The cruelty has never been MORE the point than right now. It's their whole raison d'être. I am fully convinced that every single person in this administration is a legit sociopath.
As I understand it, it's part of or a common synonym for antisocial personality disorder, which is detailed in the DSM. According to my reading, the lines between that and psychopathy are blurred, but psychopathy is characterized by delusions. But IANAP.
Sure it is. We use it all the time. A "conduct disorder" describes younger people with those traits. In adulthood we call it "sociopathy." Sociopaths are intelligent plotters; often good-looking people; manipulative, without a sense of guilt, without empathy for others. Transactional, as it benefits them, and with no thought as to whom it might injure.
“…the rest of us — the people he’s supposed to be governing —…”
Jeff, I love you with every fiber BUT even you need correcting sometimes. Fuckface The First wants us to recognize him as our BOSS / KING, and we are mere peons / his subjects.
NO! He is there to SERVE the people, but what he chooses to serve up alternates between a bowl of gruel for his voters, an empty plate for the hungry, and a pile of steaming shit for our children and grandchildren to struggle mightily to clean up someday
I think that we can reasonably conclude that anyone who becomes extremely rich and powerful, is very likely a sociopath. It's a prequalification for the position. Sociopaths are generally troublesome to others, but not dangerous.
Problem is, that tRump is also a psychopath, and thus seeks that quality in all of his appointments, which makes them all dangerous.
I agree that they are, and when people have argued that I am saying they are mentally ill and I cannot say that, I have provided lists of diagnostic criteria that should support this point. It is a government of the meanies voted in by the meanies, and allowed to get into power by the sideliners.
While I am not really for Obama as a neoliberal, since I am more for Social Democrats like Mamdani, AOC, and Sanders, I would still say Obama '28.
Donnie may not be literate enough to have read the book, or have the attention to sit and watch the movie. But those of us who have, know it doesn’t end well for Jay Gatsby.
And the rich were happy to use Gatsby for his parties, to liven up their bored, vapid, lives. They were users of anyone who was not them. Social parasites. They never accepted him though, which is a definite parallel to the Marmalade Madman. who spends money on useless things, liked a guilded ballroom that no one needs, or wants, to gain entrance to a society that views him as a vulgarian. Only the crass, famewhores accept him because they are just like him.
I wish the people who still support their “King on Earth”……….will do us a favor, please watch “The Great Gatsby” you will realize then, how obnoxious the Gatsby Party trump threw was on the night SNAP died!
This may be what you voted for…….if you are a sadist……….but the vast majority of Americans want Democracy and a peaceful life!
I guess many Americans are also ignorant of what followed the excesses and carelessness of the period F Scott Fitzgerald wrote about in The Great Gatsby. Next up on the party themes, Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck.
That’s right! It’s a bummer for partiers, and some of them would lose their millions and billions or the coattails they are riding, as well as the shirts on their backs, but the burnt cork makeup will still work! It’s also the color of dust.
That grimace of a "smile" must be from his stroke. He has to try very hard to lift the right side of his face because when he is looking tired, it is turned down again.
Stroking out but not enough. C'mon clot! In fairness, his "smile" has always been a grimace because he doesn't feel it. He shows his teeth and thinks that's close enough.
Why should he? He's been a miserable brat his entire life. Nothing has ever been enough, and it never will be. He keeps expecting the next shiny object will be the magical thing that finally fills him, and yet they always, always, disappoint.
His current focus being his construction project. While watching the above videos I kept imagining one of his next parties being held in the new King Donald Elite Society Ballroom. If it were a movie (his whole life is a movie with him as the *Star*), while they're all basking in their despicable delusions of self-important Greatness, something really yuge drops out of the sky directly onto that garish monstrosity full of monsters. Crashing glass, multiple explosions bursting into flames. Screaming and trampling over each other only to find not enough exits. No sprinkler system because Donny always cheaps out. Divine Justice!
Plus he just redecorated the Lincoln bathroom with lots of gold doodads. The guy has absolutely zero taste. Everything he touches ends up looking like Liberace's house.
It needs to be said over and over that trump is NOT doing any of these things. He is so mentally incompetent that we are being governed by the likes of Miller, Vought, Vance, and who knows who else. They just occasionally wind trump up and push him out in public and cross their fingers he doesn't look too deep in the dementia. Trump started this mess but he is not in charge anymore.
