If you are bothered by deranged billionaires murdering millions of the world’s most impoverished people or screaming that the pope is in the employ of the Chinese Communist Party, you must be a communist yourself. Why those loony lefties couldn’t even resist using the weather machine to wreck Trump’s wonderful July 4th parade!

OK. As bizarre as it may seem to you, most Alaskans will understand:

“because the king salmon were running and he wanted to fish”

as a completely reasonable explanation. Frankly, after that I’d have to think long and hard about not voting for him1.

He actually does come across as normal, maybe not well suited for public office but normal.

I’m going to disagree with this:

I think it’s more that Trump has hopefully killed the peculiar brand of GOP patriotism we’ve been subjected to for the last 46 years or longer. That is the “America unconditionally love my version or leave it,” patriotism. Patriotism that proudly says that justice means punishment for you, protection for me.

“I’m Mad at Trump”
Gotta love this guy!
Grab em by the pussy-ok
Pay off porn stars-so what
Kids in cages-what’s the big deal
Convicted Felon-he is misunderstood
Instigated an insurrection-rigged election
But screw up a Fair----Well that’s a bridge too far!!!
