"He will not change, and you know it."



"We must look at the history of this presidency and to the character of this president, or lack of character, and ask: Can we be confident that he will not continue to try to cheat in that very election? Can we be confident that Americans, and not foreign powers, will get to decide, and that the president will shun any further foreign interference in our democratic affairs? And the short, plain, sad, incontestable answer is no, you can't. ... He will not change, and you know it."

to military school, and he came out still a spoiled, incorrigible yound adult, who learned dirty, business tricks and also how to keep POCs out of the family buildings from his father.

That's who he's always been. He wants what he wants and thinks what he wants is all there is to it.

The MFer tried to overthrown the government because he lost the 2020 election. That is who he is. If he gets back to the WH, look out, America, he'll be taking revenge against all who tired to make him pay for his crimes.

Trump's downfall is coming very soon. I pray he lives to experience his own public humiliation and punishment.

Thanks to Bill "J Edgar" Barr.

And is mostly unclassified.

"Weaponization" is projection. Everything he says is projection.

And Barr is big time into denial.

Projection and denial are two main markers of cult behavior. Cult membership accounts for what blackmail falls short of explaining. Since cults "legitimize" scumbag behavior, there's hidden guilt associated with membership, and breaking free means admitting that guilt, which people are averse to doing.

To voters who now know the facts, it's persuasive to remember those who stood up and said what Republicans still don't have the moral fiber to say.

I made this up and it describes tRump quite well.
With apologies to the writers of Mary Poppins.

When I was a wee lad my papa said to me.
I will tell you a word that describes Donny T.

I will will now tell you that word.
As it was said to me.
