Everything about Trump aka Lex Luther is fake. His promises, his persona, his hair, the color of his face. How do people continue to fall for it?

I love the “Lex Luther” reference, Patty. But, I do believe Lex had more ‘brains’, ‘common sense’ than Frumpy the methane factory has ever thought of having.

A better comparison is the Antichrist. Trump fits the description eerily to a T.

Thanks, Anthony. It was “inspired” by a response I received from my previous writing, and a lot if thus is the response I gave to him. I never heard back from him. I couldn’t tell you what his feelings were, and honestly, I don’t give a damn what he’s feeling!

You know what they say. “If you can’t stand the heat, get the hell out of the kitchen!”

I guess that’s why I always ran into the fire in my career!

Wasn’t it Harry Truman who said that! Don’t know about you, but Harry is one of my favorites! He was like the boy who said he quit school because he didn’t play and the school had recess! 😁

Truman was one of my favorites, too. But I’m not positive which one said thus. I just remember it because my dad always said it.

I mean, I agree with everything you say. I’m just worried about your blood pressure. Please take a walk down a forest path and breathe in the lovely fresh air. MAGA isn’t reading your post, unfortunately. They only read and watch and listen to what Dear Leader tells them to. Maybe get some of your friends registered to vote. Maybe have a good conversation with someone who’s on the fence over dinner. Sending hugs, you sound like you need one. Be well <3

Susanna, don’t worry about my blood pressure. I have nurse’s come where I live and they check it three times a week. Change bandages, wraps, take all my vitals, and make sure I’m eating and don’t need anything.

I’m constantly telling them what I need they can’t give to me. We get a big chuckle out of that.

Hugs to you, my dearest lady! I’m doing everything I can to get all out there so everyone can share this stuff with whomever in all the other social media sites.

I tried to sign up on ‘truth social’ but was refused an account. I was informed I was not a good client for their platform.

“Imagine that!!!”

I am glad to hear it. Especially the part about being rejected for being a good person. :)

That's the huge question, what are they thinking? Based on the very few Trump supporters I know, the answer is that they do recognize Trump as a vile human being. BUT, they hate Biden and liberals more. And it's us liberals smug superiority and desire to enforce our ideas on them that pisses them off no end and makes them want to see Trump stick it to us all. But they wish they had a better choice, as many of us do as well. We might share a common interest in trying to fix the duopoly that leaves us with such poor choices.

Dennis, I couldn’t agree with you more. I look at it this way. Right now, the stick market is breaking records almost daily. This has MEVER happened under any president. We are getting out roads, bridges, better internet to rural areas, which is the infrastructure of this country. That’s thanks to Biden and Harris pushing their infrastructure plan and getting it through Congress.

On the foreign front, we are back with NATO and the other alliances which we were removed from under the previous administration. We have the-established our ties with our allies, which had been broken under the previous administration. And, Biden and Harris have also re-established the trade agreements that we had with the other countries which had been broken under the previous administration.

What hadn’t been fixed, yet, is the tariffs that were placed on the imported goods. They were set up until 2025. Biden has strengthened the tariff on the China goods for Electric Vehicles because he’s trying to get those goods supplied by American companies instead of Chinese. Plus, the Chinese have a very bad habit. This is how they sneak in computer software to damage our computer systems. This puts a stop to that, hopefully.

As for not liking either candidate. Yes, Biden has his ‘flaws’. He’s old. So what? He’s of sound mind, which we damn sure can’t say about Trump. He’s still physically fit, for his age. I’m 72, and I’ll admit, I’m not near as physically fit as Biden is. He has 10 years on me!!! Trump is nowhere near as fit in mind, or body, as Biden. He can’t even sit in that courtroom and stay awake. He can’t speak a full sensible sentence without mumbling his words incoherently.

I look at it like this. When I cast my ballot, I’m voting for Kamala Harris. I truly want her to be the next president of the United States. She’s earned it, she deserves it. She started at the bottom in California and worked her way to where she is now. And, she’s had 4 good years of training under one of the best teachers that there us. She’s been involved in everything that Biden has done while in office, and right now she hearing kite projects than any other Vice President has ever done. She hadn’t been a ‘fixture’. She’s been a big part of this administration. She’s ready for the next step.

Thanks for detailed reply. My problem is that I agree with you 100%. Yet for some reason that befuddles us, close to 50% of the country doesn't see it that way and I don't suspect many in that 50% read yours or my posts. That's what I try to understand.

Expand full comment

I’m right there with you. All I do is try to explain to them the facts. If they can’t see the facts written in black and white, then we can’t help them. They have been sucked into the cult of Frumpy , and there’s not a lot we can do about that, other than suggest they get some serious psychological help.

