Atlantic writer Tom Nicols said it’s not enough that President Donald Trump is a bumbling fool whose mistakes make the nation look like idiots: He’s a vicious bumbling fool who wants to blame others for his buffoonery. No brakes on this bus! www.alternet.org/trump-narcis...

Historians will call this elder abuse. Trump was never well—he’s been diseased in the head since childhood, from throwing rocks at babies to threatening local kids with a bat to trying to murder a classmate to stealing valor (incredibly) in *high school*—but he’s utterly gone. This is a horror-show.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2h agoTrump: "You see it in the blue states run by Democrats -- everything is filthy dirty all the time. The cities stink The sidewalks are loaded w/horrible stuff. I don't want to use the term bc my wife hates it. She hates it when I imitate no men in women's sports, when I do the weightlifter."
The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!

Senator Whitehouse pointing out how absolutely ludicrous it is to vote for Todd Blanche. There will never be any justice for the Epstein survivors, no justice for the families of the victims of ICE andno justice for the Capitol police that were attacked on Jan. 6. #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance
Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸@judiciarydems.senate.gov · yesterdaySen. WHITEHOUSE: Voting for this guy Todd Blanche today gives Republicans’ blessing to the botched Epstein Files release. Even Pam Bondi pointed at Blanche as responsible. It gives their blessing to his continuing role in the coverup.
Donald Trump cares more about making Vladimir Putin happy than he cares about doing what he promised those who voted for him. Read that again. It’s gut wrenching.
So you can’t afford groceries, gas, healthcare, utilities, or your mortgage. But hey, I got gold horses.
"Pirro clearly wanted to spare herself any further scrutiny by the courts, but her motion to dismiss is comically inept, an attempt to paper over the fact her office charged Hearn based only on Trump's fevered imaginings. All it does is highlight how much she was willing to lie in the first place."
