Fuck Jared Kushner and the entire Trump Crime Family.

I realize that’s not very eloquent but it’s my “very, very strong” feeling about this bastard.

“Very hopeful” for whom, Jared?

If by “very hopeful” he means the type of speech this monster delivered at his inauguration, then I suppose that statement could be true. In Trump World, everything means the opposite.

“Tonight, what you’re going to hear from President Trump is a very hopeful vision for America,” Kushner told CNBC’s Joe Kernen during an interview Thursday morning. “He’s very proud of this country. He believes that this country has incredible room to grow coming out of this pandemic.”

Yup, indeed he shirks the Washington way by shredding the Constitution. Sure enough that is something to be proud of. He breaks laws every single day.

Kushner’s comments come after Vice President Mike Pence closed his convention speech on Wednesday by promising that Trump would “make America great again… again.”

You know, gaslighting is one thing and I understand that the regime has nothing else to offer in the way of - well, anything. But what’s quoted above is so far into blather and nonsense, it can only have effect on the most brain dead amongst us.

…but will Kush and Miller make him read it off a teleprompter? or will he go rogue and turn a beautifully crafted paean to fascism into an incomprehensible word salad of grievance, mispronounced words and onanism?

Stay tuned

Why don’t we all just use the $50 pill that cures COVID-19? Here is a clip of Irene “Granny” Ryan promoting it:

“President Trump has had a steady hand.” He said that his father-in-law had “made a lot of right decisions.”

Trumpy has been all over the place on policy and values, and there are tweets to prove it Jared. And a lot of right decisions is 180 K dead you lying sack of shit. And has for a physical examination of “a steady hand” Jared, Donald needs two hands to hold a glass water, needs someone to walk with him down a ramp, and can’t figure out how to close an umbrella, ella, ella.

through the pandemic “President Trump has had a steady hand.”

Can’t argue with that statement.

“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” - Truth, regardless of attribution.

This is dated now, as the stats are only through 8/4, but add 20,000 more covid deaths and 5 more rounds of golf in your head. I wish stuff like this could be superimposed behind Trump during his speech tonight.
