OMG, that one got me too and then the new names following that one. I had to stop eating for fear of choking. 😂 Thank you for the full on belly laughs this morning Jeff!
If my better/kinder half isn't with me (so they'll think I'm laughing at -- er, with him) I try to go somewhere they know me to do my reading-while-dining... it's always awkward trying to explain why I'm looking at my phone and laughing like a maniac...
I would be laughing my arse off it I didn’t want to wake hubby up & stop his snoring!😂😂….Jeff, the laughs just keep coming! That one line makes the subscription worthwhile——and we get so many more!!😉
How anyone can watch Donald TRump speak and not think he is just completely insane is beyond my comprehension. Biden has a lifelong stutter and he contemplates before he speaks while Trump just blathers on and makes no sense whatsoever. I'm just befuddled how anyone in their right mind (oh wait!) could ever look at that man and think "He's my guy!" I'm embarrassed by the amount of stupid in our country. I just don't get it...🙄
From covfefe to hamberders and now respeckered, it has been obvious for a while that the demented mango menace with his shit for brains hasn't been running on all cylinders. That hole upstairs appears to be getting deeper along with what's left of his deep fried circuits. Further proof of why today's malignant GOP wants to keep their MAGA base stupid and uneducated.
I can't remember where he got it (for all I remember, I gave it to him for his birthday) but my dad had a book back in the day called "The Wit and Wisdom of Spiro T Agnew" -- all totally blank pages and not very many of them. He was quite amused by it and kept it on the coffee table -- which is also where his own dad would see it when he visited and be completely irritated at how disrespectful it was.
At least a Trumpanese dictionary wouldn't be totally blank... :) but to keep it on the coffee table, there would have to be NO PICTURES lol
The folks who like Trump live with crazy people who rant all the time. Imagine the speeches given in biker bars after a round of six packs, and Trump starts to sound articulate and well informed!
Yeah, I absolutely judge MAGAt asshats, but I've known more than a few bikers who are not only kind (they only look scary), but wise and progressive minded.
I know a guy who runs with a bike crew he’s 6’5” ,280lbs. Likes his facial hair ,hard not to look scary! He’s a Pediatrician ,the kiddos love ❤️ love him,think he’s a bear !🐻
My mechanic looks really rough around the edges, lotsa tattoos, and swears all the time, spends all day Sunday riding. Don't bring your car in Friday morning because he quits at about noon because he's orthodox Jewish.
Same!! I can’t even begin to fathom it as well. He’s gotten so much worse in the past 6 months alone, that it’s impossible to make sense of what he’s trying to say. He’s completely lost his ever loving mind.
And yet the mainstream media, even what's perceived as liberal media, keeps hammering on Joe Biden's mental fitness! It is absolutely maddening! I've gotten to the point where I just can't watch the news right now. I'm afraid I'll throw the remote at my TV and break it!
I agree. The media is seriously pissing me off. I like the saying going around which is, “yeah, they’re both old, but Trump is pure evil.” I’ll vote the sane choice, thank you
I have found myself literally screaming at my television! I'm choosing to read my news right now rather than watch the news. The talking heads have seriously pissed me off.🤬
Yesterday, someone posted: "If your house is on fire and two elderly firefighters show up—one with a hose and the other with a can of gas—it’s not a hard decision who’s the man for the job."
Yeah the hubby looks at me: you do know the TV can’t talk back… I don’t care the TV is dumb and the newscaster is dumber than a box of rocks..🤭 yeah, I’m the person who talks and yells at the TV…
I do love them, but Robyn has some problems with fact checking, as in some of her stuff is easily fact checked to be false. Not much but certain subjects. Dok Zoom is awesome, and Evan is sublimely obscene. The "Vegan babby butthole" post is the funniest thing I have ever read in my life. There are a few lies that are so entrenched, like calling Tucker Carlson the Swanson heir. He is not, that was his stepmother (who adopted him), but her brother stole her trust fund, and bankrupted the company, which was then sold to General Foods which kept the name.
I love the satire and often it is just what the doctor ordered but if you go against some of the group-think/accepted narrative they'll sting you, in the comments.
I can totally relate and I damn near did whip my remote at the TV, but I walked out and waited for the "story" (I remember when I was a kid that they used to say you were telling stories if they thought you were lying) to end.
Do like I did years ago when I got fed up with the “Donald Trump” show on every channel, get the AP breaking news, it’s free and it’s only facts. I have to watch special events but that’s all I can stomach. I was a Morning Joe die hard fan. Just can’t any longer. I would watch coverage of Trumps trial if they televise it but I won’t listen to a bunch of so called experts say the same things over and over.
I love the fact that Laura Trump might be ruling over the RNC. That's fabulous. Putting the fox in charge of the hen house will be the gift that keeps giving to Democrats. He will bleed them all dry. No money for anyone else. He is taking the whole GQP party will him to hell. There is plenty of time for him to burn it all to the ground before November.
And fuck those polls. They are all bullshit. Nothing but goddamn clickbait. Let's see, 1 in 5 believe Taylor Swift is a deep state conspiracy. Well, 4 in 5 don't. MSM drives the message of hate. It's profitable. American Oligarchs welcomed Russian dollars with open arms.. How many of those dollars flow through our media??
Since you brought up Lara Trump, I saw a story in the Independent where Fugly's former lawyer, Cohen said that orangey hated her and didn't want Eric to marry her.
