Not everybody shrugs. Millions of us still know this is not normal as evidenced by Saturday's turnout.
It's sad that it's Congress who shrugs their shoulders and is no longer a check on our psychopathic, convicted felon POTUS 🍊
And when is this going to be too much for invertebrate Republicans? We fought a mad King for our country’s independence, you cowards. Now you are giving our country to a new one?
Tom Nichols is wrong, not everyone "shrugs & says: well, Trump". Mostly nat'l news people say that & unfortunately they depend upon their flawed methodology polling on how they think Americans feel. Polling that is always IVR, text or email replay & never humans talking to other humans anymore.
the wannabe emperor has no clothes,
everyone in his party can see that,
and none of them will tell him for fear of getting primaried out of their seats of power.
when the members of this administration write their "boy, was he crazy!" tell-alls, remind them they could have helped when it counted.
Just wait until Trump tweets out for all of LA residents to evacuate with lots of exclamation points. He is not yet in a war overseas, but he is in an active war with America. And still people continue to shrug.
Republicans were okay with lies and shit Republican behavior for years and years. Trump is merely the culmination of power at all costs for the GOP. If people are shocked by his behavior and 2nd election win, they have lived the last 30 years with their head up their ass.
OMG
Bravo 👏👏👏
I love finding people that understand this didn't just happen during the Trump years. This was an ONGOING Republican ploy to destroy Democracy by not ever telling the truth and creating conspiracy theories for over 30 years. Earns you a follow!!
Yep. The degradation since Nixon, winning and running on racism and misogyny. Southern Strategy. Welfare Queen. Willie Horton. Swift Boating. Mexican Rapists. It's been a party of vile guttersnipes for five decades, with vile lies and propaganda pushed by Rupert & Rush. Despicable.
Trump's LONG CON game:
* Ramp up dementia actions/words.
* Suck up everyone's money in crypto-schemes.
* Avoid prison claiming mental deficiency
* Leave cabinet, department secretaries & Congress holding the bag for multiple criminal charges.
=GET OFF SCOT-FREE
It was Hillary that gave the world Trump!
Her ego and believing that she was due the presidency, literally canceling democracy to get it!!
Sorry, it's just the facts....
No, it isn't facts. The voters gave the world Trump. They had a choice, and they made their choice. They either voted for Clinton, stayed home out of pique or ennui, or voted for Trump. Those last two groups ensured his win. Same thing this time. I won't give them a bye. They own this.
Apparently voting for the person who we watched cheat to appoint herself the nominee made millions stay home! She either knew that would happen & didn't care, or wasn't smart enough to know, witch is as troubling! I remember hearing people say, "We don't need you Bernie supporters, we really don't!"
I am so sick of these morons.
“Hillary was so bad that it’s her fault we reelected Trump 8 years later, knowing full well how self involved, stupid and evil he is.”
Imagine we get what we had from the 40s to Reagan, without discrimination of women & minorities!
Everyone makes living wages, owns a house, takes vacations, has child care, universal healthcare, free public college! Corporate taxes, officials work for us! Like Denmark & Sweden! The Happiest people!
I'm not a moron, I'm an educated American! I want the best for the American people! We don't have to have 80 million people in poverty!
We can get every worker to union wages & benefits! We don't need to have 100,000 veterans living on the streets, a million others on the streets! We can do better!
It's the DNC that was so bad 8 years later they lost 6 million voters that walked away from the party after they funded genocide instead of doing what they were elected to do!
6 million voters walked away from the party, that's on the party, not people who made individual decisions to stay home!!
Voting is an individual right and responsibility. Sometimes the choices aren't pretty, but there is usually a lesser of two evils. If a voter decides to throw away their vote, that's on them, not the candidate or the political party. Personal accountability.
You know what Maga says about the rest of us: “TDS“ well, you have HDS. It serves absolutely no purpose to still be rehashing this now. Make some useful suggestions or just shut up.
We have one chance to come out of this nightmare with a sea change in policy! Dems lost the easiest election to win in history! & Booker or Mayor Pete will lose!
Bernie & AOC are bringing disgruntled republicans, non voters & pissed off democrats, 35,000 deep, telling people that we can have better!
We have to replace the DNC leadership with progressives that don't take corporate campaign money, and get out of this nightmare with someone who will win back the 6 million voters, otherwise the democrats will never win another election, Rubio will win & this madness continues! Pritzker is the man!
