There ya go. Finally, she verbalized every single thought I had in my head about Coulter and the other, just complete shitheads, who commented about the love and pride Gus has for his dad. Divergent or not, Gus is a well loved person who is comfortable with who he is. Too bad the waste of space republicans are not.
Yes...and his family is comfortable with him as well! That makes all the difference in the world in how Gus sees his world, I am sure. The American Family Values are on display right in the Walz family, if your heart is still open enough to recognize it!😍
While Walz's son Gus is called "neuro-divergent," as a long time teacher who taught hundreds of children, Gus is more common than you think. So, how divergent is he really? The truly divergent ones are the MAGAs. They have what is known as Oppositional Defiant Disorder and in some cases psychopathy. It is not only divergent, but of the type that is hard to treat and best dealt with by being in a locked up facility of some type.
I saw so many people tearing up at the convention because let's face it, it was moving! I teared up too. As a former classroom teacher, the bully says this shit, but when someone strong stands up to him the crowd can turn. Trump is going to be facing this. I liked the slap back at Donald Trump by D.L. Hughley
Inviting comedians is a great idea, because it is giving the convention the feeling of SNL. If we want the youth to vote making the convention educational and entertaining together is a great mix.
Anyone think that Coulter was born an XY? I've thought that for a long time and if so, maybe she has self loathing to the extreme that it's made her the hateful b**** that she is. She's always been like this - you aren't born with this much hate for people just because they don't agree with you. Something went wrong somewhere along the way. These comments brought tears to my eyes. How can you attack anyone who has disabilities that they have no control over, especially someone's child? I believe in karma and some of these rodent MAGAs will reap what they sow years down the line. For the first time since he came down that elevator, I felt normal again about this country this week. The constant chaos and negativity and fear about him slowly erodes your spirit. I won't let my guard down until she's sworn in on 1/20/25. Even if he loses, he will still create chaos.
It's her physical build, her face, her Adam's apple and her voice that made me wonder about her. Never could understand the huge chip on her shoulder that she seems to have.
I appreciate that, because my daughter is a middle school teacher, I'll just call young Mr Walz 'A happy young man, extremely proud of his amazing Dad'
Right on both counts. They turn their own issues outward and/or figure being hateful pieces of shit gives them cred, stature, and exposure, which they hope to parlay into moolah. Pathetic sell outs.
Fuck YES! I love her. She took the words right out of millions and millions of mouths! Let’s DRAG their bitch asses to hell. ALL of them. I’m so sick of their endless bottom that they never never find.
When I saw Ann Coulter's remark yesterday...I just called her a hollowed-out soul with nothing left to redeem her as a human being, and later I saw Elizabeth Booker Houston's Tik-Tok Takedown, and I stand in awe! Thank you Music Mama for posting it!
I think Dear Leader is already at the point that his "deterioration" can't be ignored any longer. It seems clear to me that the Republican party knows the race is over and that their orange-encrusted mental patient can't pull in the numbers any longer at his rallies or even on his TV "interviews". The Democratic party has finally found their voice -- no more "Mr. or Ms. Good Guys", that's for sure. The gloves are off and that orange thing in a badly fitting suit is going all the way DOWN!
More importantly, no more apologies for being decent human beings.
I just with there would be more direct language. “Woman’s right to choose” is so weak; “climate change” instead of global warming; “who you love” instead of gay equality. It all sounds so watered down and dig-whistle.
His supporters will do nothing. It's the independents and sane GOP that will vote for Harris if they think he's gone totally nuts. I've given up on the cult. They are just hopeless and lost.
They’ll manage to come up with some asshattery excuse for his sorry butt. Any group of fools that thinks that JFK, Jr. is still alive will believe any damn thing. The wilder the tale is, the better they’ll suck it up. I don’t know what kind of water they’ve all managed to drink but clearly, it’s infested them all with RFK, Jr’s brain worms.
Short of shucking off his clothes, and running down the street naked, I can't think what he could do to clue them in "they are so far out where the busses don't run."
Let’s all remember that now that Harris is the candidate. Trump is going to be sentenced in September putting it back into the daily news before the election. Also, Chutkan has to put forth her case again, citing in public the elements that a grand jury indicted DonOLD for and that will be in the daily news before the election. Again we are underestimating the power of women voters when we are furious - we are going to vote in enormous numbers. Young people are energized in a way that they weren’t watching two old men vying for power, they have something to believe in and to fight for now. Finally, we continue to underestimate the Democratic Party even though these predicted red waves never happened since the orange monster left office. It’s true that the Sociopathic asshole has his 30% lemming enablers but without appealing to more people that’s not enough to win the electoral college or this election.
Next hearing is September 16, two days before the scheduled sentencing. Judge Merchan will rule on the immunity issue then, and will or will not postpone the sentencing, but I don't expect to hear anything from him before then.
I'd like to see a legit medical evaluation about whether that was actually a bullet wound, but it's difficult to ascertain because of MAGA secrecy and the unreliable, unverified opinions in SM
That's his "look". Cheap, rumpled suit and a long, long red tie. He is such an evil clown. I hope he blows a vein with all his hate. It couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.
He’s broke-he only does outdoor rallies because he can’t pay for indoor facilities. He can’t even pay for professional make-up application any more. I wonder who’s applying his orange face. Perhaps Kimmy Guilfoyle?
