For the love of God.. what do people see in such a whiny baby

I have never seen such a loser as Donald Trump and his inbred family.. They and especially him, whine constantly.. its enough to drive the parent in me around the bend.. you just want to tell him to go out and play..

The only thing that drives me crazier.. is the Democrats . who want to replace Biden.. Get a grip already.. No one is replacing Biden. Has he slowed down??.. Yes.. He is 80 years old.. but he is still doing the job..

Our worrying about a 77 year old who would be older than Biden when he took office, is crazy in itself..

We need to get out and talk to people.. This whiny ass attitude the current iteration of the Republican Party has taken on, is a pain.. I know.. but we handle it by working

Granted it is always hard to get people ginned up when you do not need to primary or caucus.. but seriously.. trying to replace Biden at this juncture.. we will have the whiners in our ears for four years if we did something that stupid..

whatever they want in order to keep their vote. He proved that by appointing three extremist religious judges to the Supreme Court.

Like most very wealthy people, he doesn’t care what happens to the US because his wealth insulates him from any of the negatives from theocratic rule or even white supremacy.

Louslobbs. My very first thought at the title. All lemmings. They see their ignorance and hate in him and they feel accepted and think it can be mandated on the libs.
Churches (the non Jesus ones particularly) are full of lost people seeking acceptance. But these are being encouraged, and willing, to go kill those that will not accepted their shit.
Maybe he needs to actually tan his balls like Tuckums, not just spray paint em orange to get masculine like Hawley Haulin ass.

Racism. He has given "them" the right to use the word n****r proudly. According to an
expert who was a professor of poly sci told me that Trump has a rock solid 25% of the
American people as his base and it goes to racism and that racism also covers being anti
intellectual, sexist, anti science, anti LGBT, in many cases using their Jay Bees Us God as
a crutch, and scared shitless of change too.

sure as hell never did anything else for them. He exposed the fetid underbelly that has always just simmered under the surface in this country. President Obama's election shocked and scared the shit out of them and I think that Benedict Donald's rise was a direct reaction to that. They see their "white specialness/privilege" being threatened and they can't have that. It's nauseating and scary which is why we can never get complacent.

This is what the GOP is all about. It started with Reagan, and the compassionate conservative ideal. That was just gently warmed up Jim Crow.

Next came the "Thousand Points Of Light" which was just another creative retelling of "screw the little people" told by a southern gentleman. The next generation of Bush spoke of the same ideals, warmed over Jim Crow.

Ah, but then DFT came down the escalator and spoke openly. He'd spent his life denying fair housing to minorities and blatently cheating on his taxes. He legitimized the n-word and all those hidden Jim Crow worshipping Rednecks came out of the woodwork.

This is what the GOP has been for 50+ years. It's nothing new, it's just out in the open.

And he enables his followers to be as obnoxious of an asshole as possible. It's like the worst, most obnoxious sports fans you know, but with the added bonus of throwing toxic politics into the mix. That's my thought anyways.

He's a lawless New York Confederate obsessed with supremacy and domination. The neo-Confederates raised on supremacy, domination, and hatred of the gubment know they're unlikely to ever get someone more Confederate than him in the White House helping them return to the 1850s.

The day after his latest indictment where did he go first for a rally? Alabama.

And who introduced him there? Tuberville the national defense hostate taker.

Where's his base anchored? Guess.
