IOIYAR it’s okay if you are Republican. You can stick a middle finger at the Constitution, monetize the Presidency, promise things you can’t possibly deliver, and even lie to your own voters and take money out of their pockets. On some level they know he’s doing it to them, and they obediently come back for more. I used to think they have low standards, but now I realize they have no standards whatsoever and have even wear that like a badge of honor
MAGAs are somehow proud of their ignorance and lack of mental agility. Between Reagan's economic policies and Bush Jr via John Silber crippling Dept. of Ed, have managed to give non-surgical frontal lobotomies to an entire political class. There's a sci-fi story titled, "The Marching Morons." Guess what, its no-longer fiction, and we're in the future compared to the publishing date of the story.
While probably playing his ass trombone. Whether it's the leaders of the world or people
in the same room, that endless stench coming from both ends can only be tolerated for so long. His desire to get back to DC early sure as hell had nothing to do with calling Gov. Walz. Dump could give two shits about anyone or another tragedy committed by another one of his many fucked up supporters.
At least with Trump there, a lot of the people in the room speak French and can talk about Trump in front of him without him having a clue. Do you think he had any translators there just in case. I suppose Japan's leader might not speak French, but I am betting Macron and Meloni are conversing in French.
Biden had his own trusted translators with him. Trump apparently has people he trusts, but they are not trustworthy. They are all using him for their own power and grift. More are auditioning by being singularly awful. What is going to happen to these ICE agents once we get rid of this fascist?
The evil Musk and Peter Thiel get money from PayPal since they started it. We were discussing hitting more of Musk's businesses, and that is one we could all boycott.
I quit PeePal years ago, and amazingly enough my life has ticked right along for the last 15 years. PeePal can lick all the zeros in all the other ways I pay, especially when it’s cash.
Yay Sooz! I had PayPal for a hot second. A first purchase caused a problem and I did not like they way they handled it and now it is out. They have been sending me information to an email that I will at one point get rid of. The PayPal Mafia is the worst. Zev Shalev has done a series that includes them in his The New Feudalism. https://www.narativ.org/s/the-new-feudalism
My daughter went through middle and high school understanding that no way was I going to buy her something if PayPal was the only way to pay. It is why I don't subscribe to my local paper in Germany, but I have been complaining to them about needing to use PayPal to get a subscription. I have not had the time to go there and complain in person, but I will do that at some point. Right now my energies go for different things.
Jeff, you could write a 10,000 word essay and I'd read it. Gotta admit, "Squeaky McTanktread" made me laugh out loud. And apparently, from what I've observed so far, no-one in the Dumpf administration knows what anyone else is doing, and most of them don't even know what THEY'RE doing from moment to moment.
Dumpf seems to have the attention span of a gnat, or he's simply not being informed of what his own press "secretary" is telling the world about why he's leaving the G7.
🤣🤣🤣 Ms. Spouse, as always, is both correct and amazing. And so was this column, Jeff. Pure gold from beginning to end. The GIF of Macron and Meloni alone was worth the price of admission.
Nonsense, it read like a breeze. I was told once by an editor that editing my article only made it longer--my feeling is that it was like a nicely packed in watch and that once they took the cover off and started tinkering, the springs flew every which way. One of the reasons I retired...but what I mean is that this piece has a lot of space in it because you didn't have to boil down Emperor Stupid's pronouncements and just got a lot of the hideo-comedy of his Canadian trip in there, with photos illustrating the awfulness of it all.
I know, right? Jeff is the only writer who keeps me sane during this horrible national nightmare. I'm so afraid that Kegsbreath is going to start throwing nukes. These people are insane.
Rumor has it (maybe I started it, who knows?) that Orange is blaming Kegbreath for the dismal showing on June 14th. Poor attendance, poor formations by the troops (malicious compliance?) etc. Maybe the Secretary of DUI will finally be forced to resign. Or at least have his paws slapped.
"let’s give the irrepressible scamp half a gold star. good boy, Donny!" 😂😂
I wish Mark Carney could be our guy. He's tremendous. Insiders have said the felons team is in panic mode and I believe it. They also said the felon indeed does have an odor. And its beyond obvious he's mentally losing it.
I want Vance to get off the couch and get ready to take over...because maybe the cult will begin to dissolve without their dear leader.
Damn, America. Get your shit together. Beyond embarrassing.
The Dems should be shouting the truth from every platform: "The President is morally and mentally defective. He lives in an upside down world where wrong is right. Cruelty to children is a virtue. Criminal fraud is to be ignored. The good guys are bad and the bad guys (who pay bribes) are pardoned. Bribery and high crimes. Impeach. Convict. Remove. Prosecute."
We have to be careful about what we wish for. I agree that trump should be impeached and thrown out of office, but would Vance be any better for us? I have very mixed feelings about that. Even if we could also get rid of Vance, we’d end up with Mike Johnson taking over! If it were after a blue wave midterm I wouldn’t want a President Hakeem Jeffries either. Now a President Jasmine Crockett I could get behind!
Yep, the orange cult would likely evaporate. But....perhaps that wouldn’t matter, given Thiel's capacity to purchase power. Not as great as Muck's, but still considerable. And doubtless Muck would see the advantage of joining with Thiel. All the ones who are bought now would stay bought, and Thiel and Vought would be ingenious about wielding even more behind-the-scenes influence with Lardo out of the way. JD would not only obey, he'd be falling all over himself to carry out their wishes. If the cultists saw JD still hating the same people they hate, they might not adore him, but chances are they wouldn't oppose him. And orange voters are only about one-third of the population, anyway.
Maybe you are right Denise… but Vance does not have imbeciles, incompetents and loyal sycophants who will slavishly follow. Maybe the Oli-Money from his Silicon Valley underwriters will buoy Vance through his next phase…. But he is not The Donald. He doesn’t have Goebbels-Miller. He has two left feet, communications-wise. He can’t learn to be engaging. His wife has worked mightily on his makeover but you can’t overcome bad genes
You're right about the lack of imbeciles, meryl, but is that a good thing? If JD didn't keep the blob's Cabinet, Thiel could buy a whole crew of expert propagandists and fixers to do his bidding. Imagine if Kegstand, Ice Barbie, and Blondie, and the rest were equally dedicated, but additionally, intelligent about implementing Project 2025. Thiel's money could buy a LOT of loyalty, despite JD's being such an unlikeable doofus.
Oh but Vance doesn't lack imbeciles -- they're lined up in Congress and Wall St. to install him in the White House. My wild bet is that the passage of the Big Ugly Bill is the real trigger, giving the Project 2025 gang of oligarchs exactly what they want and need before the Nov. 2026 midterms. Putting Trump on permanent medical leave and enthroning Vance as their proxy will make the 2026 Democratic campaigning irrelevant.
JD is disliked in every quarter except Peter Thiel-Land. And you all are right: he has negative charisma and could never galvanize or mesmerize anyone for any reason. He is a puppet and power-sniffer. Also terminally insecure and will never fully align his shitty upbringing with what he wants to portray.
