(Boo effing hoo)

1. scary to me him campaigning for the most fascist candidates with his rallies.

[Croney]

2. It's disappointing to hear that he's starting rallies back up in May.

I hope that's just bluster. The respite from those sickening events has been nice. Maybe only Faux News will show clips, and we'll be spared.

3. No taxpayer travel expenses or event rental space.

Arenas are not going to lend their space for Free. Police security? Garbage pickup?

So Orange man wants to hold COVID spreading events again? Gotta get those numbers up.

[Fritz Walter]

11. Not so fast!

FL Goober Ron DeathSentence will gladly bury those costs somewhere in the state budget, as would Jacksonville's Mare Lemon Curry with the city budget.

And I'm sure they're not alone...

[PortTack]

4. I think it is just bluster..he said he was going to start his rallies again the first of April

[Irish_Dem]

6. He probably doesn't want to spend the money and saw the attendance would be low.

So he keeps moving the date out.

5. Poor Velveeta Vulgarian

I cannot possibly care less. I am all out of fucks to give.

He spews he wants to run in 2024? Maybe enough of the idiot old farts that voted for him will be gone and the idiot young punks will be in jail.

9. Kudos on "Velveeta Vulgarian."

[lonely bird]

10. Well, thanks but...

I must give credit to ShowerCapBlog for that one. Probably should have noted it when I posted.

The Ferret would post ShowerCapBlog on DU periodically.

He had a host of others: Gameshow Goering, Hairplug Himmler and so on.

18. Love all those monikers.

[SheilaAnn]

7. Since he hasn't been paying many communities for using their resources, I doubt many

towns will grant them a permit unless the money is up front.

[DENVERPOPS]

8. Not only that

but if he wants to go to any previous location that he stiffed the first time around, they will add that bill onto the new permit fee.

[KG]

12. who gives a fuck.

[groundloop]

13. Not only that, but I also refuse to click on the link and increase his ratings.

The motherfucker thrives on attention and is a master at getting it. We all just need to learn to ignore his tantrums and fantasies of grandeur.

[apnu]

17. Oh its fucking funny. The other dude at the table cracks jokes

Apparently they use the Mar-a-Largo bridal suite so he cracks a few about heart shaped tubs and other things.

[apnu]

14. "Where the magic happens" LOL!

[Wild blueberry]

15. Not dead yet. Sad.

16. Mussolini had the same problem ... Oh wait

19. Not An Easy Transition for Trump - But Not Totally in Ruins Either

Of course, he didn't handle losing the 2020 election well - we all know that. And trying to primary Republican legislators who he felt were disloyal to him? Yeah, it's part and parcel of his malignant narcissist megalomaniac / autocratic streak - Mary Trump could have told you that, and probably predicted it in her next book, which is soon to come out. The really scary thing is that, for all his faults and shortcomings, Trump has excellent political instincts, and rallying and campaigning is something he's really, really good at - and he seems to have really tapped into a big part of the American zeitgeist and inspired fanatical loyalty and support in his base, at least the die hard ones - and so, he's still capable of inflicting considerable damage on the American body politic. The sad truth is that, more than any other American alive today, Donald Trump really needs to be behind bars, where he can do no harm, for the good of the country - yet prosecutors are woefully slow at closing in on him and doing anything in that department.