Robin — so glad you posted this. It’s an important point and leads to my conclusion that Trump’s death will not stop the Project 2025–Republicans will vote for no one but a Republican, even if it’s incompetent Vance.
He realizes it is an excuse to divorce her in the fundamentalist viewpoint. He wants Erika Kirk's money, and empire that she just inherited, he knows he will never be President by election, anyway, unless Spanky dies in office. So maybe wants out from under Peter Thiel, Vance's jaw has got to be sore from all the ass-kissing he performs.
And it would seem that there must be a small army of such handlers. Miller and Vought are calling the shots when it comes to ICE Barbie, Blondi, Kegstand, Rubio, and so on, but who's behind the curtain, directing all THEIR moves? 'Cause for sure, someone else is pulling the strings.
It's probably tech bros and billionaires who hide in the shadows. Could be Murdochs and Kochs, plus others who've gamed out various scenarios, but I don't think we'll ever find out. I mean, until recently, who knew that Epstein was a player on the global financial stage? We just collectively knew he was a pedophile and sex trafficker.
There is only Charles Koch left, (He is in his 90's) David died of cancer, and the other brothers were pushed out long ago. So I call them the Koch machine. Unfortunately, the U-Line office supply guy, Adolph Coors company guy, and so many others are standing in line to fill his place.
I hope you are wrong…..even if they will not criticize the PoS in the White House……..vance is a bomb…..he was project 2025’s choice for president to take over when trump drops dead, I guess, since
he is already nuts enough to be replaced!
Hopefully, they all go out along with the GOP who are as fascist as trump!
Prosecution this time…..no traitors in our Governing Body!
Then Kegstand and Miller must be leading the charge to invade Venezuela and force regime change. Trump is also threatening to send troops into Nigeria to rescue "persecuted Christians." This has Kegstand's stank all over it.
Even if Trump were still in full possession of his faculties it wouldn't matter. Project 2025 was never Trump's personal agenda. The only part he cares about is the part where the President gets to do whatever he wants. Starting with when he first claimed to be a Christian he's pandered to the Christian Nationalist/White Supremacist movement in order to establish a solid base. They kiss his ass, and they can do whatever they want.
Not so sure he really should get credit for starting this mess. The Federalist Society hi-jacking of the Supreme Court was essentially a done deal if any Republican had won in 2016. He simply took advantage of the existing Republican infrastructure and they were more than happy to use him as a scapegoat. The Big Beautiful Bull is a good example. It's a Republican wet-dream but thanks to Trump taking credit they get to pretend it was all his fault.
trump knows he owes them bigtime for rigging/stealing the election and keeping him from going to prison. And they can easily take him out if he doesn't comply 100%.
I'm hoping that when trump dies the magats just sort of fade away because trump's "charisma" will no longer be holding them together. I've never understood why anyone can't see trump for what he is. Grifter, con man, incompetent, etc, but the magats are in his sway and see something. I don't think Vance or Donnie Jr. will be able to hold them and it will all collapse.
That’s what I’ve always thought. Trump is their golden calf. Once he melts down, all they have left is a gold plated puddle. No one has the same idiotic cruel appeal that the morons in this country find entertaining.
Perhaps it's hatred. Trump opens that hatred door every time he opens his mouth, which is every single day/night. He has spewen hatred since his first term as president and has prompted his hatefilled base to do the same. What his base doesn't get is he hates them too, but he loves the donations and them buying the stupid crap he sells. Hopefully one of these days they'll get a clue. He's been a conman/grifter all his life, as were his parents, who taught him the art of conman/grifting. The nut doesn't fall far from the tree. The only good Trumps are Mary, her dad and their side of the family.
“burnt cork make-up”..I’ve been curious about that shade….hmmmmm….wonder what brand it is? lol. I agree with everything you wrote Jeff-he probably never read The Great Fatsby, I mean Gatsby…or saw the movie. Thankful for Obama and other dems speaking the truth LOUDLY! Continue hanging in there everyone…VOTE and PROTEST when you can!❤️❤️
I want him to stick around a little longer so J.D. and Erikkka Kkkirkkk can hook up and then more low hanging fruit of maga will fall off the tree. He needs to be royally detested when rump bites it.
Why, in the name of all that’s sane and rational, does he wear makeup? The only 80 year old men who wear makeup are drag queens, correct? I don’t get it. He golfs constantly, he should be tan!
