For everyone that shares the concern that tfg might not make it through the trial, I found this quick-read Daily Kos Article by Torta to be heartening and an excellent writeup with “concise detailed information and support for arguments.”
“Unlike Obama before him and Biden after him, in a time of extreme stress and need, Trump does not have a beloved spouse and partner whom he can turn to for support. After all, this trial is about him falsifying business records to interfere with an election, but the reason that happened is that he schtupped a porn star and sex worker while his wife Melania was about to give birth to her first and only child with him. And this became worldwide knowledge, very humiliating for Melania. Never a warm one to begin with, from the moment “Stormy Daniels” became a commonly known phrase, Melania really turned up the arctic chill toward the man she only married for money, and everybody knows it. So, every night after night after night, Trump is alone.” Where is Jeff’s ‘smallest violin in the world’ when we need it?
Torta’s final paragraph sums it up. “I am now more optimistic that this situation could finish Trump off politically. But more than that — the odds are considerably greater than zero that this trial finishes Trump off literally. Either in mind (already in tatters) or in body.” Also check out the “gold medal comments”. “Wish they’d stop calling this an “affair” An “affair” takes longer than 27 seconds and you don’t have to pay someone $130,000.”
You are correct that what Trump did was not an affair. It was also not a tryst or sex with a friend. This was sex for payment to a prostitute and then became payment to the prostitute to conceal the sex he had with her in order for him to run for the presidency of the US. He’s a calculating idiot, but once again he miscalculated how to conceal his tawdry actions. May he rot in hell.
But CaroleAnn, Stormy was not a prostitute. That’s where people get it wrong. She, like McDougal, thought he liked her. After all, they met 18 years ago. She was a porn actress and a film director.
Stormy Daniels traded sex for the opportunity to appear on Trump’s show The Apprentice. I’m calling it as I see it, and you are free to call it a tit for tat, a quid pro quo, an equal exchange or something in return scenario. She is part of the sex trade and as such carries the nomenclature associated with that particular trade.
I find it judgmental - words have emotional connotations. While you describe her as such, you do not refer yo tfg as a “john” or some other demeaning term. Why not?
It seems obvious that Donny is decompensating. Narcissists cannot endure daily “death by a thousand blows” treatment. They need a place to go to regroup themselves. Donny is stuck in a dingy place with a thousand blows hitting him all day, four days a week.
This experience with reality is exhausting and threatening for him. He will not make it to the end of the trial. If he does, his bloated image will be badly damaged…. Hopefully terminally damaged
In a related note: does anyone think Judge Merchan can effectively punish Don for intentionally pushing boundaries re: the gag order? Of course he should be given the common man treatment and be relocated to a jail cell. Sadly, it won’t happen.
Last, and unrelated: reporters note that the courtroom is smelly. Could it be related to the defendant’s diapers? How long does he sit there between breaks? Does he use a public restroom to change his pee pee pads or is he again give VIP treatment and give use of a private potty? These are questions that demand answers.
Meryl, He needs to be placed in an anti-room to courtroom with view and sound of proceedings and inability to talk until talked to. Otherwise confined to trump tower for duration of trial. No more impromptu news conference No truth social, or other social networks and no more contact with the outside world until after the trial. That'll show him.
I was reading elsewhere that that court in the real world is typically smelly. I am sure Trump's diapers don't help it, but that might be because he cannot get up regularly and get his aid to help him change it.
Here is a list of donors that are behind this walking Red Button pushing time bomb.
Since I have mold allergies I can imagine in a damp building that the air could be moldy. That can be leaks in the walls, etc. I know I could not be on a jury in a building like that because I have mold triggered asthma. At least not without having a lot of medicine and maybe oxygen. I would assume the valet that has accepted having a shared attorney paid by Treacherous-treasonous-tantruming-traitor-Trump, for a trial that involves espionage. That kinds of valet. What is his name? Walt Nauta? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/longtime-trump-employee-mar-lago-culture-led-many-commit-crimes-rcna144313
🎯Yes, it's not like she doesn't know he is guilty! It is like the widow of the fad diet guy, that died of a heart attack, pretending it wasn't true, her income depended on people buying her diet lies.