His stock, which will still bring him something when he sells it (but less than he was counting on), is down to $22.44, from a high of $79.38. I've bookmarked the Yahoo! Finance page so I can check it from time to time and indulge in a little Schadenfreude.
That business about Gus made me soooo fucking mad. These are depraved people. NO ONE should ever attack a kid. Ann Coulter and Dinish will rot in hell...and who is Mike Crispi? His last name defines his brain. Asshole. I've never been so fired up to get these bastards back under their rocks. Adam Kinzinger gave ONE HELLUVA SPEECH, too! #TGIF Lets get to work!
I have trouble imagining a follower of TFG who is also truly trying to follow the path of Jesus. Hating others wasn’t a major part of his agenda. “Love your neighbor“ … yeah, that’s more Jesus’ stuff.
Crispi is a 31- year-old wet behind the ears douche bag GOP politician who has nothing better to do but attack kids with special needs. If this idiotic dipshit is supposedly part of the GOPs future, then it's obvious these heartless assholes haven't learned a damn thing.
It’s absolutely scary and appalling to me to see how many ppl are so cruel heartlessness and soulless…I don’t remember this kind of hateful behavior so visible in the past.. before trump that is, it’s like he opened the gate of Hell and demons were just vomited out
Dumpy has given people permission to say whatever cruel, ugly thing that pops into their minds. It used to be taboo to do that, but Dumpy unleashed them. I don't think MAGAts support him because of the border or anything else; it's because if they don't keep him in office they won't have permission to be cruel and ugly anymore.
The hate-filled have always been there, but we had the luxury of not knowing how many existed, and how rotten they are. Then djt essentially gave them permission to show themselves.
As disheartening as it is to see/hear them and to know that about 50% of the world's population is rotten -- many still wear a facade of reasonableness, such as "chief justice" john roberts -- we're better off seeing the world as it is. Knowing what they're capable of (J6; P2025; and many recent SC decisions, to name but a few examples) is the only way we can be alert and ready to push down / dismantle their dangerous plans.
Shithead Crispi got massacred by Twitter, along with me, for that disgusting post, so he deleted it saying that he didn’t have all the information. 🙄
And today, he is posting that Tim Walz abused his son at the DNC by pulling him away from a teleprompter. This guy is not only a mental case, but he was born evil like most MAGAts. 🤬
Respectfully noting that I think we're giving them a pass when we say that they were born evil; that makes their evilness something beyond their control, which therefore lets them off the hook re: changing for the better.
I strongly believe (having semi-studied to be a therapist) that most people who are rageful / destructive are thus because of how they were raised -- and that most people are capable of changing for the better, should they choose to put in the work. (Most choose not to, unfortunately.)
I was using it more as a figure of speech, but there are children who are born sociopathic. You can not fix a sociopath or a psychopath. I think that they are interchangeable now. I minored in psychology in college.
I know because I was married to one a long time ago and I got him to see a psychiatrist and psychologist and both said nothing can fix him. I divorced him.
He seems to be in the mold of those self-proclaimed alpha males who proudly show off their huge shortcomings in personality, which is basically small dick energy. It seems this type feels aggrieved that they aren't as successful with women as they think they should be, so they blame feminism, equality, wokeism, etc. How about not being a conceited chauvinist? That would make women like them more. Yep, dipshits one and all. My daughters would sooner kick guys like that in the 'nads then give 'em the time of day
Pls call or tweet @nytimes re Gus Walz. Demand that they use accurate words! Making fun of a child's neurodiversity or any disability ISN'T "partisan bickering" -- it's unacceptable, evil & cruel!
Oh, I was so pissed I wanted to put my foot all the way up her ass. A young man loves his father so much in the moment that it brings him to tears. And the heartless mf’s think it’s weird? Too bad they’ll never know the joy of loving and being loved. They can all fuck off, go to hell, and hopefully land in the same lake of fire that Rush Limbaugh and his ilk are currently calling home.
They’re experts in stopping ANY GOOD FEELING / MOMENTUM D’s experience. Noticed it when BHO announced the Osama catch. They marched all the GWB folks out there (media) SO fast saying ‘that was a continuation of OUR policies- we get credit!’ - it made your head spin… Never forgave them for that maneuver 😡
Meanwhile, the Dubya folk never highlight they didn't act on Clinton-admin intelligence about the likelihood of an attack on US soil.
Decent people understand that you can't take credit for good-thing-X without taking responsibility for the related bad-thing-Y -- but GOPs know little or nothing about decent behavior.
Hi Jeff, at 72 I’ve heard a number of speeches by candidates over the years. Madam President hit a home run last night, I can honestly say it was up there with President Kennedy acceptance speech, President Obama’s acceptance speech. Jeff, it was no nonsense, no hyperbole, no whining, no grievance, no doom and gloom. I may not agree with everything on Madam President’s agenda, but you have to totally stop, take account what our country faces at home and abroad…. She is the Commander in Chief that America needs at this moment… America is at a crossroads, Madame President is the one to take the lead based on hope and the promise of America. Best to all fellow travelers.
Sadly, I had to unfollow Ally Henry today. According to her and others like her, it wasn’t enough. Not enough about Gaza, not enough about giving Indigenous people their land back, on and on. I agree that America has a long way to go before we can say we’re truly living up to our promises. But it won’t happen all at once, and it sure as fuck won’t happen if the Orange Turd gets into office again.
