“buying cheap goods is not a real prosperity”. -Kudlow

And Groceries, to Donald tRump, is an old fashioned word. Yes, Americans being able to afford groceries will soon become something from a bygone era. Now *that* will be fun to explain to today’s rally-goers!

Zito, Anthony's avatar

He chose the adjective 'cheap' carefully. Being able to buy *inexpensive* goods is a different matter.

In the meantime, "Nincompoop. It's a lovely old-fashioned word. It means a head full of different things, unconnected and untrue things. You should be glad to have at least one in the White House."

I think me that there are more than just one!

Wish I could, but every rally in a 50 mile radius of me has hit its registrant maximum, so I will be rallying via Zoom!

Denise Donaldson's avatar

Sounds like a good problem to have, Cyndi. Very encouraging that all the nearby rallies are full up.

Cyndi's avatar

Yup. Very proud of my community! And of this community, too!

Terri Nighswonger's avatar

I can’t believe that !! All can come no matter.

Terri Nighswonger's avatar

Cindy something is wrong with that. You go. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🥳👍

Ole Anderson's avatar

How Can an outdoor rally be ‘full’? Get up off yer Butt- if you are physically able- and Get Out there!

I’m 75 and I just got back from a rally in downtown West Palm Beach. I made my own Large sign:

trump will

Bankrupt

America with his

Bitcoin

Scam!!

I know it will make No difference to the orange shit stain no matter how many take to the streets but I have always believed that if you don’t get off your ass and Do Something then you can’t complain about the way things are.

Joanne Filipo's avatar

Who registers for a protest? Just show up!

Bonnie Council's avatar

Actually you don’t have to register to go. Just go. No one’s going to run you off. They just want people to register so they can estimate crowd size & check with you later for your comments.

michellefromchicago's avatar

Feel free to show up at future rallies anyway. There are always people who sign up and then can't make it. And unless the rally is indoors, the sky's the limit, really, as far as # of attendees. Good that you could Zoom rally, though!

There's a Hands-Off: San Francisco Fights Back march today starting at 1 pm at Civic Center Plaza, with separate but related demonstrations at Tesla dealerships in SF, Berkeley, Corte Madera and other places in the Bay Area. More later...

Nancy's avatar

Good turnout at the Mount Kisco, NY rally this morning -- probably about 2,000 people in a very small park by the train station. Lots of enthusiasm and adeptly run by the Communication Workers of America. I was glad to be there.

Ole Anderson's avatar

That’s my Union here in Palm Beach , I am proud to say!

Bonnie Council's avatar

I was there! Did you see me? 🤣

michellefromchicago's avatar

We sure could've used better comms at the rally in Evanston today!

MARY's avatar

Me..........In Boise. Grew up a hippie in the 60's and 70's but it's my first. Hands Off website instructs protesters to bring no weapons, wonder if the inevitable Proud Boy counter protesters got the message?

On a brighter note, Bernie's doing a rally here April 14

arne link's avatar

Idaho? Hands off in Idaho? Please be safe out there.

MARY's avatar

Thank you !

Ended up with a militia type at my side with a holstered gun. Then chose to leave but attended for 2 hr. Crickets from our newspaper

Todd Kielman's avatar

Hendersonville NC had a fantastic turnout for the 4/5 demonstration.

As new transplants from Chicago we were not confident that there was a progressive element hereabouts. Pleasantly surprised. Great signs and enthusiastic crowds crowded Main Street and brought the people's message loud and clear. There may be hope here after all. Lots of old hippies and protesters present, and thankfully youth turned out in numbers.

At 63 yrs old. I'm hopeful for some progress after the massive fuckery of this recent administration. Sing, clap and voice your dissent.

As Joice Vance shouts to the rafters, We're in this together!

Lucinda Abra's avatar

I'm just back from a small but loud Saugerties protest. There were great signs, fantastic costumes (Uncle San and Ben Franklin), and very engaged, friendly folks. So many cars drove by, honking in agreement. It was raining, but I figured if Cory Booker could do what he did, I could stand up for democracy and get a bit damp. It seems lots of others did, too!