No one ever mentions the fact that Barron is basically an "anchor baby"--just like the ones the GQP wants to evict from the country. (Fine. Send him back to Slobovia along with his mother.)
I've mentioned it many times. Not only that, Melanoma flouted the conditions of her tourist visa when she first came here. She would be a priority target for deportation under the GQP's immigration policy.
6-8 weeks for the trial and maybe, just maybe Judge Merchan will hold him accountable for violating the gag order unlike Engoron did or Cannon will. We shall see!
Donna, I really think it might happen, maybe confined to trump tower instead of Rikers and place him in an anti room during the trial, where he can see and hear until given permission to speak.
Hmmmm, not sure, in the courtroom yeah, I mean who would want to look at trump in a little room surrounded by SS agents? Will have to think about that. Do you think the jurors will stare at him all the time?
This is my thing--everyone is acting like Trump's family not being there is kinda shitty on their part. I am like, why the hell should they be there? Melania should support her cheating hubby?The kids their abusive father? I don't like none of them but I wholly understand why they aren't there and don't blame them one bit.
Alicia, Most folks like this hang around waiting for him to die so they can get his money, maybe they know the money will all be gone after all lawsuits.
Love this idea, but I'm not sure this trial is going to have much of an impact on his cultists. Moreso for everyone else, though. I'd love to see a breakdown into even more gibberish from Trump. I wonder what his b.p. is like these days.
I am a San Francisco native. Harry Truman (a Missouri native) was President when I was born. Did he (the buck stops here) need any help?
I have been to New York City a number of times and walked around in Manhattan. When you are on the street there, people from 150 different countries could be on the same block as you are. Stay outta the way of the cabbies. But let the colors and smell of a blessed city soak in and you will feel a little electricity and joy in knowing that all of these people can live in peace and try to help each other.
Need some help in NYC? As a professional long haul truck driver I did on a couple of occasions. It is real easy to get lost or come upon a 12 foot overpass in a 13 foot 6 inch tractor trailer. New Yorkers will drop what they are doing and stop traffic if they can to help someone they think is a decent person.
That's why they ran the stinking Trumps off. They are tired of mob bosses and people only put for themselves.
I have nothing but praise for the people of New York City. They are doing the best that they can on the little space that they have.
As for Trump, four days a week for eight weeks sitting in a smelly courtroom while people laugh at him or tell how much they hate him may be better than jail. I actually expect Trump to suffer spontaneous human combustion.
Totally agree with you, regarding NYC. Where would you rather be? In the midst of LIFE and a majority of great people in NYC or sitting in a bar in Bumblefuck Somewhere with a bunch of fat white whiney uneducated and socially ignorant pseudo-Christians?
You wanna hang with MTG and her idiot-faced beau Brian? Or lively, interesting, REAL people in Manhattan?
Why are clumps of black or brown men scary, when armed and crazed fat inked white dudes (Jan 6) are overly-excited tourists visiting the Capitol?
Sadly, our great country trashed ‘e pluribus unum’ for In God We Trust. Not to knock the faithful, only to emphasize in a secular government of the people, for the people, by the people it is from the many, not a faux Christianity.
Huzzah!! I'm from CT, my first trip to Manhattan with a friend was when I was 15,I giggled to my friend we heard about 5 different languages while were just crossing 5th Avenue,it was glorious!! And we loved it!!
Holy Moly Macaroni, Jamie Raskin just demolished Gomer “I’m a farmer, I have land” Comer in an epic, surreal, full body slam that may have been one of the best bouts in the history of the United States House of Representatives, during an Oversight Committee hearing yesterday. This Brian Tyler Cohen You Tube moment is a must see.
Memories are short but the last time I remember this much drama on the hill was in early September 2018 when Lindsay Graham had a meltdown during the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing and literally blew a gasket. Actually, Graham has ‘blown many gaskets’, bless his heart, and that should not be taken as a double entendre.
