He's now squirming like a cornered rat

[malaise]

He knows the Jan 6 committee has the goods on him and his cronies,
This will be fun.
Lock up the Slobfather.
That is all

[Lovie777]

1. More dangerous than a cornered rat . .....

more like a cornered cat.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

18. Pick another animal

Like a leech

Because cats cornered or not are precious pure love and sweet and perfect to be compared to tfg.

Tfg is more like a lamprey or a leech,a tube worm, a bot fly,a flea...

[ChazInAz]

20. Botfly...I like that.

[Traildogbob]

25. Me too.

He causes rotting boils on everything he touches. No offense Bot Flies. Y’all have an ecological function.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

66. An orange

Bloated shit for brains botfly trying to lay its offspring in your ear so its sickening larva can burrow into your brain.
Until your critical thinking stops.

[3catwoman3]

29. The only thing I can compare him to without feeling as if I am...

…egregiously insulting that organism is a tapeworm - they are hideously ugly and suck the life out of whatever they attach to.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

60. Agree

A diseased tapeworm sucking the life out of its host nation. His disgusting children are the egg sacs.

[malaise]

64. Excellent choice

Happy Holidays

[soldierant]

72. I don't think a tapeworm has

enough intelligence to realize it is cornered ... and frankly, 'm not sure what cornering a tapeworm would look like.

Trump** seems to be able to know he is cornered, although it takes him a while. So I think we need to take license to use another animal, one whoch is dangerous when cornered and can realize when it is cornerd.

A Fer de Lance?

[onecaliberal]

47. Bloated tic

[The Roux Comes First]

57. Dung Beetle Works for Me

[I_UndergroundPanther]

67. Tfg is unworthy of being a scarab.

Scarabs roll the sun to keep the barque of Ra going. A scarab is one of the most important amulets to get to the afterlife. Egyptians put the scarab on the heart.
The heart was the seat of the soul.

Soo tapeworm sounds good but I prefer the botfly to represent tfg.

[BobTheSubgenius]

61. TFG.

This F'ing Guy.

[dhol82]

68. TFG The Fucking Grifter

[BobTheSubgenius]

71. That too.

[dlk]

34. A weasel...

[I_UndergroundPanther]

65. Weasels are cute. The Ferret

aka Captian Showercap
May have an issue if he sees this thread.

Better to go with a tapeworm or a bot fly.

[dlk]

81. No offense intended - weasels and ferrets are different

Who do you know has a weasel for a house pet?

[I_UndergroundPanther]

84. Didnt know that

Ferrets are so cute.

I get a kick out of how weasels and ferrets run across the room with thier backs hunched and little feet going as fast as they can go.

[czarjak]

73. Declawed cats are easier to grab?

[WarGamer]

2. Your optimism is a virtue.

But a Congressional Committee packs no teeth and even IF some charges were cobbled together there's a thing called a Trial and he has every right to insist on 6 Trumpists on that Jury.

He will NEVER be convicted of jack or shit.

Sorry for the wet blanket

[Septua]

32. And all he needs is one...

..for a hung jury.

[Kingofalldems]

38. Says you.

Totally disagree.

[WarGamer]

52. Merry Christmas to you too, koad...

Hope the New Year brings you happiness and optimism.

[OverBurn]

53. I'm with ya, I'll believe it if it ever happens, doubt anything ever happens to the orange idiot.

[Permanut]

3. Or a rabid badger.

[pecosbob]

4. As I've posted several times here at DU

I want to see him living in a disused refrigerator box on a sidewalk in the Bronx, muttering to passing strangers about 'huge crowds.'

[Danmel]

5. Why do that to the good people of the Bronx?

Stick him somewhere in a red state after they've turned on him.

[ShazzieB]

8. I vote for either Texas or Florida.

Or maybe he could divide his time between the two. Let Abbott and DeSantis share him!

[leftieNanner]

12. South Dakota

He can stand next to Mt. Rushmore and pose.

Kristy would love that, I'm sure.