He’s an effing disgusting human being, and that he’s “leading” our country again will be a shame we’ll carry for as long as countries exist. He’s doing immeasurable, lasting damage to every aspect of our lives in this country, coupled with inestimable harm internationally.
Don’t worry. All law & order will return to the utmost of importance as soon as a Democratic person in is leadership. If they happen to be Black, female or a person of color we’ll get our measuring stick out to ensure everything they do is perfect. No tan suits or visible female arms allowed!
Not everyone. Any person who is paying attention knows what imbeciles are running the country. Sadly, we don’t have the immediate power to change it. RESIST, DEMAND, LET THEM KNOW WHO WE WILL VOTE FOR…while we still can.
Yet the MSM just IGNORES it! If it was Biden doing ALL this DAMAGE, they'd be PUSHING for him to be IMPEACHED and calling him CRAZY & UNFIT to serve, but with Trump it's just a SHRUG like "oh so what"!
Is Mr. Spacely Trump getting his "stuff aka sprockets" from Pete the Hedgehog Jetson... and if so... is Bibi on the Signal chat... or just a Iranian news editor... 😏
So are we at war and he just didn’t tell anyone or ask congress for permission? Or are he and the republicans actually working for the government of Israel? Or is the orange menace batshit crazy?
It makes me boiling mad that the media normalises his rude, childish, dangerous, capricious, and bizarre behaviour. It isn't 'taking sides" to report, factually, that, eg: a democratically-elected official who ignores his country's Congress, Constitution and Courts is a Dictator, not a president.
Journalist Dean Blundell suggested "Trump’s team would look for a way to get the president out of the G7 early to avoid exposure. Observers noticed how rarely Trump appears in public and how often he falls asleep when he does. He is not physically able to do the work of the presidency". Blundell
I'm so old I remember normal as being a president having to sell his peanut farm in order to maintain a mile-wide defense line to ensure no presidential action might even suggest a hint of self-enrichment. Now we have this foul creature pocketing hundreds of millions of bribes and taxpayer dollars.
Well he’s actually wearing a catheter now. I guess they got tired of changing his adult diapers. And much too fragrant no doubt. You can smell a catheter too though!!
According to Australian media, Trump was lobbying for Putin to be allowed back into the G8. Said if he hadn’t been removed, we wouldn’t have a war with Ukraine. That was on our National broadcaster tonight.
Seriously?? 🤪He’s still creaming his pants over Putin?? 🤦🏼♀️
I think it’s starting to happen. They don’t want to go down with Trump. This Israel, Iran war might give them the out they’re looking for. Joe Rogan and Tucker are speaking out against Trump. They see the power is shifting
Think we’re approaching a point where some republicans go into their attics and dig out their spines. The one thing most important to a politician is his seat at the table. If Trump’s antics are extreme enough to threaten that, they’ll join the political winds against him. Resistance is not futile!!
I believe you are right. No one at Trump’s parade. An overwhelming turn out for no Kings day all around the U.S. forcing them to see what they didn’t want to acknowledge. We hate this dictator and this kleptocracy. Israel-Iran war gives them an out
His behavior is NOT normal. His actions do NOT uphold the Constitution. He is Not maintaining law and order, fostering or maintaining a 100% Americanism. He is NOT combating autocracy or promoting peace and goodwill on earth. The people are out there protesting. Listen up media, NOW!
Geez!
The Office of the President isn’t the same thing with Donald Trump in it as it was with any of his predecessors. It has been degraded and has no dignity of place. Who doesn’t recognize this?!
Trump says he won't call Gov. Tim Walz after Minnesota shootings: 'He's a mess'
Presidents from both parties have historically called state and local politicians after high-profile tragedies.
Meanwhile, Brad Landers is kidnapped by thugs in a courthouse, an elected official and he is taken by the Gestapo with now explanation.......... this is not longer the USA that I knew.
If you tried to obstruct ICE like this dude, you would have it far worse. He’s protected because he’s a public official. But neither of you have the right to obstruct ICE.
ICE has no obligation to show you, or him, a warrant. ICE does not even need one to make an arrest.
You are being lied to.
.......... take your meds.
Show me the law that says ICE can operate against us with impunity.
The USA has never had a secret police until this fascist took over.
Why would any world leader need to leave on day 1 of any G7 summit, if
1. there wasn’t an emergency in their country
OR
2. they are not at war with a country?
