Trump's Modus Operandi is to

distract us.

He gets up on his tippy toes just like a grunting hog in an orange tutu and little fairy wings and twirls around and around while scattering shiny confetti in all directions so we look at him only. Meanwhile behind the curtain his nasty minions slump along sliming the country.

But the overwhelming feeling is that if we stop watching him he’ll destroy us also.

Rachel was so right to say she was not going to watch him or his tweets. She said from the beginning that she would not be distracted by his latest tweet. She was brilliant to choose that strategy!

1. I agree with Rachel.

2. The real daily destruction is systematic, inexorable and rarely mentioned.

3. Distract and overwhelm.

"Overwhelm" as in "blasting us with a fire hose that constantly sprays massive amounts of shit."

7. Brimstone or...

Someone cut a big smelly trump.
That's what happens when you eat Big Macs and fish sandwiches in bed.

8. He Is An Immature Lying Hypocrite

His saying there should be total transparacy is laughable....how about those tax returns Mr Liar-In-Chief? How about some transparency there Orange Hitler?

He is what he is I blame the Repukes in Congress for running interference for him. Far right Cretinous jerks like Nunes, Gowdy, and Gohmert are one thing, but the non frothing at the mouth republicans are another and just as guilty.

Our democracy is in serious jeopardy. We need some republican heroes like Smedley Butler once was.

9. without trump and tweets traffic on DU would drop by what, half? nt

[lunatica]

10. Pretty doubtful

DU has probably picked up quite a few people looking for a place they can trust who seek truth in politics, but it doesn’t seem any different as far as postings or subject matter.

Although normally there’s far more variety than there’s been lately. I kinda miss the other things we used to discuss here.