Not to mention that if the Orange Fungus gets back in, he's gonna let Bibi turn Gaza into a parking lot, because they're about equal on the psychopath level.
What is wrong with these people who expect everything to be perfect? What about the alternative if that orange asshole gets in again? And how about working to save this country that is on the brink of disaster before we worry about anybody else? We have to be healthy and functional before we can help any other country.
They are probably a bit neurodivergent, to where they don't understand the big picture, and obsess on a single problem. It is a very complicated problem with much nuance which, not knowing the history, or how our gov't works (they seem to think the president waves a magic wand and can fix everything) never mind that the rep held house votes for funding the killing. We can't fix it until we control at least two of the three branches.
Michelle Obama warned about the Goldilocks Syndrome. If we expect everything to be “just right” we’ll never do anything.DNChad speakers who addressed just about every issue in some way.
The ongoing problem with these so-called 'progressives' is that they persistently allow the perfect to be the enemy of the good. They get so hung up on perfection that their ship will inevitably go down in flames as the band plays, 'But I Did the Right Thing.'
Sometimes, good enough actually gets the job done.
Even people on our side can be blinded by ideology to the point of not seeing the practical aspects. As you said, they need to realize Kamala offers them the chance to accomplish these things, whereas trump assuredly does not. Wake up, idealists.
Some progressives can get too impatient like Veruca Salt (I want it NOW) or can’t see the forest for the trees. It’s hard to watch when there are more pressing matters at hand, such as preserving our democracy.
Our house is on fire and this is no time to argue over who started it or which hose we should use first. We must reprioritize to put the damn fire out and then we can work on the details of rebuilding. Rebuilding won’t happen overnight and requires time and patience. Another win for donald will relegate this American experiment to the ash heap of history.
If you don't agree with some of her policies, you know that she's not going to be able to implement all of them anyway. There's this ugly part of our government called the House and the SC right now. Until we take over the House and fix the Court, everything she tries to do with be met with resistance.
exactly, that is why I dont let my guard down and relax...it is comforting to know Kamala is taking the lead at this point in time but it all doesn't start and end with her. There is a hella lot of resistance out there that is broken.
I watched all four days with my 21-year-old son, who'd never before been very interested in politics. He insisted on watching all of every day's speakers and was aghast at some of the powerful stories being shared. Being able to introduce him to such heroes as Shirley Chisholm, Tammy Duckworth, Ellissa Slotkin, and so many others, as well as informing him of such horrific events like the Exonerated Five and women having to cross state lines for basic healthcare, was perhaps the best part. He's ready and fired up to volunteer with our local Democratic Party!
The depth of understanding of the speakers at the DNC was almost breathtaking. What Kamala has inspired in others is amazing. Now, we have to follow her lead and do something.
Donald was obviously tag teaming because they forgot to use ALL CAPS in some of the rage tweets. I smell a rat that looks like Stephen Miller. Really surprised his head didn't explode. Partisan bickering? It's called good versus evil. Dinesh D'Souza should be one of the "mass deportation" people along with Elon Musk, Rupert Murdoch, Peter Thiel, Nick Adams, Juanita Broderick and Brigitte Gabriel. I'm so sick of horrible people, who can't feel love or pride. They wallow in self pity and victim-hood.Bring on the joy.
I have heard Donald cannot Read ! So how can he type words? Let alone at the speed of thought...he has to have some MAGA dirtbags doing it for him as he blurts things out
The NYT has lost its mind. Or more accurately it is actively working to put a traitor and pervert and mentally unfit human in the Oval Office. We are broken as a country. “Partisan bickering”?????????
Someone pointed out that Kamala's acceptance speech didn't contain a single joke at Dump's expense. She had plenty to rip into him about, but she was deadly serious and it showed.
I would hate to have EVER faced her as a prosecutor. Or, say, in a televised debate.
I will be out of the country that night. I'll have to make sure my family tapes the debate. I still won't be surprised if he finds a way to back out of it. She will crucify him. He'll lose his short temper and be really ugly.
The thing about that is he wasn't really stalking her, he was maneuvering to always remain on camera. He knew that when she was speaking, the camera would be on her, so he just moved around so that he'd be in the shot as well.
He learned how all that works from his time on The Apprentice.
It's really an old trick as well. And it's one of the reasons that most televised debates have the old lectern set. So that when the camera focuses on one candidate, the other(s) aren't also in shot.
She said exactly what I thought: “Donald Trump is an unserious man.” That is a brutal statement. She went with core values and shredded him without a flicker of silliness. Wiped the floor with his “nonsense.”
If he shows up for the debate she will flay him. The Senator who made a nascent supreme tremble… I think Donnie Dollhands’ handlers will keep him home that night.
JD wants to buy donuts..OK..he is facing a guy behind the. Counter..and introduces himself .." I am JD Vance and I am .." If JD had any clue with whom he is talking to ..a guy..probably underpaid selling unhealthy ,sugary baked goods ..If JD REALLY CARED about that guy..he should have asked the guy..." how much do you get paid in hourly wage...Just to get info on how average folks live..the HILLBILLY TYPE that he claims to understand &embrace...JD IS A RAT
That whole scene was so awkward. The more they try to make him do human stuff (have a dog on a leash! buy some doughnuts!) the worse it gets. I wonder if Peter Thiel is trying to get his money back.
