Trump. BELIEVE him. He ‘denies’ he had anything to do with what you DON’T like (and might be illegal) but BY GOD AND BY TRUMP he wants you to know that he ‘could’ have done it.

Here we have an ex-president who, because of his severe personality disorder, literally cannot accept that the First Amendment means people can criticize political figures and it doesn’t matter that it’s “totally one-sided.”

The usual argle bargle.

I look forward to the morning I wake up, read the news, and there is absolutely nothing about a Trump.

I’d actually pay good money to watch a cage fight between Trump and Baldwin. Couple of insufferable blowhards having at each other. What’s not to love?

Baldwin is a flawed person (not casting stones) but compared to TFG he is Gandhi

Very true.

If SNL is a campaign contribution, what is Fox News?

A trump, a Giuliani and a Gaetz walk into a barred room…

Then they slam the door and lock it.

Now THAT’s a punch line.

Colbert’s take on this was pretty funny. Supposedly Who? called out “Jimmy Kimmel and the other late night mischief makers.”

Colbert was annoyed he was lumped in with the group.

He cared more about his image, TV ratings, and slamming anyone who was his perceived enemy. The man was clueless as to the enormity of being POTUS. Meanwhile under his direction, 500.000+ Americans died due to gross negligence and failure to allow scientists to manage Covid-19 once it arrived in the U.S.

Well I hate to say that your wish will probably not come true in our lifetime. You see Donald bred, and the spawn he bred have also bred. And just remember that of the spawn Donald produced, one of them is a almost a generation behind the first three Trump spawn.
