I wish a reporter would ask him what the difference is between Universal Mail-In-Voting and Absentee Voting.

He got spanked by the governors and Republican leadership of Congress and he thinks that’s a victory? He has such a strange idea of winning.

This man is beneath contempt, as are his supporters. He will blow up our system of government which has functioned well for over 200 years for his own pathetic needs, if not stopped by truly patriotic Americans.

It’s simple. One you mail in and the other you send by mail. It’s clear as night and day.

dangerous Universal Mail-In-Voting (not Absentee Voting, which I totally support!)

Pity the fool who cannot tell the difference between mail-in and absentee voting. Or not.

I was only kidding, like when I asked Russia to find Hillary’s emails, or the Chinese to help with my re-election, or that you should ingest bleach or stick a flashlight up your ass. Just trolling the main-stream media because I am such a stable genius.

I know that this comment is tantamount to beating the proverbial dead horse -BUT

Trump also declared that he “Must know Election results on the night of the Election, not days, months, or even years later!”

There is so much nonsense slathered on so thick in this statement that it defies a sensible response.

Q: What is the difference between Donald J. Trump and a bucket of shit?

His narcissistic personality disorder (malignant variety) pushes him to probe for weaknesses or expose opportunities for his self serving mischief. And to assess the push back. Too much push back from the right and he tacks to this idea that he got media to discuss voting fraud. He and trumpism must be crushed this November. I will crawl over glass to vote, masked and with distancing.

How the fuck anyone can support such an obvious buffoon remains a mystery to me.

Who had this on their 2020 checklist?

The co-founder of the Federalist Society, Steven Calabresi, is calling for trump to be re-impeached over his threat to postpone the election in November.

How long before he torches the White House in order to distract us from other bad news? I’m guessing he’ll do that some time in October. If not, he’ll almost certainly do it the day after the election if he loses.