This is the first time I think Ive disagreed with Jeff… I didnt see anything out of place at the donut shop. Really- what’s he’s supposed to ask “how much you make an hour?” what kind of ice breaker should he ask? “Ya’ll voting for me?”
sorry, this is a case of making a mountain
out of a mole hill. I’m not a fan of JD - but when you nitpick something like this
Years ago before she got into politics, I interviewed her a few times in her role as a bankruptcy expert. She was always patient, thorough, never rushed me off the phone (unlike other big time attorneys) and very kind in explaining things at a lay level. A wonderful person.
Anyone can wear an American Flag lapel pin. I have one. I think that they sell them at the gift shop at the Clinton Birthplace Home in Hope.
It is true that Chump is dissolving right before our very eyes. I will be 78 in 2029 and I will not be dissolving. The DNC was a celebration of Democracy, Freedom, and Joy. The Republicans and Chump are the only ones who have a problem with that.
Thanks. I wait for your column while doom-scrolling. Not much doom today. My dad was an elected official, and as a son and father I will confess, Gus made me cry. Happiness can do that.
that is an unretouched photo of Donny at a hate-rally yesterday, down at the bottom of the post. the guy is deteriorating right before our very eyes
Epic response to Ann Coulter by comedian Elizabeth Booker Houston:
https://x.com/TheRickWilson/status/1826734475524669605
There ya go. Finally, she verbalized every single thought I had in my head about Coulter and the other, just complete shitheads, who commented about the love and pride Gus has for his dad. Divergent or not, Gus is a well loved person who is comfortable with who he is. Too bad the waste of space republicans are not.
Yes...and his family is comfortable with him as well! That makes all the difference in the world in how Gus sees his world, I am sure. The American Family Values are on display right in the Walz family, if your heart is still open enough to recognize it!😍

The truly divergent ones are the MAGAs. They have what is known as Oppositional Defiant Disorder and in some cases psychopathy. It is not only divergent, but of the type that is hard to treat and best dealt with by being in a locked up facility of some type.
I thought Gus behaved like a (ok stay with me here-) “NORMAL” person would in that situation on a National stage.
Yeah! If my dad were on that stage speaking as the candidate for Vice President, I’d be bawling too.
*bows in your general direction for this insight*
TY Ethereal✨
Someone noted that Gwen didn’t pull him back or obstruct him in any way. 💕
So - maybe ‘normal’ then? 😏
I saw so many people tearing up at the convention because let's face it, it was moving! I teared up too.

Thank you for sharing. D. L. Said it like it is !
💯💯💯
They’re the worst kind of air pollution.
That was epic! Thank you for the link!
I needed to see that. Thank you!
You’re welcome, but Music Mama deserves the credit for posting.
😂😂
🔥🔥🔥
Love it
I will be watching this multiple times.
Me too. 3 times just now!
I can’t stop looping it
I let the link. The better to share it with 👍.
That should read, I copied the link. It’s been another long day.
Look her up on TikTok, she’s great 😊
For the record he’s not disabled but that takedown was epic. Coulter is an unhappy 🤬
On VP Harris, her description of Trump as “unserious “ was also epic.
Anyone think that Coulter was born an XY? I've thought that for a long time and if so, maybe she has self loathing to the extreme that it's made her the hateful b**** that she is. She's always been like this - you aren't born with this much hate for people just because they don't agree with you. Something went wrong somewhere along the way.

Deborah I agree about Coulter—she has an Adam’s apple which is extremely rare in females too.
It's her physical build, her face, her Adam's apple and her voice that made me wonder about her. Never could understand the huge chip on her shoulder that she seems to have.
My thoughts exactly. Thank you.
He's neurodivergent. That can fall under the umbrella of disability.
As an educator, we do place neurodivergent students under “disabled”. This ensures added protection under the ADA.
I appreciate that, because my daughter is a middle school teacher, I'll just call young Mr Walz 'A happy young man, extremely proud of his amazing Dad'
With a lot of the MAGAs and right-wingers,it's some just 'broken inside' I believe,and some schtick for profit,either way,they suck.
Right on both counts. They turn their own issues outward and/or figure being hateful pieces of shit gives them cred, stature, and exposure, which they hope to parlay into moolah. Pathetic sell outs.
Nailed it.
Kinda hope Walz sees that!!! 🥰
I’m certain he did…
Dragged, roasted, and put in the trash, where she belongs!
OMG! Absolute perfection here! THANK YOU for sharing this! 😂😂😂😂
Ann Coulter is a slunt and I can’t stand her - or Laura Ingraham. Two slunts in a pod.
Slunt. That is perfect! Thanks you! 🤣
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😈
that made my day, thank you!!
Yes yes yes yes! Thank you for saying what we're all thinking. Her message goes to all y'all MAGA pieces of shit.
That’s terrific! 😂
Fuck YES! I love her. She took the words right out of millions and millions of mouths! Let’s DRAG their bitch asses to hell. ALL of them. I’m so sick of their endless bottom that they never never find.
In-fucking-credible! Elizabeth, I love you!
When I saw Ann Coulter's remark yesterday...I just called her a hollowed-out soul with nothing left to redeem her as a human being, and later I saw Elizabeth Booker Houston's Tik-Tok Takedown, and I stand in awe! Thank you Music Mama for posting it!
