So when do we march on Washington and demand he resigns?

What will it take? I mean seriously - what has to happen?

No soap boxes today folks!

Mueller has effectively shut down the Rs who came in ready for a fight. Jordan sounded stupid yelling into an echo chamber without one hint of an emotional reaction from Mueller. I see what he's doing.

By referring to the report repeatedly and not giving more than a sentence answer, Dems are confirming what's there and headlines write themselves.

If Mueller does nothing else but read from his report, it will be enough.

Most Americans have not read it, have not been exposed to it. Having Mueller VERBALLY speak to his findings may be devastating for the racist rapist.

Why else would he and his lackey Barr be so afraid Mueller's testimony?

Can't wait for tomorrow!

By the time we get to Impeachment

Our House Dems will have a list of reasons why a mile long, with evidence to back it all up.

That kind of work - an airtight, solid case built on a variety of infractions - takes time.

They're in case-building mode now.

The impeachment process has to be done strategically or it may not have the outcome we want.

Why is CNN giving racist Republican white women from Dallas a platform?

6 of them, his supporters, defending him and sounding just like him.

This is the kind of crap that has to stop.

Do not give these people air time.

Media is such a tool.

How to deal with a spoiled brat. Ignore their crap and say no.

You know - he would be in the worst emotional agony of his life if Americans, other than those who faithfully follow him because they won't, stopped paying attention to him.

Spoiled brats demand attention - even negative attention. It's what makes them feel powerful. They are master provocateurs.

Think about a 7 year old who manipulates one parent against the other and all they do is fight. The brat is either doing it to get their way, and/or for the entertainment value because they're bored. They are in control though, always.

That's what he does to Americans as a collective, tv and social media are his tools.

He's used those tools (with Russia's help) to divide us into warring factions, says/tweets something outrageous and insulting to whip us into a frenzy, then does whatever the hell he wants. The fight is like heroin to him and his cult.

We, those who sees him for who he is, must stop the madness. They cycle we're in will never end otherwise - the cycle of media reporting an atrocity of his, then he tweets something that starts a cacophony of back-and-forth-fighting between his cult and the rest of us. A cacophony that drowns out what matters.

Don't think that by fighting him and his cult head-on we can win. It doesn't work that way.

Fights just give the spoiled brats power and a chance to get away with everything.

We must take his power away.

IGNORE HIM.

Then tell him NO.

VOTE him gone.

Acosta allowed a sexual predator to continue harming children.

By giving Epstein a sweetheart plea deal for NOTHING in return, he is directly responsible for the horrors Epstein continued to inflict on new victims since being set free.

Acosta must not only be removed from office, he must also be held accountable. We must demand it.

Public Corruption Division in NY is prosecuting Epstein's case. Why?

Epstein is a private citizen. It tells me that there's a lot more to come, with possibly high up public officials implicated. Especially if Epstein talks.

President Barack Obama is the second most followed person on Twitter.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it Trump.

All the bots in Russia can't help you.

Gaslighters/Narcissists Can't Handle Rejection

This Forbes article by a mental health profession explains why Trump acts the way he does when people reject him.

U.S. Women’s National team co-captain Megan Rapinoe, when asked if she would accept Trump’s invitation to the White House if the team won the World Cup, said, “I’m not going to the f—— White House.” An appropriate response from a mature world leader would be for him to not respond. After all, the First Amendment protects the right of free speech, and as a world leader, it is understood the position comes with a great deal of public scrutiny. However, a gaslighter/narcissist cannot tolerate someone who rejects them and whom they feel is disloyal – even if the rejection is merited....

While one can argue that a later tweet by Trump said the team would be invited to the White House “win or lose,” it doesn’t erase the attacks on those he views as opponents. Gaslighters/narcissists will never tell you that they feel hurt by something you said. Instead, they will call you unpatriotic, ungrateful, selfish, et cetera. They go for character assassination. When gaslighters/narcissists are criticized, or if they perceive they have been rejected, it causes a “narcissistic injury.” This causes the gaslighter/narcissist to respond with “narcissistic rage.” This rage may not look like typical anger. In fact, many gaslighters/narcissists display narcissistic rage by being quietly demeaning and threatening, with smiles on their faces. This is especially the case if they are attacking someone in public. Public image is everything to gaslighters/narcissists, and the last thing they want is to look bad in front of others....
