Isn't this right about the time the Felon runs away, leaving a mess for others to clean up?

Contrary to his claims, he is not a fixer. He's not mature enough to admit his mistakes, therefore, there is nothing to fix. He will runaway, maybe not for good but maybe a tour of his golf courses, maybe campaigning if anybody will have him. He needs to scurry off to lick his wounds. He most assuredly has been wounded. I'm looking forward to more photos of his head hanging down as he walks alone.

He’ll take out his frustrations elsewhere. Like Cuba. If he had a dog, he’d kick it.

While some in his administration are probably salivating at a long drawn out conflict, t is so over it. To him it's a t.v. episode. It should have been over and done by day two or three. He is probably wondering why nobody is following his script, especially the Iranians. Never mind he's the only who has a script. This t.v. episode is done, that's a wrap, folks.

As long as he is making money, and he has a group of adoring MAGAs, he will be fine.

I understand your frustration. November and January are two battles in this war. I've respected posts of yours that I've read. You bring the anger and energy that is needed. I hope you're well.
To quote a good man that recently passed,

"KEEP HOPE ALIVE"
Rev. Jesse Jackson. Rest in peace.

I assure you it has nothing to do with my personal feelings.

I am not frustrated, I have accepted that the US has gone to the dark side.
The battle between good and evil is the iconic human condition.

This man is a ruthless, brutal narcissistic psychopath.
And he has a following and power.
Many US intuitions bow down to him

Mental health professionals have warned the public about him for years.
It is a clinical diagnosis with a certain, guaranteed behavior pattern.

The mental health community understands that people want to deny reality,
do happy talk and pretend Trump and the MAGAs are harmless.

It is 50/50 whether we will have free elections this year.
This is based on data, facts, reality.

Reality is sometimes a steep learning curve.
People have to learn things the hard way.

And as such, I would assume with all that you have stated that you're also aware that in spite of all of the bravado he likes to display he is probably one of the weakest emotional and mental examples of any man that most have ever seen. Every nerve, every emotional button to push is on display, everyday. So easily manipulated. He's Vlad's wet dream. His ego is as fragile as a cheap crystal glass.

So, yes. I get my grins where I can get them. I don't believe in punching down but you show me a bully and I'll expose him for the coward that he is. This buffoon is as big a bully as there ever was and I take great pleasure in every single discomfort and humiliation that comes his way. Because of my background, I've learned to never ever give up hope and it has served me well.
Defeat is temporary and Despair is not welcome. Anger can lead to action, can energize a movement.

November, with the right results can present a January that can stop the bleeding and cause discomfort to a Felon that has been almost untouchable. He will finally be made aware of the 3rd branch of government and the equal power that was bestowed upon it by the Constitution and the voters.

Will never admit they made a mistake. Remember W’s awkward silence when asked if he’d made any mistakes near the end of his term?

I’m not trying to diminish the absolute cluster f-ck this orange makeup wearing bastard just made, has made, and will continue to make, but he’s not doing anything different that others of his kind have done before him.

Many Dem reps have taken AIPAC money yet condemned trump for attacking Iran. Look up their statements if you don’t believe me.

Senator Kaine recently admitted he made a mistake when voting for Noem's confirmation. Many Republican politician's have seen the error of their ways and either gone against the Felon, quit the party or gone so far as to switch parties. President Biden admitted he was wrong for not supporting Clarence Thomas's accuser, Anita Hill during the confirmation hearings. John Kerry expressed regret and apologized for his role in the Vietnam War. Gavin Newsome apologized for not following Covid protocol and attending a crowded dinner party. I once heard Bill Clinton say one of his biggest regrets was not stopping the genocide in Rwanda.

True, you did say most politicians. I guess I would say most Republicans and some Democrats.

When they are big enough to admit a mistake. We all make them.

asked me how I could vote for Kerry who apologized.
I also told him I couldn't believe he had a photo of Bush in the office after he lied us into a war.
Never saw him again, the chiropractor.

Do they learn from the mistake or just keep making them? Will said Democrats vote for the next piece of trash Trump puts up? All signs point to yes.

Because his criminal buddy Bibi egged him on. This could turn out to be the worst US foreign policy mistake made since Vietnam. We are rapidly becoming the pariah of the world. Waiting for a new congress next January to stop him isn't going to work. Putin is loving every second of it.

I think "waiting for a new Congress" is not exactly what everybody is doing. Lawyers and Courts are doing their jobs. Tariffs have been ruled illegal, some compromising Epstein files have been released, some Ice detainees have been released, some politicians are speaking out loudly, righteously and at risk of arrest in some cases. And finally, the American voters are prominently protesting in large numbers at the risk of arrest.
Is everything perfect? No. Are we doing what we can within the law? I say, probably.
The very most that we can do is yes, wait. Wait for November to make the biggest protest against this illegal government in the most Constitutionally permitted way we can, VOTE!!!
If you have a better solution, please, I'm all ears.