Actually, his scalp is getting very pink and the part is wider. As for his neckgina, it is still waiting for his tiny chin mushroom to grow, but the twain shall never meet. So Sad 😞
I read an article several months ago and evidently his makeup person quit because orangeman didn't pay her. So he applies his own makeup now and it definitely shows. He applies his makeup like he runs, oops, ruins our country. On the other hand, he's actually making himself look like a orange crazed clown, which is exactly what he is.
My sincere apologies to the real clowns who make us laugh with happiness.
Professional movie critic here. "The Great Gatsby" has been filmed several times: in 1949 with Alan Ladd, in 1974 with Robert Redford, and in 2013 with Leonardo DiCaprio. There's also a 2000 TV movie with Toby Stephens.
They are being brainwashed by the Republican propaganda channel. The Democrats have nothing to fight it. Propaganda is sophisticated and is more than just lying. Actually Jeff tells it like it is but in a funny and entertaining way. That's how you get people to listen.
Never in my 78 years did I think I could see more cruelty than I am right now and it makes me ill. The Gatsby party was a slap in our face. The era of Gatsby was rich, selfish ,cruel asswipes who lived in their own bubble . Kids might not eat next week, more families are being torn to shreds,children terrified to trick and treat . Our so called leader has dementia and all is minions are getting rich and ignore it . We have Gestapo Proud boys running unchecked who never had a background check or finger prints taken . What kind of a man who love to run around terrorizing citizens :GESTAPO PROUD BOYS that’s who. When are we going to make AMERICA great again . The American I love 💔💔💔💔💔💔
He may be truly ignorant and truly stupid and well into dementia, but he does know cruelty. This party and the bathroom renovation and the East wing demo are a giant middle finger to all of us. I was going to say it is hard to believe he filled the room with costumed revelers, but on second thought it's not. It's easy to believe. He's made cruelty "OK again" ..
One of the pictures of that horrid bathroom reno stopped me cold: a chandelier was chosen as the light fixture. A chandelier in a bathroom... like all things Donnie it speaks to the bottomless and profound stupidity that is his essence.
It does speak to that. He's a simpleton [among his many many other defects]. donnie thinks all the swell people and all the kings and dictators of the world have gold chandeliers everywhere. His taste is informed entirely by his envy of those he sees as all-powerful. "I'm one of them if I have a chandelier in my bathroom!" If this was happening on another planet it would be fascinating. But it's here so it is tragic and grotesque and we are all collateral damage.
Came for the Hegseth nut-basher clip, but was disappointed. 😀
In eighth grade (many decades ago) we read Catcher in the Rye, The Diary of Anne Frank, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby, Grapes of Wrath, Antigone, The Crucible, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and other works which opened my eyes.
You are a lucky soul. Students today are lucky to read even one of those stellar works. And not in 8th grade, by any means. Gotta protect those delicate snowflakes who might learn how to think for themselves if we open their world up to great literature. 🤬😡💔🇺🇸
The thing is MTG's constituents desperately need medicaid and food assistance. But they love Trump. She has a tightrope to walk. Side with Trump and his cuts means she loses her seat because her voters are sick and starving. Or demand services for her state all the while telling her people the king Trump loves them.
Obama also said that under Trump and the Republicans, every day is like Halloween but all tricks and no treats.
Ignorance has taken over America. Trump is just their poster boy. 100 years ago the Republicans killed America and Democrats had to bring it back around and were able to keep it alive for nearly 50 years. I have been here since Truman and the Republicans have been trying to run America into the ground all of my life.
I really think that Trump is going to retreat to the bunker under the former East Wing and start a nuclear war. Hopefully the bunker will be his tomb.
On their behalf, I resent the insult to lapdogs. Our shih tzu is intelligent and loving, and the pug we had years ago was wicked smart. The people at Fuckwit's party? Not in the least.
The cruelty has never been MORE the point than right now. It's their whole raison d'être. I am fully convinced that every single person in this administration is a legit sociopath.
The cruelty is *ALWAYS* the point with them, with incompetence and hypocrisy as a "bonus"
Fuuuuuuck. That is so spot on. Shittiest bonus ever! 😡🤬💔🇺🇸
Alison, I like to make a small correction…they are legit psychopaths.
I believe Alison is correct with her terminology. These people are not deluded; they're simply 100% vicious and utterly without remorse.
