Trump is running scared.

[kentuck]

If we look at his language, from the examples of the last 5 years, we can hear the fear in his ramblings.

When he tries to explain his problems with his taxes, he doesn't deny them. He minimizes them. His political enemies are going after him. Look at all the "murder" and "sex traffickers" in the world and they are worried about a small case of tax fraud. What's wrong with rewarding your employees with a car or an apartment, he asks? Or paying their grandchildren's tuition to the best private schools? Everybody does it.

And why don't they tell us who murdered Ashli Bobbitt? A usual tactic of his, he is attempting to create an emotional, and possibly violent issue, to use later if he needs to threaten or to distract the authorities from his illegal activities. He will repeat it over and over for the next few weeks and months, until his base is ready to act upon it. Just like he did with the January 6th insurrection. He is a very adept practitioner of propaganda.

His primary concern at this time is staying our of jail. Also, he does not wish for anything to be publicly adjudicated. He will continue to blame others and spout his "whataboutisms" as a way to deflect from his criminal activities.

If another indictment falls, there will probably need to be an intervention.

1. "Sure I cheated on my taxes, grab some pussies,got people killed, but hey

[Botany]

2. Look at all the "sex traffickers"

[Glorfindel]

5. Yech...

the most ghastly ménage à quatre in recorded history.

[Botany]

8. We had a President with a history of cocaine use and sex with underage girls and he was "married ...

... to" a Slovenian prostitute who got into the country illegally. And the republicans and Fox News were
all fine with that because nothing tastes sweeter than a liberal's tears besides Hillary was a d**e b****
with a liberal agenda.

BTW the very day Jeffery Epstein talked about that he used Trump's plane to move girls around and that
Trump was still flying on his plane years after he said he wasn't Jeffery "hung himself" that night.

[3Hotdogs]

28. Are you sure he hung himself, or

was his self hung for him?

[Botany]

34. And that happened less then 1 week after Bill Barr had visited the Fed. Lock Up where Epstein ...

... was staying, both video cameras went bad that night, both guards had "fallen asleep*," and that
was the first suicide in that facility in years too.


* I would have "fallen asleep" too. Some kind of mob hit man comes up to and shows you pictures of
your family and house and says something like, "Nice family shame if something would happen to them."

[momta]

6. Fixed it.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

23. That is not true

Child abuse is terribly common.

So if abuse created abusers we'd be overrun with them.

Give survivors some credit for choosing to not identify with the people abusing them.

I was abused got the scars in my brain to prove it.

Yet I abuse nobody.

That which you wrote is a harmful myth called the vampire myth. Educate yourself why that statement you wrote is incorrect

24. Not everyone who was abused

becomes an abuser. Many do not. They heal and go on with their lives, and often become defenders and protectors of abused people, working to change laws.

But, people who are abusers are among the ones who were abused and did not heal from it, but instead, became perpetuaters of it.

To eliminate, or at least reduce, abuse in society, it is important that abusers be stopped legally and that abused people receive help in healing as soon as their abuse is known.

3. The image of t***p running makes me giggle

I think he'd more apt to be fleeing in a golf cart -- a golf cart whose batteries are almost dead...

[MyOwnPeace]

4. THAT would be great TV...........

live coverage of TFG fleeing town in GolfCart-1 being paced by about 20 cop cars ( think "OJ" )........




(Faux Spews, of course, would be showing how TFG is on his way to inspect 'his' wall at the border.....)

[Wounded Bear]

10. That would put OJ's white Bronco to shame...

[KS Toronado]

13. No need to bad mouth Ford Broncos, they can outrun golf carts.

[Blue Owl]

12. It's been awhile since we've had a national "all channels on deck" event...

That would be a perfect one!

[wnylib]

25. Great image.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

11. I can't find it now, but some satirical newspaper...

... in Western Australia photoshopped a picture of Trump fleeing from something that about made me choke on my coffee.

He'd quickly have a heart attack from a sprint, in reality.

[wnylib]

26. The only Australian cartoon of TFG

that I remember is the one where he was rushing to the WH laundry room for bleach after his covid diagnosis. That one nearly knocked me on the floor with laughter.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

32. Lol! That seems funny too!

I was thinking of a photoshopped photograph, with Trump's head attached to the body of an overweight man who seemed to be running through a hallway of the White House.