Please read George Packer’s profile of Vance in the latest Atlantic.
His puppet-ness is the key, though, meryl. He'd be a willing placeholder for Thiel and Vought to wreak all the damage they want. IOW, complete the implementation of Project 2025. No stumbles, no distractions, no chickening out. No pathological narcissist to placate. In the end, maybe even worse than tRump, as high a bar as that is.
The other thing is that while the No Kings protested just pissed Dumpy off, I think they scared Justa Dick. If he were to take over, I think he'd proceed more cautiously. Maybe?
Rizz-free JD Vance can do the bidding of Peter Thiel and Russell Vought, but he cannot enchant and lead a cult. MAGA dies with Donny, but its hatred and cruelty has infected millions.
Why would he have to proceed cautiously? SCOTUS would back his every wet dream because absolute presidential immunity would still apply. His demonstrated misogyny would seal the loyalty of domestic terrorist groups. And MSM would sane-wash the shit out of him as a savvy high-tech boy and product of Yale.
Yes. Exactly this. Only the Orange Oaf seems to have the bizarre and inexplicable cult rizz, I will never understand why, but it's there and no one else has it. I'm hoping for more Stephen Miller front and center. Let MAGA see what they exactly voted for, the assholes
Absolutely not. Did you not learn anything from the 2016 and 2024 disaster? I would love that ticket, but you think that running a black woman with a Jewish VP is a winning ticket at this time? You want to run the whitest Protestant Midwest guy you can find. Both those candidates would be excellent in a different time. Do you want to win the presidency back or lose again because you wanted to be inclusive. The MAGAs need to go and if it means the Dems run Big Foot to win so be it.
Dems have a serious messaging problem. They need to stop bringing cupcakes to the gunfight. Kumbaya nonsense like "Let’s restore the soul of the nation" doesn't cut it. They need to run candidates who know how to be a-holes when required. The paint job and supernatural belief system are secondary.
What a disappointment he's turned out to be. I even sent him a little donation when he ran and I don't live in PA. Is it result of his stroke/depression or was he never the candidate we thought him to be. I think PA needs to primary him and run a different Dem next time.
Also, both are from the liberal NE. Won’t work in a general election. You have to think of appeal across America. Just can’t be only who we like or someone who only represents one part of the country.
No, about AOC. She appeals to a certain group, but she is also very disliked by others. And once again, stop running women on the next presidential ticket. I personally don't care which gender is president. I don't want another controversial candidate on our ticket. The MAGAs won't like anyone we run, but certain candidates just get hammered about stupid stuff the whole campaign. Just because a candidate is a woman doesn't mean that she's the woman for us. Would you like to have MTG, Boebert, Marsha running the country? No. From watching other countries that have been progressive enough to already have had women leaders, I don't think it makes much difference. Once women get to the top in the dirty world of politics, gender seems to take a backseat as far as policies etc.
I am all in on Crockett and yes even AOC. Somebody needs to fight for us. Call these lunatics out—do so loudly and often and shame them and their people for the cruelty insanity and yes LIES.
I am in the red desert of Texas. I would like to call everyone’s attention to a young state rep from Austin named James Talarico. Praying he runs for senator or governor soon. He is the real deal, and articulates the sickness and evil of Christian Nationalism, the billionaire oil oligarchs literally RUNNING Texas right now and so much more. He says what I believe and would say if I was young, energetic, fearless and articulate.
We need a miracle from somewhere. When a sitting United States Senator Mike Lee lies gleefully and in effect cheers the assassinations of elected officials, we are at rock bottom as a culture and a country. But I fear the bottom is still lower for these cretins. I never thought I would see this depravity in the US. Fox and Trump have unleashed the cruel millions now gladly drinking their vile koolaid.
Thanks, Jeff as always. NEVER too many words for us.
Pritzker / Crockett. Pritzker is a governor with more experience (and loads of money) However, regardless of how you or I feel, they both, unfortunately, have negatives for universal appeal Pritzker is Jewish and Crockett is Black. There is still too much prejudice in America. They would lose a small but important segment of the population.
Crockett's main drawback isn't that she's black, it's that she's a woman. We have already elected a black president, but he was a male. How many votes were cast for Trump by black males, young white males, and minority males, particularly Latinos? Don't discount the misogyny issue. It was not just about race. Harris was put in a tight spot and I feel she ran a great campaign. But I also believe that a white male would have beaten Trump again in 2024. Dems don't read the room. America voted for a black male president, but rejected 2 very qualified females of 2 different races. I think the Illinois and PA govs would make excellent candidates. But if antisemitism is increasing in this country right now, this would be like pouring gasoline on a fire. Is it fair or right? Absolutely not. But if the Dems can't find a way to get back in power, then they can't pass or enforce laws to protect the vulnerable. We have to find a candidate that can beat a MAGA candidate. It has to be someone who can appeal to middle America. America is just not the east and west coasts which are already Democratic.
You are 100% correct. They're are too many people Hispanic, Black and even White men who won't vote for a women. And it's not just race it's being female. At this time, in this country.
One thing that resonated with Biden to Trump voters was DEI. There is the (incorrect) perception that DEI means favoring race and sex over competence.. Its BS of course, but the country isn't there yet.
To the Dems, but would lost the general election. We need a candidate where the GOP can not focus on age, sex, race or religion. I love Mayor Pete, but don't think he'd do well in the general election either.
Totally agree about not wishing too hard. NO. Vance cannot be left. He is with Elon, and Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin and "Dark Enlightenment" and Flat-earther bible-thumping Johnson have to go. Cannot leave them.
If the Dems followed what is the "right thing to do" they would pursue prosecuting every member of the Trump Gang for their criminal activity. VP Vance, Don Jr, Eric and their billionaire backers are defrauding the government and all of us taxpayers with their US Treasury Crypto Reserve scam. (Fraud alert: Bitcoin, and all the other zero value crypto fake money, is not a legit investment for the US Treasury!)
Prosecute each and every bad actor. From Trump to Vance to Mike Johnson and every other member of Congress and the administration who is taking bribes and payoffs. The Trump Gang has taken $1 Billion, so far, from their crypto con game. How much of that ill gotten money finds its way into the pockets of the members of Congress? Go after every goddam criminal!
Does the DNC stand up for right over wrong? Or are they complicit in this mess?
I think there is evidence of Dems being unable to challenge the repugs. Why would that be? I would like to rip the crap out of them. If in the positions we observe, I could not keep from questioning exposing shouting from the mountain top …. Yes something is rotten in Denmark. 🇩🇰
And has been for a long time.
We I think, need to be our own thinkers. By that I mean not blindly accept info given which have the taint of “well just give it a little more time, we have to follow the procedures (set by other humans at our same rank) have faith that it will work its way through the process.
