Last night TSF stood on a stage and called

The United States of America, “The garbage can of the world”.

Because apparently that’s what it says on the Statue of Liberty. Look in the mirror Rethugs… garbage is what is smiling back at you. This party has gone from “ The shining city on the hill” to “the garbage can of the world”

Just this pronouncement should be a deal breaker for anyone who loves this country, but no… for some of our fellow citizens this is a FEATURE and NOT A BUG.
Shit talking America …. OMG.

We cannot let this man back into power. We just can NOT. He can’t be gone soon enough.

VOTE, my friends. I know you will. I know my DU friends all feel the same way.

Unless you're Native American, you're an immigrant.

Hmmm... like father, like son, I guess. Wonder if the father tried to plead "bone spurs," too...?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inaccessible_Island

Inaccessible Island is a volcanic island located in the South Atlantic Ocean, 31 km (19 mi) south-west of Tristan da Cunha. Its highest point, Swale's Fell, reaches 581 m (1,906 ft), and the island is 12.65 km2 (4.88 sq mi) in area. The volcano was last active approximately one million years ago and is now extinct.[2]

Inaccessible Island is part of the archipelago of Tristan da Cunha, which is part of the overseas territory of the United Kingdom known as Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha. Tristan da Cunha itself is accessible only by sea via a seven-day voyage from Cape Town, South Africa, and the harbour on Inaccessible Island allows access for only a few days of the year.[3] Access to Inaccessible Island must be granted by the local government office.[4]


The best part of it all?

There's no Wi-Fi on Inaccessible Island.

Curiously at several of TFG rallies he has flies buzzing about him.
One can surmise why,for several reasons.
To satisfy his need for deification,perhaps he should be renamed Lord of the Flies.

(Btw,in the Bible,the Lord of the Flies is Beelzebub,aka Satan.)

Semantics aside, Trump is an absolutely despicable human being and is a curse on the nation. I knew that from instant he disparaged Mexican migrants as rapists and criminals eight+ years ago, ".. and some I suppose are good people." Unmitigated asshole!

That's what we represent today. Sanctuary.

The man ran his life-long grift here and tried to impress the world with his wealth. He's taken every opportunity to spit on, accuse all matter of deficits and hate on those he considers 'less than.' He's cheated and lied and spread chaos where ever he's gone. He's rubbed shoulders with every dictator on the globe and bent the knee to his favorite--Putin. He disparages the United States every turn he gets, incited a insurrection against his own country, and then stole security documents as he left office. He buried his first wife on a frigging golf course!

The list of crimes and offenses goes on and on and on.

If the United States is the garbage can of the world, Donald Trump is the garbage, rotting, decomposing before our eyes.

On November 5th, we're going to take that garbage out, set the filth on the curb and throw the bastard out.

And for those who have followed and supported this scumbag? You will die with your shame and dishonor.

We're coming. We're the cleanup crew and we're coming to take the garbage out!

and it seemed brilliant to him, so impressed he is with his random utterings. I've read about Hitler being like that: looking inside and reflecting on an issue, and believing the idea that came up was genius and letting it determine his whole foreign policy. Sorry I can't recall my source or be more specific, I just remember thinking that it was the same kind of narcissistic thinking I see in Trump. The actual ideas are terrible but they have an inflated view of them, and act on them because they aren't in touch with reality.