My favorites on Comer? Jasmine Crockett and Jared Moskowitz. Moskowitz introduced an amendment to appoint MTG as Putin’s Special Envoy to the United States Congress in answer to MTG’s amendment requiring members to “conscript in the Ukrainian military” if they vote for the Ukraine supplemental bill. Comer is having a hard time holding the attention of the house.
Unfortunate the mainstream media networks only covers Republicans campaigning for clickbait for fundraising,they don't even bother to cover any Democratic responses anymore. We have to seek out people like BTC,Glenn Kirshner,Marc Elias and Ben Meiselas to provide truthful, accurate information, because it seems all broadcast media is pretty much caught up in the right-wing daily grievance, conspiracy theory and whine fest.
This whole thing is absolutely disgusting! You nailed it-mob boss….taking everything he can get and not giving a shit about anyone else. OMG…SO SICK of it! And MEDIA better wake the fuck up and not worry about the damn bottom line—-worry about the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA instead!
If only they would. The media only gives a shit about the money anus tangerinus gives them and nothing more. Instead of constantly putting the most dangerous and demented fuckface since the 1930s high on a pedestal, they should focus on the damage and destruction he would generate if given another chance. We the people deserve so much better and we've been there for the last four years.
The ultra wealthy American oligarchs who support Trump do so out of greed…. While the rest of us (everyone below the 99.99 % ) will suffer the consequences of Trump dictatorship. The very wealthiest are insulated from harm. (See: the powerful but malformed dicks who supported Jeffrey Epstein).
I can’t wait to find out! Headed to Puerto Rico early next week. Though they should probably be watching out for me… loose in the Latino Caribbean sounds like heaven to me!!! 😂🏝️⛱️
Dear Seeking: right. How many of the scary black and brown people are productive contributors to their communities? Doing work, in many cases, that they are consigned to do because of the color of their skin. How many of the racist whiners are contributing to the economy in any way? Just complaining, blaming and stoking fears.
When I lived in downtown Chicago I had friends who invited me to attend there predominantly Black church …. Where I always felt entirely welcomed and uplifted. Can you imagine a random black person going to an all white congregation? Mist likely, the police would be called.
I live in the Coachella Valley. It's Hispanic at one end and gay as Hell on the other end. We do not care. It's a great place to live. I spoke to my sister who lives in Nashville and she was complaining that she has to go to see her doctor in the "Mexican" part of town. I just laughed hysterically.
We're dealing with the King of the Douchebags. You can't be polite with a douchebag. You can't be civil. You can't win a battle with them, so you might ad well go ahead and drop the biggest, baddest hammer you've got on them. Yeah, jail. Not house arrest, not 5 digit monetary fines (use that on Scavino), fucking Riker's.
ONLY five percent! I am shocked! Another reason he took over the RNC. I like this scenario: trump cleans the clocks of all the little down ballot losers, goes to their `paltry rallies and only whines about himself then leaves town, Letissa James cleans trump's clock due to the phony 175 million bond, trump loses the election along with hundreds of magat candidates, then with whatever family or associates he's got left, he gets on his plane splits the country for ____________ fill in the blank.
Every Republican in my lifetime (I'm 62) usually just lies about 'morality' and 'fiscal responsibility' to get elected,but the first thing they do in office is reward their wealthy donors with cabinet positions,tax breaks, pardons and deregulation.
It's at least 5%. From the letter: "Any split that is higher than 5% will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump’s campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations,"
From HCR last night: Today the Trump campaign asked Republican candidates in downballot races for at least 5% of the money they raise with any fundraising appeal that uses Trump’s name or picture. They went on: “Any split that is higher than 5% will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump’s campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”
It is extortion. The GOP have ceased to exist as a credible political party with this and ongoing support of an anti rule of law presidential candidate. MAGA can now almost be described as a criminal conspiracy.
It's a shame what's happened to the GOP. If only there had been decades worth of news coverage of Trump so they could have known who they were getting in bed with. /s
Not really, Trump has the right to charge for using his name and image to raise funds. But, just like Trump hasn't figured out that the President serves the American people, not the other way around; he hasn't figured out that he's supposed to be helping his fellow Republicans get elected for the good of the party, not charging them for his help.