That was amazing!
Love her!
I LOVE IT!!
I am here for every minute of it. And may he take the whole toxic Party down with him.
The Kamala Phenomala!
Kamala-mentum...catch it!
Still hoping he deteriorates more and more before elections, to the point that cannot be ignored by his supporters anymore…
I think Dear Leader is already at the point that his "deterioration" can't be ignored any longer. It seems clear to me that the Republican party knows the race is over and that their orange-encrusted mental patient can't pull in the numbers any longer at his rallies or even on his TV "interviews". The Democratic party has finally found their voice -- no more "Mr. or Ms. Good Guys", that's for sure. The gloves are off and that orange thing in a badly fitting suit is going all the way DOWN!
That picture gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "tan lines"
Here's one of his weird-assed whatever they call it on his crappy app that was posted on Shitter...he still thinks he's running against Joe! 🤣
https://x.com/AshaRangappa_/status/1826814789584363722
Yep, Dear Leader is like a scratch in an old record -- he keeps skipping back to his good old "Biden days" when he felt superior and sure to win.
Crazier than a rat in a cesspool!🐀💩
He always had that kind of feral cunning, but even that seems gone.
Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio, our nation turns its lonely eyes to you...
Love that sentiment Jennifer, Sla’inte!
More importantly, no more apologies for being decent human beings.
I just with there would be more direct language. “Woman’s right to choose” is so weak; “climate change” instead of global warming; “who you love” instead of gay equality. It all sounds so watered down and dig-whistle.
Well, I was group watching with Jessica Valenti fans & we were all holding our breath waiting for it; & she DID say it, she said ABORTION.
His supporters will do nothing. It's the independents and sane GOP that will vote for Harris if they think he's gone totally nuts. I've given up on the cult. They are just hopeless and lost.
I’m still waiting for his cerebral aneurysm to pop - and the DNC might be enough to do it.
They’ll manage to come up with some asshattery excuse for his sorry butt. Any group of fools that thinks that JFK, Jr. is still alive will believe any damn thing. The wilder the tale is, the better they’ll suck it up. I don’t know what kind of water they’ve all managed to drink but clearly, it’s infested them all with RFK, Jr’s brain worms.
And lead.
Short of shucking off his clothes, and running down the street naked, I can't think what he could do to clue them in "they are so far out where the busses don't run."
He’s melting.
Let’s all remember that now that Harris is the candidate. Trump is going to be sentenced in September putting it back into the daily news before the election.

No complacency
Everybody vote!
Has a ruling been made yet about postponing his sentencing until after the election? I believe that request has been made by the felon.
Next hearing is September 16, two days before the scheduled sentencing. Judge Merchan will rule on the immunity issue then, and will or will not postpone the sentencing, but I don't expect to hear anything from him before then.
Nice
like Maria Bartiromos face.
Literally, from the look of that pic 🕯️
His right ear looks remarkabley intact.
I'd like to see a legit medical evaluation about whether that was actually a bullet wound, but it's difficult to ascertain because of MAGA secrecy and the unreliable, unverified opinions in SM
Face starting to look like a catcher’s mitt much?…
MAGA campaign can't pay their bill for the spackle?
Needs moar linseed oil.
Is it just me or is he wearing a cheap, ill fitting suit! I thought he was a billionaire 😂.
That's his "look". Cheap, rumpled suit and a long, long red tie. He is such an evil clown. I hope he blows a vein with all his hate. It couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.
He thinks the tie hides his gut. Even the girdle doesn’t help.
Long ties are phallic compensators
Not soon enough!
He’s broke-he only does outdoor rallies because he can’t pay for indoor facilities. He can’t even pay for professional make-up application any more. I wonder who’s applying his orange face. Perhaps Kimmy Guilfoyle?
His stock, which will still bring him something when he sells it (but less than he was counting on), is down to $22.44, from a high of $79.38. I've bookmarked the Yahoo! Finance page so I can check it from time to time and indulge in a little Schadenfreude.
https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/DJT/
The Gargoyle is looking like a pink floyd cartoon character from "the Wall" herself
Many people have said he’s doing his makeup & hair all by himself these days.
Can’t deteriorate/decompose fast enough for me!
Holy hell. His rot is showing on the outside.
Indeed, malodorous rotting protoplasm!
He’s all blotchy. He’s fading away.Buh-bye Donnie Darko, time for him to hippity -hop away!
He's got some serious Ozempic face going.
I guess Donny got tired of the “orange man” comments
Can’t happen fast enough
Dumpy looks like he's got vilitiligo.
Good point, probably from wearing all that spackle for so many years.
That business about Gus made me soooo fucking mad. These are depraved people. NO ONE should ever attack a kid. Ann Coulter and Dinish will rot in hell...and who is Mike Crispi? His last name defines his brain. Asshole. I've never been so fired up to get these bastards back under their rocks. Adam Kinzinger gave ONE HELLUVA SPEECH, too! #TGIF Lets get to work!
They’re so very “Christian”, aren’t they?
I call them hypochristians
Good one!
Gotta start using that. Apologies in advance for plagiarism.
Crotch Christians, Christofacists, Y'all Qada, The Talibama, there are quite a few names for them.
Right. It's a damned cult... hateful people who have no good reason to be that way...other than they were told to be hateful. Primitive people.
