I'm sick of Trump's betrayal and dereliction of duty.
He's a traitor and a criminal and a tyrant. That makes him an enemy of this country. I don't say this lightly.
You say want a revolution. Well, you know, you should start with Thomas Paine. He spoke of common sense, and community and of posterity. He did not encourage selfishness and greed.
This "American Carnage" ends here and now.
To MAGAS:
1)Trump preyed on your weaknesses.
2)Trump preyed on your fear.
3)Trump preyed on your prejudices.
4)Trump preyed on your traditions.
5)Trump preyed on your superstions.
6)Trump betrayed us both.
7)A house divided against itself cannot stand.
8)We will never completely rid our country of bureaucracy, incompetence, greed, and lies.
9) It's better to be fooled by false promises than to burn down the house.
10)Watch The Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol on PBS or YouTube.
11) A vote for Trump just might be your last vote ever.
12) Trump actually is a criminal and a danger to democracy and our country and us.
13)A vote for anyone but Biden is a vote for Trump.
Precisely, where is JUSTICE? The "gag" needs to be around DJTs (et al )mouth not just on paper so their litany of evidence free accusations will stop!!!!!
@William Whitman I feel the same way, but that's a tough ask. He's supposed to be above the law. That remains to be seen. But he does have rights. Of course he's abusing the gag order. I expected that.
He has rights, but as a pre-trial defendant they can be, and should be, circumscribed. Far more than any court has done so far - and no, it's not "political" to do so, but for basic safety of everyone within striking distance of any of his civil or criminal matters (expressly including the Colorado and Maine actions striking him from their ballots as disqualified to hold elected office). And his "striking distance" is vast and deep. Cf. the bomb threats against schools, synagogues, courts and individual named people.
Hey Gus, how did you get all that double space in? I couldn't get my response letter in my post below and had to post it above. This WaPo "20 years of experience" columnist Blake is as smart as a box of rocks.
When tRump was POTUS every single day I woke up to hear about what ridiculous thing he had said and/or done the previous day. Now we are audience to what new evidence has come to light proving what an absolute crook and scoundrel he was while in office. When he is finally brought to task and thrown in prison for a fraction of all his corrupt and villainous behaviors, we can take a collective sigh of relief. Until that time we must stay vigilant and doggedly keep at the prosecution of this nightmare named tRump! Our very future as a democracy depends on our success!
Not just America's future as a democracy depends on defusing this weapon of mass destruction in human guise, but global survival.
Given the unprecedented material power of the USA, this criminal lunatic is potentially more dangerous than Hitler, Stalin, Mao and all history's tyrants rolled up into one.
There is an entire party standing behind this anomaly feeding the bottom dwellers each day. THAT scares me, just as much, if not more. Not to mention the majority of SCOTUS, trained, bought and/or paid for by one Society (and big monied interests). I'll throw in another plug for Senator Whitehouse' excellent book "The Scheme" in which he carefully puts these background issues in sharp focus. As so often is implied in this forum, even when tfg is yesterday's trash, we still have many antidemocratic forces with which to contend, both in and outside of government.
Will Trump be off the ballot everywhere? We just don't know that yet do we?
Jaime Raskin said that in our culture, it's not just the foot soldiers that get punished, the Masterminds and ringleaders do also. Well good luck with that Jaime but I wouldn't hold my breath. A blue wave however, might just dump the trump.
We can hope for justice, but there's no telling when or how it will come. That's why I'm focused on November 5th. It's just Trump that we have to dump. It's Congress and everything right down the line. Vote Blue.
I really need to use notes or something to write comments. On several occasions I have been at the end of a ( probably too) lengthy comment that is so on target and contains the one true answer to the problem (😉😂) and then my finger slips or the phone jiggles or the battery dies, and comment is gone.
Yes. I have used that. Good tips. But keep in mind, I think many here are using their phones or tablets. I don't do that. Too restrictive. I am happily typing on my compact convertible Chromebook.
@ gus....Drumpy not only preys on the MAGA's fears but creates most of them himself with his rally rants about his dark vision of America (made up especially for them).
I know that these words are wrapped up and denoted - if not specifically delineated in yours Gus ... but sometimes one must call a spade a spade. So what’s missing are those who possess or lack or exhibit their ignorance, stupidity, jealousy and hatred of things and others as well as being void of respect and common decency!!!
I know right! But there are some well meaning people out there that were brainwashed. We have to reach them somehow so they can take their blinders off. We need their votes. Blaming them isn't going to do that.
We need to fight fiction with facts.

What you so eloquently said. I concur.
Thank you. Just plain straight talk is all.
Project 2025. Any GOP has the plan.
@Ricky Woody So I've heard.

He's not supposed to be above the law.
I know, I know. I've forgotten now if that was a typo or very bad wording.
Hey Gus, how did you get all that double space in? I couldn't get my response letter in my post below and had to post it above. This WaPo "20 years of experience" columnist Blake is as smart as a box of rocks.
I used a note app, then copy and paste.

All rolled into one, no doubt
Roly Poly Big Mac 'n' all!
I agree 💯%!

I meant NOT just
Also I missed the the @Carol Ann Bishop at the beginning.
Sorry for the non-edit. I'm on an Android.

Don’t you hate when that happens? You’ve solved the problem for all time and poof! 💨
But the howler and those typos slide in unnoticed till after you hit the Post button every time.
That's why bowlers lean after releasing. It doesn't help but it helps.
Been there. Done that.
🙄😳😵💫🫣😢
Yep, got the tee shirt.
I’ve been using Shift-Enter to make two forced line returns in Word instead of a Paragraph typically made with Return.
It seems unnecessary if copying and pasting from Word but does work for some situations where the use of Return didn't produce the desired result.
(I've edited out the portion of the test that showed either way works with Word.)
Yes. I have used that. Good tips. But keep in mind, I think many here are using their phones or tablets. I don't do that. Too restrictive. I am happily typing on my compact convertible Chromebook.
@Bill Alstrom. Sounds like good advice. Mine is not so compact, but I should use it for this.
Interesting. I just looked at Bryan's comment and the whole thing was there in one place, but not in the original comment box. I'm still learning.
@ gus....Drumpy not only preys on the MAGA's fears but creates most of them himself with his rally rants about his dark vision of America (made up especially for them).
14) tfg is no more interested in your welfare than he is likely to drop 50 lbs. Don’t believe it.
Gus, please broadcast your list as far and wide as possible!!!!!
@Katharine Hill... Thank you. You and anyone else are free to do the same.

@Jim Riley,

Outstanding!
Why are so many Biden campaign workers quitting? Is he really that big a loser, or is something else going on?