There MIGHT be some Republican down ballot candidates who are normy Republicans and will gladly forego using Dumbass’ name and photo in their campaign pitches, thereby keeping all of their campaign money for their own campaigns.
So the Trump National Committee is fleecing down-ballot R candidates at a rate of 5%, eh? Whoever saw that coming said no one.I predict that this whole glorious organization will be in the hole before all is said and done and it couldn’t happen to a shittier group of jackals.
I can hear Fat Donny now ... "it would be a shame if something were to happen to your nice little campaign, wouldn't it" - just like his idol Alphonse...
1. I’m a west coast gal forever, but I’ve traveled around this country quite a bit. I’ve been to NYC a few times and you know what I’ve seen? People of all different ethnicities going about their business. It’s shocking! 🙄
2. Stephen Miller is a hobgoblin.
3. I’m not a fashion icon, I don’t read Vogue, but I know an unkempt slob when I see one (looking at you, Orange)
“it wasn’t suicidal enough to hitch your electoral future to a quadrice-indicted twice-impeached popular-vote-losing adderall-huffing” <— this is one of the most unhinged brilliant owns, I’ve ever read. You sir, are amazing
BREAKING NEWS: It is with a heavy heart that I must announce that grotesque pile of steaming, maggot infested fucking dog shit known as Donald J. Trump is still alive. Please respect my privacy during this difficult time. In a pseudo-related story, I assume the "J" stands for jerk off.
The urban dictionary tells us that DJT is an acronym synonymous with "Designated Jizz Towel". Yeah, his initials are a crusty cum swab that sits next to the bed.
it was pure luck that the juror was dismissed at the exact same moment I was writing about it. usually breaking news happens two minutes after I click "send"
You just know Donnie Shitstain is just pushing the judge to throw him in jail for contempt I'm sure he figures that it will be a fundraising bonanza PLUS a media explosions. I can see it, 'Messages from Riker's Island.'
I know the judge doesn't want to play in his hand....but couldn't he do house arrest and take away his social media? Something...anything?!
I think the ultimate punishment is home confinement with no guests in his private quarters and he can't leave same. He can have no access to social media, his own included. Basically, make his home his jail. Do it for a time limit that gradually increases until he shuts the hell up. I agree with Darryl Smith who commented "I actually expect Trump to suffer spontaneous human combustion." I can see it happening.
Please oh please oh please let spontaneous combustion happen (dropping human because in this instance there’s nothing human involved)!!! Of course I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near the pile of shit when it does combust (cause ewwww), however I will do the happiest of happy dances after it occurs.
For everyone that shares the concern that tfg might not make it through the trial, I found this quick-read Daily Kos Article by Torta to be heartening and an excellent writeup with “concise detailed information and support for arguments.”

CarolwAnn, I’d like to see him rot on earth too! 😄
But CaroleAnn, Stormy was not a prostitute. That’s where people get it wrong. She, like McDougal, thought he liked her. After all, they met 18 years ago. She was a porn actress and a film director.
Stormy Daniels traded sex for the opportunity to appear on Trump’s show The Apprentice. I’m calling it as I see it, and you are free to call it a tit for tat, a quid pro quo, an equal exchange or something in return scenario. She is part of the sex trade and as such carries the nomenclature associated with that particular trade.
I find it judgmental - words have emotional connotations. While you describe her as such, you do not refer yo tfg as a “john” or some other demeaning term. Why not?
You are an utter embarrassment to women!
Since when is it verboten for women to have opinions about other women. I find your comment a bit rich. Enough said!
This is also fair. But does it actually matter what title we assign her? It’s not about her, it’s about tffg’s bookkeeping methods.
Yes, it does matter. CaroleAnn’s post is demeaning.
Yeah, Stormy Daniela's was a porn star but she was NOT a prostitute. No money changed hands when the act occurred. Shame on you!
From what Stormy has said, it was more a, “Wham, bam, thank you ma’am” with a teeny tiny mushroom job.
