Anyone else just tired? It’s constant shenanigans from this administration, and our mental health has taken such a beating. We just wanted to say that if you’re feeling the same way, we understand. We’re here with you and for you. It’s a lot.

Trump deflects on a question about the Butler, PA assassination attempt. Reporter: Can you provide us with more information on the evidence you learned? Trump: No I can't. The Butler thing is strange. Very strange situation. You'll have to check with the law enforcement.
The Trumper elevates the politicians' classic saying of "stupid is as stupid does" to a whole new level!
Too bad many people have all the guns they need, thanks to the GOP. Most people think poorly of brutish thugs knocking on their door.... We are not Germany in this particular instance.
