    How the fuck is this bloated piece of shit still in charge. It’s absolutely clear to anyone with half a brain cell that he is absolutely demented, yet nothing is done.

      Because 77 million pieces of shit voted for him, and 90 million bigger pieces of shit didn’t care about democracy, so you get fascism.

      Are you aware it hasn’t even been one year? There’s three more to go. How can anyone tolerate this? He needs to be removed.

        Are we still pretending he’ll leave at the end of his second term? He’s a dictator for life. He launched an insurrection last time he had to leave. He won’t leave that office while he’s alive.

          I can see Trump being removed if the oligarchs find a better puppet. The line must go up.

          That’s an extreme solution, but if it’s the only one, it’s the one.

            I’m not suggesting anything. His health is terrible. He’s obviously on his way out.

      Republican party is dead in the water without him. The Democrat’s idea of appealing to his voters is somewhat right they’re just too stupid to understand the cult of trump and that there’s this entire left voting block they habe alienated.

    Quick, get SCOTUS to rule whether acting president of Venezuela is eligible for current president of US. We need an answer now before more countries get added.

    Why are they using AI to clean his image? That image is so 10 years ago. Show him as is. Time is playing along with the regime now too.

    I am the locallly sworn Mayor of the area I live. I don’t work directly with civil issues so much as barroom disputes & disagreements. I know where I lay politically (The Radical Middle). That is not of importance when breaking down happy hour arguments for stunted mentally grown adults that maintain the local economy. I tell you what there are fewer & fewer trump supporters than ever before in my area. I do believe some of our local 2A fellas are learning to tie their shoes by themselves. Somewhat proud in a minimalist way. Whatever. I still don’t really like ‘em but they are beginning to be angry towards the appropriate demographic. So, that’s kinda hopeful.

        Yeah, probably has gotten to this level for a tiny fraction of humbleness to shut them up a little bit. Still racist misogynist Aholes that fortunately (for the rest of us) are just pretty quiet with the trump noise. I am at least grateful for that.

    Honestly, yeah. Let Trump rule Venezuela, and get someone else to govern the US. Sucks for Venezuelans, but what doesn’t? And he can do a lot less damage there.

      I think he has fantasies about being the absolute ruler there, sitting on top of an ocean of oil. Way better than the Saudis and their stupid desert. His is tropical, and bigger than Jeffrey’s island. And as a Monarchy, he doesn’t allow extradition to the United States.

        I’ve heard recently that there’s actually a good chance that ocean of oil was a lie to gain more influence in OPEC. But as long as it’s a lie he can believe, I don’t think Trump will mind.

          MAGA is trying to convince us that the oil isn’t the motivation, that there’s not enough oil to care about, or it will be years before they can fix the infrastructure to get the oil, etc.

          Meanwhile, they keep hijacking tankers full of oil, and China, Russia, Cuba, and others, have been buying tons of Venezuelan oil for years. Seems like there is plenty to steal.

            Oh, there’s absolutely oil. No doubt about that. It’s the claim that Venezuela has the largest reserves in the world, that I’m doubting. But even if they had only a third of the claimed amount, they’d still have an enormous amount of oil.

              If it’s Trump’s oil, it’s the biggest oil deposit in the universe. He’s probably convinced himself that it somehow drinks from the Saudi’s milkshake, making his oil so much sweeter.
