It would be refreshing if someone in TrumpWorld admitted they were wrong but the unqualified losers he's appointed follow the lead of the master.

If you're keeping score at home, in Trump's America the 2nd Amendment (like the 1st, 4th, 5th, 8th, and 14th) only applies to his supporters.

My favorite Trump response is to claim victory after he gets his ass handed to him. We’re about to see that in regard to Greenland. Or Iceland.

Great to see the diaper-filler-in-chief embarrass us on the world stage. Eighty years of American leadership flushed down the golden toilet by the biggest turd of all.

The MAGA creed:

The economy is in the tank.
We're the laughingstock of the world.
We're destroying all alliances.
But we're causing the suffering of people of color and our political enemies, so all is well!
