Anybody else think that DT has given Putin our nuclear secrets? Why not?? He will do anything to please the murderous dictator. And Putin had to ADVISED DT not to tell anyone. Because his mouth is so big, and he can't shut it.

I’m sure of it, just based on how his craven sociopathic mind ticks. Quid pro quo?

This is some scary shit. Everyday the Trump agenda gets more and more ominous. Seriously, how do MAGA loyalist support this charlatan? God help us all if he actually wins this election.

Trump freely gave away our precious resources, to our enemy-Putin, shipping & handling including. Paid for by taxpayers under the cover of the Presidency and with no accountability. 40+% of Americans need to wake the F up and understand that this man is self serving and selfish. A criminal who is deeply flawed on so many levels.

All the more reason for us to vote. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the map was mostly blue with just a touch of purple?

Trump is a Manchurian Candidate definition: A person, especially a politician, being used as a puppet by an enemy power. He needs to be tried for treason. Let us all call him what he is——A Manchurian Candidate!

I have a strange feeling that Trump & Neo-Nazi friends (and international corps and oligarchs) actually want Trump to lose the election….. the idea being that it was rigged against him from the get-go; therefore his loss is the final provocation to the white Christian nationalist armed wings, to spring into widespread insurrection and violence as a consequence of losing the election. Now this may be delayed after Election Day by their machinations to 1) throw the electoral process to the House. This would not be reliable since the democrats are poised to take back control of the House. So, 2) or plan A might just be what they tried on January 6 2021; or 3) take out any competitors and just declare martial law (Dictator On Day 1); in that case, why wait for certification? Why not launch the revolution on Nov 6 or 7? Trump’s recent talk about a day of violence ( see: “The Purge” sick movies) is projection that he will “Release the Kracken”), in other words, call for violent mass violence “Like You’ve Never Seen Before”. Sort of like what Charlie Manson dreamed about; to start a race war that is really just a putsch.

To support this, consider the possibility that the Jan 6 2021 violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol was just a poorly planned rehearsal.

This would be a great gift to his Master, Vladimir. So beware of this tyrant : he is nobody’s sweetheart, and he means to work his wrathful retribution whether he wins or not (with lots of encouragement from Vlad)!