The POTUS travels with a mobile office & can connect with their teams anywhere in the world.
He can’t even handle multitasking 1 day
It’s interesting, in 1.0 they didn’t know what to make of him but in 2.0 they openly just tolerate him, he’s not getting any traction now, like you say, it probably does make him want to run back to his ‘yes’ men!
Trump no longer has the benefit of the doubt. At first, awe at the trappings of the presidency, the motorcades, the Secret Service protection, the pomp, rubbed off on him.
No longer.
He left because he was not the center of attention. He got shot down bigly when they cut him off from taking questions from the press and he was starting his usual whine.
Meanwhile " The President left the G7 summit early to concentrate on the Iran crisis, as other leaders failed to engage with his proposals to kick start world trade"
Miller pulls the levers. He is a petty vindictive narcissistic terrorist and gives the orders, Trump performs his role as president willingly but clumsily. A few good Republicans could save the country but prefer to cower and watch it burn.
Well if someone rang the door or even walked up to Me to declare death to me my first thought would be
Were you instigated w/ the initials DT
I’d then say well in that case you are justified because he has immunity & when the Devine King or Lordship says it’s okay then it must be a just cause
Trump has gamed the system to the
max. Americans will elect a reform
oriented government in due time.
Then we can fix all the multifarious
loopholes and corner cuts Trump
has used.
It will NEVER happen.
Democrats will go into office
and do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING
to prevent the Trumps of the Future.
I wish I could say you’re wrong but I can’t. The weakness isn’t only with DEM’s though. MSM loves the chaos. It buys ratings and attention. I fight back despair daily.
But I’m pretty sure he’s seeing that nobody gives him credence
Nobody cares as long as he stays out of the way
Oh no! Here he comes with money?
More solid than his ideas or words…
Tom Nichols, not everyone shrugs. Are journalist so out of touch with the rest of our country and the rest of the world? You don't have any idea how we, out here in America, feel about this threat. Many of us are fucking scared shitless that the President is insane and has nuclear weapons
I’m beginning to understand how the deplorable Confederate organizers attracted so many adherents. There are a lot of deplorable people out there looking for a person, a creed to follow.
trump's proven that our democracy was just a magical word. With a nod of his head and a quick abracadabra, he's changing democracy into an autocracy right before our very eyes.
Trump gets excited visual displays of his power. His narcissistic injury from that embarrassment of a perade will be so severe he desperately needs to compensate. So the tv images of hundreds of thousands of Iranians snarled in jams because of his ‘truth’ will do.
He’s a sociopathic monster.
Not too long ago, if a US Senator had publicly joked about Americans being murdered in their home in front of their children, there would be bipartisan calls for him to resign. Now, it's "Yeah, we all know that Mike Lee is a tool. Move on."
Oh I believe he is schizophrenic and has dementia. He needs to be removed. Other countries need to call him out on that bs. Make a fool of him publicly.
You invest billions in nuclear deterrence. Then Trump comes along and says, ‘you’d better evacuate or else…’, but everybody shrugs and goes on with his daily business. Yeah, the US are really the greatest again, the greatest joke they are, indeed. Who can take a taco serious?
This felon & his entire administration need to be remove, NOW.
Investigate, indict, convict & lock them away where they can stew in their own evil.
He has completely destroyed America's friendship with allies & made a joke of the country around the world.
Now he's even using the WH as a store.
NOW
It really seems very limiting that nothing can be done about the Mad King because his party controls Congress. This is like his last term when he was trampling through everything like Godzilla and everyone just shrugged and said can't do nothing. Even when the House was retaken, can't do it.
You think criminal Donald Trump will turn honest as a president or do you think he will become more and more the great criminal of the whole world I bet you ex-wife knows she smells like him
Or is this just his "normal" behaviour? Forgetting things through ignorance, pretending to forget when it's convenient. Is he just completely out of his depth? Aided by people who are even more culpable for supporting him and pushing fascist ideas his way that they know he'll like?
Obama was joking but every word is true. We have a bankrupt casino owner, condo salesman, whose big decisions were should I fire Flava Flav on fake reality TV … is running around with no guard rails 👇🏼
Reminds me a little bit of that time Reagan said "The bombing [of the USSR] starts in 30 seconds" - but worse, since this is now out on social media where it immediately propagated around the world beyond anyone's control.
