” Nicholas Grossman, international relations professor at the University of Illinois, posted on Bluesky.
How many times can I say Trump is a lunatic? This is making me nuts. He’s not pulling America together after this shocking event. He’s trying to sow discontent between Democrats and Republicans, MAGA and ‘thank heavens” non-MAGA. But he’s losing MAGA people every day. And I hope that it continues.
Friends, I know everybody begs you for money. I promise you that of all of the outlets bugging you for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest working. We’re a bunch of old, disabled people, except one writer in his mid-50s. But the rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the ability to continue our quest to tell the truth about Trump and ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thanks. Ursula
An invertebrate lying swine comes to mind. Somehow has been allowed back into Oval Office, where he has converted into a sty. From where he can open his pulpit dementing yap. From where he incoherently snorts all and sundry of the made-up about himself, and from where he twists history to falsely tie any tragic event to issues of himself. What a vag of a swine. History will come to see that he lied and caused chaos because he had nothing constructive or good to offer – only selfish what’s in it fo me. He blamed others for his own short comings. Generations will learn he was nothing but a lying, pathetic con man with no ideas, only destructive grifting schemes. Eventually he’ll be gone for good, but those who supported, enabled and encouraged him, should not be forgotten for their part. They too, will continue to reek of his foul stench and the stink from his pen.
