Trump: “I take Putin at his word”

Donald Trump says he’ll block every Congressional bill until we pass the SAVE Act—basically saying he wants to hold us hostage unless we disenfranchise millions of voters and their access to the ballot box. So let us be clear.

We are NOT 👏 going 👏 to 👏 pass 👏your 👏 voter suppression bill.

Period.

A Trump pos which reads:
The United States of America has beaten and completely decimated Iran, both Militarily, Economically, and in every other way, but the Countries of the World that receive Oil through the Hormuz Strait must take care of that passage, and we will help - A LOT! The U.S. will also coordinate with those Countries so that everything goes quickly, smoothly, and well. This should have always been a team effort, and now it will be - It will bring the World together toward Harmony, Security, and Everlasting Peace! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Trump begging for help against a military he claims is 100% defeated and from allies he has spent a year insulting.

It’s over.

Not yet officially but politically, Trump’s Presidency died this week.

Trump has shredded the Constitution. He's taken an axe to checks and balances. He's using the presidency to line his own pockets. This is why we need to make sure that on March 28 — two weeks from today— we march across America in the largest demonstration in the nation’s history. NoKings.org

Steps in Trump war rhetoric:

1. We don’t have to play by the rules in war

2. We won the war

3. If you go by the rules I just made up we won

4. No fair

When coronavirus first hit 6 years ago, I warned that Trump would do a disastrous job handling it.

400,000 Americans died of Covid-19 under Trump.

Now he and his lackeys are dismantling our public health agencies and firing experts who could protect us from the next pandemic.

Trump's family, kids, grandkids, will never be safe after trump assassinated the new Leader of Iran's family.
I would imagine Iran's people are already looking for them.