Maui Wahine's avatar

Out here in the middle of the Pacific Ocean our Hawaii protests at 4:00 pm HI time will probably be the last (unless there are protests on Guam) but we will post when we are done!

Kathleen Hoiseth's avatar

Minnesota is Hot~Hot~Hot!!!! Check out this video from the Minnesota Capitol that was filmed earlier today, and notice that people were still arriving. I totally wish I could have been there but I'm out of town. So proud to see this and there are many smaller ones throughout the state!!! https://www.fox9.com/video/1620288

David Betz's avatar

We had 200-300 people gather around the rotary in downtown Hudson, MA.

Terri Nighswonger's avatar

Will do!!!!!! Poster ready. Says HANDS OFF OUR CONSTITUTION!

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🥳👍

Susan MacNeil, PhD's avatar

Kingston, NY huge crowd.

BayPoodle's avatar

I’m told the demonstration in Providence RI is giant. I will be at one further south in the state in a couple hours. Hope the rain doesn’t slow things down!

Mary Beth Horsington's avatar

I took part in the Syracuse NY rally of more than 4,000 protesters. It was wonderful. I went to one a few weeks ago that seemed to be mostly older folks, but this one had kids, teenagers, college students and lots of old people like me. I pray we can make a difference…

Susan Keefer's avatar

Good luck to everyone protesting today for Hands Off!! 👍🇺🇸💙

There are multiple protests in and around my MAGAt Red City. 👏👏👏👏👏

HI2thDoc's avatar

It would be great if Greenlanders and Panamanians showed up to tell President Putinsbitch to keep his greasy hands off of them!

Really, where are your manners ????? " Comrade Trump "

Mary Hall's avatar

"President Putinsbitch" has landed on my long list of T💩p monikers. Thank you for your contribution!

HI2thDoc's avatar

Let’s make it a thing. I’m sure he’ll hate it. Good

Terri Nighswonger's avatar

Love President’s Putinsbitch!!!!!!!🩷🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍🥳

HI2thDoc's avatar

Use it and propagate it👍🏼

MzNicky in East Jesus, TN's avatar

We’re expecting a huge crowd here in East Jesus!

Susan Keefer's avatar

I think it’s incredible that East Jesus is turning out for Hands Off!! 😍💙

Altamama2's avatar

There really is such a place??

MzNicky in East Jesus, TN's avatar

LOL

It’s the description I use for all of East Tennessee.

I wonder when the last time was that he ate anything considered a grocery item. I myself was telling the wife the other day, but honey, greasy fast food burgers and KFC are kinda like food, so don't that make um at least grocery-adjacent?

Deborah Arapa's avatar

At this point I consider his consumption of greasy fried fast food sacraments to our future. Pleased for him to help himself to seconds etc.

HI2thDoc's avatar

C'mon, cholesterol!!!

Mary Hall's avatar

At this point, it's our best hope out of this shitstorm.

Sooz Hall's avatar

Just remember who is his replacement. And who is that fellow’s replacement…

Ole Anderson's avatar

Donnie Two Scoops always wants more. Give him all he wants, night or day. Until his fat clogged arteries explode like one of skippy the dipshit’s rockets.

Susan Niemann's avatar

After all this, if America continues to elect these supremely stupid and cruel idiots, then there is literally no hope. That fuck from Texas...do his constituents REALLY want to be under Nazi rule?

What does it take for people to see that Mike "The Cross" Lindell is not a serious person?

AND BANKS? Fuck that guy. 🖕

I know how we got here...but it's getting back to some semblance of decency that will be our challenge.

Sharon Hudnall's avatar

The cult of MAGA/Trump bubbled up from the national cult of celebrity. Millions of nobodies identify with screen images. It created the "imperial presidency," maybe starting with the fantasy of Camelot and growing darker and larger through Nixon, Reagan, Bush I & II, and now Fuckface. The media hated Carter because he wasn't playing that game.

Denise Donaldson's avatar

Very perceptive, Sharon. I think you have a great point here.

Ole Anderson's avatar

She usually does. A great commentator.

