That stuff causes long term societal scars as well. Even after the dictatorship falls, people remember which families or ethnic/demographic groups were the rats.
In Nazi Germany people would rat on others for not having or displaying their copy of Mein Kampf.

That's it for my US travel, nothing else booked.

Had an interesting conversation with a lady in the car rental line, there really are some Trump supporting lunatics down there. I asked if she was bothered by the fact that Trump was found civily liable in a sexual assault case. She literally replied "Biden is also a rapist!".

Couldn't give me any details on the case or the name of the victim though. They really are invested in defending the rapist clown.
She said Biden was “also” a rapist? That’s quite the admittance for a MAGAt.

Thats the thing about the state of the world and the Dotard in office, it should be easy to say it's fake (it is indeed fake), but there's enough believability about it that you can't just dismiss it.

Yeah fake, they call him FOTUS though, where the F stands for Felon

His social post from 528 am was real though, apparently he saw his 39% favorability ratings and was upset.

Quote:
City prosecutors have filed criminal charges against six men involved in a chaotic legislative town hall, including the private security guards who dragged a Post Falls woman out of the Coeur d’Alene High School auditorium.

Paul Trouette, Russell Dunne, Christofer Berg and Jesse Jones, all of whom are associated with the security firm Lear Asset Management, are charged with the misdemeanor crimes of battery and false imprisonment. The five men and Alex Trouette were also cited for security agent uniform violations and security agent duties violations.

Yeah, when I first saw it, I believed it for a second before I had to wonder.

After all, this is the same guy that once posted; "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!", which I also thought was fake and turned out to be real.

He may make it a criminal offence not to display a photo of a naked Melania Trump.

This was the Faux News graphic this morning touting the first 100 days


PRESIDENT TRUMP'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS

-- Declassified the JFK files
-- Ended federal support for paper straws
-- Ended production of the penny


That was it, that was the list

Trump may still not know how tariffs work...or what a trade deficit is

“You don’t know whether or not China’s going to eat it. China probably will eat those tariffs,” Trump said Tuesday in an interview with ABC News. “China was making $1 trillion dollars a year. They were ripping us off like nobody has ever ripped us off. Almost every country in the world was ripping us off. They’re not doing that anymore.”

Trump said he did not believe hard times were ahead for US consumers, while acknowledging that his 145% tariffs on many Chinese goods amounted to a near-embargo.

“That’s good,” Trump said. “They deserve it.”

As per White House, Trump Regime is open to suspending Habeus Corpus.


To any of the Pro-Trumpers here, why don’t you show yourself and explain yourself?

I wonder what John McCain would think about his old buddy Lindsey and whats happening with Ukraine.

Well really don't need to imagine, he would be utterly shouting on the Senate floor in support of Ukraine and calling Putin and Russia what they are.