I'm not sure why it made me laugh so hard. I guess it was the expression on Trump's face in the pic (sort of red while biting his lip) which seemed to work so perfectly.

[wnylib]

35. I don't remember that one,

but it sounds like it could have come from the period beteen the election and Biden's inauguration, when there were many photoshopped images of how TFG would be forced to leave the WH.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

37. That seems about right.

The newspaper might've been "The West Australian"?

I later found other photoshopped pics of Trump from that publication online, but not the one that made me laugh so hard one morning months ago.

[Buns_of_Fire]

15. I don't think rumpy does "running." Waddling, maybe.

I picture Burgess Meredith as the Penguin.

[Wounded Bear]

9. trump's biggest fear is that of being exposed for the phony that he is...

His whole "strength" is in gullible people believing he is strong.

Like his wealth is based on people believing he is wealthy.

[KS Toronado]

19. I don't believe he has a fear of being exposed as a phony

as much as he'd hate it if someone called him a phony. He's told himself and everyone who would listen for
years that he's a very stable genius and smarter & wiser than everybody except Abe Lincoln. He's told
himself these big lies for years & years to where I believe he actually believes he is "The Greatest". Shame
Ali isn't around to teach him a thing or two.

[wnylib]

30. He fears having to face his real self

more than he fears having it exposed to others. Since he lives off of his projected image being reflected back to him by duped admirers, he would wilt under the reality of his real self if exposure to others cost him that reflected, projected self image. That is what drives him, fear of self.

[NJCher]

40. This is it, right here

Eom

[kentuck]

14. Also, we should note that he has broken off his relationship with Rudy.

Did anyone think that would ever happen?

He may have some exposure with the charges against Rudy also?

[FakeNoose]

17. Well maybe Rudy has broken with him?

This is just a guess ... but Chump surely owes Rudy for legal services rendered. Chump could have given him a pardon before he left office, but he didn't.

How many of us treat our friends that way?

[wnylib]

31. How many "friends" does Trump actually have?

[Traildogbob]

16. Gonna Stroke👏👏

Maybe Congressman Dr Ronnie Jackson can give him handfuls of chill pills.

[Traildogbob]

18. Or

New free man Bill Cosby can hook him up with Qualudes. The original “Q”.

[czarjak]

20. Great Christian though? He said so.

[wnylib]

33. The Chosen One.

Chosen by himself, because he knows more than God.

[czarjak]

38. Blasphemy much!

[nvme]

21. It is sad that this potential despot still has sway

I can stand how this rethuglican screams constitution so long as they are not forced to abide by it. I want to vomit every time I see this scumbag hold a rally. I wonder how many Germans that embraced Nazism felt remorse after WWII ended? Will our fellow American's ever feel anything even slightly approaching that feeling? I want to be able to disagree without being hyperbolic or histrionic. I can not see it happening in the near future, but who knows.

[Frustratedlady]

22. If he thought his actions were legal, why did he keep two sets of books?

Sorry, Donnie Boy! Your goose is cooked. You signed the checks.

Oh, and your CFO's wife also had a car to come to work for you and their grandchildren? They also worked for you? Hmmm!

Let's see what your children got...Melania?.....

[johnthewoodworker]

27. Rational people can make big noise, use the meager legal book, and make fun of Trumptard.

No Republican/Nazi is going to be bothered about any action against them. Just watch the Trumptard and followers run to the liars rally.

[KentuckyWoman]

36. With respect and all sincerity - I don't care

His mental state, his excuses, his justifications, his upbringing, his whatthefuckever....

Your post is straight on and I agree, but for me it makes no more difference that all the "this and thats" we get from every other narcissistic skunk bucket who blames everything and everyone else for their crimes. I could care less what made him into what he is. He just needs to be gone and he can take his torch bearing, confederate flag worshipping, racist, disease spreading hateful thugs with him.

If it wasn't for innocent medical staff ending up on the butt end of the stick ... I'd recommend a true test of Trump followers be required to lick a petri dish full of Delta Variant ... and we could just be over it.

[11 Bravo]

39. At best I'll give him "waddling scared".