What is stopping these Opposition Leaders from telling the truth about Trump's mental and mortal sickness? His corruption. His abuse of innocent and hungry children. His misuse of the US Treasury to line his pockets. His selling out America to oil oligarchs for gifts and resort hotels. The depravity! Their silence is a scandal.
Vance would not be as dangerous because no one likes him. He has no following so the other Republicans would have no trouble standing up to him. I like Andy Bashear (Gov KY) as Democratic candidate. He is smart and electable. He would easily win some red states and all the swing states.
We can't be careful, because whatever happens, is going to happen. What we need to do is be prepared for this eventual event and his position as President taken from him and the absolute lunacy of how that goes down. Jeff's comment of "no one knows what anyone is doing" is what scares the hell out of me. As Joyce Vance says, "we're all in this together".
Save us from Vance. Or Jesus Johnson. Jeffries at least has a grip on reality. And doesn’t have a jones for cruelty. And wouldn’t be a public embarrassment.
That's not how the line of succession works. Should a miracle happen and Orange goes away and Couchfuck McGee succeeds him, a new VP would have to be appointed and confirmed by both houses of Congress, per the 25th Amendment. The Speaker doesn't just magically ascend to the office of VP.
It was FANTASTIC! Such positive energy. It really gave me hope...I think June 14th should always be No Kings Day to remind us! Hallmark will make a card for that! 😂
We pegged our small town's turnout at 1,000+, others thought there were at least 2,000 and our local paper just said there were over 5,000 at the protest. YAY!!!
Cut down Vance’s oxygen supply or at least cause that bearded bloated face to cringe in response to diaper stench emanating from from the Leader’s pants
One night someone put up a tweet from Melon commenting on tRump's odor. It was in a Bluesky post. He called it rank. I forgot to save it and have never been able to find it again. if someone has this, please send it on to me. stephenplantsga@bsky.social. Thanks!
Reagan was no genius and he started the republicans down this path. Welfare queens, denigrating the government, supply-side economics, union busting, the Laffer curve…
IMO, Vance is a scarier option. He is young, smart, well-funded, and pure evil. He might not have control of the cult, but he has the billionaire tech bros behind him with a goal of fully implementing Project 2025.
This entire G7 saga reads like a deleted scene from Idiocracy where the President gets distracted mid-negotiation by a squirrel and accidentally declares war on a salad bar.
The trade “agreement” with the European Union, signed with the UK? That’s not diplomacy, that’s a Mad Libs fever dream.
And the DonnyPhone? Of course. Because what better way to follow up international humiliation than launching a gold-plated hallucination that doesn’t exist, powered by fumes and delusion.
He didn’t leave early to fix the Middle East. He left because his handlers knew the next time he opened his mouth, a baguette might fall out.
This is not leadership. It’s a grift wrapped in senility, dipped in hairspray, and marketed as greatness.
I was one of the very few who went (Atlantic Trump Casino) on a 3 day gambling (door prize) and you folks would believe the ‘swag bag’ but at the time I was shocked at the 100% Chinese made garbage I received, really the thing I remember most was a brand new camera of course it looked like one. It never worked it was such junk I got what I paid for. Loose tables though and I actually made money there but boy was it quiet there crickets.
I don't gamble, but years ago when I was young, 4 of my friends from work and I went to the opening of the "Taj Mahal". The tackiest, most vulgar thing I have ever seen...just like him. I saw him walking through with Michael Jackson. I could not wait to get out of there.
Fuckwad in charge left the G7 because absolutely knew 2 things...
#1 He embarrassed the fuck out of himself.
#2 No one fucking likes him!!!
#3 He's a fucking idiot!!!
Ok, so 3 things...sue me.
Phones, watches, gym shoes, bibles, NFTs, Trump dollars that are worth less than toilet paper...what the fuck else is he going to hawk to rip people off??? This guy is a fucking joke!!! HEY WORLD, HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP!!!
I had an argument with a friend after the No Kings Demonstration. She said Trump is brilliant but evil. I argued that he's a con man and is stupid but knows what to say (or used to) to get people to buy his BS. What do you think.
All the glittering Trump crap is a distraction for the monkeys in MAGA to play with. It's his "golden shower" for the masses. I understand that the crypto Stable Coin (?) has been linked to the National Treasury, but that's as far as my understanding goes. Except that it's how his enterprise picks our pockets while distracting us with merch.
Schiff needs to be taken out in his reelection campaign. A greater disappointment is hard to imagine. But then, I’m a Katie Porter supporter and have been for years.
Thank you for posting this! The article reports 18 Democrats supported the so-called GENIUS bill. According to The National Prospect, 16 of these were: Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), who co-sponsored the bill, Adam Schiff (D-CA), Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD), Mark Warner (D-VA), Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), John Fetterman (D-PA), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), Jon Ossoff (D-GA), Alex Padilla (D-CA), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), and Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE). Every one of them ought to be primaried in their next election.
Take it from me. My S.O. is Italian, when an Italian woman does that eye roll, it's TIME TO START A PROJECT. IN THE FUCKING GARAGE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
It was not “a little windy out there” when Squeaky McTanktreads dropped the blank-looking pages, and called the UK the EU. In other news, Jake Tapper piggybacks on his notoriety and plugs a new thriller.
I noticed that when Taco Don opened the binder, he was trying to display his Sharpie signature chickenscratch. But then the papers fell out and Starmer picked them up and placed them directly over Dumpy's signature. All while the imbecile praised his deal with the EU not UK. Everyday of this assclown's "presidency" is an embarrassment.
It's embarrassing and humiliating as an American to be represented by this gibbering tool, who rules us on behalf of the braying, unreconstructed cultists who support him. But alas, sadopopulism is their lodestar, so it doesn't matter that he's as eloquent as a urine-soaked Speak & Spell. It doesn't matter that he's a multidimensional grifter who has less understanding of the world than an earthworm. All that matters is power...the power that the unreconstructed have over us.
This is even worse than when Dumbya was in office. At least you could laugh at Dumbya's stupid malapropisms. This is on a whole other level. It's double mean. This guy's cruelty was enough to make Dick Cheney go, "Bro calm down."
Dumbya was and still remains pretty fucking stupid. For starting a war under false pretenses, the name *Bush* as in *Bush league* will always be a four-letter moniker of shame and stupidity.
How come no one mentions that we had an Iran Nuclear agreement, the JCPOA, but shit for brains cancelled it in his first term? Let's keep reminding folks that this is all on him. He's no doubt forgotten, but Britannica hasn't. You can look it up.
Notice how he appears unable to bend over and pick up the (blank) pages he just dropped? He makes no move to do so. Can anyone imagine him bending over and then standing back up??
This is a fact. My daughter showed me a photo on TikTok where you can see the catheter tube under his pants. I’m wondering who gets to empty the piss bag.
It was certainly telling that the only thing Trump had to brag about is that "it didn't rain, there was a 100% chance of rain, and it didn't rain" that's how special of a boy I am, it didn't rain on my perade!
