Trump acts as though other world leaders actually listen to what he says. However, based on the responses, they negotiate on trade because it's a low win option but overall, he's considered a laughing stock.

Boomers- if you approved of Nixon leaving office over Watergate, or condemned Clinton for his actions with an intern, but stand quietly by while Trump continues to disgrace the office simply because you like some of his policies, you are a hypocrite. You've lost all claim to moral authority.

This Memorial Day I'm struck by the difference between ordinary Americans who served their country, and President bone spurs who avoided serving, berates "losers" who are not wealthy and can't tolerate differences of opinion without lashing out due to insecurity. Honor the vets, ignore the coward.

Legit question; who would be a realistic Dem candidate for 2028? Somebody who could hold the left AND that critical center vote? If they put up a traditional Dem candidate, we can look forward to an admin of little JD and Marco for more years than any of us want.

Want to end election tampering? Deal with the elephant in the room that "feeds" both sides - heavily gerrymandered districts that all but ensure incumbent reelection.

Your School House Rock moment.....

This lives in what space remains where his brain was, so there’s that.

While we are all rightfully focused on dump, PLEASE do not lose sight of "little wannabe JD" This guy is in line for POTUS this next round and will faithfully carry out the will of his master. We should not give little wannabe JD a free pass for his own moronic comments.

I'm 62+ so I get this might not resonate, but I recall being taught throughout my childhood (in school, church, family and sports) that without character, so-called "winning" will not lead to long term success. That message has clearly been lost. I wish we could bring it back. Character matters!!

What a surprise. A criminal is elected and he acts... Like a criminal.

Sadly true

Repost if you can.

Sadly too true.

If you have not yet read "Careless People" by Sarah Wynn-Williams, you should do so ASAP. This will help explain why tech-bros are suddenly lining up to kneel before this administration. The book should also help motivate people to get off FB and IG. We are literally paying billionaires to screw us.

It all makes sense if you just redefine basic terms... Trump=America.... and great=rich. So, make Trump rich again. MAGA has no clue they are voting against their own grandchildren. Trump and his billionaire friends laugh all the way to the bank because in a few years it will no longer matter.

George Takei Great. Now I need to inject bleach into my eyes.

Tiny egos can't handle anything other than total servitude. www.bbc.com/news/article...

If the Republican Congress is so committed to helping families, why is there no discussion of either: larger tax breaks for a stay at home parent - OR - subsidies that make child care affordable.

This is really funny, and sadly accurate

I have called myself a follower of Jesus for 40+ years so let me be clear. We should WHOLEHEARTEDLY REJECT any attempt to use the name of Jesus as a means to justify what this administration is doing.

Hey Democratic leadership, America desperately needs you to find your collective voice and stand up to what is happening. The next generation needs you to lead...PLEASE!!!
