Said Cadet-Bones-Spurs and Do-Nothing POTUS on Russian Bounty Killing!

How dare Trump…
There is no bottom to Trump’s vileness and indecency!

And you know what else, Trump thinks of the US Military as his props on a parade…just ask Melania’s event planner ex-friend Wilkoff! In her book, she wrote that Trump wanted an inaugural parade like Kim Jong-un!

Maybe not, but it WILL light a fire under people’s asses and get them out to vote.

Exactly. We don’t need Trumps voters to win this thing. Getting our voters riled up and ready to vote is what matters.

The military is already edging away from him slowly (and not turning their backs on their retreat either).

I don’t know how he expects to win an election when he alienates so many different segments of the demographic.

No way to spin this moral depravity from Cadet Bone Spurs. The part of the story about going with Kelly on Farher’s Day to visit the grave of Kelly’s son, a Marine who was killed in Afghanistan, and then proceeding to spit insults, is just horrific and . . . deplorable. On Father’s Day. At his son’s gravesite. What. The. Fuck.

Whatever else Trump is, he is first and foremost, and above all else, a total asshole.

Peeling that demographic away from Trump is a very significant thing. I do not underestimate its importance.

so many cannot bother to inform themselves with anything other than sites that reinforce their entrenched views.

Were you to ask a representative group if they were aware of any of these issues… I would wager a trip for two to Shangri-La that they wouldn’t even know, much less be able to discuss the item.

Maybe we could get him gone if we promise him a monument? Or even a t-shirt?