And we ALL know if Joe would have called the UK the European Union it would be the main story for fuckin days. This tool gets a pass at everything because my god the press may lose their access to him if they actually report the truth. UGH 86-47
Chef's kiss on today's post. You and Ms Spouse were right. My husband tells me that the main reason he left the G7 was that he didn't want to be there when Zelenskyy arrived. Trump's fee-fees would have made him cry to see someone else treated with the respect, adoration and love by the world's leaders that he so desperately craves
Yeah, no ceasefire. Something bigger. An end. An end. So who knows what he did after he dropped the papers in the gale force winds. Nobody seems to know. Not even that sorry excuse for a press secretary can come up with much more than senseless babbling. I am sure the remaining G7 attendees are toasting with champagne now that the smelly, shit for brains weasel is out of their midst. LOVE the eye roll!
folks, welcome to the longest piece I've ever written.
me: "should I cut out the part about the phone?"
ms. spouse: "no, it's good."
me: "yeah but this piece is over two thousand words. that's too long."
ms. spouse: "it's not too long. if people get tired, they'll just stop reading."
me: "oh, that's reassuring."
Jeff, you are a top news source. I almost always read something in your post that I haven't seen anywhere else. We need to keep our eyes on the snake!
Ms. Spouse sounds wonderful, you lucky man.
SAME!!!
Yup.
This one didn’t get me angry. I must be in a better mood today. The eye roll was GOLD!
I seem to remember Biden staying through the entire G7 meetings.
And he probably managed not to doze off every time he sat down, too!
But Biden committed the unforgivable sin of being old. Didn't matter that he was capable.
Somehow we are supposed to see Trump as young because he has a fake tan and dyed hair.
The other unforgivable sin, of course, was being a Democrat
IOIYAR it’s okay if you are Republican. You can stick a middle finger at the Constitution, monetize the Presidency, promise things you can’t possibly deliver, and even lie to your own voters and take money out of their pockets. On some level they know he’s doing it to them, and they obediently come back for more. I used to think they have low standards, but now I realize they have no standards whatsoever and have even wear that like a badge of honor
MAGAs are somehow proud of their ignorance and lack of mental agility. Between Reagan's economic policies and Bush Jr via John Silber crippling Dept. of Ed, have managed to give non-surgical frontal lobotomies to an entire political class. There's a sci-fi story titled, "The Marching Morons." Guess what, its no-longer fiction, and we're in the future compared to the publishing date of the story.
Not tan, exactly.
Remember how people used to say that Reagan was 'prematurely orange'?
Like that.
Biden likely didn’t need a diaper change either.
There if Trump dozing off during his own birthday parade.
While probably playing his ass trombone. Whether it's the leaders of the world or people
in the same room, that endless stench coming from both ends can only be tolerated for so long. His desire to get back to DC early sure as hell had nothing to do with calling Gov. Walz. Dump could give two shits about anyone or another tragedy committed by another one of his many fucked up supporters.
Maybe the dude has Narcolepsy…although that can be treated with Adderall…
He's SUNDOWNING from DEMENTIA
Adderall dependency over a span of years melts your brain. Just ask the Tangerine Toddler!
Late stage dementia sundowning is untreatable and progressively occurs more and more of the day.
At least with Trump there, a lot of the people in the room speak French and can talk about Trump in front of him without him having a clue. Do you think he had any translators there just in case. I suppose Japan's leader might not speak French, but I am betting Macron and Meloni are conversing in French.
Biden had his own trusted translators with him. Trump apparently has people he trusts, but they are not trustworthy. They are all using him for their own power and grift. More are auditioning by being singularly awful. What is going to happen to these ICE agents once we get rid of this fascist?
Power to the people, and let us boycott PayPal.
What about PayPal?
The evil Musk and Peter Thiel get money from PayPal since they started it. We were discussing hitting more of Musk's businesses, and that is one we could all boycott.
I quit PeePal years ago, and amazingly enough my life has ticked right along for the last 15 years. PeePal can lick all the zeros in all the other ways I pay, especially when it’s cash.
Yay Sooz! I had PayPal for a hot second. A first purchase caused a problem and I did not like they way they handled it and now it is out. They have been sending me information to an email that I will at one point get rid of. The PayPal Mafia is the worst. Zev Shalev has done a series that includes them in his The New Feudalism. https://www.narativ.org/s/the-new-feudalism
My daughter went through middle and high school understanding that no way was I going to buy her something if PayPal was the only way to pay. It is why I don't subscribe to my local paper in Germany, but I have been complaining to them about needing to use PayPal to get a subscription. I have not had the time to go there and complain in person, but I will do that at some point. Right now my energies go for different things.
They could tsk. Out him in English snd he wouldn’t have a clue.
True dat! However, hearing French he would just tune out, and English he might try to listen to.
I loved the eye roll 🙄🙄🙄, it's how we know exactly who they are discussing lol.
And Meloni is reasonably cordial with F47. Her doing that is notable.
Oops that might screw up Tappers narrative - careful! 😬
And staying awake, too
Nah.... it was spot on. Every word. 👏👏👏👏
Jeff could write 5,000 words and we would eat it up!
Definitely!!!
I thought it was too short🤣🤣
So did Melania
Stormy said it was
OMG!
Jeff, you nail it everyday but today was outstanding!
Honestly, your columns are always too short.
I read the whole damn thing and enjoyed it!!!
Jeff, you could write a 10,000 word essay and I'd read it. Gotta admit, "Squeaky McTanktread" made me laugh out loud. And apparently, from what I've observed so far, no-one in the Dumpf administration knows what anyone else is doing, and most of them don't even know what THEY'RE doing from moment to moment.
Dumpf seems to have the attention span of a gnat, or he's simply not being informed of what his own press "secretary" is telling the world about why he's leaving the G7.
Squeaky McTanktread= instant classic. On the mantle with Agolf Shitler.
Oh so good!
This post isn't too long. It's a healthy high-protein snack. Also laughter-inducing, and therefore medically necessary.
Satisfying like good comfort food 😋
Jeff, Thank you as always for the work that you do.
We covered the big beautiful blowjob....sorry....budget bill....and what the Senate has done to malform and disfigure it.
https://thistleandmoss.com/p/the-big-beautiful-bill-the-senate
As always jeff liked, restacked, quoted, and x-posted.
Keep up the good fight.
🤣🤣🤣 Ms. Spouse, as always, is both correct and amazing. And so was this column, Jeff. Pure gold from beginning to end. The GIF of Macron and Meloni alone was worth the price of admission.
Agreed! 👏🏻
I checked my Rump watch and it only took me 10 minutes to consume every tasty bit, Jeff. Or is that 12 minutes…having trouble reading the dial.
That Rump watch is NEVER right not even TWICE a day.
I know, Kristy, but it’s GOLD!
The little hand is on the 2, and the other little hand is on the 2. And nobody’s satisfied
I'll never get tired of this because it gives voice to so many things I feel. Thanks for writing it.