She is not very attractive, in spite of the large amount of plastic surgery she has had done. (I was a surgical assistant for twenty years, so I know good work when I see it). It's kind of sad, to spend all that money and go to a subpar surgeon. I have nothing against work done well, if the person does it for themself.
Do we think that these ongoing public meltdowns by Trump was what was meant when Bannon called for his followers to ‘fill the zone with shit’ ? If so, boy is it working !
It's truly jaw dropping. It takes me back to all the weird science fiction movies of the 50s and 60s it seems so poorly done and yet there they all are, sitting at his rant fests listening like he was their savior for sure.
Speaking of movies from that time period and also noting that some fictional works are becoming reality today, Invasion of the Body Snatchers seems to be a likely suspect with the Kult45 Krazy Klan. 🤨
I don't know; I'm sort of expecting The Blob. I wonder if freezing Trump with a fire extinguisher and sending him to the Arctic circle will give us a few years' peace.
I was thinking exactly of the Body Snatchers. It terrified me as a child and now here we are, living a version of that out now. That's exactly what it feels like. And I remember, some good people were turned into those feelingless things.
Yes,I totally agree.This fidiot( my new word combining 2 known words lol) is who the Republican Party is choosing to represent the American people on the world’s stage! Give me a freaking break!
Jorden Klepper interviewed some of them on the revamped Daily Show. They really don’t know why they support Trump and apparently have never applied critical thinking to anything in their lives.
It’s complete word salad, and made up words at that. I cannot imagine how bad it’s going to get tomorrow after Judge Engoran announces his decision. But honestly, who among us would want to live in a country that isn’t repeckered (or respeckered)?
There used to be an expression way back "too much water in the soup." My late father-in-law told us about it. The reference was that the poor tried to stretch whatever food was available and the lack of nutrition caused problems like this.
Trump's attorney tried to talk over Judge Merchan and got slapped down. I don't think this judge is going to tolerate any acting out in his courtroom. Maybe we'll finally see Trump and his bozo lawyers held in contempt and booted from the trial.
I loved the way the judge said to the attorney, as he was blathering, "so what's your legal argument at this point?". When he said that his non-stop moaning WAS his legal point, the judge disagreed, and said he'd see him on March 25! That's how you handle these shit-bags!
I was a paralegal for over thirty years, and I have never seen the level of sheer incompetence and buffoonery displayed by Trump's "lawyers". Even the worst people I worked for or dealt with knew better than to play games with a judge in open court. This is going to blow up in their faces, big time. How about stiff fines and a few days in jail for contempt? That includes Trump, who of course will not shut up in court or out of it.
As a former legal researcher (courts, firms and corporations) with 30+ years as well, I concur. The last thing you want to happen in court is getting bench slapped.
YESSSS!! Not in the legal profession, but it’s so obvious that all of his lawyers are complete morons. I mean, who argues and insults a judge who has your life in his hands. Duh.
Well then let's see it happen!! Slap Donnie in a jail cell overnight for contempt, take away his phone, and watch his whole demeanor change. The government needs to grow a pair and stop this dangerous nonsense.
However. Last slap by Kaplan's jury seems to have given him 83.3M reasons to stop bellying up to the line in defaming E. Jean Carroll. Big judgments WORK. He's hemorrhaging cash, can't grift enough quickly enough to pay his lawyers or his judgments, and his crown jewel (his "billionaire" status) has long since slipped away (caveat: my favorite consequence, because it's got to be occupying his last remaining brain cells every second of every day). I'm loving this slow-rolling train of daily gifts.
We can’t do anything about Demented Donnie but we can Boost Biden. What do you think it is going to take for Democrats to finally accept that Joe Biden is our nominee, and it is to our advantage to both support and broadcast daily Biden's accomplishments, thus damning the media narrative of Joe is Old? Four days ago an abc poll said 86% of Americans believe Joe Biden is too old to serve another term. In its most recent poll Biden held a lead over Trump 50 - 44 percent among registered voters according to Quinnipiac. The election poll this far out from November ‘is just another poll’. Yet, that 86% figure, close or not, is scary as hell. We must help crush this ageism narrative with facts of Bidens successes and gain the votes of as many Democrats and Independents as we can.
Agree 100%!! I’m not thrilled at Biden’s age, but the media is making him out to be a blithering idiot, while not even touching on Trumps obvious dementia. Seriously, who owns our media???
I wholeheartedly agree. I have found myself becoming really protective of President Biden because he's being attacked on all sides, even by the so-called liberal media. It absolutely INFURIATES me.🤬
If you want to see the press core in full action, watch the daily white house briefing with Karine Jean-Pierre on youtube/Whitehouse channel. These people are vicious at times, rude always, repetitive questions that makes you wonder if they only hear their own words. Its a slithering snake pit and karine is Indiana Jones.
Right-leaning owners. Right-leaning owners own our media. Can't call it mainstream any more as NYT, WaPo, et al have lost too much credibility to call what they do "journalism."
Thank you for clear marching orders,”…support and broadcast daily Biden’s accomplishments, thus damning the media narrative of Joe is old?” People we can do this, failure is not an option.
Hoyt: I wonder how much of that 86% would vote for Biden when the option is the opposite? I think it is possible to think that Biden is too old but also think of voting for him not only because of the alternative, but also because he’s an accomplished president.