I prefer KKKristians. 💙

Sadly they are a majority of those who call themselves so. The actual followers of the J-dude are the minority.
I have trouble imagining a follower of TFG who is also truly trying to follow the path of Jesus. Hating others wasn’t a major part of his agenda. “Love your neighbor“ … yeah, that’s more Jesus’ stuff.
Crispi is a 31- year-old wet behind the ears douche bag GOP politician who has nothing better to do but attack kids with special needs. If this idiotic dipshit is supposedly part of the GOPs future, then it's obvious these heartless assholes haven't learned a damn thing.
It’s absolutely scary and appalling to me to see how many ppl are so cruel heartlessness and soulless…I don’t remember this kind of hateful behavior so visible in the past.. before trump that is, it’s like he opened the gate of Hell and demons were just vomited out
tRUMP made it okay for the mean, angry, underachieving, assholes to speak openly about their hatred.
🎯🎯🎯
Dumpy has given people permission to say whatever cruel, ugly thing that pops into their minds. It used to be taboo to do that, but Dumpy unleashed them. I don't think MAGAts support him because of the border or anything else; it's because if they don't keep him in office they won't have permission to be cruel and ugly anymore.
The hate-filled have always been there, but we had the luxury of not knowing how many existed, and how rotten they are. Then djt essentially gave them permission to show themselves.
As disheartening as it is to see/hear them and to know that about 50% of the world's population is rotten -- many still wear a facade of reasonableness, such as "chief justice" john roberts -- we're better off seeing the world as it is. Knowing what they're capable of (J6; P2025; and many recent SC decisions, to name but a few examples) is the only way we can be alert and ready to push down / dismantle their dangerous plans.

It started with Newt Gingrich and his contract ON America...
Cerberus must have taken a break!
A dog has to eat, especially a three headed one!
He has!
Shithead Crispi got massacred by Twitter, along with me, for that disgusting post, so he deleted it saying that he didn’t have all the information. 🙄
And today, he is posting that Tim Walz abused his son at the DNC by pulling him away from a teleprompter. This guy is not only a mental case, but he was born evil like most MAGAts. 🤬
Who the hell is he??? Never heard of him and hope to never hear from him again!
A poster boy for Republican small dick energy, apparently
Some angry incel, no doubt.
Respectfully noting that I think we're giving them a pass when we say that they were born evil; that makes their evilness something beyond their control, which therefore lets them off the hook re: changing for the better.
I strongly believe (having semi-studied to be a therapist) that most people who are rageful / destructive are thus because of how they were raised -- and that most people are capable of changing for the better, should they choose to put in the work. (Most choose not to, unfortunately.)
I was using it more as a figure of speech, but there are children who are born sociopathic. You can not fix a sociopath or a psychopath. I think that they are interchangeable now. I minored in psychology in college.
I know because I was married to one a long time ago and I got him to see a psychiatrist and psychologist and both said nothing can fix him. I divorced him.
I think you're both right. Many may be able to improve if they: a) admit they have a problem, and b) fully commit to changing. Those are big ifs.
And there are some who are irredeemable, either because they cannot do a) and b) or because they are incapable of change.
🎯
He seems to be in the mold of those self-proclaimed alpha males who proudly show off their huge shortcomings in personality, which is basically small dick energy. It seems this type feels aggrieved that they aren't as successful with women as they think they should be, so they blame feminism, equality, wokeism, etc. How about not being a conceited chauvinist? That would make women like them more. Yep, dipshits one and all. My daughters would sooner kick guys like that in the 'nads then give 'em the time of day
Sounds like you did a great job raising them! Would that more raised strong daughters.
Yes! Kinzinger was great!
Pls call or tweet @nytimes re Gus Walz. Demand that they use accurate words! Making fun of a child's neurodiversity or any disability ISN'T "partisan bickering" -- it's unacceptable, evil & cruel!
🎯They suck so badly.
Oh, I was so pissed I wanted to put my foot all the way up her ass. A young man loves his father so much in the moment that it brings him to tears. And the heartless mf’s think it’s weird? Too bad they’ll never know the joy of loving and being loved. They can all fuck off, go to hell, and hopefully land in the same lake of fire that Rush Limbaugh and his ilk are currently calling home.
Haha. I hope Rush has a permanent boner from all that Viagra and he can't get no satisfaction
The thought of Rush Limbaugh having sex is not great visually.
That's what those poor Dominican rent-boys said.
Haha. Sorry
I hope he is getting spit roasted by a satan I don't even believe in.
Dinesh is on the list to be sent to GITMO...& Crispi ....well his name .....
They’re experts in stopping ANY GOOD FEELING / MOMENTUM D’s experience. Noticed it when BHO announced the Osama catch. They marched all the GWB folks out there (media) SO fast saying ‘that was a continuation of OUR policies- we get credit!’ - it made your head spin… Never forgave them for that maneuver 😡
Meanwhile, the Dubya folk never highlight they didn't act on Clinton-admin intelligence about the likelihood of an attack on US soil.
Decent people understand that you can't take credit for good-thing-X without taking responsibility for the related bad-thing-Y -- but GOPs know little or nothing about decent behavior.
I am not a violent man; but Ann Coulter is one person if i ever met her would get
bitch slapped by me. I hate that fecal sack of dung.😖🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😖
Wear gloves
Dinesh D'Asshole.
