Hard To Believe There Was ...

1. Serious shade!

Thank you, Maestro.

[soldierant]

27. He is probably the dumbest who achieved the position through an election.

But through history, inbreeding has produced some real doozies. Several among the Hapsburgs alone.

[DTomlinson]

2. Trump is what happens when you mix right-wing talk radio with tabloid celebrity narcissism.

[stillcool]

3. my ears hurt reading that

[Irish_Dem]

4. Stupid, and a narcissistic criminal sociopath.

I am hoping the US can survive the damage he has done.

[Mr.Bill]

5. Trump is

A poor man's idea of a rich man

A stupid man's idea of a smart man

A weak man's idea of a strong man

[erronis]

16. And no woman's idea of a real man.

I'm projecting here, not having personal knowledge of such things....

[soldierant]

26. As a woman, I'll validate that.

[ad121rome]

6. Agreed

All the above. An idiot with too many followers. Our educational system must really suck when it comes down to teaching civics and government. Its the old saw, if you don’t learn from the past you are forced to repeat it.

[Grokenstein]

7. GOP: "Oh, just wait!"

"We can do worse!"

[sandensea]

13. +1

Their 2024 nominee:

18. These sociopaths create an unsafe world purposely so they can claim we need the guns they love.

If you could 100% guarantee them that they'd never again actually need a gun, they'd still want to own loads of them. And yes, I realize that most people own plenty of things they don't need. It's just sad to me that so many people have guns at the top of their list of desire.

20. Notice the short barrel on the weapon she's holding?

That gun was designed for one purpose, close quarters combat. This is no hunting or home defense weapon. When we get
around to passing some sensible gun laws, one I'd like to see is if you want to own an AR15/AK47, close combat like
above picture, and any others deemed unnecessary for hunting, is that you have to register said gun into a national
database. So we can return it to it's rightful owner after being reported stolen. Any weapon law enforcement finds who's
serial number is not in the database gets destroyed and someone gets fined in court. Then we send ATF/FBI to KKK,
Proud Boys, 3%ers gatherings.

23. I know nothing about guns, except how anxiety-producing it is that nearly every day someone

is shooting in our neighborhood. Can't tell who, though. And there's no way to make them stop because there are no noise ordinances in our township and, ya know, 2A!!! And Rs are in the majority around here. There's also a lot of loud fireworks-setting-off around here. Whenever anyone dares complain about it on the "neighborhood" community web site, they get told to go live in the awful cities where people are shooting each other all the time.

Sorry. It's just so irksome.

Anyway, as I was saying, I don't know much about guns, but you seem to and what you say sounds good to me!

[Joinfortmill]

8. Yup. Lots of static.

[misanthrope]

9. Only because a sobering and frightful number of Americans

are even dumber than Trump.

[gademocrat7]

10. So very true.

[Dakota Flint]

11. Such kindness from Stephen King

I wouldn't have given it any human characteristics at all, but then again I'm not a famous horror author...

[Evolve Dammit]

12. Great depiction. I would like to see a class action lawsuit for US trauma/PTSD for

the last 4 years of sociopathic neglect, harm, malicious intent and consequences thereof. The toll this asshole perpetrated on us is incalculable but nonetheless, substantial. Our children bear the brunt of his willful negligence. He deserves to be charged with criminal abuse and hauled to the Hague. In cuffs and wearing orange. But he won't, will he?

[Upthevibe]

14. Kick....n/t

[bearssoapbox]

15. That's one thing about Stephen King,

he not only hits the nail on the head...

He he obliterates it all the way through to the other side of the board.

[Blue Owl]

17. K&R

[lagomorph777]

19. That's the scariest thing King ever wrote.

[Martin68]

21. Yes, it really still is very hard to believe. And it is still very scary, because it could happen

again with someone smarter if we don't repair our voting system, our impeachment process, and other holes in the constitution and our political system the Trump exposed.

[BobTheSubgenius]

22. I've long known that Stephen King is absolutely great at Englishing.

Some of the descriptions in his books are wonderful. Until recent years, though, I had no idea how political he is, nor, how wonderfully liberal.

A long and good life to you, sir!

[dalton99a]

24. Kick

[movingviolation]

25. *rump and his followers are an obvious cautionary tale, made flesh.

[Oldem]

28. King has the right metaphor. If this nation had treated everything dump said

as white noise, we'd have avoided the worst failed presidency in our history and the most miserable period for Americans. Most of have learned our lesson, now. But wait till (and if) he resurfaces as a source of static, again; the media will be all over it. His magats will be making life miserable for the rest of us.
