It is week two of the Siege of Portland, and still these barbarians will not yield to our troops. We have severed the cords of their latte machines but they are making cowboy coffee in their camps, where loud ukulele songs of resistance even now drift in on the breeze.
While the senile old man rides in carriages around castles, builds his ballroom, puts gold on everything, plans parades, attends a variety of sporting events, threatens people, and reads the scripts put in front of him, this psychopath is the one actually running the country.

The tariff money is in the US Treasury, not a Trump slush fund.
Congress has to appropriate taxpayer dollars to put farmers on welfare.
Although Trump should pay it out of his crypto profits since he caused it.

Compassion for the family does not mean sainthood for the father. Mourning does not mean whitewashing the movement he built.

Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe.
And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.
Interesting Concept. Hmmmmm? π€π€π€