Co/signed!
It seems obvious that Donny is decompensating. Narcissists cannot endure daily “death by a thousand blows” treatment. They need a place to go to regroup themselves. Donny is stuck in a dingy place with a thousand blows hitting him all day, four days a week.
This experience with reality is exhausting and threatening for him. He will not make it to the end of the trial. If he does, his bloated image will be badly damaged…. Hopefully terminally damaged
In a related note: does anyone think Judge Merchan can effectively punish Don for intentionally pushing boundaries re: the gag order? Of course he should be given the common man treatment and be relocated to a jail cell. Sadly, it won’t happen.
Last, and unrelated: reporters note that the courtroom is smelly. Could it be related to the defendant’s diapers? How long does he sit there between breaks? Does he use a public restroom to change his pee pee pads or is he again give VIP treatment and give use of a private potty? These are questions that demand answers.
For decades now, Trump has always counterattacked instantaneously, and he can't do that in the courtroom. It will drive him crazy!
I'm hoping to see him sputter and drool
Me too
Hey we have a legitimate "Me Too Movement"
Anytime women get together and share their lives there's a ton of me too involved.
Yup!
Home arrest w/o wi-fi connectivity. Let SCOTUS try to untangle what that means in the 21st century.
You are good! the "no wifi" thing is genius!
Greetings to the Ethereal Fairy who flies by day daylight!
Greetings, and many blessings and good karma to you!
When your pixie dust hits me, I feel blessed! Back at you girl!
Isn't it--he would hate that worse than being in solitary conferment. I doubt he lasts the year after that kind of sentence.
Meryl, He needs to be placed in an anti-room to courtroom with view and sound of proceedings and inability to talk until talked to. Otherwise confined to trump tower for duration of trial. No more impromptu news conference No truth social, or other social networks and no more contact with the outside world until after the trial. That'll show him.

Can you believe anyone would want to allow that to happen. In the meantime, he is intimidating witnesses and not even awake in court. You might appreciate this comic about him. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/4/17/2235548/-Cartoon-Dozy-Don
Thanks Linda — for this info and also the links.
What would make a courtroom consistently smelly? Ugh. Distracting!
Can anyone imagine being the “valet” who has to help him with his diapers? I wonder what kind of extortion DJT created to keep that person quiet.
Since I have mold allergies I can imagine in a damp building that the air could be moldy. That can be leaks in the walls, etc. I know I could not be on a jury in a building like that because I have mold triggered asthma. At least not without having a lot of medicine and maybe oxygen.

She has said, "It's his problem."
She has also said that this is a sham and that they are ALL lying. So there you go. Gives new meaning to stand by your man. 🤮
Stand by your income
.....stand by your shoe salesman.
Exactly right Susan.
Bingo!
🎯Yes, it's not like she doesn't know he is guilty! It is like the widow of the fad diet guy, that died of a heart attack, pretending it wasn't true, her income depended on people buying her diet lies.
Boo Hoo! Too bad so sad.

I rump goes down she may also. ?
😊😁😂🤣
And grandma and grandpa.
Hoyt, don't threaten me with a good time! 😆
6-8 weeks for the trial and maybe, just maybe Judge Merchan will hold him accountable for violating the gag order unlike Engoron did or Cannon will. We shall see!
Donna, I really think it might happen, maybe confined to trump tower instead of Rikers and place him in an anti room during the trial, where he can see and hear until given permission to speak.
I'd like to see him treated like Bobby Seale: Bound, gagged and shackled to the chair.
That would be great! With his old decrepit ass trying to look menacing into the camera.
Wait... There's cameras in the room, right? 😳
Hmmmm, not sure, in the courtroom yeah, I mean who would want to look at trump in a little room surrounded by SS agents? Will have to think about that. Do you think the jurors will stare at him all the time?
I was hoping for a one way where he has to watch all of it without sound until he is asked a direct question. 😆
I believe this would be standard procedure for anyone else, Donna. With six weeks to go I don't see how they avoid this.