Right! My understanding is that as we get closer to election day, more and more people will start paying attention and of course at some point we will finally have the two nominees for certain, lots of people on both sides think their opponent might not be the nominee, this keeps things confusing. Trumps trials and tribulations will take a toll and if nothing drastic happens, just as that recent Quinnipiac poll indicates, Biden can win. Polling with all its flaws has been moving toward Biden but there are some weird things happening like black men on board with trumps bravado and college students upset that Biden supports Israel, And as you know there are many many more issues that play into strategy of pushing Biden over 270 electoral votes which may require ten million more Biden votes than tRump to achieve that end goal, up from 8 million in 2020.
"You illiterate traffic cone" ... is anyone compiling these? 🤣 Seriously, it is a travesty that the "media" doesnt share LDFF's stumblings. Sure am happy you print out what he says cause listening to his sing-song whine is too much for me! The best part is Biden's answer to the press: "YOU GUYS!" Perfection! Finally, excited about the first trial. Going to be wild. 😂😂
Jeff, I don't know how many hours of Dementia Don videos you have to watch to create the public service that is your column, but we are so appreciative! And you go the further step to write it out for us so that we don't have to listen too! Many, many thanks. We'll help pay for therapy.
If Donnie Dumpsterfire continues on his present trajectory, we can look forward to some epic meltdowns at the podium. He's sinking, and he's pulling the GOP under with him. Jennifer Rubin has a great column today, 4 signs he's losing his grip on the party. If he loses his NY state biz license, if he has to pay money he doesn't have, when no bank will lend to him, the meltdown will accelerate, and I will enjoy every bit of it.
I'm just wondering what the last straw will be, when the sheeple will desert him completely because he's just a third-rate carnival huckster in too much Maybelline... I kinda hope it's a Halloween surprise. :)
I don't think the sheeple will ever be able to quit him. He could shoot their MOTHERS int the middle of fifth avenue and if Fox News told them that it was a good thing, they'd believe it. If/When Trump goes down, they're gonna die mad about it.
Noel Casler used to work for DJT on the stupid reality show he had, and reveals things on social media that he had first-hand knowledge of - like the fact that DJT has a prosthetic on the roof of his mouth, because he's snorted so much adderall that there's a hole in the roof of his mouth. According to Casler, that's why he keeps slurring his words and befuddling words, because the prosthetic slips (so he says things like "the united schtates of america"
He’s not in decline.. he’s a stable fucking genius.. that Fucktwatwhinyassedmotherfuckergriftingasshatofdumbassedness doesn’t know his right hand from his left. Of all the Presidents he’s the dumbest box of moldy bug infested cheerios in the cabinet. He had an IQ of 2 and he knows nothing of our government or what each chamber does. He has handlers who tell him what to do and say and they can’t control him. You want WWIII .. ?!? Then this is your guy. He will destroy everything in his path cause he’s a whiny assed man baby and if he doesn’t get his way he will BURN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY DOWN JUST OUT OF SPITE… cause that is what weak willed drama conspiracy theory wannabe self important misogynistic traitors do. They blame everyone but themselves. They do not take any responsibility of what they say or do. I cannot believe we have a huge faction of MAGaTs who support that POS PIG ( sorry piglets) who grabs women by the P*ssy and thinks that’s ok behavior. It sickens me that this is the guy Repuklicants want and treat him like the second coming of Christ. WTAF is wrong with these mentally deranged people who support a criminal to be placed in the highest office of our country?!!!?!!! Are you fucking kidding me??!! That fucktwat for brains should be imprisoned for life just for inciting a fucking mob in The Capitol!!! He does NOT get a pass!! FUCK DRUMPF 🖕🏽.. now let me tell you how I really feel😳
Hehehe yeah me holding back.. I gotta tell my hubby that.. yup huge eye roll.. and he says I need to learn how to play nice.. my reply: have you met me??!!??🤣😂🤣
Trump claims that the world laughs at America. If they did it is because of him. He is who the world laughs at.
Good thing Trump didn't go to public school or serve in the military. In either place he would have been a daily rumpled pile of FUBAR because of his thinking that he was so much smarter and better than everyone else.
Tomorrow is the day that his financial fraud guillotine is scheduled to fall. I sincerely hope that Trump Inc dissolves into the dumpster where it belongs. The good people of NYC hope as well also as they have had the scumbag in their faces for 77 years.
Respeckered by Venezuler. Lovely! The mad world of Emperor Shitstain. Bragg brings the first indictments and through the twists and turns and fuckery of the legal system, he gets the first crack at the shitgibbon. Game on!!
I’m so excited!!! The first criminal trial starts March 25 and there’s not a fucking thing Diaper Donny can do to stop it!! It’s deeeeeelicious! It must have made what little is left of his tiny brain explode when he was told, no, your “presidential immunity” claim won’t work here because you weren’t president yet…idiot. Also delicious was how Marchan cut right through Trump’s lame ass excuse of “sorry, can’t be tried right now because I’m running for president to escape prison” by simply telling his attorney to sit down STFU.