Potāto potâto! 🙏🏾
Different characteristics.
How about “all of the above “
Sociopathy is not a term in psychology
As I understand it, it's part of or a common synonym for antisocial personality disorder, which is detailed in the DSM. According to my reading, the lines between that and psychopathy are blurred, but psychopathy is characterized by delusions. But IANAP.
Sure it is. We use it all the time. A "conduct disorder" describes younger people with those traits. In adulthood we call it "sociopathy."

100%
I think you're correct, although there is quite a bit of overlap
https://www.simplypsychology.org/psychopathy-vs-sociopathy.html
Quite a bit of neck-flap, too.

ill douché has also apparently not learned that Hitler's Thousand-Year Reich lasted only 12 years. We're getting close.
Thank you for that reminder. History repeats itself. Sometimes that works to our advantage.
THIS.

WAKE UP
I guess many Americans are also ignorant of what followed the excesses and carelessness of the period F Scott Fitzgerald wrote about in The Great Gatsby. Next up on the party themes, Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck.
OMG! Don't give them any ideas.
But the people in The Grapes of Wrath are not rich and pretty. Poverty is so depressing!
That’s right! It’s a bummer for partiers, and some of them would lose their millions and billions or the coattails they are riding, as well as the shirts on their backs, but the burnt cork makeup will still work! It’s also the color of dust.
Yeah!!!!
I'd wear an Obama 28 hat.
That would be one of the best nationwide trolls EVER!
How about Obama '28 rallies?
So would I and I live in 🇨🇦.
💯 percent
Ditto, and I don't even WEAR hats.
They're already on Amazon....along with shirts and hoodies and coffee cups and and....
I am boycotting Bezos but glad to see this.
I have plain hats and permanent markers!

Wow that's a lot of code.
That grimace of a "smile" must be from his stroke. He has to try very hard to lift the right side of his face because when he is looking tired, it is turned down again.
I think you're right
Stroking out but not enough. C'mon clot! In fairness, his "smile" has always been a grimace because he doesn't feel it. He shows his teeth and thinks that's close enough.
So true. He can only summon a grimace when needed. I doubt that he has ever genuinely smiled in his whole life.
Why should he? He's been a miserable brat his entire life. Nothing has ever been enough, and it never will be. He keeps expecting the next shiny object will be the magical thing that finally fills him, and yet they always, always, disappoint.
His current focus being his construction project. While watching the above videos I kept imagining one of his next parties being held in the new King Donald Elite Society Ballroom. If it were a movie (his whole life is a movie with him as the *Star*), while they're all basking in their despicable delusions of self-important Greatness, something really yuge drops out of the sky directly onto that garish monstrosity full of monsters. Crashing glass, multiple explosions bursting into flames. Screaming and trampling over each other only to find not enough exits. No sprinkler system because Donny always cheaps out. Divine Justice!
Plus he just redecorated the Lincoln bathroom with lots of gold doodads. The guy has absolutely zero taste. Everything he touches ends up looking like Liberace's house.
An empty vessel, Paula. Which can never be filled.
Likely correct. The only thing which gives him pleasure is when others suffer misfortune… which he is delivering daily.
He only smiles when watching " Crush "
videos. Spike heels stabbing baby chicks.
He is the epitome of a truly joyless individual.
He lives for Schadenfreud. It is the reason for his very existence.
Just like I am hanging on til he drops dead, good Lord willing. I want to see , and hear the 🎉 Celebration 🍾!!!
He’d better hurry up because I want to dance in the street one more time while I still can !
I just realized we have never heard him laugh. He snorts derisively, like the sociopath he is, but he doesn't ever LAUGH.
He. Doesn’t. Feel. It. JFC. You could not be more right. 😡🤬
Probably botoxed it.
Dump trump wide gleaming smile next to his brainless fan girls is most LIKELY photoshopped from photos ten years ago!
They all look like portraits of Dorian Gray. Grotesque ghouls masquerading as humans.
It needs to be said over and over that trump is NOT doing any of these things. He is so mentally incompetent that we are being governed by the likes of Miller, Vought, Vance, and who knows who else. They just occasionally wind trump up and push him out in public and cross their fingers he doesn't look too deep in the dementia. Trump started this mess but he is not in charge anymore.
Robin — so glad you posted this. It’s an important point and leads to my conclusion that Trump’s death will not stop the Project 2025–Republicans will vote for no one but a Republican, even if it’s incompetent Vance.
