Uncomfortably Numb

A little prick that makes me feel a little sick...I have become uncomfortably numb.

Playing golf, wolfing down Quarter Pounders with Cheese, enjoying days filled with "Executive Time," and looking forward to his Diet Cokes being even frostier with his new $24 million fridges on Air Force One.

Almost daily reminders from my conservative friends on Facebook that "He gave up his billionaire lifestyle so that he could serve our country."

On and on and on and on.

The only change is that we now pay for it. (Meanwhile, school children in Baltimore wear coats and hats in class.)

The low key response from Trump and his cabinet to the Mueller firing bombshell was not expected. This tells me that Moron Orange is at the point where feels untouchable as the GOP will always protect him. He heaps praise on local police because he will use them to keep protesters in check when Mueller is fired. I am trying to stay hopeful but I have a feeling this is gonna end in violence.

He hates America. It is obvious he's a willing Russian agent and following Putin's orders. Removing regulations, adding tariffs and not staffing the State Dept. How are these decisions supposed to help America. This will destroy us and he knows it. He wants to destroy America and Putin is giving him directions. Trump blames America for his failure as a businessman and this is his way of getting revenge. He views Putin as his savior and feels indebted to him.

He is getting a $24 million dollar fridge for AF1 and Dems have not said a word about it. This type of passiveness is not inspiring me to come out in November. Pelosi and Schumer need to go. Often times Pelosi seems confused and is not prepared for the tactics the GOP and Trump are using. Schumer will get played in negotiations because he's using old style politics against a con artist. This is not "normal" politics anymore. Dems will have to think outside the box when dealing with this menace to democracy.

people...now us taxpayers, in addition to the Russian Oligarchs.

"Serving the country" that's a laugh, unless you are one of the Koch Brothers class of American oligarchs.
