“We gather here to mourn the passing of American greatness — the real thing, not cheap rhetoric from men who will never come near the sacrifice he gave so willingly, nor the opportunistic appropriation of those who lived lives of comfort and privilege while he suffered and served,” she said, her voice first choking back tears then raising to anger.

Now tattooed on Trump’s forehead.

Forever.

“Trump, meanwhile, left the White House in the presidential motorcade shortly after 10:30 a.m., as the service was underway, headed to his Virginia golf course.”

No doubt to contemplate the coming nuclear war with Canada.

Seriously, if there is a more apt scene that illustrates this §resident and his legacy?. The Jealous and quiet raging pettiness of a fake man.

It was a good sendoff with admiring words and honors. I think the Senator would be happy. It really should not be about anyone else.
Yeah, I know.

Does Meghan McCain live in Arizona? Push her for Senate! She’d spend every day sharpening her knife, looking for any opportunity to slice off Orange Hitler’s tiny dick.

Javanka had the gall to show their faces this morning, and the indecency to be so hypocritical in offering their Thoughts And Prayers ™️ to the McCain family.

So, great men and women gather to pay honor to a great senator and a greater American.

Meanwhile, the Orange Shitstain goes to play with his balls.

Figures…

Her words were sincere and they were the word of grief - This day - and this week - she and her family are entitled to their thoughts and feelings - and entitled to express themselves without some asshole belligerently & obnoxiously spewing a counter argument to their expression of grief.

“John’s voice will always come as a whisper over our shoulder — we are better than this, America is better than this,” Bush said.

That was for you, Trump. A suitable epitaph: We were better than this.

OK, OK, it was a great eulogy - I was even impressed by 43s.
But let’s not get too carried away with this ‘enemy of my enemy’ stuff.

She be crazee!
I don’t expect that’s permanently changed, even in the face of such despair.
But we’ll see…

And…
It was great to see Obama again!

Gathered at this funeral was a veritable who’s who of the people working behind the scenes (or in broad view) to take Trump down; I guarantee it. I think Trump knows this as well. His days are numbered, and that number isn’t very large.

What I have been told would be the best reaction to trump, assuming one of the Congresses chambers falls to the democrats, would be serious and sustained and penetrating investigations and public airing of all his dirty laundry (and laundered money). And especially his taxes. I’ve been told that impeachment is not the way forward. Maybe I’m hot headed about this but I want to see trump publicly humiliated in a way that Rudy Giuliani cannot spin and in a way trump’s Congressional enablers cannot ignore.

“We must dissent from the indifference. We must dissent from the apathy. We must dissent from the fear, the hatred and the mistrust. We must dissent from a nation that has buried its head in the sand, waiting in
vain for the needs of its poor, its elderly, and its sick to disappear and just blow away. We must dissent from a government that has left its young without jobs, education or hope. We must dissent from the poverty
of vision and the absence of moral leadership. We must dissent because America can do better, because America has no choice but to do better.” – Thurgood Marshall

I was driving when coverage of Obama’s remarks began on NPR. I had to pull off the road so I could give my complete attention to his words. It was so refreshing to hear complete and cogent sentences again!