Jeff, True the Vote came up with no evidence yesterday in court. 2000 Mules(asses) was a grift by a convicted felon, a felon pardoned by TFG.. Man, my MAGA friends are pissed this morning.. I love the smell of desperation in the am.🤠
I love the stress relieving witty pot shots at the idiot leader of a deplorable mob but once in awhile we should step aside and notice that Trump supporters identify with him going back to the first election of Barack Obama and the eruption of the Tea Party over that event. They don't care if he is insane, or a criminal, or both. They love the racism and everything that goes with that. They love him because they are just like him. I know we're not supposed to say it but Clinton was right about them. The same percentage of Americans support Trump as supported Lindberg, Father Coughlin, and the Nazi Party and before that Dixiecrats and the Confederacy. If anyone bothered to look I bet they are directly related, as in Close Family ties.
The funny thing is. I had a friend at the time (never knew she ws a right-winger) because it was in the before-times, and she embraced it, and said they took the label on. I said "Why would you identify with that? If that's not you and you aren't, you shrug and let it go because it doesn't apply to you." Wingers are weird.
"...you illiterate traffic cone"
priceless! and I think you matched his shade of bronzer just perfectly... :D
Traffic cones may be orange and unable to speak, but at least they do their best to keep people safe, unlike the Orange Fucking Menace.
OMG, that one got me too and then the new names following that one. I had to stop eating for fear of choking. 😂 Thank you for the full on belly laughs this morning Jeff!
Came here to say same. Brilliant.
I have learned the hard way, no eating or drinking while reading Jeff’s column!
But traffic cones serve a useful purpose.
gotta love it!
Yep that was the biggest LOL of the morning🤣😂
Cracked me up 😂
I’m in a diner and laughed out loud. I disturbed the other diners 🤣🤣🤣
If my better/kinder half isn't with me (so they'll think I'm laughing at -- er, with him) I try to go somewhere they know me to do my reading-while-dining... it's always awkward trying to explain why I'm looking at my phone and laughing like a maniac...
Respecter to Jeff!
Priceless
Hilarious 🤣 🤣🤣
I just restocked that little ditty. Jeff’s creative wordsmithing is beyond astounding.
I died another day when I read that too. I laughed so hard that I coughed and choked.
I cracked up over that one too!
I would be laughing my arse off it I didn’t want to wake hubby up & stop his snoring!😂😂….Jeff, the laughs just keep coming! That one line makes the subscription worthwhile——and we get so many more!!😉

From covfefe to hamberders and now respeckered, it has been obvious for a while that the demented mango menace with his shit for brains hasn't been running on all cylinders. That hole upstairs appears to be getting deeper along with what's left of his deep fried circuits. Further proof of why today's malignant GOP wants to keep their MAGA base stupid and uneducated.
Never forget covfefe, one the originals!
Thanks for the heads up on my butchered spelling. There's probably a Trumpanese dictionary that's available somewhere.
I can't remember where he got it (for all I remember, I gave it to him for his birthday) but my dad had a book back in the day called "The Wit and Wisdom of Spiro T Agnew" -- all totally blank pages and not very many of them. He was quite amused by it and kept it on the coffee table -- which is also where his own dad would see it when he visited and be completely irritated at how disrespectful it was.
At least a Trumpanese dictionary wouldn't be totally blank... :) but to keep it on the coffee table, there would have to be NO PICTURES lol
I don't know about that, they aren't fond of literacy, or communication.
Lol
Yeah he probably makes sense to them.
The folks who like Trump live with crazy people who rant all the time. Imagine the speeches given in biker bars after a round of six packs, and Trump starts to sound articulate and well informed!
I think that’s probably an insult to bikers. At least, some of the ones I’ve known.
Yeah, I absolutely judge MAGAt asshats, but I've known more than a few bikers who are not only kind (they only look scary), but wise and progressive minded.
Why do they think they have to look scary ? They must like scaring people.
I know a guy who runs with a bike crew he’s 6’5” ,280lbs. Likes his facial hair ,hard not to look scary! He’s a Pediatrician ,the kiddos love ❤️ love him,think he’s a bear !🐻
He's what is known as a "RUB" Rich urban bikers. Many are dentists and such.
My mechanic looks really rough around the edges, lotsa tattoos, and swears all the time, spends all day Sunday riding. Don't bring your car in Friday morning because he quits at about noon because he's orthodox Jewish.
People have all sorts of varied reasons for their choice of outward appearance.
DUH
Especially the "bikers for Jesus" types. I have known a few. They love to say grace publically in restaurants to shock people.
HYPOCRIDIOTS 😁
Those are the stupid people I'm referring to. They're an embarrassment to our country... Ugh.🙄
They are an extreme danger to our country and to the world as well.
They do have the whole drug-addled, brain excuse.
Same!! I can’t even begin to fathom it as well. He’s gotten so much worse in the past 6 months alone, that it’s impossible to make sense of what he’s trying to say. He’s completely lost his ever loving mind.
And yet the mainstream media, even what's perceived as liberal media, keeps hammering on Joe Biden's mental fitness! It is absolutely maddening! I've gotten to the point where I just can't watch the news right now. I'm afraid I'll throw the remote at my TV and break it!
I agree. The media is seriously pissing me off. I like the saying going around which is, “yeah, they’re both old, but Trump is pure evil.” I’ll vote the sane choice, thank you
I have found myself literally screaming at my television! I'm choosing to read my news right now rather than watch the news. The talking heads have seriously pissed me off.🤬
Unfortunately, I frequently yell at my laptop screen, too, even when I've got video muted (with subtitles) or it's just an article I'm reading...