It's one of the things that's the balm against how Murc's Law allows this creature to shamble about without accountability.
Nonsense, it read like a breeze. I was told once by an editor that editing my article only made it longer--my feeling is that it was like a nicely packed in watch and that once they took the cover off and started tinkering, the springs flew every which way. One of the reasons I retired...but what I mean is that this piece has a lot of space in it because you didn't have to boil down Emperor Stupid's pronouncements and just got a lot of the hideo-comedy of his Canadian trip in there, with photos illustrating the awfulness of it all.
Mrs. Spouse is right! Sometimes, when I’m done reading, I click my heels together saying “I wish there was more. I wish there was more”.
lol. Ms Spouse is the best!
I coulda kept readin'
I know, right? Jeff is the only writer who keeps me sane during this horrible national nightmare. I'm so afraid that Kegsbreath is going to start throwing nukes. These people are insane.
Rumor has it (maybe I started it, who knows?) that Orange is blaming Kegbreath for the dismal showing on June 14th. Poor attendance, poor formations by the troops (malicious compliance?) etc. Maybe the Secretary of DUI will finally be forced to resign. Or at least have his paws slapped.
I always enjoy every word you post. But, you might want to stop counting embarrassment in days, and go to hours. Maybe minutes.
With a spouse like that who needs enemies? 🤷🏼🤷🏼🤷🏼🤷🏼
"let’s give the irrepressible scamp half a gold star. good boy, Donny!" 😂😂
I wish Mark Carney could be our guy. He's tremendous. Insiders have said the felons team is in panic mode and I believe it. They also said the felon indeed does have an odor. And its beyond obvious he's mentally losing it.
I want Vance to get off the couch and get ready to take over...because maybe the cult will begin to dissolve without their dear leader.
Damn, America. Get your shit together. Beyond embarrassing.
The Dems should be shouting the truth from every platform: "The President is morally and mentally defective. He lives in an upside down world where wrong is right. Cruelty to children is a virtue. Criminal fraud is to be ignored. The good guys are bad and the bad guys (who pay bribes) are pardoned. Bribery and high crimes. Impeach. Convict. Remove. Prosecute."
Agree! 👏👏👏👏
They are. But the MSM has turned off the microphones.
Remove by any means necessary
Do these people have socks stuffed in their mouths? The silence is deafening.
https://democrats.org/leadership-dnc/
We have to be careful about what we wish for. I agree that trump should be impeached and thrown out of office, but would Vance be any better for us? I have very mixed feelings about that. Even if we could also get rid of Vance, we’d end up with Mike Johnson taking over! If it were after a blue wave midterm I wouldn’t want a President Hakeem Jeffries either. Now a President Jasmine Crockett I could get behind!
Rizz-free JD Vance can do the bidding of Peter Thiel and Russell Vought, but he cannot enchant and lead a cult. MAGA dies with Donny.
I think you're right. Every cult needs a leader to follow. With the felon gone, I think the cult evaporates.
Yep, the orange cult would likely evaporate. But....perhaps that wouldn’t matter, given Thiel's capacity to purchase power. Not as great as Muck's, but still considerable. And doubtless Muck would see the advantage of joining with Thiel. All the ones who are bought now would stay bought, and Thiel and Vought would be ingenious about wielding even more behind-the-scenes influence with Lardo out of the way. JD would not only obey, he'd be falling all over himself to carry out their wishes. If the cultists saw JD still hating the same people they hate, they might not adore him, but chances are they wouldn't oppose him. And orange voters are only about one-third of the population, anyway.
But doing Thiel's and Vought's bidding could be very bad indeed. Their plans, executed by someone who’s not [yet] insane....scary.
Maybe you are right Denise… but Vance does not have imbeciles, incompetents and loyal sycophants who will slavishly follow. Maybe the Oli-Money from his Silicon Valley underwriters will buoy Vance through his next phase…. But he is not The Donald. He doesn’t have Goebbels-Miller. He has two left feet, communications-wise. He can’t learn to be engaging. His wife has worked mightily on his makeover but you can’t overcome bad genes
You're right about the lack of imbeciles, meryl, but is that a good thing? If JD didn't keep the blob's Cabinet, Thiel could buy a whole crew of expert propagandists and fixers to do his bidding. Imagine if Kegstand, Ice Barbie, and Blondie, and the rest were equally dedicated, but additionally, intelligent about implementing Project 2025. Thiel's money could buy a LOT of loyalty, despite JD's being such an unlikeable doofus.
Oh but Vance doesn't lack imbeciles -- they're lined up in Congress and Wall St. to install him in the White House. My wild bet is that the passage of the Big Ugly Bill is the real trigger, giving the Project 2025 gang of oligarchs exactly what they want and need before the Nov. 2026 midterms. Putting Trump on permanent medical leave and enthroning Vance as their proxy will make the 2026 Democratic campaigning irrelevant.
Awful, I agree. I’m hoping for a 2026 end of the regime.
Standard caveat: assuming there are 2026 elections.
Assuming we still have a country in 2026. If not, we also lose our deposit on that Key West snowbird rental.
True. I have trouble imagining how anyone could like him, let alone worship him.
JD is disliked in every quarter except Peter Thiel-Land. And you all are right: he has negative charisma and could never galvanize or mesmerize anyone for any reason. He is a puppet and power-sniffer. Also terminally insecure and will never fully align his shitty upbringing with what he wants to portray.
Please read George Packer’s profile of Vance in the latest Atlantic.
Thats why Trump picked him. No competition for center stage.
His puppet-ness is the key, though, meryl. He'd be a willing placeholder for Thiel and Vought to wreak all the damage they want. IOW, complete the implementation of Project 2025. No stumbles, no distractions, no chickening out. No pathological narcissist to placate. In the end, maybe even worse than tRump, as high a bar as that is.
JD has all the charm of a dead cactus. Or as a copier repairman I once knew said about another of his clients, "He has the personality of a sponge".
"When he comes into a room you feel like someone's just left it. . ."
He's like a Slinky - useless, but it always makes you smile when you push it down the stairs.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Excellent! HA!
😂😂😂
That’s the thing. And Vance is nowhere near as embarrassing.
Oh, I can't agree about Vance being less embarrassing. Just differently embarrassing.
He is when he tries to tell a joke. He and the Space Nazi can't tell jokes to save their lives. They're just cringe.
The other thing is that while the No Kings protested just pissed Dumpy off, I think they scared Justa Dick. If he were to take over, I think he'd proceed more cautiously. Maybe?
Rizz-free JD Vance can do the bidding of Peter Thiel and Russell Vought, but he cannot enchant and lead a cult. MAGA dies with Donny, but its hatred and cruelty has infected millions.
Why would he have to proceed cautiously? SCOTUS would back his every wet dream because absolute presidential immunity would still apply. His demonstrated misogyny would seal the loyalty of domestic terrorist groups. And MSM would sane-wash the shit out of him as a savvy high-tech boy and product of Yale.