This is my thing--everyone is acting like Trump's family not being there is kinda shitty on their part. I am like, why the hell should they be there? Melania should support her cheating hubby?The kids their abusive father? I don't like none of them but I wholly understand why they aren't there and don't blame them one bit.
Alicia, Most folks like this hang around waiting for him to die so they can get his money, maybe they know the money will all be gone after all lawsuits.
Almost all of his kids have their own money from riding his coat tails.
My speculation is his money is gone, he is taxing his own party at 5%.
It is too delicious- the party that opposes excessive taxation getting taxed from the top. ☕
😊
Love this idea, but I'm not sure this trial is going to have much of an impact on his cultists. Moreso for everyone else, though. I'd love to see a breakdown into even more gibberish from Trump. I wonder what his b.p. is like these days.

The trial could help Trump? Help! Help!

What part of ‘e pluribus unum’ don’t these racist jackals understand?
Sadly, our great country trashed ‘e pluribus unum’ for In God We Trust. Not to knock the faithful, only to emphasize in a secular government of the people, for the people, by the people it is from the many, not a faux Christianity.
As far as they are concerned, 'e pluribus unum' means that North Carolina tolerates South Carolina and Kentucky tolerates Tennessee.
That is an excellent analysis. Thanks for that.

Wanna start with the e and just keep going?
All of it!

It will be very interesting to see his implosion.
Joyful, actually. Your lips to God's ears. Lord, hear our prayer and let him implode.
Please

Holy Moly Macaroni, Jamie Raskin just demolished Gomer “I’m a farmer, I have land” Comer in an epic, surreal, full body slam that may have been one of the best bouts in the history of the United States House of Representatives, during an Oversight Committee hearing yesterday.

Memories are short but the last time I remember this much drama on the hill was in early September 2018 when Lindsay Graham had a meltdown during the Kavanaugh confirmation hearing and literally blew a gasket. Actually, Graham has ‘blown many gaskets’, bless his heart, and that should not be taken as a double entendre.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTBxPPx62s4
As the Big Orange Dumbster would say “No one has ever seen anything like it!”
My favorites on Comer? Jasmine Crockett and Jared Moskowitz. Moskowitz introduced an amendment to appoint MTG as Putin’s Special Envoy to the United States Congress in answer to MTG’s amendment requiring members to “conscript in the Ukrainian military” if they vote for the Ukraine supplemental bill. Comer is having a hard time holding the attention of the house.
Seriously? MTG as “Putin’s special envoy to the US”? If so, hilarious! 😂
👌🏼🔥🔥🔥
Epic!
No way! 😂😂😂😂. Moskowitz is priceless!
I love him! He’s sharp as a tack and makes Comer look dumber than he already is!
Jared Moskowitz and Jasmine Crockett are both national treasures!
I'll say! Both are smart as they come!!!
Unfortunate the mainstream media networks only covers Republicans campaigning for clickbait for fundraising,they don't even bother to cover any Democratic responses anymore. We have to seek out people like BTC,Glenn Kirshner,Marc Elias and Ben Meiselas to provide truthful, accurate information, because it seems all broadcast media is pretty much caught up in the right-wing daily grievance, conspiracy theory and whine fest.
I guess when you live in a county,where one Republican actually owns a suit,you vote for him.
That's damn near true. And I don't even think those going into rural state legislatures need that much!
This whole thing is absolutely disgusting! You nailed it-mob boss….taking everything he can get and not giving a shit about anyone else. OMG…SO SICK of it! And MEDIA better wake the fuck up and not worry about the damn bottom line—-worry about the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA instead!
If only they would. The media only gives a shit about the money anus tangerinus gives them and nothing more. Instead of constantly putting the most dangerous and demented fuckface since the 1930s high on a pedestal, they should focus on the damage and destruction he would generate if given another chance. We the people deserve so much better and we've been there for the last four years.
The ultra wealthy American oligarchs who support Trump do so out of greed…. While the rest of us (everyone below the 99.99 % ) will suffer the consequences of Trump dictatorship. The very wealthiest are insulated from harm. (See: the powerful but malformed dicks who supported Jeffrey Epstein).
