"Professional infant Donald Trump discovers adulthood, crime, and punishment all in one fell swoop"

(From Apeksha Bagchi of 'We Got This Covered'):

"Once you are done whining, allow us to welcome you to understanding what it means to be an adult, Dear Trump — taking decisions, realizing that burying your head in the sand doesn’t work, and learning that there is no running from reaping the results."

SNL has been running for almost 50 years and many of us remember its first airing...

Do you think it's time for the show to 'bow out gracefully'... after the 50th season...or should it change in any way.. or should it keep on running in any way it can?

State of the Union: Biden gets advice on speech from Hollywood's 'presidents'...

The president has been on Zoom with a number of actors who have played American presidents in movies including Morgan Freeman (Deep Impact), Geena Davis (Commander in Chief) and Michael Douglas (The American President), Bill Pullman (Independence Day) to get their advice on how best to deliver his speech tonight.

Some very inspiring, humorous and clever suggestions from some great actors to our very good humored and inspiring president.

A one-to-one with Biden...

"Biden said. 'If you thought you were best positioned to beat someone who, if they won, would change the nature of America, what would you do?'"
and, "Folks, trust our voters,” he said. “They will show up again.”

DjT (and any candidate) has now effectively been given permission by USSC ...

to continue the disruptive, anti-democratic routine of running for president and upon losing another election, inciting and supporting insurrections to overturn losses, and repeating this chaotic cycle ad nauseum.

In response to the 'protest vote' ('uncommitted') in Michigan and elsewhere

Biden must keep stressing how DjT had demanded a Muslim ban while he resided in the White House... and that he would push for this even more forcefully if he'd ever return. Add to that horror DjT's slurs and threats against immigrants, people of color, LGBTQ people and non-Christians.

The Trump rally in Greensboro came to an abrupt halt because of a medical emergency in the crowd...

"Someone needed CPR at the Trump rally and was taken out with his kids.
Trump just forges ahead with the rally anyway but says, "it doesn't sound as important now"
-Aaron Rupar on X.

(echoes of 'They'll get over it' in response to a mass shooting).

Re: Djt's likely loss of his N.Y. properties...

Why don't we remove the gold "T" from his building sign, and just leave "RUMP" there, on the skeletal remains of his Fifth Avenue tower?

DjT praised Capitol rioters for their "tremendous spirit"...

”During what has been described as an “incoherent” speech in Tennessee, the former US President appeared on stage in Nashville more than 90 minutes late on Thursday (22 February) to address the National Religious Broadcasters Association. The Republican presidential front-runner declared that he had made “Israel” the capital of Israel during his presidency, that he planned to close down the Department of Education and praised the Capitol rioters for their “tremendous spirit”.

(From 'The Independent', 2/23/2024)

How spirited will DjT be when, hopefully, he joins his fans in prison for several years or more?!
