But surely those $12,000 tax cuts will trickle down to the vulnerable households so they’re probably going to be better off as well😳 (deep sarcasm here btw).

Speaker phone use in public is β€˜peak asshole’. Just stop. @georgehahn.com nails this with a powerful public decent message.

Imagine being born into all that privilege, given so many advantages and a huge head start in life, achieving the unthinkable & becoming president of the USA. But still be so bitter, so nasty, so selfish and cruel and pretend to be a victim. What a waste of possibility. It’s so sad to watch.

He’d be a joke if this misinformation wasn’t so dangerous and feeding ignorance and hatred.

Eddie Vedder takes up where Bruce left off.

We shouldn’t be surprised by just how they can go. Truly some of the worst and disgraceful people. How can anyone support or defend this family? Making jokes, while demonstrating your own stupidity, at someone else’s suffering is disgraceful. They’re sick. No class, no humility, no compassion.

Another way of saying 'not in my lane?' GSUS the responsibility dodgers are coming at us thick and fast these days.

You hope they have some reflection on their role in putting him there. Trump gave plenty of clues on how extreme he was going to be.

Does anyone actually believe what Trump says? The way he lies and just insist he’s right is embarrassing and disgraceful. Most people could not stand to have him as friend or trust him with their own money or family, because he lacks any integrity and character but still decided to vote for him.

Raskin: The lowest 100 day approval rating since polling began. He controlled the agenda. He controlled the House, the Senateβ€” he’s got everything going for him and his numbers are in the gutter
