tRump is beyond incorrigible.

This clueless, classless oaf has no clue that the First Amendment will be his undoing.

The press is catching on to his corruption and duplicity and the press is fully protected by the 1st Amendment.

He can carp all he wants to about the press, but their voice, and ours is protected. So when the news agencies have finally had enough of his abuse (and he is a consummate abuser) the back-draft of negative news will come like an Avenging Tsunami, the likes of which have not been seen for a long time.

Today's NYT has lit a fuse, and many of us hope it shines a bright light on this pompous, Caligula-like fool.

the buffoon -

Has anyone asked why the buffoon had a presser to begin with today? - Was this to change the subject from any kudos to the current President who spoke so eloquently last night???

This is my favorite take on him, a notoriously vain, narcissistic, thin skinned, petty, vindictive, spendthrift tyrant who was slaughtered by his hand picked Praetorian Guard 3 years and 10 months after he was proclaimed Emperor.



He, too, was overfond of gilt and marble.