It will be interesting to see how they react when he dumps his non-Christian, brown wife for a corn-fed hustler.
I am also waiting for that...he just figured out he can't be a racist and have a brown wife.
Not sure how true, but read this morning that VP wants his missus to change her religion to Christianity!
He realizes it is an excuse to divorce her in the fundamentalist viewpoint. He wants Erika Kirk's money, and empire that she just inherited, he knows he will never be President by election, anyway, unless Spanky dies in office. So maybe wants out from under Peter Thiel, Vance's jaw has got to be sore from all the ass-kissing he performs.
Peter Thiel prefers blowjobs to ass licking I’m sure.
I was trying to be polite! But I agree. He gives gay men a bad name, and I have known so many I adore. He is the woman-hating kind.
Why not both?
It's true.
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/jd-vance-defends-wife-usha-convert-christianity/story?id=127068182
Iʻm thinking that Charlie Kirkʻs widow perhaps has visions of being a First Lady.
100 % CORRECT !
Yes! Waiting……then we all will barge into Jeff’s house for a party!
He’ll be applauded, Arne.
That's just too sad.
J. Divan is entirely incompetent, but his handlers (Thiel et. al.) are most assuredly very savvy and effective. That's why they put him in place.
Yes! These people behind the scenes are propping these idiots up!
And it would seem that there must be a small army of such handlers. Miller and Vought are calling the shots when it comes to ICE Barbie, Blondi, Kegstand, Rubio, and so on, but who's behind the curtain, directing all THEIR moves? 'Cause for sure, someone else is pulling the strings.
Yes! Could it be the people behind Project 2025 and the billionaire supporters such as the Koch brothers? A great thought! Thank you.
It's probably tech bros and billionaires who hide in the shadows. Could be Murdochs and Kochs, plus others who've gamed out various scenarios, but I don't think we'll ever find out.

And why are all these underlings - Miller,Rubio, Kegstand ICE Barbie et al now living on military bases?
Better than a bunker ?
Really ?
I hope you are wrong…..even if they will not criticize the PoS in the White House……..vance is a bomb…..he was project 2025’s choice for president to take over when trump drops dead, I guess, since
he is already nuts enough to be replaced!
Hopefully, they all go out along with the GOP who are as fascist as trump!
Prosecution this time…..no traitors in our Governing Body!
Gotta disagree, none of the ghouls-in-waiting have anywhere near the evil charisma of Trumpenstein.
Then Kegstand and Miller must be leading the charge to invade Venezuela and force regime change. Trump is also threatening to send troops into Nigeria to rescue "persecuted Christians." This has Kegstand's stank all over it.
Itʻs all about OIL.
Somehow it always about the oil isn't it!
"You dance with who (Paid) brought you."
It’s about oil and war causing a state of emergency so elections will be called off.
Exactly. 🎯🎯🎯
Even if Trump were still in full possession of his faculties it wouldn't matter. Project 2025 was never Trump's personal agenda. The only part he cares about is the part where the President gets to do whatever he wants.

It's a Republican wet-dream but thanks to Trump taking credit they get to pretend it was all his fault.
I agree he is their useful idiot. They had and have a plan, and we don't. So if Trump can run for a third term, let's make Obama our candidate
Hope and Change has a nice ring to it!
Yes it does.....I know Obama would run to save our country
trump knows he owes them bigtime for rigging/stealing the election and keeping him from going to prison. And they can easily take him out if he doesn't comply 100%.
I'm hoping that when trump dies the magats just sort of fade away because trump's "charisma" will no longer be holding them together. I've never understood why anyone can't see trump for what he is.

That’s what I’ve always thought. Trump is their golden calf. Once he melts down, all they have left is a gold plated puddle. No one has the same idiotic cruel appeal that the morons in this country find entertaining.
From The Apprentice myth to the birther crap about the first Black president, he had them hook, line and sinker.
Perhaps it's hatred. Trump opens that hatred door every time he opens his mouth, which is every single day/night. He has spewen hatred since his first term as president and has prompted his hatefilled base to do the same. What his base doesn't get is he hates them too, but he loves the donations and them buying the stupid crap he sells. Hopefully one of these days they'll get a clue.

Exactly. They are running the show, and he is the puppet; they pull the strings.
Keep thinking of the movie Doctor Strangelove. Saw it on tcm. So many similarities.