Sharon Hudnall's avatar

Too kind but appreciated, Ole!

Terri Nighswonger's avatar

Yes. 🙌 think the MAGA stuff came from people who were nothings in THEIR mind and it morphed into their insecurities. They began to invision being a somebody without the accoutrements of a real valuable person and the rocket went off.

The intelligence compassion caring is completely absent from these self styled clowns. 🤡 they have NO ability to reason, balance issues form intelligent conclusions.

Mike Lyndell from my State better watch out because Inector clousau is hot on the finding any facts stage. He just ran for VP so I don’t think there was any due diligence done yet so he’s going have announcements when he finds one. I’m so pleased to see he is going to quit huffing Crack so he can rush to a hot mic and inform us because I don’t know of any lies and I need to learn from this Oracle.

Susan Niemann's avatar

HAHAH!! I think all his addiction years have finally caught up with him.

Charles Austin's avatar

I think he fell off the wagon. Now that he pissed away his business he may go the Walter White route.😂😂

Susan Niemann's avatar

LOL!! I could see that. Mike is a damaged soul.

Ole Anderson's avatar

I’m almost starting to feel sorry for the slimy rat bastard. Don’t know why.

Denise Donaldson's avatar

"After all this...."

I'm truly glad you can see daylight past "all this," Susan, because for the first time in my life, I can't see past a disaster, and I've been through plenty of them.

Agree completely with your comments about the fuck from Texas, Lindell, and Banks.

Neal Stiffelman's avatar

It’s a target-rich environment for stupid, for obsequious, for racists pining for death camps, for wife-beaters and whore mongers, armed robbers, bribe-takers and their bagmen. I’m old enough to have seen the numbers on the arms of women and men in my congregation when I was a boy. I’m willing to put EVERYTHING on the line to drive those monsters into the ocean. And I reckons there’s a lot of us, all around the world. Even penguins. United We Fucking Stand.

arne link's avatar

I saw the tattoos when I was young. I also went to school with kids whose limbs were withered by polio. Not going back to those horrible times. No!

longtimebirdwatcher's avatar

I went to school at the same time as both of you. You don't forget.

“dilapidated old toad”

I just snorted my coffee out my nose…and thank you!!😃

And wait a minute…

Look at the picture to the right over the door.

It looks to me like the picture taken right after his right ear was pierced. With, of course, the We The People from that Constitution thingy he’s always shitting on.

Shit like that is why Jesus’s middle name is fucking.

Jeff Tiedrich's avatar

Donny looks exactly like a toad in that photo

Liz and Max the No. 1 Cat's avatar

The standard old man custom of wearing your pants so that the waistline is practically under your arm pits. Of course, he can't put the belt where it's supposed to go or his stomach would fall over it and you could see how fat he is. To be clear, I'm an overweight old woman (not quite as old as Donny), but I think I dress better than that. To hide my stomach, I tend to wear loose tops that come down to my hips.

longtimebirdwatcher's avatar

You know, some Saudi gown would be fine for him.

Sooz Hall's avatar

With gold ankle bracelets. With locks on them…

Liz and Max the No. 1 Cat's avatar

Oh God, remember when those were all the rage? Sometimes called Caftans. Elizabeth Taylor was particularly fond of them.

Jeff, please issue a warning ⚠️ before posting that image of grandpa befuddled pants, with those trousers pulled up to his man boobs🤮🤮🤮 Hell of a way to begin my Saturday morning, coffee is all over my keyboard… my oh my😱

Jan Moon's avatar

Well, that photo has it's uses. It's a reminder that, no matter how terrifying the horror movie I'm watching, the real horror is out there wrecking my country and I'd better get off my ass and do something about it.

HI2thDoc's avatar

I guess the old fart was hoping to use his belt as a manssiere

Ole Anderson's avatar

Why aren’t you out on the course, Fredo?

We are always hungry for your news from Maggat land.

Fastball Fredo's avatar

With the high cost of golf I usually play once a week, my social security is very limited.

Ole Anderson's avatar

I can sympathize with that.

