WHOA: Obama rarely acknowledges Trump's weird fixation on him and his family, but he did today. "Look, constantly worrying about [me] is a strange thing to me. It shows me somebody who’s not focused on the American people and the job they’re supposed to do," he said of Trump.
Not just dead last in Presidential rankings, but a truly loathsome "human" being in his own right & the worst thing that ever happened to this country. Someone should post this on "Truth" Social or Fox "News" so he would actually see it. #Embarrassment_In_Chief

CRINGE Trump couldn’t get anyone to perform at his Maga rally last night, because he turned America’s 250th anniversary into a political stunt, so he forced the US Marine Band to be there and made them play YMCA while he performed his signature moves of simulating jerking someone off.
And just like MAGA, they'll blame Ukraine instead of their dear leader. The mean Ukrainians have no right to blow up their oil. How could they do this and why isn't anyone stopping them? There's a total lack of self-awareness in the Russian mindset.
The internet is being flooded with Russian tears of people unable to find and buy gasoline in Russia.
NBC: “This new U.N.-commissioned report carried out by a committee of independent experts says Israeli troops deliberately shot at Palestinian children and carried out genocide and war crimes… over 21,000 children died.”
