Yes indeed—the Trump administration *is* a host of firsts! Most corrupt. Most perverse. Most perverted. Most delusional. Most unloved. While citizens struggle, Trump (not so) secretly secures billions in personal wealth. O happy day!

Let's hope that these numbers are indicative of the people who did not bother to vote (what really sunk this country on the last go-around) are feeling more incentivized to actually show up at the polls in the upcoming go-arounds.

I get where the 'my vote doesn't really matter' or 'I am not political at all' vibes come from but I have very little patience for them because even if one cannot see what's in it for themselves, I absolutely disdain that they cannot at least see something in it for others.

Here's to seeing something worthwhile in others even if you basically do not really give a shit about yourself in 2026 and beyond!

The biggest problem America has with Trump is that he has no clue how to govern. Whom did he pick as staff? Pam Bondi. Kristen Nome. Pete Hegseth. This guy only made it to major, and he’s firing combat-hardened, well-seasoned generals for no reason whatsoever. And he who says he can win wars in three weeks? No sympathy for that devil.

Three more years of this portends the end of the US. The consequences of all of the damage this madman has created up to this point has pushed us to the edge of the cliff. Three more years and it’s game over. This has to end very soon.

Tom, as always, is spot on.

Time for the 25th! That’s going to be far from a complete fix, but it will be a start. The madman must go….

The task for Democrats is to persuade as many independent voters as possible that while Trump was doing his worst he had unflinching support from elected Republicans. At the right time they can also try to tell them that Trump's grip on the Republican party is likely to extend after he leaves the Oval Office. Unless he mercifully enters dementia or whatever befalls him after an earlier than hoped for death, an endorsement or disendorsement by that (expletives deleted) fool will count for an awful lot in Republican Primaries.

A 2019 Georgetown University study found that affluent children with low test scores have a 71% chance of being affluent adults at age 25 compared to only a 31% chance for poor children with high test scores.

The rethuglicans are determined to perpetuate this.

This is what drives them.

The American people must drag all Republicans down to Dave Jones Locker.

When an animal is backed into a corner (I'm looking at you, lunatic demagogue in the WH), it shifts into survival mode. Feeling threatened and trapped, it will exhibit intense fear aggression, desperate self-defense and panic actions. Our cornered animal exhibits that kind of behavior every single day and the end doesn't appear to be in sight. We can only hold our collective breath and hope that someone will hide the nuclear football from him because I wouldn't put it past him to sacrifice the entire planet if fed his fragile ego if only for a moment before Armageddon arrived.

The fact that a full 40 percent of Trump supporters can't even bring themselves to condemn the Jesus image just adds to that toxic waste-filled mountain of evidence that proves their cult status. There are things I would disapprove of my own children doing, and they are genuinely wonderful humans who I love more than anyone else in this world. Have some dignity, people. Stop coddling the widdle feelings of the world's most malignant toddler.

22.5% strongly approve! Seriously?