Also D'nesh D'felon.
If I hear any of that bullshit in person, somebody is getting their ass stomped!!😡😡

Hi Jeff, at 72 I’ve heard a number of speeches by candidates over the years. Madam President hit a home run last night, I can honestly say it was up there with President Kennedy acceptance speech, President Obama’s acceptance speech. Jeff, it was no nonsense, no hyperbole, no whining, no grievance, no doom and gloom. I may not agree with everything on Madam President’s agenda, but you have to totally stop, take account what our country faces at home and abroad…. She is the Commander in Chief that America needs at this moment… America is at a crossroads, Madame President is the one to take the lead based on hope and the promise of America. Best to all fellow travelers.
I hope a majority of voters see the situation as clearly as you do
Sadly, I had to unfollow Ally Henry today. According to her and others like her, it wasn’t enough. Not enough about Gaza, not enough about giving Indigenous people their land back, on and on. I agree that America has a long way to go before we can say we’re truly living up to our promises. But it won’t happen all at once, and it sure as fuck won’t happen if the Orange Turd gets into office again.
Not to mention that if the Orange Fungus gets back in, he's gonna let Bibi turn Gaza into a parking lot, because they're about equal on the psychopath level.
Trump has eyes on building beachfront hotels in Gaza
Jared is measuring for curtains on the beachfront properties.
What is wrong with these people who expect everything to be perfect? What about the alternative if that orange asshole gets in again? And how about working to save this country that is on the brink of disaster before we worry about anybody else? We have to be healthy and functional before we can help any other country.
They are probably a bit neurodivergent, to where they don't understand the big picture, and obsess on a single problem. It is a very complicated problem with much nuance which, not knowing the history, or how our gov't works (they seem to think the president waves a magic wand and can fix everything) never mind that the rep held house votes for funding the killing. We can't fix it until we control at least two of the three branches.
Totally agree.
Michelle Obama warned about the Goldilocks Syndrome. If we expect everything to be “just right” we’ll never do anything.DNChad speakers who addressed just about every issue in some way.
Too many people making Perfect the enemy of Good.
The ongoing problem with these so-called 'progressives' is that they persistently allow the perfect to be the enemy of the good. They get so hung up on perfection that their ship will inevitably go down in flames as the band plays, 'But I Did the Right Thing.'
Sometimes, good enough actually gets the job done.
You got that right it takes time to fix anything.
Even people on our side can be blinded by ideology to the point of not seeing the practical aspects. As you said, they need to realize Kamala offers them the chance to accomplish these things, whereas trump assuredly does not. Wake up, idealists.
Some progressives can get too impatient like Veruca Salt (I want it NOW) or can’t see the forest for the trees. It’s hard to watch when there are more pressing matters at hand, such as preserving our democracy.
Our house is on fire and this is no time to argue over who started it or which hose we should use first. We must reprioritize to put the damn fire out and then we can work on the details of rebuilding. Rebuilding won’t happen overnight and requires time and patience. Another win for donald will relegate this American experiment to the ash heap of history.
If you don't agree with some of her policies, you know that she's not going to be able to implement all of them anyway. There's this ugly part of our government called the House and the SC right now. Until we take over the House and fix the Court, everything she tries to do with be met with resistance.
exactly, that is why I dont let my guard down and relax...it is comforting to know Kamala is taking the lead at this point in time but it all doesn't start and end with her. There is a hella lot of resistance out there that is broken.
🎯Yes and it took them decades to get there, it won't get undone in one term, for sure.
Similar to Barack Obama lot of resistance there. But we keep on working .
Just like Moscow Mitch stated when BHO was first elected:” we will not work with this president.” Fuck him and his minions.
I watched all four days with my 21-year-old son, who'd never before been very interested in politics. He insisted on watching all of every day's speakers and was aghast at some of the powerful stories being shared. Being able to introduce him to such heroes as Shirley Chisholm, Tammy Duckworth, Ellissa Slotkin, and so many others, as well as informing him of such horrific events like the Exonerated Five and women having to cross state lines for basic healthcare, was perhaps the best part. He's ready and fired up to volunteer with our local Democratic Party!
So much in the fairly recent past!!! 🇺🇸
Her speech was one of the best political speeches I've ever heard. Hands down.
Agree. She out-Presidentialled Presidential.
The depth of understanding of the speakers at the DNC was almost breathtaking. What Kamala has inspired in others is amazing. Now, we have to follow her lead and do something.
The brave ones who told their stories, historic and not easy is my guess.
Fantastic speech, no question; but I still want AOC delivering another speech- she lit it ON FIRE🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Sure, AOC was good, but nowhere near Harris. And this post is about Madam Vice President.
Donald was obviously tag teaming because they forgot to use ALL CAPS in some of the rage tweets. I smell a rat that looks like Stephen Miller. Really surprised his head didn't explode. Partisan bickering? It's called good versus evil. Dinesh D'Souza should be one of the "mass deportation" people along with Elon Musk, Rupert Murdoch, Peter Thiel, Nick Adams, Juanita Broderick and Brigitte Gabriel. I'm so sick of horrible people, who can't feel love or pride. They wallow in self pity and victim-hood.Bring on the joy.
I was thinking that too--there's no way he could be typing that fast without tons of typos, random caps, and misspellings.