Felon 🍊💩 is a global embarrassment to America & world leaders. He has nothing to offer intellectually, except a stupid photo opportunity for his presidential scrapbook. 😡
Macron should continue mocking felon 🍊💩. Every world leader knows he's a felon & a coward. Trump runs away from conflicts. 🤷🤬
It’s insane what Trump gets away with. Think of the citizens of Iran even if the govt. is rotten, we can say that about many countries around the world. Irresponsible and threatening social media post, makes you wonder which faction on any given day is in charge of WH.
..especially Main Stream Media
Biden never posted shit like that
yet someone ensconced in MSM like JakeOff Tapper writes a book based upon perceived nutty behavior
meanwhile Demented Donnie is flinging shit out of his diaper at every aspect of this nation that made it great & the MSM applauds
W T F
Just stop with blaming MSM for everything. How many books have been written that were/are very critical of Trump? The NYT, WaPo, WSJ, and other publications are still investigating and reporting. All of the networks have programs with guests of varying viewpoints. You prefer state run media?
Not everything
but MSM certainly have not risen to journalistic
excellence.
Many small media outlets have & are doing a much better job of delivering the whole truth
the entire story
I prefer media with balls with guts not afraid to tell the truth and not beholden to government bc the owner of the outlet is a billionaire
you must be affiliated with some MSM outlet as you vociferously defend them
subscribe to whatever you want Melissa
but most MSM short the truth
So what billionaire owns ABC, NBC, CNN,? The media is a business and in order to stay in business they must make a profit. You can buy shares of stock in most of them. Most of these companies have various divisions under one umbrella. Bezos owns WaPo and he also owns Prime
Have you not witnessed ABC NBC CNN capitulate to this "Admonistration?"If not you are biased
go do the legwork..
the shit is out there about how ABC (Disney) rolled over for profit,intimidated by trump and all the lawsuits from trump threatening MSM outlets
fuck the profit tell us the truth
What movies or projects are being produced that can be very different than the newspaper? Same with Apple, Paramount, HBO/Max, etc. Did you know that Rupert Murdoch invested in Vice News to keep it from going under? You want guts and balls for sensation or excitement or do you want credibility?
Yep, the man who "claimed" he could end the Ukraine & Gaza war in 24 hrs, has not only FAILED to do that but made them WORSE & NOW has US IN yet ANOTHER ONE & he just DID it in a heartbeat! DIDN'T go thru Congress or follow NORMAL procedures for such a thing because he NEVER DOES THAT!
I am not so much concerned about the health of DJT but more concerned about the health of our nation and its pocket book! IMO, he is working on his next bankruptcy...
It's obvious he is not functioning with the degree necessary to make competent decisions. Born same yr as him. I can tell from having watched him in interviews from before he got into politics. Newsom saw it too that he is NOT the same even from just 4 years ago. His decline is increasing quickly.
Only can do that if his health condition doesn't have overt physical signs that can't be hidden with make up. His abberant speaking patterns are getting so obvious that they can't be ignored.
Look, I'm not trying to be an ageist, but too many politicians are staying in the game WAY too long because power/connections/money allow it. There will always be exceptions, but I think we should set a maximum age for public office. The risk of dementia just increases as we age.

ARE we at war with Iran.
This needs to go Viral like now
Any other questions?
The "team" being whom?
“ Don’t go in there “ .😬
RIP Jimmy.
('The' is pronounced 'thee' here)
Slim Pickens would hate trump too.
it does look like there is legislation to prevent him from starting a war.
but they may need to impeach him to make it happen
Seriously?? 🤪He’s still creaming his pants over Putin?? 🤦🏼♀️
And the Army Parade... they looked like they were in work-to-rule mode... for the draft dodger who highjacked their Day of Honor, for himself.
Geez!
Normalizing hateful, violent madness is a hazardous practice.
Presidents from both parties have historically called state and local politicians after high-profile tragedies.
stop saying the rest of us are normalizing it

NOW
take notes.
Tens of millions want him out, gone, out of the picture.
So we can sleep and live well.
I hate to wish time away. It’s unwise to do.
But, Next Election, please hurry up. We need you.
Just imagine if someone were to hack the account and issue fake orders, like maybe directing the US Marshals to arrest and detain ICE.
Without the President shitting himself lmao
Is it fake pic?

This is NOT NORMAL.
Why is the media treating this like this is how leadership leads?!
"Trump says he aced a cognitive test during physical exam." Sound familiar?
