"SNIP......
Former President Trump called for a boycott of Major League Baseball after it decided to move its All-Star Game out of Georgia in protest of the states new bill signed into law that tightens voting restrictions, The Hill reports.
Said Trump: Boycott baseball and all of the woke companies that are interfering with Free and Fair Elections. Are you listening Coke, Delta, and all!
......SNIP"

(118,022 posts)somewhere will not get more tax cuts and thus money they will never spend. The lot of people in the middle and working classes, as well as the poor, will be improved with Democratic policy. The GOP has to help this lot if they want to win elections. Cry for the billionaires who will not get money they will never see, touch, smell or use. Cry for the billionaires who have to do policy that helps others if they want to win elections.
Lets stop!

(46,804 posts)is rather enjoyable now that he has no real power anymore. Watching him in pathetic "has-been" mode is very satisfying.

(46,016 posts)I don't want him or his spawn in my face all the time, but an ineffectual lament from time to time is entertaining.
PatSeg
(46,804 posts)is very gratifying and a much appreciated reminder that he really is gone and powerless. Plus it is a remarkable contrast to our current President, lest anyone might start to take competence and sanity for granted.
Watching the bloated old mad king trying to recreate his glory days with ridiculous decrees that fall flat is a pleasure that we all have earned the past four years. The story is not complete without periodic evidence of his absolute decline and disgrace.