Absolute fucking ghouls. They all look like shit!!!!
With apologies to actual shit
You're right. Shit can serve a purpose, such as fertilizer for gardening.
Their shit comes out like Round Up. Kills everything it falls on.
😄👍🏼 That’s correct! Don’t insult shit by comparing it to them!!
They are so damn freaky looking. Jesus!
Welcome to Palm Beach, land of the rich, discontent, and faces full of fillers.
“burnt cork make-up”..I’ve been curious about that shade….hmmmmm….wonder what brand it is? lol. I agree with everything you wrote Jeff-he probably never read The Great Fatsby, I mean Gatsby…or saw the movie. Thankful for Obama and other dems speaking the truth LOUDLY! Continue hanging in there everyone…VOTE and PROTEST when you can!❤️❤️
His lips look blue. Lack of oxygen. Closer to the grave - hopefully😈
Lord, hear our prayer.
Amen 🙏
RAMEN 🍜
Graciously hear our prayer.
I want him to stick around a little longer so J.D. and Erikkka Kkkirkkk can hook up and then more low hanging fruit of maga will fall off the tree. He needs to be royally detested when rump bites it.
Did you see JD saying Usha needs to stop being an icky Hindu and convert? https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/11/01/jd-vance-usha-christianity-conversion/87033409007/
It will absolve him of the divorce in the eyes of the Fundies. Then he can marry 'good xtian' woman Erika (I'm now worth millions) Kirk
She appears to be a very happy widow. Didn’t take long.
Transparency from a complete douchebag abusive spouse. He's making sure maga is listening.
Yes absolutely!!
I think vance has accomplished irrelevance very well without any help from anyone!
Someday we will all find out why Charlie Kirk was murdered, and things might not go so well for the lady in leather pants!
Exactly what I was thinking.
The tide is turning but we need to get as woke as possible!👍🏼
His make up artist does a great job in showing who he really is.
I seem to recall reading that Donny insists on doing his own makeup
Why, in the name of all that’s sane and rational, does he wear makeup? The only 80 year old men who wear makeup are drag queens, correct? I don’t get it. He golfs constantly, he should be tan!
Normal people who play golf don't spend 99% of their time sitting in the golf cart.
And hair!
I bet he has hair plugs.
OMG. No wonder he looks like that.
Actually, his scalp is getting very pink and the part is wider. As for his neckgina, it is still waiting for his tiny chin mushroom to grow, but the twain shall never meet. So Sad 😞
His makeup artist must have trained in a morgue, gussying up cadavers.
I think you're on to something.
Doesn’t he do his own makeup?
He doo doos his make up.
Yup !
I read an article several months ago and evidently his makeup person quit because orangeman didn't pay her. So he applies his own makeup now and it definitely shows. He applies his makeup like he runs, oops, ruins our country. On the other hand, he's actually making himself look like a orange crazed clown, which is exactly what he is.
My sincere apologies to the real clowns who make us laugh with happiness.
My sister has a great fear of clowns, the psychological term escapes me at the moment.
I really hate 🤡
Of course he didnt pay her. He is known for stiffing people. I guess everyone should be honored to work for him and thats payment enough.
Professional movie critic here. "The Great Gatsby" has been filmed several times: in 1949 with Alan Ladd, in 1974 with Robert Redford, and in 2013 with Leonardo DiCaprio. There's also a 2000 TV movie with Toby Stephens.
I read the book years ago. And the ending is always the same. Gatsby dies in the end of every of every one of those films.
Which one do you prefer?
I suppose the Redford one, but not a very strong preference.
His “ makeup “ looks more like rust to me.
"his burnt-cork makeup ends well before his hairline. his neckgina looks like it’s about to give birth." NO ONE does this better. 😂😂😂
The constant lying is wearing me out. Surely, at some point, his cult will realize their hunger is real and they cant afford a sandwich. FFS.
No, they will blame Biden or Hilary or Obama or Lincoln or someone else. The list is endless.
They are being brainwashed by the Republican propaganda channel. The Democrats have nothing to fight it. Propaganda is sophisticated and is more than just lying. Actually Jeff tells it like it is but in a funny and entertaining way. That's how you get people to listen.
They still blame Hillary for shit she wasn't even in charge of!
Its relentless.
Hunter’s laptop.
