By repeatedly violating his oath of office, Trump has relinquished the presidency. His presidency is illegitimate.

Robert Reich dead on again. I of course have never used the word president in front of the piece of shit’s name, I don’t even use his name he’s just a piece of shit.

On his first round and now. I've never believed the man was anything but an installed corrupter.

His purpose?

To bring the United States of America to her knees. We're watching The Plan play out.

The finale is up for grabs, a fight to the bitter end.

Never forget. Never forgive.

Yes, much of what they say are lies, but often they also signal what they are going to do. And keep that curtain pulled back and the spotlight on the folks behind the scenes; they are the ones really running the show.

They are just as much an enemy of us and the United States of America as a uniform Nazi soldier 1942.

They are just as much an enemy of United States as if they were flying

Mitsubishi A6M Zero Planes into our cities as in December 7, 1941.