Well, okay. I was trying for some optimism, but you're right.
That’s right and there are a lot of Republicans who can’t stand Vance. He’s got that ick factor! I can see he and Peter Miller killing each other.
Yes. Exactly this. Only the Orange Oaf seems to have the bizarre and inexplicable cult rizz, I will never understand why, but it's there and no one else has it. I'm hoping for more Stephen Miller front and center. Let MAGA see what they exactly voted for, the assholes
And would the presidential immunity debacle transfer over to the VP who gets sworn in as POTUS? Im assuming yes, but it could be challenged.
Get rid of Taco , then deal with the TAQUITO.
Couchfuck McTaquito, I like it
😂😂😂
Crockett/Pritzker 2028
Absolutely not. Did you not learn anything from the 2016 and 2024 disaster? I would love that ticket, but you think that running a black woman with a Jewish VP is a winning ticket at this time? You want to run the whitest Protestant Midwest guy you can find. Both those candidates would be excellent in a different time. Do you want to win the presidency back or lose again because you wanted to be inclusive. The MAGAs need to go and if it means the Dems run Big Foot to win so be it.
Andy Bashear, Governor of KY
Dems have a serious messaging problem. They need to stop bringing cupcakes to the gunfight. Kumbaya nonsense like "Let’s restore the soul of the nation" doesn't cut it. They need to run candidates who know how to be a-holes when required. The paint job and supernatural belief system are secondary.
Big Foot? Are we doing John Fetterman again?
What a disappointment he's turned out to be. I even sent him a little donation when he ran and I don't live in PA. Is it result of his stroke/depression or was he never the candidate we thought him to be. I think PA needs to primary him and run a different Dem next time.
How about Murphy/AOC? That idea always tickles my fancy-best of everything!
Also, both are from the liberal NE. Won’t work in a general election. You have to think of appeal across America. Just can’t be only who we like or someone who only represents one part of the country.
No, about AOC. She appeals to a certain group, but she is also very disliked by others. And once again, stop running women on the next presidential ticket. I personally don't care which gender is president. I don't want another controversial candidate on our ticket. The MAGAs won't like anyone we run, but certain candidates just get hammered about stupid stuff the whole campaign. Just because a candidate is a woman doesn't mean that she's the woman for us. Would you like to have MTG, Boebert, Marsha running the country? No. From watching other countries that have been progressive enough to already have had women leaders, I don't think it makes much difference. Once women get to the top in the dirty world of politics, gender seems to take a backseat as far as policies etc.
I’m in agreement with Hunter here- and we need Pritzger in Illinois - not trying to clean up the mess this clown leaves the country in!
Is Crockett old enough? She has more intelligence and youthful energy than the entire Republican Party
She's 44. And if not President, I'd like to see her as an associate Supreme Court justice.
Fun fact: SCOTUS justices don't need to be judges, or even have a law degree
Additional fun fact: The Speaker of the House doesn't need to be in Congress.
Or have a functioning brain, apparently
Yeah, but Bonnie, a rock has more intelligence and youthful energy....
A black woman. Not for 2028. That would be a disaster and I think she's fabulous. There will be a place for her, just not now.
I am all in on Crockett and yes even AOC. Somebody needs to fight for us. Call these lunatics out—do so loudly and often and shame them and their people for the cruelty insanity and yes LIES.
I am in the red desert of Texas. I would like to call everyone’s attention to a young state rep from Austin named James Talarico. Praying he runs for senator or governor soon. He is the real deal, and articulates the sickness and evil of Christian Nationalism, the billionaire oil oligarchs literally RUNNING Texas right now and so much more. He says what I believe and would say if I was young, energetic, fearless and articulate.
We need a miracle from somewhere. When a sitting United States Senator Mike Lee lies gleefully and in effect cheers the assassinations of elected officials, we are at rock bottom as a culture and a country. But I fear the bottom is still lower for these cretins. I never thought I would see this depravity in the US. Fox and Trump have unleashed the cruel millions now gladly drinking their vile koolaid.
Thanks, Jeff as always. NEVER too many words for us.
Austin, a sane blue oasis in a red ocean of utter lunacy (but pretty good BBQ tho)
Pritzker / Crockett. Pritzker is a governor with more experience (and loads of money) However, regardless of how you or I feel, they both, unfortunately, have negatives for universal appeal Pritzker is Jewish and Crockett is Black. There is still too much prejudice in America. They would lose a small but important segment of the population.
Crockett's main drawback isn't that she's black, it's that she's a woman. We have already elected a black president, but he was a male. How many votes were cast for Trump by black males, young white males, and minority males, particularly Latinos? Don't discount the misogyny issue. It was not just about race. Harris was put in a tight spot and I feel she ran a great campaign. But I also believe that a white male would have beaten Trump again in 2024. Dems don't read the room. America voted for a black male president, but rejected 2 very qualified females of 2 different races. I think the Illinois and PA govs would make excellent candidates. But if antisemitism is increasing in this country right now, this would be like pouring gasoline on a fire. Is it fair or right? Absolutely not. But if the Dems can't find a way to get back in power, then they can't pass or enforce laws to protect the vulnerable. We have to find a candidate that can beat a MAGA candidate. It has to be someone who can appeal to middle America. America is just not the east and west coasts which are already Democratic.
You are 100% correct. They're are too many people Hispanic, Black and even White men who won't vote for a women. And it's not just race it's being female. At this time, in this country.
One thing that resonated with Biden to Trump voters was DEI. There is the (incorrect) perception that DEI means favoring race and sex over competence.. Its BS of course, but the country isn't there yet.
Crockett and Pritzker (in reverse order) would be a dream ticket
To the Dems, but would lost the general election. We need a candidate where the GOP can not focus on age, sex, race or religion. I love Mayor Pete, but don't think he'd do well in the general election either.
Walz / AOC
???
Sure, they're not busy.
See???!
Yup I do
Totally agree about not wishing too hard. NO. Vance cannot be left. He is with Elon, and Peter Thiel and Curtis Yarvin and "Dark Enlightenment" and Flat-earther bible-thumping Johnson have to go. Cannot leave them.
If the Dems followed what is the "right thing to do" they would pursue prosecuting every member of the Trump Gang for their criminal activity. VP Vance, Don Jr, Eric and their billionaire backers are defrauding the government and all of us taxpayers with their US Treasury Crypto Reserve scam. (Fraud alert: Bitcoin, and all the other zero value crypto fake money, is not a legit investment for the US Treasury!)
Prosecute each and every bad actor. From Trump to Vance to Mike Johnson and every other member of Congress and the administration who is taking bribes and payoffs. The Trump Gang has taken $1 Billion, so far, from their crypto con game. How much of that ill gotten money finds its way into the pockets of the members of Congress? Go after every goddam criminal!