The mob is gone. He's a wannabe loser. He was born a loser, he'll surely die a loser
Hopefully sooner than later.
Packs of Hispanic males roaming the streets!
Gasp!
I saw them in Puerto Rico too when I was on vacation!!!
HOW DID YOU COPE
She stayed on the opposite side of the street.
Guns. Obviously.
😂
I can’t wait to find out! Headed to Puerto Rico early next week. Though they should probably be watching out for me… loose in the Latino Caribbean sounds like heaven to me!!! 😂🏝️⛱️
Kathleen, 😄😂 I live around “THOSE PEOPLE”. Gangs of them! Friendly & hard working. What horror!
Dear Seeking: right. How many of the scary black and brown people are productive contributors to their communities? Doing work, in many cases, that they are consigned to do because of the color of their skin. How many of the racist whiners are contributing to the economy in any way? Just complaining, blaming and stoking fears.
When I lived in downtown Chicago I had friends who invited me to attend there predominantly Black church …. Where I always felt entirely welcomed and uplifted. Can you imagine a random black person going to an all white congregation? Mist likely, the police would be called.
I rest my case.
South side represent.
Where do you live?
In northern CA.
I live in the Coachella Valley. It's Hispanic at one end and gay as Hell on the other end. We do not care. It's a great place to live. I spoke to my sister who lives in Nashville and she was complaining that she has to go to see her doctor in the "Mexican" part of town. I just laughed hysterically.
Me too!
Thx.
Chicago
Jeff, seriously, you crack me up. Your writing is helping me maintain my sanity.
Jeff deserves the Medal of Freedom for helping us to stay sane during this difficult period.
Jeff is better and more effective than mood-enhancing meds
Jeff keeps me from biting people.
THAT was on a par with the man himself!
🤪😎
😂
Me too, thank you Jeff, really... thank you 💓
That smirk...
We're dealing with the King of the Douchebags. You can't be polite with a douchebag. You can't be civil. You can't win a battle with them, so you might ad well go ahead and drop the biggest, baddest hammer you've got on them. Yeah, jail. Not house arrest, not 5 digit monetary fines (use that on Scavino), fucking Riker's.
ONLY five percent! I am shocked! Another reason he took over the RNC. I like this scenario: trump cleans the clocks of all the little down ballot losers, goes to their `paltry rallies and only whines about himself then leaves town, Letissa James cleans trump's clock due to the phony 175 million bond, trump loses the election along with hundreds of magat candidates, then with whatever family or associates he's got left, he gets on his plane splits the country for ____________ fill in the blank.
Adios fucking sundowning, misfit, diaperload traitor!
Why only 5%? Two explanations come to mind.
1. He knows he's dealing with a bunch of greedy bastards—Republicans.
2. This is the opening demand—wait till next week.
Maybe Suckabee Saunders will donate her podium money.
Or her eclipse state of emergency money
Every Republican in my lifetime (I'm 62) usually just lies about 'morality' and 'fiscal responsibility' to get elected,but the first thing they do in office is reward their wealthy donors with cabinet positions,tax breaks, pardons and deregulation.
It's at least 5%. From the letter: "Any split that is higher than 5% will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump’s campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations,"
From HCR last night: Today the Trump campaign asked Republican candidates in downballot races for at least 5% of the money they raise with any fundraising appeal that uses Trump’s name or picture. They went on: “Any split that is higher than 5% will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump’s campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”
Doesn’t this teeter on extortion?
It is extortion. The GOP have ceased to exist as a credible political party with this and ongoing support of an anti rule of law presidential candidate. MAGA can now almost be described as a criminal conspiracy.
It's a shame what's happened to the GOP. If only there had been decades worth of news coverage of Trump so they could have known who they were getting in bed with. /s
We in the NY/ NJ area have known he was a grifter POS for years….
Not really, Trump has the right to charge for using his name and image to raise funds. But, just like Trump hasn't figured out that the President serves the American people, not the other way around; he hasn't figured out that he's supposed to be helping his fellow Republicans get elected for the good of the party, not charging them for his help.