Kay-El's avatar

You know, I’m not really against people quoting Goebbels and other Nazis. It makes easier to identify the assholes if they haven’t outed themselves already. 🖕🏼🖕🏼🖕🏼

🌷IntheHalloftheMtnKing's avatar

It's the zero shame part. 🤮

Douglas Paul Truhlar's avatar

I can tell they’ve been reading but isn’t that out ruled now? Note I said rule not law they won’t burn Nazi writings.

Krista Allen's avatar

Yeah, seeing my Member of Congress on this list reminds me why I’m protesting today. 🤬

Jeff Tiedrich's avatar

you have my sympathies. which one is yours?

Krista Allen's avatar

Goebbel-quoting Keith Self. Judging by the size of the protests by Collin County Democrats and other pissed-off constituents, we may be able to vote him out next time!

Charles Austin's avatar

Good. Then drag him behind a pickup truck.

Krista Allen's avatar

No. Advocating violence has no place in our society. He is a terrible representative but he is still a person, and we’re not monsters.

longtimebirdwatcher's avatar

It's okay Charles, I think monster thoughts too.

Fascinating how many in Trump's orbit have nostalgia and enthusiam for an abusive parent. "My dad beat me senseless and look! Now I'm Mel Gibson!" There aren't enough shrinks on the planet to fix these nuts, not that they think anything's wrong with them.

Did Senator Banks forget about all the federal employees at the Defense Finance and Accounting Service's location in Indianapolis, INDIANA? I'm sure they appreciate his attitude toward feds.

HI2thDoc's avatar

With the whole universe of MAGA morons, it's ready, fire, aim. I hope he loses the next time

Zija Pulp's avatar

What gets me about Larry Kudlow saying that buying cheap goods isn’t prosperity is that when all these deals were being made to bring democracy to communist countries, they were rah-rahing all these cheap goods, as Mom and Pop stores were going out of business. All they’ve ever cared about are their own wallets and portfolios. Prosperity is for the one percent only.

Kim Nesvig's avatar

Kudlow might just as well have said, if you peasants can no longer afford it, you’ll just have to do without it.

HI2thDoc's avatar

He likes to play at being an economist, but he's just a MAGA stooge. Like Nutlick, Bessent, Navarro, all of em spouting obvious lies about the tariffs and the looming recession (which they claim is not a real thing.)

Dave Drell's avatar

Yeah he’s pretty much a putz- even when he had his show with Cramer, years ago, I don’t like his arrogance.

Ole Anderson's avatar

Im just hoping for a hard landing for all these ass kissers , all of whom should know better. Except for Miller, I don’t know which loose gears account for whatever the Fuvk he is but he’s evil incarnate

HI2thDoc's avatar

Many suspect he is an Undead

Douglas Paul Truhlar's avatar

He’s the most outdated and Laffer Curve theorist left, pretending to know how the markets work: buffoon.

Charles Austin's avatar

And an alcohol and drug addled buffoon at that.

HI2thDoc's avatar

Multiple marriages and substance issues (including Adderall and Diet Coke) are de rigueur in MAGA world

Ole Anderson's avatar

Even a hard core Maggat bitch can only put up with so much. And she wants a proper canoodling after not getting any for so long. I can’t imagine any of these pricks are any kind of a Lothsrio.

Musk is ready to rush-to-market his TESLA Bot Gen 3 robots and other AI crap, so who needs human labor? With the Dept. of Education trashed, he'll need more H1-B guest workers from India to manufacture and operate his products. He is not a cognitively functioning genius, just an Assburger.

Pillow man looking for new ways to diminish his bank account, have at it. He must figure it will give him at least the visibility from which to fling his batshit conspiracy theories.

Jeff Tiedrich's avatar

social media consensus seems to be the Mike is running so he can embezzle from his campaign donations and live large off that

There's enough folk out there to give him a campaign donation? Eegads, it's worse than I already knew...gack

I always forget the underbelly of Rs thinking, of course it’s not a run for office.

Why not. The rest of them do. It's a lifestyle.

A standard MAGA trick. He better watch out his campaign isn't Parscaled, haha