OMG! I live in Utah, so I find myself screaming, "FUCK YOU!" at the TV on a daily basis!
Agreed.😡😡🤬🤬😡
Yesterday, someone posted: "If your house is on fire and two elderly firefighters show up—one with a hose and the other with a can of gas—it’s not a hard decision who’s the man for the job."
Yeah the hubby looks at me: you do know the TV can’t talk back… I don’t care the TV is dumb and the newscaster is dumber than a box of rocks..🤭 yeah, I’m the person who talks and yells at the TV…
You have company!
I do that at my GPs office, he has Fox on, I have told him it jacks up everyone's blood pressure.
Is there in fact any liberal media left?
There are non-profit news papers and they are excellent. Texas Tribune, etc. But you have to look for them.
And/or exist behind paywalls. We are kneecapping ourselves on the daily.
I've never met a paywall on a non-profit newspaper.
No and I continually wonder how the fuck we got here.. oh yeah, The Orange Douche
I wonder if Rachel Maddow has a security team.
I sure hope so.
The Guardian, Al Jazeera, Mother Jones, the New republic, Pro Publica, (they gave us the Clarence Thomas investigations).
Thanks. I needed reminding. Did Wonkette fall off the list?
I do love them, but Robyn has some problems with fact checking, as in some of her stuff is easily fact checked to be false. Not much but certain subjects. Dok Zoom is awesome, and Evan is sublimely obscene. The "Vegan babby butthole" post is the funniest thing I have ever read in my life. There are a few lies that are so entrenched, like calling Tucker Carlson the Swanson heir. He is not, that was his stepmother (who adopted him), but her brother stole her trust fund, and bankrupted the company, which was then sold to General Foods which kept the name.
I love the satire and often it is just what the doctor ordered but if you go against some of the group-think/accepted narrative they'll sting you, in the comments.
I like The Young Turks on YouTube
I like some of them, Cenk's quite a misogynist. And naming your program after the Armenian Massacre (He is Turkish) is in extremely bad taste.
Do you really think Cenk is a misogynist? I've never noticed that, and I'm a woman. The name is awful--funny, Anna just said that the other day too.
Just here on substack.
I can totally relate and I damn near did whip my remote at the TV, but I walked out and waited for the "story" (I remember when I was a kid that they used to say you were telling stories if they thought you were lying) to end.
I broke it many many years ago, but now that we have internet and you tube I have learned that it's even worse.
Do like I did years ago when I got fed up with the “Donald Trump” show on every channel, get the AP breaking news, it’s free and it’s only facts. I have to watch special events but that’s all I can stomach. I was a Morning Joe die hard fan. Just can’t any longer. I would watch coverage of Trumps trial if they televise it but I won’t listen to a bunch of so called experts say the same things over and over.
Thanks for the recommendation 👍
I love the fact that Laura Trump might be ruling over the RNC. That's fabulous. Putting the fox in charge of the hen house will be the gift that keeps giving to Democrats. He will bleed them all dry. No money for anyone else. He is taking the whole GQP party will him to hell. There is plenty of time for him to burn it all to the ground before November.
And fuck those polls. They are all bullshit. Nothing but goddamn clickbait. Let's see, 1 in 5 believe Taylor Swift is a deep state conspiracy. Well, 4 in 5 don't. MSM drives the message of hate. It's profitable. American Oligarchs welcomed Russian dollars with open arms.. How many of those dollars flow through our media??

It's kind of sad, to spend all that money and go to a subpar surgeon. I have nothing against work done well, if the person does it for themself.
I saw that. Lovely family. 😉
That’s why I haven’t been a consumer of MSM for years. AP is all I need for just the facts mam.
Do we think that these ongoing public meltdowns by Trump was what was meant when Bannon called for his followers to ‘fill the zone with shit’ ? If so, boy is it working !
I didn't realize Bannon meant ACTUAL shit lol
Well Bannon himself is a shit elemental, so...
that is absolutely the best description of Bannon I've ever seen! 🤣
I think I saw him do a cameo in "Dogma", he was the shit-Golem of Golgotha. I would link it but it is too disgusting.
The excremental.
Don’t think there is any love involved…Just sayin’
Love of money?
I was responding to Laura Who who mentioned for the love of…. Trump only loves himself.
Oh I misread and thought he were referring to Lara.
It's truly jaw dropping. It takes me back to all the weird science fiction movies of the 50s and 60s it seems so poorly done and yet there they all are, sitting at his rant fests listening like he was their savior for sure.
Speaking of movies from that time period and also noting that some fictional works are becoming reality today, Invasion of the Body Snatchers seems to be a likely suspect with the Kult45 Krazy Klan. 🤨
I don't know; I'm sort of expecting The Blob. I wonder if freezing Trump with a fire extinguisher and sending him to the Arctic circle will give us a few years' peace.
LMAO! Who's willing to try and get past his Secret Service detail to test that theory? 😆
Maybe they (Secret Service) will catch wind of this and try it out for themselves just to get a break.
Could we drop him on the concrete when he's good and frozen. Don't they shatter when they're frozen through?
Omg yes!! Total invasion of the body snatchers. Trumps an alien!!
Wasn’t there one called “The Blob” too?
Yep -- had Steve McQueen in it -- scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. Pretty good special effects for a 1950s movie...
Go Donna!
I was thinking exactly of the Body Snatchers. It terrified me as a child and now here we are, living a version of that out now. That's exactly what it feels like. And I remember, some good people were turned into those feelingless things.