He has friends in Hungary and Russia who are eagerly awaiting his arrival
Give him back his passport,and take all the MAGAs with him.
There MIGHT be some Republican down ballot candidates who are normy Republicans and will gladly forego using Dumbass’ name and photo in their campaign pitches, thereby keeping all of their campaign money for their own campaigns.
So the Trump National Committee is fleecing down-ballot R candidates at a rate of 5%, eh? Whoever saw that coming said no one.I predict that this whole glorious organization will be in the hole before all is said and done and it couldn’t happen to a shittier group of jackals.
It’s fairly close to being in the hole already. Tfg’s legal fees are going to kill the GOP, they’ll be paying them off for years.
Bravo Victoria!
I can hear Fat Donny now ... "it would be a shame if something were to happen to your nice little campaign, wouldn't it" - just like his idol Alphonse...
1. I’m a west coast gal forever, but I’ve traveled around this country quite a bit. I’ve been to NYC a few times and you know what I’ve seen? People of all different ethnicities going about their business. It’s shocking! 🙄
2. Stephen Miller is a hobgoblin.
3. I’m not a fashion icon, I don’t read Vogue, but I know an unkempt slob when I see one (looking at you, Orange)
Plus, who the fuck wears his tie like that? Sheesh, I am hardly a fashion plate, but I know that is just a fashion felony
Having his tie dangling over his crotch, is supposedly slimming 🤣
Hiding the mushroom
🤮
Great, now I need to barf
Well, it’s not working…
I like the term they used on SNL,
TROLL NOSE 😁
Right?! Taping your tie, classy! 🙄
👍🏼
“it wasn’t suicidal enough to hitch your electoral future to a quadrice-indicted twice-impeached popular-vote-losing adderall-huffing” <— this is one of the most unhinged brilliant owns, I’ve ever read. You sir, are amazing
BREAKING NEWS: It is with a heavy heart that I must announce that grotesque pile of steaming, maggot infested fucking dog shit known as Donald J. Trump is still alive. Please respect my privacy during this difficult time. In a pseudo-related story, I assume the "J" stands for jerk off.
According to Agolf Shitler himself, the “J” stands for ‘Jenius..’
😂
The urban dictionary tells us that DJT is an acronym synonymous with "Designated Jizz Towel". Yeah, his initials are a crusty cum swab that sits next to the bed.
…….also known as Melania.
🤣
If he could find his dick…
I used to have access to an electron microscope if we are to believe Stormy Daniel's description of size ....

😆
Jeff, I'm not shitting you—you actually connected the dots on juror intimidation better than any source on Planet Earth.
You have my deepest gratitude!
it was pure luck that the juror was dismissed at the exact same moment I was writing about it. usually breaking news happens two minutes after I click "send"
You just know Donnie Shitstain is just pushing the judge to throw him in jail for contempt I'm sure he figures that it will be a fundraising bonanza PLUS a media explosions. I can see it, 'Messages from Riker's Island.'
I know the judge doesn't want to play in his hand....but couldn't he do house arrest and take away his social media? Something...anything?!
I think the ultimate punishment is home confinement with no guests in his private quarters and he can't leave same. He can have no access to social media, his own included. Basically, make his home his jail. Do it for a time limit that gradually increases until he shuts the hell up. I agree with Darryl Smith who commented "I actually expect Trump to suffer spontaneous human combustion." I can see it happening.
Please oh please oh please let spontaneous combustion happen (dropping human because in this instance there’s nothing human involved)!!! Of course I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near the pile of shit when it does combust (cause ewwww), however I will do the happiest of happy dances after it occurs.
🙏
Can't happen. He's not human.
Plastic BURNS 🔥 HOT
I said SPONTANEOUS CUMBUSTION, yesterday.
I know I've thought it!
I'm getting popcorn
We keep screaming for justice.
But there is just us.
I hate this fat fuck so much. Finish him! They’re not even trying to hide their racism. It’s sick.