Does the DNC stand up for right over wrong? Or are they complicit in this mess?
I think there is evidence of Dems being unable to challenge the repugs. Why would that be? I would like to rip the crap out of them. If in the positions we observe, I could not keep from questioning exposing shouting from the mountain top …. Yes something is rotten in Denmark. 🇩🇰
And has been for a long time.
We I think, need to be our own thinkers. By that I mean not blindly accept info given which have the taint of “well just give it a little more time, we have to follow the procedures (set by other humans at our same rank) have faith that it will work its way through the process.
We have been fed bunk since the Mueller Report.
They are complicit. They are politicians first.
The DNC is a political organization. It only has power in elections and electioneering.
Democratic Party Leadership
What is stopping these Opposition Leaders from telling the truth about Trump's mental and mortal sickness? His corruption. His abuse of innocent and hungry children. His misuse of the US Treasury to line his pockets. His selling out America to oil oligarchs for gifts and resort hotels. The depravity! Their silence is a scandal.
https://democrats.org/leadership-dnc/
Vance would not be as dangerous because no one likes him. He has no following so the other Republicans would have no trouble standing up to him. I like Andy Bashear (Gov KY) as Democratic candidate. He is smart and electable. He would easily win some red states and all the swing states.
We can't be careful, because whatever happens, is going to happen. What we need to do is be prepared for this eventual event and his position as President taken from him and the absolute lunacy of how that goes down. Jeff's comment of "no one knows what anyone is doing" is what scares the hell out of me. As Joyce Vance says, "we're all in this together".
YES!!!! on Jasmine Crockett.
Anyone else at the least would not be as twisted mentally as rump.
Jasmine Crockett for President!!! She is smart, energetic, and names the fault in those who are ripping us off.
She would not have sat quiet during the many travesties we have endured.
I am so done with all those who told us to be good little boys and girls.
WE NEED ACTION AND WE NEED IT NOW!!!! 🇺🇸🥳
Save us from Vance. Or Jesus Johnson. Jeffries at least has a grip on reality. And doesn’t have a jones for cruelty. And wouldn’t be a public embarrassment.
All true, but I don’t think he has what it takes to be president.
💯💯💯
Vance is smarter. is that good or bad?
That's not how the line of succession works. Should a miracle happen and Orange goes away and Couchfuck McGee succeeds him, a new VP would have to be appointed and confirmed by both houses of Congress, per the 25th Amendment. The Speaker doesn't just magically ascend to the office of VP.
God knows, we're trying. Saturday was a grand start, no?
It was FANTASTIC! Such positive energy. It really gave me hope...I think June 14th should always be No Kings Day to remind us! Hallmark will make a card for that! 😂
11-12 million marched and not the 5 million MSM reported!!
They can say two dozen if they want. Everyone saw the pics/vids
We pegged our small town's turnout at 1,000+, others thought there were at least 2,000 and our local paper just said there were over 5,000 at the protest. YAY!!!
Thats awesome!!
There were about 4,000 at my local protest. There would have been more if the temp wasn't 91° 🥵
Yes, it should be a national holiday.
A Hallmark card? Do they still sell those?
LOL! I’m showing my age! 🤣
I hope he at least gets to cropdust our execrable VP every moment he can.
Cut down Vance’s oxygen supply or at least cause that bearded bloated face to cringe in response to diaper stench emanating from from the Leader’s pants
Did you mean you want Vance to pull out of the couch?
😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣. Yes! That’s exactly what I meant!
Too bad his father didn't
😂😂
One night someone put up a tweet from Melon commenting on tRump's odor. It was in a Bluesky post. He called it rank. I forgot to save it and have never been able to find it again. if someone has this, please send it on to me. stephenplantsga@bsky.social. Thanks!
I know Adam Kinsinger has commented on the Krasnov stench. He was pretty descriptive. He’s on Substack as well as BlueSky.
I’ve heard him, but this a XITTER post reposted on Bluesky.
https://www.salon.com/2023/12/28/ex-lawmaker-describes-as-smelling-like-a-mix-of-armpits-ketchup-and-a-butt/
Thank you, but that is not the one. This was a repost of a Xitter post by Melon Musk - or a clever fabrication.
I saw Kinsinger on a talk show within the last few months and he didn’t say anything different. Maybe check his website.
I mean, cant someone on his team do SOMETHING about it??
Good grief. 🤦♀️
Why would they. He takes center stage, they shovel up bribes back stage.
It is common in late stage dementia, as well as being a common side effect of long-term Adderall abuse.
RANK, like rotten rost beef and ammonia
It seems our Republican Presidents have been getting dumber & dumber since Reagan
Reagan was no genius and he started the republicans down this path. Welfare queens, denigrating the government, supply-side economics, union busting, the Laffer curve…
Vance will also be terrible..
IMO, Vance is a scarier option. He is young, smart, well-funded, and pure evil. He might not have control of the cult, but he has the billionaire tech bros behind him with a goal of fully implementing Project 2025.
I wish we could have PM Carney too!!! Like maybe adopting the whole northern section of the country… or at least…Vermont. 🤞🙏🏻
This entire G7 saga reads like a deleted scene from Idiocracy where the President gets distracted mid-negotiation by a squirrel and accidentally declares war on a salad bar.
The trade “agreement” with the European Union, signed with the UK? That’s not diplomacy, that’s a Mad Libs fever dream.
And the DonnyPhone? Of course. Because what better way to follow up international humiliation than launching a gold-plated hallucination that doesn’t exist, powered by fumes and delusion.
He didn’t leave early to fix the Middle East. He left because his handlers knew the next time he opened his mouth, a baguette might fall out.
This is not leadership. It’s a grift wrapped in senility, dipped in hairspray, and marketed as greatness.
May our embarrassment ticker rust in place.
"DonnyPhone" 🤣
I was one of the very few who went (Atlantic Trump Casino) on a 3 day gambling (door prize) and you folks would believe the ‘swag bag’ but at the time I was shocked at the 100% Chinese made garbage I received, really the thing I remember most was a brand new camera of course it looked like one. It never worked it was such junk I got what I paid for. Loose tables though and I actually made money there but boy was it quiet there crickets.
I don't gamble, but years ago when I was young, 4 of my friends from work and I went to the opening of the "Taj Mahal". The tackiest, most vulgar thing I have ever seen...just like him. I saw him walking through with Michael Jackson. I could not wait to get out of there.
Glad you made money while he went bankrupt.
“This is not leadership. It’s a grift wrapped in senility, dipped in hairspray, and marketed as greatness.”
Outstanding!
Fuckwad in charge left the G7 because absolutely knew 2 things...
#1 He embarrassed the fuck out of himself.
#2 No one fucking likes him!!!
#3 He's a fucking idiot!!!
Ok, so 3 things...sue me.
Phones, watches, gym shoes, bibles, NFTs, Trump dollars that are worth less than toilet paper...what the fuck else is he going to hawk to rip people off??? This guy is a fucking joke!!! HEY WORLD, HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP!!!