The way my husband explained it is when you have 8.1 BILLION humans on a planet, there is going to be a great percentage of cray-crays.
And Reagan closed the asylums so...
Yep, I remember when he did it. Penny-wise, pound foolish, as it turns out.
The dumbing down of America is reaching lift off.
Yes,I totally agree.This fidiot( my new word combining 2 known words lol) is who the Republican Party is choosing to represent the American people on the world’s stage! Give me a freaking break!
I invented HYPOCRIDIOT 😊
Love it!! Fidiot!
Jorden Klepper interviewed some of them on the revamped Daily Show. They really don’t know why they support Trump and apparently have never applied critical thinking to anything in their lives.
My genius IQ brother had a stutter as a kid and it's because his brain worked faster than his mouth could.
It’s complete word salad, and made up words at that. I cannot imagine how bad it’s going to get tomorrow after Judge Engoran announces his decision. But honestly, who among us would want to live in a country that isn’t repeckered (or respeckered)?
When you're co-dependent, you make up excuses
There used to be an expression way back "too much water in the soup." My late father-in-law told us about it. The reference was that the poor tried to stretch whatever food was available and the lack of nutrition caused problems like this.
me either wtaf?
Trump's attorney tried to talk over Judge Merchan and got slapped down. I don't think this judge is going to tolerate any acting out in his courtroom. Maybe we'll finally see Trump and his bozo lawyers held in contempt and booted from the trial.
Trump's attorneys have picked up his worst trait, rank rudeness and talking over everybody else when they don't want anyone to hear reason.
I loved the way the judge said to the attorney, as he was blathering, "so what's your legal argument at this point?". When he said that his non-stop moaning WAS his legal point, the judge disagreed, and said he'd see him on March 25! That's how you handle these shit-bags!
Bingo!!! 🎯
I was a paralegal for over thirty years, and I have never seen the level of sheer incompetence and buffoonery displayed by Trump's "lawyers". Even the worst people I worked for or dealt with knew better than to play games with a judge in open court. This is going to blow up in their faces, big time. How about stiff fines and a few days in jail for contempt? That includes Trump, who of course will not shut up in court or out of it.
As a former legal researcher (courts, firms and corporations) with 30+ years as well, I concur. The last thing you want to happen in court is getting bench slapped.
God damn, that is an image. Bench Slapped indeed!
"...bench slapped." Perfection!
YESSSS!! Not in the legal profession, but it’s so obvious that all of his lawyers are complete morons. I mean, who argues and insults a judge who has your life in his hands. Duh.
His attorneys are displaying their contempt for the rule of law. Time for the legal system to display its contempt for Trump and his pals.
Why do I think they are Federalist stooges graduated from Liberty U?
Trump University School of Law.
Bench slapped will work for me.. someone please 🙏🏽 gag the entire lot of them
Bench slapped isn't enough; even fines would not be enough. Jail time might put a stop to their bullshit.
Might. BuT iT mIgHt EmBoLdEn HiS bAsE so we have to let him do whatever he wants forever.
To hell with his base. We are still (barely) a nation of laws.
Well then let's see it happen!! Slap Donnie in a jail cell overnight for contempt, take away his phone, and watch his whole demeanor change. The government needs to grow a pair and stop this dangerous nonsense.
I just had an image of the Feral Hog in handcuffs being led away. Made my day.
I was a paralegal for 23 years - I couldn’t get over Habba’s disrespect for Judge Engoran. You don’t shit where you eat!
Amen!
She would be considered for disbarment.
However. Last slap by Kaplan's jury seems to have given him 83.3M reasons to stop bellying up to the line in defaming E. Jean Carroll. Big judgments WORK. He's hemorrhaging cash, can't grift enough quickly enough to pay his lawyers or his judgments, and his crown jewel (his "billionaire" status) has long since slipped away (caveat: my favorite consequence, because it's got to be occupying his last remaining brain cells every second of every day). I'm loving this slow-rolling train of daily gifts.
Love this!! I’m right there with ya
That's because Trump is convinced that is the way to win--everything in life. Be an obnoxious bully and intimidate everyone.
I know some other people like that. It seems to be a theme with inept people. Just think where Trump would be if he hadn't inherited all that money.
Dead, probably. He would have been unable to survive on his own.
Well, if he went out there poor but with his nasty vengeful self, he for sure would probably be dead.
I would guess that the orange blob expects his lawyers to behave that way, and would fire them if they didn't.
The old GISH GALLOP technique.
That is called the Gish-Gallop.
We can’t do anything about Demented Donnie but we can Boost Biden. What do you think it is going to take for Democrats to finally accept that Joe Biden is our nominee, and it is to our advantage to both support and broadcast daily Biden's accomplishments, thus damning the media narrative of Joe is Old? Four days ago an abc poll said 86% of Americans believe Joe Biden is too old to serve another term. In its most recent poll Biden held a lead over Trump 50 - 44 percent among registered voters according to Quinnipiac. The election poll this far out from November ‘is just another poll’. Yet, that 86% figure, close or not, is scary as hell. We must help crush this ageism narrative with facts of Bidens successes and gain the votes of as many Democrats and Independents as we can.
Agree 100%!! I’m not thrilled at Biden’s age, but the media is making him out to be a blithering idiot, while not even touching on Trumps obvious dementia. Seriously, who owns our media???