[Fritz Walter]

16. We're already stuck with Mar a Lardo here...

So, Texans, you’re up! Maybe you can give him and his horde a couple lookout posts on Abbott’s flimsy-ass wall.

[dhol82]

77. I thought it was Merde a Lardo

[Sucha NastyWoman]

22. In Texas there's a place called Dead Man's Hole.

Last edited Thu Dec 23, 2021, 05:08 PM - Edit history (2)

That’s where where the local Confederates used to put the bodies of the Union Sympathizers.

https://texashillcountry.com/origin-dead-mans-hole-origin/

That would be an appropriate place for that disgusting piece of trash.

That is to say, it’s a good place for him once he kills himself with fast food , Covid, or a rage induced stroke/heart attack

Absolutely NOT condoning any kind of violence against him.

[pecosbob]

46. I'm from Texas and didn't know that...thanks.

[argyl]

87. I'm a Texan and had never heard of this place, either.

There was a lot of conflict in Texas, particularly the Hill Country over slavery. There were many German, Polish, and Italians who immigrated to Texas, particularly Germans.
They were vehemently opposed to slavery so that put them at odds with Anglo Americans from places like Alabama and Tennessee who brought their slaves with them, even though slavery had been abolished in Mexico.
The #1 and maybe only freedom the Texians gave a damn about was the freedom to keep their slaves. So the Texas Revolution against Mexico was a microcosm of what happened 25 years later with the Civil War.
And there was plenty of violence between the anti slavery and slavery contingents. The anti slavery colonists actually outnumbered the pro slavers in some parts of Texas.

Texas was a dangerous to live in in the mid 19th century. Setting aside the violence between white Texans there was always the threat of raids from the Comanche and their allies, the Kiowa. Texas, as well as parts of New Mexico and Colorado, was often referred to as Comancheria, and for good reason.
Their raids often took them into Mexico. The Comanches were the best horsemen as well as the most merciless of the Plains Indians. The Sioux and Cheyenne didn't intrude into Comancheria.

I lived in two very small towns just North of San Antonio in my early to mid/late teens. My best friends had last names like Ott and Schraub. I'd go to parties and the sausage was great and someone almost always pulled out an accordion to play. This was in the early/late '60's.
A lot of the older people still spoke German to each other.

I loved living there. The people were warm and friendly and the scenery was beautiful. And many of my good friends were Mexican Americans as well. They referred to themselves as Mexicans and we were Anglo. The most beautiful girl I ever saw had a German father and Mexican mother. She got most of her beauty from her Mom. She was also kind hearted and a brilliant student.

Guess I kinda rambled on all over the place. But I loved the time I spent in the Hill Country.

[Sucha NastyWoman]

90. Where are you now?

I had to move away from the Hill Country in 2018, to the Houston area. I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get back there since I left - totally hate living in Houston. But now the prices are so high, it may not happen soon.

There were also a lot of Czech immigrants, but I think most of them settled in small towns closer to Houston.

Hispanics culture has had a big hand in shaping Texas, but I’m not sure we can count on them to help turn Texas blue, due to their anti-abortion, often Catholic beliefs. And it seems to me that many Hispanic men equate success with being Republican. And those whose equality the Democratic Party fights for often don’t vote.

[argyl]

92. I've been in Bangkok for almost four years.

Beautiful country, beautiful people with lovely manners. Sometimes I'll locate asshole/white supremacists I used to work with and tell them they're actually " mud people." I'll enclose a shot of a beautiful Northern Chinese girl with skin like ivory or alabaster. And if they are capable of any self awareness they may look at their own less than pure white skin and pause to think. But I doubt it. And I digress.

I spent most of my life in the DFW region, mainly Denton. But plenty of it in Dallas, Old East Dallas mainly.

And there were a number of years I spent in Austin. From 1969 to the mid/late '70's. With an interruption or two in parts elsewhere, Flagstaff, Southwestern Colorado,California,etc. I was what you'd call a genuine hippie. I'd hitch hike around the country barefoot. I didn't need a lot to get by on.
And God, did I love Austin. Back then it was the place to be for me. The "San Francisco of the Southwest." And living there was cheap. You could panhandle on Guadeloupe Street to make rent money.

