The mere act of trying to cover trump seems often to have been like being in combat. SHEESH.

Remember when guards had to escort Katy Tur out after a trump event for her own safety, after that bastard stirred up the crowd and name-checked her specifically?

If I were still working, I'd feel seriously unsettled - to say the least.

We know he's a coward.

Besides, he couldn't sit still long enough to attempt to watch a play. Let alone understand it.

I honestly don't know if I want to be conscious for the next day and a half, or try to sleep my way to the inauguration.

Heaven only knows what the psycho has up his sleeve in the next 33 1/2 hours.

I hope they change the mattresses and carpet. No doubt Melanie has pee'd on the mattress... to entertain him and let him enjoy his perverse belief that Joe and Jill will be sleeping on Slovenian piss stains.

Do I really care that he's got a piss fetish? No.

Do I care that Russia likely used it against him? Yes.

Noticed you joined a little bit ago, perhaps to have fun with us with these it might not be over constant posts?

Buddy...its so freakin over for Trump and his minions. We celebrate as we enjoy the last hours of his disgrace go slowly knowing the MAGA tears flow.

And not only is it over for Trump, it only gets way worse from here for him and his family, his businesses, and his putrid supporters who wasted all these years instead of fucusing on improving their lives.

It has been a nightmare four years, with this last year a sort of slow-burn trauma that has amounted to a living hell for millions of Americans.

I fervently hope Trump will be convicted in the Senate trial, and that the Senate will vote to forbid him from ever holding national office again, and that Trump and his family wind up in prison.

Bring back the witnesses that weren't allowed to testify in the 1st impeachment trial, examine the funds that have been bilked by Trump properties. There's enough material to carry this through to the next election.

And, he isn't just the worst President in US history, he's one of the worst in the history of Presidents - worst President of the Hair Club for Men.

point to pardons as an admission of guilt for those who accept it, and if he's pardoning co-conspirators that could, by logic but not established precedent, boomerang on he who offers the pardons.