Hunters lap serpent. 😉
😅😅
🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
You’re right…damn, what a cult this is. 😭
For. Fucks. Sake. That really says it all. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Never in my 78 years did I think I could see more cruelty than I am right now and it makes me ill. The Gatsby party was a slap in our face. The era of Gatsby was rich, selfish ,cruel asswipes who lived in their own bubble . Kids might not eat next week, more families are being torn to shreds,children terrified to trick and treat . Our so called leader has dementia and all is minions are getting rich and ignore it . We have Gestapo Proud boys running unchecked who never had a background check or finger prints taken . What kind of a man who love to run around terrorizing citizens :GESTAPO PROUD BOYS that’s who. When are we going to make AMERICA great again . The American I love 💔💔💔💔💔💔
He may be truly ignorant and truly stupid and well into dementia, but he does know cruelty. This party and the bathroom renovation and the East wing demo are a giant middle finger to all of us. I was going to say it is hard to believe he filled the room with costumed revelers, but on second thought it's not. It's easy to believe. He's made cruelty "OK again" ..
One of the pictures of that horrid bathroom reno stopped me cold: a chandelier was chosen as the light fixture. A chandelier in a bathroom... like all things Donnie it speaks to the bottomless and profound stupidity that is his essence.
It does speak to that. He's a simpleton [among his many many other defects]. donnie thinks all the swell people and all the kings and dictators of the world have gold chandeliers everywhere. His taste is informed entirely by his envy of those he sees as all-powerful. "I'm one of them if I have a chandelier in my bathroom!" If this was happening on another planet it would be fascinating. But it's here so it is tragic and grotesque and we are all collateral damage.
It is a style, it is called "Dictator Chic."
Dictator chic…perfect description. 👍🏼
It reminded me of a casino bathroom
“Bottomless and profound stupidity” is such a perfect description. If a writer is looking for a title of his biography, that is perfection. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Came for the Hegseth nut-basher clip, but was disappointed. 😀
In eighth grade (many decades ago) we read Catcher in the Rye, The Diary of Anne Frank, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Great Gatsby, Grapes of Wrath, Antigone, The Crucible, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, and other works which opened my eyes.
Grapes of Wrath would be perfect now!
Trap that list in amber :/
I think all those books are illegal in FL now.
My Barnes and Noble has a sign over a large collection of reading material at the front door. BANNED BOOKS !
Yes!!!!
You are a lucky soul. Students today are lucky to read even one of those stellar works. And not in 8th grade, by any means. Gotta protect those delicate snowflakes who might learn how to think for themselves if we open their world up to great literature. 🤬😡💔🇺🇸
I also read a shit ton of SHAKESPEARE .
Now they teach to the test, and the test doesn't include any of these great books...
The dead are eating the the dead
🚨 New from Wendy The Druid: Marjorie Taylor Greene's wake-up call in the circus of politics! 🎪 Dive into the chaos:

…and she will dive right back to this dictator after elections!
Exactly
The thing is MTG's constituents desperately need medicaid and food assistance. But they love Trump. She has a tightrope to walk. Side with Trump and his cuts means she loses her seat because her voters are sick and starving. Or demand services for her state all the while telling her people the king Trump loves them.
🎯🎯🎯
The Great Fatsby really is the perfect symbol. Decadence dressed as destiny. A man mistaking applause for absolution while the hungry count pennies.
This isn’t politics anymore. It’s a moral autopsy.
“A man mistaking applause for absolution,” is brilliant. His whole friggin life. In one phrase. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Obama also said that under Trump and the Republicans, every day is like Halloween but all tricks and no treats.
Ignorance has taken over America. Trump is just their poster boy. 100 years ago the Republicans killed America and Democrats had to bring it back around and were able to keep it alive for nearly 50 years. I have been here since Truman and the Republicans have been trying to run America into the ground all of my life.
I really think that Trump is going to retreat to the bunker under the former East Wing and start a nuclear war. Hopefully the bunker will be his tomb.
Hitler also had a bunker. . .
Well done Jeff. Captured the sick greedy spirit of this whole ruinous crowd of lap dogs.
On their behalf, I resent the insult to lapdogs. Our shih tzu is intelligent and loving, and the pug we had years ago was wicked smart. The people at Fuckwit's party? Not in the least.
And no doubt your doggie is smarter than a fifth grader , or rump!
My sincere apologies! I had a rescue Corgi - no lapdog!😊🐶