The Armadillo World Headquarters, Soap Creek Saloon, The One Knite, Broken Spoke, the original hole in the wall Antone's on Sixth close to Interregional, the Continental Club. So many great venues with such great live music. I was there when Waylon and Willie escaped Nashville for Austin. And now Austin's an internationally recognized Mecca for music, and not just Americana, my personal favorite. And there's even a turnoff marked Hippie Hollow where we'd all skinny dip en masse. They've even built a set of landings and stairs to it. Texas's only de facto nude bathing spot.

Back then, the city population was 180,000. It didn't stretch from Georgetown to San Marcos. No Pickle Parkway and no need for it. Now you can expect a traffic jam from Georgetown to Austin if you stay on I 35.

But you're right about Texans of Mexican descent often being quite conservative. I've met a number of them who literally despised the undocumented from Mexico and then Central America as much as any white MAGAt.
They don't vote Democratic in as high a percentage as,say, Puerto Ricans in NYC. But they will pretty consistently vote Dem. 60% of the time. And with consistent get out the vote efforts and the increasing hostility and violence they suffer from The Dotard's followers that percentage should increase.
Of course, I still follow US politics closely, even from here and what I see I don't like. Looks like we're heading to " it doesn't matter who votes, it's who counts the votes" like Stalin's, and now Putin's Russia.

I've voted in every Presidential and off year election since I was old enough to vote. My first vote was for McGovern. I knew he'd lose in a landslide but I was proud of my vote.

And over here I definitely got overseas ballots so I could vote for Beto in 2018 and against The Dotard in 2020. I was in the States in 2016 so I most definitely voted for Hillary.
At the time I was living in Plano, caring for my mother as best as I could. Northwest Plano, affluent part of town. I was in and out in under 15 minutes. And in South Dallas the polling lines stretched around the block and people waited for hours.
I'm coming for a visit this next year, mid June to late July. It's been almost three years so I'll no doubt be shocked by changes. I'll spend the first and last week in Texas. And a good friend of mine with a well maintained Toyota 4x4 and I will spend a month out West.
I've thought of coming back but I wouldn't even consider it until after the 2024 elections and if they turn out badly I'll probably never go back.
May go to Ecuador or Chile after that, if I don't just stay here.
Can't believe I left out the Czechs. But it's the ethnic German people I knew best.

Hell, I wrote a short story. Hope this doesn't bore you. But yeah, I'm Texan, first and foremost. My Mom's grandfather, my great grandfather, left Georgia for Texas one step ahead of the law after breaking a friend of his out of jail. That really establishes a guy's bona fides as a Texan.

Enjoy the rest of your Christmas. I enjoyed reminiscing about Texas and my experiences there.
It's 9:30 AM Sunday morning here in Bangkok. Helluva time difference.
Take care.

21. Phoenix in the Summer.

Anchorage in the Winter.

10. I hope the whole family is bankrupted so badly they have to return to the ancestral whorehouse...

… in the Yukon. That’s been my meme for some years now. We’ll see which of our wishes comes true.

[Traildogbob]

27. I hope Baron

Has to depend on public school meals to eat. Ya know, socialism all their useless asses. They did for 4 plus years sucking on the tax payer teet.

62. He'd leave NY long before it comes to that

For that matter, he'd leave the USA long before it comes to that.

[CanonRay]

6. Color me skeptical

7. Trump is still living it up! As much as I want him in chains

He is still not indicted!

[ShazzieB]

9. Thank you for this, malaise!

It's just what I needed today!

[FreeWheatForever]

11. A cornered rat

...fights to the death. It is sure to get ugly.

[leftieNanner]

13. He is squirming

But there's a part of his fevered little toxic brain that always believes that he will bet away with everything. He always has.

I cannot imagine the self-talk that goes on.