I have heard Donald cannot Read ! So how can he type words? Let alone at the speed of thought...he has to have some MAGA dirtbags doing it for him as he blurts things out
He might use voice typing for his own screeds
that's the most likely answer !
Possible, or a typist on a laptop
Walt Mauta? The pool guy?
Yes, I'm sure DJT had to occasionally SWALLOw some of his cheeseburgers so turned it over to someone else.
Anita - You comment is very unfair to rats...and also a bit redundant!! :)
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎯👍
WE ARE NOT GOING BACK
The NYT has lost its mind. Or more accurately it is actively working to put a traitor and pervert and mentally unfit human in the Oval Office. We are broken as a country. “Partisan bickering”?????????
How soon will the Times and the WaPo endorse Trump?
They already have because they're providing Trump with in-kind donations.
oh make me puke!😵💫🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
They both have gone full on right wing.
Someone pointed out that Kamala's acceptance speech didn't contain a single joke at Dump's expense. She had plenty to rip into him about, but she was deadly serious and it showed.
I would hate to have EVER faced her as a prosecutor. Or, say, in a televised debate.
I can’t wait to watch her surgically disembowel Drumpf in their debate. It will be glorious!
I will be out of the country that night. I'll have to make sure my family tapes the debate. I still won't be surprised if he finds a way to back out of it. She will crucify him. He'll lose his short temper and be really ugly.
I hope someone will stop him from stalking her like he did to Hilary. F*#k**g pig that he is.
The thing about that is he wasn't really stalking her, he was maneuvering to always remain on camera. He knew that when she was speaking, the camera would be on her, so he just moved around so that he'd be in the shot as well.
He learned how all that works from his time on The Apprentice.
It's really an old trick as well. And it's one of the reasons that most televised debates have the old lectern set. So that when the camera focuses on one candidate, the other(s) aren't also in shot.
She’ll kick him in his diaper pants!
Yeah, wonder if they have the "no walking around, no audience and cutoff mics
Yes, she will eviscerate him.
She said exactly what I thought: “Donald Trump is an unserious man.” That is a brutal statement. She went with core values and shredded him without a flicker of silliness. Wiped the floor with his “nonsense.”
If he shows up for the debate she will flay him. The Senator who made a nascent supreme tremble… I think Donnie Dollhands’ handlers will keep him home that night.
Yeah, I think the chances of him actually showing up are, at this point, about as likely as Beyonce showing up at the *Republican* convention.
Watch her make Jeff Sessions "nervous!"
Stumbled over an X post today -- maga is Big Mad that Kamala didn't ever mention "the alleged assassination attempt"
Those fox hosts giving rambling incoherent trash the unceremonious hook was priceless. Thanks for the clip.
JD wants to buy donuts..OK..he is facing a guy behind the. Counter..and introduces himself .." I am JD Vance and I am .." If JD had any clue with whom he is talking to ..a guy..probably underpaid selling unhealthy ,sugary baked goods ..If JD REALLY CARED about that guy..he should have asked the guy..." how much do you get paid in hourly wage...Just to get info on how average folks live..the HILLBILLY TYPE that he claims to understand &embrace...JD IS A RAT
I call Vance Hillbilly Himmler.
😁👏👏
That whole scene was so awkward. The more they try to make him do human stuff (have a dog on a leash! buy some doughnuts!) the worse it gets. I wonder if Peter Thiel is trying to get his money back.
asking how long they've worked there is condescending and doesn't strike as a good vibe in my opinion...it's kind of a cold, unfriendly ice breaker.
This is the first time I think Ive disagreed with Jeff… I didnt see anything out of place at the donut shop. Really- what’s he’s supposed to ask “how much you make an hour?” what kind of ice breaker should he ask? “Ya’ll voting for me?”
sorry, this is a case of making a mountain
out of a mole hill. I’m not a fan of JD - but when you nitpick something like this
it seems its just filler.
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯 And JD should have left a BIG TIP
Elizabeth Warren Thurs night "I wouldn't trust these guys to move my couch!". 😯😯💥💥
Years ago before she got into politics, I interviewed her a few times in her role as a bankruptcy expert. She was always patient, thorough, never rushed me off the phone (unlike other big time attorneys) and very kind in explaining things at a lay level. A wonderful person.
“The country just shifted from reverse back into gear again”. - M. Mable
I'm sure you're seen this elsewhere, but just in case:
As with a car, choose D to go forward and R to go backwards.
I first heard that from Obama, although that's not a guarantee that he originated the line.
Haha! Simple really 👏👏👏🇺🇸
Anyone can wear an American Flag lapel pin. I have one. I think that they sell them at the gift shop at the Clinton Birthplace Home in Hope.
It is true that Chump is dissolving right before our very eyes. I will be 78 in 2029 and I will not be dissolving. The DNC was a celebration of Democracy, Freedom, and Joy. The Republicans and Chump are the only ones who have a problem with that.
I’ve heard he’s been ‘melting down’ for SEVEN STRAIGHT YEARS… I’ll believe it when I finally see it.
300 lbs of lard takes a while to melt.

Mindy…. yo crazy!
Thanks. I wait for your column while doom-scrolling. Not much doom today. My dad was an elected official, and as a son and father I will confess, Gus made me cry. Happiness can do that.
We need to just "Do it" and I will be phone banking this morning. I have my postcards all addressed ready to be sent, also.