I wholeheartedly agree. I have found myself becoming really protective of President Biden because he's being attacked on all sides, even by the so-called liberal media. It absolutely INFURIATES me.🤬
He seems to continue to be the only nice aware grownup in the room.
Biden was asked by reporters what he was giving up for Lent. His reply was "You guys."
If you want to see the press core in full action, watch the daily white house briefing with Karine Jean-Pierre on youtube/Whitehouse channel. These people are vicious at times, rude always, repetitive questions that makes you wonder if they only hear their own words. Its a slithering snake pit and karine is Indiana Jones.
Zing! That's Irish humor.
I know. He’s still got it-that’s a quick and witty comeback. So simple and yet so reveling that he’s sick of all media
Mmmmmmostly right wing oligarchs?
👍
Rupert Murdoch and the Koch brothers?
Right-leaning owners. Right-leaning owners own our media. Can't call it mainstream any more as NYT, WaPo, et al have lost too much credibility to call what they do "journalism."
Billionaires like Musk, who don't want to pay any taxes.
Thank you for clear marching orders,”…support and broadcast daily Biden’s accomplishments, thus damning the media narrative of Joe is old?” People we can do this, failure is not an option.
Totally agree! He's our guy so let's get it! Biden 2024!
Hoyt: I wonder how much of that 86% would vote for Biden when the option is the opposite? I think it is possible to think that Biden is too old but also think of voting for him not only because of the alternative, but also because he’s an accomplished president.
Right! My understanding is that as we get closer to election day, more and more people will start paying attention and of course at some point we will finally have the two nominees for certain, lots of people on both sides think their opponent might not be the nominee, this keeps things confusing. Trumps trials and tribulations will take a toll and if nothing drastic happens, just as that recent Quinnipiac poll indicates, Biden can win. Polling with all its flaws has been moving toward Biden but there are some weird things happening like black men on board with trumps bravado and college students upset that Biden supports Israel, And as you know there are many many more issues that play into strategy of pushing Biden over 270 electoral votes which may require ten million more Biden votes than tRump to achieve that end goal, up from 8 million in 2020.
I’ll take old and wise over selfish demented spoiled brat as leader of the free world, which we still are, every time.
"You illiterate traffic cone" ... is anyone compiling these? 🤣 Seriously, it is a travesty that the "media" doesnt share LDFF's stumblings. Sure am happy you print out what he says cause listening to his sing-song whine is too much for me! The best part is Biden's answer to the press: "YOU GUYS!" Perfection! Finally, excited about the first trial. Going to be wild. 😂😂
Give 'em Hell, Joe!!🎇🎇
Good question, Susan. I'd pay real money to get a list of Jeff's imaginative insults. *IS* anyone compiling them?
Here’s a start. Jeff has probably added to this list by now.
“the thrice-indicted twice-impeached popular-vote-losing insurrection-leading serial-sexual-predating draft-dodging casino-bankrupting daughter-perving hush-money-paying real-estate-scamming ketchup-hurling justice-obstructing classified-war-plan-thieving weather-map-defacing paper-towel-flinging tax-cheating ex-wife-burying evidence-destroying charity-defrauding money-laundering fluorescent tangerine jackass spent all of Sunday melting straight the fuck down on his crappy app.”
By Jeff Tiedrich
I loved that too, laughed out loud.
You know I am doing the compilation 😉
Excellent Margot! 👍🏻
Jeff, I don't know how many hours of Dementia Don videos you have to watch to create the public service that is your column, but we are so appreciative! And you go the further step to write it out for us so that we don't have to listen too! Many, many thanks. We'll help pay for therapy.
Is there a Go Fund Me page? I'll donate.
No one deserves it more, for service to the country.
I volunteer for pro bono services!
If Donnie Dumpsterfire continues on his present trajectory, we can look forward to some epic meltdowns at the podium. He's sinking, and he's pulling the GOP under with him. Jennifer Rubin has a great column today, 4 signs he's losing his grip on the party. If he loses his NY state biz license, if he has to pay money he doesn't have, when no bank will lend to him, the meltdown will accelerate, and I will enjoy every bit of it.
I'm just wondering what the last straw will be, when the sheeple will desert him completely because he's just a third-rate carnival huckster in too much Maybelline... I kinda hope it's a Halloween surprise. :)
I don't think the sheeple will ever be able to quit him. He could shoot their MOTHERS int the middle of fifth avenue and if Fox News told them that it was a good thing, they'd believe it. If/When Trump goes down, they're gonna die mad about it.
They were certainly willing to let their moms die of Covid in order to keep the economy humming along and to not have to wear a mask! Horrors!
The idea of MAGAts dying with curses on their lips warms my little heart.
Jennifer Rubin is the best commenter WaPo has, and she was formerly a republican!
Hey Miss Ethereal: get a free subscription to my sub stack I'd love to have a chat with you via email!
I love Jeff's sign off: “I read the news today, oh boy.”
1. It reminds me of a great decade in music history;
2. It makes me hear John Lennon's voice in my head; and
3. It makes me so glad that Jeff is reading the news today, oh boy.
Noel Casler used to work for DJT on the stupid reality show he had, and reveals things on social media that he had first-hand knowledge of - like the fact that DJT has a prosthetic on the roof of his mouth, because he's snorted so much adderall that there's a hole in the roof of his mouth. According to Casler, that's why he keeps slurring his words and befuddling words, because the prosthetic slips (so he says things like "the united schtates of america"
Noel was also assigned the horrid task of cleaning up Shitler's soiled diapers. Oy!!!