[trusty elf]

14. Whole lotta squirmin' goin' on!

[monkeyman1]

24. And it will get worse !! the great ball bag !!

[OMGWTF]

36. Traitor Tot's ass is 'bout to be kicked by a size nine high heel worn by a strong black woman.

[calimary]

31. That's an insult to rats everywhere!

He’s lower than the Seventh Level of Hell. Satan’s gonna need a new basement.

[Brainfodder]

33. Can we get to the part where the rat is dowsed with lighter fluid and we all got a match?

If a rat is hung upside down in a forest with a ball gag will it make a sound, and who will rake the forest when he's gone?

[Wicked Blue]

35. He knows they've been indicting, he knows they're getting close

He knows that he's been very bad
and now he knows he's toast

He better watch out,
He better not fly
because he'll be nabbed
by the FBI

Slobfather is going to jail

[OMGWTF]

37. Beautiful! Merry Christmas y'all!

[empedocles]

54. Yes

[DemUnleashed]

40. 1/6/22

I am beyond thrilled that he is squirming and scared but I have a feeling that because of that, his 1/6/22 plans that he has going, is going to be a worse bloodbath that 1/6/21!! His fears lead to his anger and his anger leads him to rile up his very willing, manaical base!

[malaise]

42. Fucker is

Impotent

[orangecrush]

56. I'm SKEERED!

Welcome to D.U., btw.

[mrsadm]

Happy Holidays!

[spanone]

45. ....AND THROW AWAY THE KEY!!!!!!

[Doremus]

51. You are far more optimistic than I

Can't picture any squirming, only thumbing his nose.

[BannonsLiver]

82. Optimistic wasn't the word I was thinking about.

[C Moon]

58. "Happy New Year to you...in jail!"

[Stuart G]

59. K and R.. I think that it is just a matter of time, Yes, it will happen and I will enjoy it too.

Just like everyone else here at DU.

He is a AIS

An Invasive Species.

[flying t]

78. I am a new poster here although

I have been coming here for many, many, many years and I am familiar with the rules.

The following is a question and not meant to support or condone what anyone on the right has done. What I am about to say may result in me getting the boot and if that is the case then so be it.

Trump has been accused of everything under the sun and we have watched breathlessly as talking heads on CNN, MSNBC and writers in the NYT, WP, Atlanta Constitution, LA Times etc, etc have gleefully announced variations on the claim, "we got the bastard this time and he will go to jail for sure", and yet in the end when the info is all revealed nothing happens....nothing at all. A truly excellent example if the Russian Collusion thing which after being hyped to death by every talking head in creation turned out to be the biggest nothing in political history.

And now here we go again with the Insurrection thing and Trumps planning it all along. Somebody please explain in easy language WHY this is so different? I am sick to death of being let down and discouraged after being whipped up by claims of absolute proof in this or that scandal.

Anyone?

[Rhiannon12866]

86. I have to agree and it's wearing me out - and I know I'm not alone

We keep getting our hopes up, sat through two conclusive impeachment hearings, and yet he's still out there spouting his lies and inciting his followers. He's had accusations from numerous women, we see others brought down, but not him. Letitia James ran for New York Attorney General and won, one of her campaign promises was to go after TFG for his illegal activities in New York, but that was in 2019. And then there was the January 6th violent insurrection, there is actual film footage of TFG calling for it, asking his supporters to follow him to the Capitol - and there have been hundreds of arrests and convictions of those who did just that, yet he's still out there, still challenging last year's election and threatening to make a speech on January 6th to challenge Speaker Pelosi's commemoration. If not now, when???

Welcome to DU, you're among those who share your frustration here.

[flying t]

91. Thanks, I was

beginning to feel like the Lone Ranger.

[samplegirl]

79. I don't think

justice will ever be served.
We can only hope.

[Evolve Dammit]

83. That is one of my Holiday wishes as well. After Peace on Earth and survival.

[BlackSkimmer]

85. I admire your optimism, as others have said.

But he ain’t ever going to be locked up.

You can take that to the bank. Sadly.

[HipChick]

88. off topic..Happy Holidays Malaise

Hope you have a blessed holiday sis!

[malaise]

89. Same to you sis

And it’s not off topic- the more he squirms, the more I celebrate