Nailed it! He doesn’t do anything that requires knowledge or leadership so we all know he did not leave the G7 to lead us into war with Iran.
It was predictable that he would exit early… his handlers and diaper changers could not trust him untethered and near a live mic
He's about as useful as condoms to a eunuch.
Or teats in a bull!
ON a Bull! Oops!
I was gonna say tits on a boar hog.
I had an argument with a friend after the No Kings Demonstration. She said Trump is brilliant but evil. I argued that he's a con man and is stupid but knows what to say (or used to) to get people to buy his BS. What do you think.
I agree with you, rlritt. He has a feral cunning. It's not intelligence, it's survival instinct.
With apologies to all feral creatures, who are universally smarter, more moral beings than the orange blob.
Thats what I think. He makes a lot stupid mistakes that means understand what he's talking about.
All the glittering Trump crap is a distraction for the monkeys in MAGA to play with. It's his "golden shower" for the masses. I understand that the crypto Stable Coin (?) has been linked to the National Treasury, but that's as far as my understanding goes. Except that it's how his enterprise picks our pockets while distracting us with merch.
Yup, follow the mucking funny!
The FUCKING MONEY?
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/democrats-help-push-crypto-industry-184834036.html
Schiff needs to be taken out in his reelection campaign. A greater disappointment is hard to imagine. But then, I’m a Katie Porter supporter and have been for years.
Some democratd backed this bill.
Thank you for posting this! The article reports 18 Democrats supported the so-called GENIUS bill. According to The National Prospect, 16 of these were: Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), who co-sponsored the bill, Adam Schiff (D-CA), Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD), Mark Warner (D-VA), Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), John Fetterman (D-PA), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV), Ben Ray Luján (D-NM), Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), Jon Ossoff (D-GA), Alex Padilla (D-CA), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), and Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE). Every one of them ought to be primaried in their next election.
I agree 100%!!!
I got it!!! Trump brand hairspray! You too can style your ‘do’ just like Donny does every morning! It’ll be a best seller!
😂😂😂😂
That's a blonde tribble on his head.
Take it from me. My S.O. is Italian, when an Italian woman does that eye roll, it's TIME TO START A PROJECT. IN THE FUCKING GARAGE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.
🤣🤣🤣
Georgia Meloni is all of us every time this shit spewing orange gibbon speaks.
It was not “a little windy out there” when Squeaky McTanktreads dropped the blank-looking pages, and called the UK the EU. In other news, Jake Tapper piggybacks on his notoriety and plugs a new thriller.
"Squeaky McTanktreads" 😂😂 Excellent!
On The List. Thanks for another contribution Jeff!
The pages were blank weren't they? But Sleepy Joe Biden didn't know what his autopen was signing. Got it.
I noticed that when Taco Don opened the binder, he was trying to display his Sharpie signature chickenscratch. But then the papers fell out and Starmer picked them up and placed them directly over Dumpy's signature. All while the imbecile praised his deal with the EU not UK. Everyday of this assclown's "presidency" is an embarrassment.
Yes! Windy! It actually was one of Trump’s famous farts that blew all the pages out of his hands.
It's embarrassing and humiliating as an American to be represented by this gibbering tool, who rules us on behalf of the braying, unreconstructed cultists who support him. But alas, sadopopulism is their lodestar, so it doesn't matter that he's as eloquent as a urine-soaked Speak & Spell. It doesn't matter that he's a multidimensional grifter who has less understanding of the world than an earthworm. All that matters is power...the power that the unreconstructed have over us.
This is even worse than when Dumbya was in office. At least you could laugh at Dumbya's stupid malapropisms. This is on a whole other level. It's double mean. This guy's cruelty was enough to make Dick Cheney go, "Bro calm down."
Dumbya is not in the league of Drumpfs incompetence & stupidity. Hell- he’s not even in the same room as Donny 2Dolls
ignorance and inhumanity.
Hell he’s not even in the same planet!
Hell, not even the same galaxy!!!
Dumbya was and still remains pretty fucking stupid. For starting a war under false pretenses, the name *Bush* as in *Bush league* will always be a four-letter moniker of shame and stupidity.
I always refer to him as "Shrub," because he isn't even enough of a person to qualify as a full-grown bush.
How come no one mentions that we had an Iran Nuclear agreement, the JCPOA, but shit for brains cancelled it in his first term? Let's keep reminding folks that this is all on him. He's no doubt forgotten, but Britannica hasn't. You can look it up.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention Dotty!
Really good question, Dotty: how come? MSM is worthless. Worse than worthless. They'd NEVER ask a question like that.
No need. Of course I remember.
A crash test dummy would make a better president.
And be smarter and more compassionate.
Ms spouse was right. We love your letters Jeff. Keep writing. They are spot on and funny. Has to be funny or I’d go insane.
Notice how he appears unable to bend over and pick up the (blank) pages he just dropped? He makes no move to do so. Can anyone imagine him bending over and then standing back up??
It would break the catheter if he bent over.
He didn’t want to dislodge the catheter and the piss bag strapped to his leg
This is a fact. My daughter showed me a photo on TikTok where you can see the catheter tube under his pants. I’m wondering who gets to empty the piss bag.
Looks like he's brought back Waltine Nauta, listed on Google as "American Valet," to hover behind him. Collecting that sweet MAGA Kool-Aid.
Nauta was watching him closely at his perade. I think he was ready to catch him if he fell forward.
Agree. Nauta knew Melania wouldn't make the effort.
😂😂
President Squeaky McTanktread!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH!
It was certainly telling that the only thing Trump had to brag about is that "it didn't rain, there was a 100% chance of rain, and it didn't rain" that's how special of a boy I am, it didn't rain on my perade!
And we ALL know if Joe would have called the UK the European Union it would be the main story for fuckin days. This tool gets a pass at everything because my god the press may lose their access to him if they actually report the truth. UGH 86-47
"...perade!" Did T💩p also enjoy a smocking hot hamberder and covffe after the perade?
L to the O to the L!!
Chef's kiss on today's post. You and Ms Spouse were right. My husband tells me that the main reason he left the G7 was that he didn't want to be there when Zelenskyy arrived. Trump's fee-fees would have made him cry to see someone else treated with the respect, adoration and love by the world's leaders that he so desperately craves
Oh, that’s gotta be the reason! No Z for Drumpf - he doesn’t like the way he dresses!
I noticed Zelensky arrived after POS took his diaper and went home.
Yeah, no ceasefire. Something bigger. An end. An end. So who knows what he did after he dropped the papers in the gale force winds. Nobody seems to know. Not even that sorry excuse for a press secretary can come up with much more than senseless babbling. I am sure the remaining G7 attendees are toasting with champagne now that the smelly, shit for brains weasel is out of their midst. LOVE the eye roll!
Meloni wins regular summit
A BIG BEAUTIFUL BOMB ?