Daniel, You are a gem. Retired police officer and firefighter….Oh how I wish we had more like you in the police forces today. (I live in Chicago). The police union president is a MAGA and doesn’t belong here! We’re working on getting a number of white supremacists (identified) off the force…it’s a battle.

SeekingReason, I feel for you. I truly do. When I was on the department(s) this type officer was just starting. Being in the south, we had ‘special’ ways of dealing with that type of individual.

All I’ll say is that I, along with the rest of us on the forge, were set in our ways, and were jut changing. All this MAGA , white supremacy, racial, crap wasn’t accepted by any of us. We had our code, and we lived by it. Plus, the people in the community didn’t have any issue with how we handled a damn thing.

I didn’t care what color, nationality, sex, anything. You needed to go to jail, that’s where you went. If you didn’t move when told, we ‘assisted’ you in moving. And, we didn’t care if how we assisted was liked by the perp or not. It was there choice. They made it.

You folks in Chicago gave a real problem, but it’s not one that can’t be fixed. It’s just going to take a little effort on the part of the people to fix it, and them getting the right people in the right positions. Everything is repairable, no matter what.

A big dose of inspiration and passion is key to changing this nations course. The GOP is a Gathering Of Putiners and the Mobligarchs and their corruption laden crime syndicate. The portion of people demanding a restoration of faith in our government is growing steadily. The segment of misinformed and uninformed anti-democracy types are more isolated all the time. Eradicate the GOP from our government!

Amen! VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙💙in ‘24, ‘26, ‘28, ‘30, all in between and beyond!!! This version of the GQPGOP has got to go!

Outstanding post. We are plagued with an overgrowth of lunatics, imbeciles that insist on climbing the Dunning Krueger mountain. Too many have neutered sensibilities making them suckers, vulnerable to the Merchants of Malarkey which produces a byproduct of clueless, rudderless and hapless schmucks. Couple that with a large number of people aka puppets in power and responsibility with a well moneyed hand up their backsides resulting in the lips moving in bizarre ways. MAGA is morally, intellectually and ethically bankrupt, Disciples of Depravity are servile to the Mobligarchs that want to own our asses.

It’s my hope people are ‘inspired’ to get their lazy selves to the polls and VOTE BLUE up and down the ballot fur ALL positions. We have GOT to totally eliminate this current GQPGOP. It’s nothing like the Republican Party which was around when my parents were part of it. They left it in the 80s, and swore to never return to it.

Daniel, the former republican party, should resume under a different name unless they can remove the traitor members of Congress who were allowed to be seated. The threats, the guns pointed at all time, the support of Fascism makes them unredeemable in my mind.

Ohhh, SeekingReason, they have already been ‘indoctrinated’ with a new name. I came up with a name for them. I think it fits them very nicely.

“Trumpublican MAGA Fascist Party”

Remember: Trump was never a Republican until he voted for himself. He has destroyed what was decent in America. Everyday we hear that more good Republicans are throwing in the towel and walking away from the nightmare of Trumpism.

On your list was something I wasn't aware of: the assassination of Al Zawahri. I wonder how I missed it

Jaime, don’t fret. I’m sure there’s things both of us missed. There’s actually not a day that goes by that he doesn’t accomplish something that is designed to help the people of this nation.

Look at all the student debt that has been forgiven/done away with. He did that after the House of Representatives told him they’d never approve a bill to forgive any student debt. There’s been many things he’s done without Congress, and he just keeps on keeping on.

And people look at him with all these lame excuses not to vote for the man.

I recommend making copies of this and keeping it handy to pass around. It’s the truth in a nutshell, everything one needs to know to make the best decision in the November election. Vote Democratic or lose what’s left of what you value.

Fear not, my good friend. I have a copy of this where I wrote it. I keep them all.

Feel free to share this wherever you desire. The more that see it, read it, hopefully we’ll flip a few of those cultist back to reality!

OmG. All that rhetoric of lies and distortions. Less is more when u tell the truth. Rambling explanations to a support falsities is pretty obvious.

Expand full comment

I can’t tell who you are talking about with the “falsities” claim. I assure you, nothing I have written is “false”. It’s all been scrutinized, investigated, and fairly well known to everyone. The problem is the ‘faction’ of MAGA cultists which can’t seem to understand they have been sacked in by a con man, experienced narcissistic sociopathic liar.

How can u honestly espouse the word liar and not include the serial fabricator of all time. Biden. Amazing how you just ignore it.

Expand full comment

It’s easy. Biden hasn’t been caught in a lie. Biden doesn’t lie every time his lips move. Biden hasn’t lied to us to gain any ‘points’ or build his ‘cult’ which apparently you are a glorious member of.

Keep drinking the ‘Trumpublican kool-aid’. Someday you will realize you’ve been used, and scammed by this con artist. This clown that should have been spending his entire life in prison instead of scamming people. This wannabe dictator who is the biggest spy for Putin this country has seen.