He’s not in decline.. he’s a stable fucking genius.. that Fucktwatwhinyassedmotherfuckergriftingasshatofdumbassedness doesn’t know his right hand from his left. Of all the Presidents he’s the dumbest box of moldy bug infested cheerios in the cabinet. He had an IQ of 2 and he knows nothing of our government or what each chamber does. He has handlers who tell him what to do and say and they can’t control him. You want WWIII .. ?!? Then this is your guy. He will destroy everything in his path cause he’s a whiny assed man baby and if he doesn’t get his way he will BURN THE ENTIRE COUNTRY DOWN JUST OUT OF SPITE… cause that is what weak willed drama conspiracy theory wannabe self important misogynistic traitors do. They blame everyone but themselves. They do not take any responsibility of what they say or do. I cannot believe we have a huge faction of MAGaTs who support that POS PIG ( sorry piglets) who grabs women by the P*ssy and thinks that’s ok behavior. It sickens me that this is the guy Repuklicants want and treat him like the second coming of Christ. WTAF is wrong with these mentally deranged people who support a criminal to be placed in the highest office of our country?!!!?!!! Are you fucking kidding me??!! That fucktwat for brains should be imprisoned for life just for inciting a fucking mob in The Capitol!!! He does NOT get a pass!! FUCK DRUMPF 🖕🏽.. now let me tell you how I really feel😳
I'm concerned you're holding back.
Hehehe yeah me holding back.. I gotta tell my hubby that.. yup huge eye roll.. and he says I need to learn how to play nice.. my reply: have you met me??!!??🤣😂🤣
I’ve added calling him Slug Slime. By the way, try saying THAT 10 times fast.
I got Sublime after 10 times fast 🙄 so Slug Slime is Sublime🥰
"Have you met [Y]?" is one of my catchphrases haha.
You sound a bit miffed today.😄😄😄
Haha!
🤣😂🤣
A trifle perhaps.
What she said! 👏👏👏
Trump claims that the world laughs at America. If they did it is because of him. He is who the world laughs at.
Good thing Trump didn't go to public school or serve in the military. In either place he would have been a daily rumpled pile of FUBAR because of his thinking that he was so much smarter and better than everyone else.
Tomorrow is the day that his financial fraud guillotine is scheduled to fall. I sincerely hope that Trump Inc dissolves into the dumpster where it belongs. The good people of NYC hope as well also as they have had the scumbag in their faces for 77 years.
Respeckered by Venezuler. Lovely! The mad world of Emperor Shitstain. Bragg brings the first indictments and through the twists and turns and fuckery of the legal system, he gets the first crack at the shitgibbon. Game on!!
I hope Stormy takes the stand. I miss her!
I'm pretty sure that she's on the prosecution's witness list.
Agree
I hope Michael Cohen can come across as a credible witness— the defense attorney will come at him like a bull in a China shop…..
Cohen has the receipts.
Perfect! Let the trial begin!
I’m so excited!!! The first criminal trial starts March 25 and there’s not a fucking thing Diaper Donny can do to stop it!! It’s deeeeeelicious! It must have made what little is left of his tiny brain explode when he was told, no, your “presidential immunity” claim won’t work here because you weren’t president yet…idiot. Also delicious was how Marchan cut right through Trump’s lame ass excuse of “sorry, can’t be tried right now because I’m running for president to escape prison” by simply telling his attorney to sit down STFU.
Jeff, True the Vote came up with no evidence yesterday in court. 2000 Mules(asses) was a grift by a convicted felon, a felon pardoned by TFG.. Man, my MAGA friends are pissed this morning.. I love the smell of desperation in the am.🤠
Smells like...victory.
Ah, the endorphins are flowing, thanks to this irreverent morning hilarity! THANK YOU, Jeff!
I love the stress relieving witty pot shots at the idiot leader of a deplorable mob but once in awhile we should step aside and notice that Trump supporters identify with him going back to the first election of Barack Obama and the eruption of the Tea Party over that event. They don't care if he is insane, or a criminal, or both. They love the racism and everything that goes with that. They love him because they are just like him. I know we're not supposed to say it but Clinton was right about them. The same percentage of Americans support Trump as supported Lindberg, Father Coughlin, and the Nazi Party and before that Dixiecrats and the Confederacy. If anyone bothered to look I bet they are directly related, as in Close Family ties.
DEPLORABLES, I'll say it. If we continue to try and be "the nice guys," we are fucked. DEPLORABLES, DEPLORABLES, DEPLORABLES.
How about mean, petty, cruel, insecure fascist Deplorables? Now i understand how my great grandmother Oma felt about the Confederates.
Why aren't we supposed to say it? I mean Clinton was if, anything, an optimist about the size of the container.
It was an attempt at sarcasm referring to the time Clinton was raked over the coals for that accurate comment.
The funny thing is. I had a friend at the time (never knew she ws a right-winger) because it was in the before-times, and she embraced it, and said they took the label on. I said "Why would you identify with that? If that's not you and you aren't, you shrug and let it go because it doesn't apply to you." Wingers are weird.
Shhhhh 🤫, don’t tell anybody.
