Jim,

Speaking of smug, you speak as though you have some inside channel

to political accuracy, a unique insider to the truth.. (sound familiar?)

Where do YOU get your news, as you seem only to parrot banal right wing Q talking points.

Yes of course all media has a bias as they sell us their product - advertising.

I’m not interested in debating your boy Trump, as by now it’s obvious he is a grand

grifter and a con man.  He liberated us from what ?  Decency? Honesty? 

Moral Integrity? Diplomacy?

The man is morally bankrupt, likely financially bankrupt (again) and bereft of any notion 

other than tearing things down that have been crafted by decades of bipartisanship,

and compromise.

This also applies to his clown car sycophants that know nothing of legislating,

or serving their constituents in any meaningful way beyond obstruction, and slander.

He is a convicted sex offender (rapist) convicted of fraud, stealing classified documents,

voter fraud, and insurrection - much remaining on the docket - and all by his own actions.. No left wing conspiracy required!  All this congruent with his early adult career going way back.

His outstanding security bills owed to small towns mirrors his history of stiffing contractors out of wages, and constant non stop lying. His modus is to sue, or counter sue, and delay.

His teacher was closeted attorney Roy Cohen, assistant to Joe McCarthy.

Yes, a troubling thing is his popular following - his base.  Based on what? 

Hate speech and disinformation. What did he ever accomplish beside breeding more hate,

destroying  a woman’s right to decide medical decisions, wanting to pull

out of NAFTA, giving Putin full access to plunder.  His best buddies are all despots. 

The Iranians free to pursue nuclear weapons as he sabotaged a long sought agreement.

Slashed taxes for the wealthy and corporations (ballooning the deficit ) slashed critical environmental regulations, endangered species list  along with popular social benefits.

He created NOTHING.

Most of his previous cabinet do not endorse him - including his vice president.

He made millions under his presidency as he steered foreign diplomats and secret service 

agents to his properties to pay exorbitant fees. He appoints cronies to head and destroy agencies, placed his children in positions of power with no experience, his son in law 

somehow getting billions of dollars from the Saudis to play with, his daughter in law now in charge of skimming all republican proceeds for his legal bills…

Though many Republicans (to keep friendly with his base) “support” him, talk ill of him 

behind his back.  BTW.  Myorkas impeachment was acquitted in the (bipartisan) senate because the actions by the House was a frivolous joke.  A republican bipartisan immigration bill that was created and endorsed by many - (border patrol, among others) giving big resources to the border To help solve a complex many decades old immigration problem. This was shelved, not allowed to come to a popular vote by the republican speaker of house. Why?

Because trump said to kill it so he could campaign and say Biden is negligent at the border.

Shall we talk about the republicans refusal to allow Obama to fill a supreme court  vacancy

well within his rights as a president? Trump appoints two justices who lied that

they would not alter Roe v Wade to maintain sane reproductive and abortion laws….

He lost the last election by 7 million votes.  He has maintained a rigged election tho over 60 cases have been dismissed by lack of any evidence of this. His mode is to lie enough times that someone may believe him eventually.  Shall we talk about his covid response?

It didn’t exist. He is a guilty loser and a fraud. A 1st class asshole.

I could easily go on - but yes, of course Trump is a real phenomenon… a liberator as you say.

I’ll be voting in November, not sure about you.

Rod.
