The State of Complaints

Presidential Nominee Complaints Democrats: "Trump's a rapist!" Republicans: "Oh yeah? Well, Kamala's a tough boss!" Democrats: "Trump's a fraud!" Republicans: "That's nothing! Kamala once dated Montel Williams!" Democrats: "Trump's a felon!" Republicans: "Oh, stop! Kamala was too hard on criminals!" Vice Presidential Nominee Complaints Democrats: "JD Vance is a sexist!"

Democrats: "Vance is a phony!" Republicans: "Walz served this country!" #MAGACultMorons #VoteKamalaHarrisAndTimWalz2024ToSaveAmerica

Panic At the Sh*tshow

Whether it's just a strategy to temper expectations or goes beyond that, I've repeatedly witnessed Democrats, progressives, and liberals say, "Tuesday night's debate is going to be a disaster. Trump gets away with everything. Harris will get destroyed. We have no chance. It's over." I can understand the Harris team playing games with the media, in order to temper expectations, but please, stop being so doom and gloom. Things are going to be okay after Tuesday night. Know how I know this? Because... 1) No Tempers on the Temper: Donald Trump's fuse is shorter than the reported mini-mushroom in his pants. Optically there's a stark difference between a 78-year-old white-trying-to-be-an-orange man behaving like an a$$hole to a fellow older white man, and said 78-year-old being an a$$hole to a 59-year-old black woman. 2) Low-Bar Joe: I love President Biden, but the main reason why he dropped out of the race was his poor debate performance. Biden-leaners, T

Trump Talks Childcare

In a recent Q&A session at the Economic Club of New York, Donald Trump engaged in the following back and forth. QUESTION: "If you win in November, can you commit to prioritizing legislation to make child care affordable? And if so, what specific piece of legislation will you advance?" TRUMP: "Well, I would do that, and we're sitting down. You know, I was somebody - we had, Senator Marco Rubio, and my daughter Ivanka, was so impactful on that issue. It's a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I'm talking about - that, because look, child care is child care, couldn't - you know, there's something - you have to have it in this country. You have to have it. But when you talk about those numbers, compared to the kind of numbers that I'm talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they're not used to. But they'll get used to it very quickly. And it's not going to stop them from doing b

The Top Ten Donald Trump Word Salads (He actually said these things…)

The Top Ten Donald Trump Word Salads (He actually said these things…) 10. “By the way, they never report the crowd on January 6th. You know, Nikki Haley, Nikki Haley, Nikki Haley, you know they, do you know they destroyed all of the information, all of the evidence, everything, deleted and destroyed all of it. All of it because of lots of things, like Nikki Haley is in charge of security. We offered her 10,000 people. Soldiers, National Guards, whatever they want. They turned it down.” 9. “We have a man who is totally corrupt and the worst president in the history of our country, who is cognitively impaired, in no condition to lead, and is now in charge of dealing with Russia and possible nuclear war. Just think of it. We would be in World War Two very quickly if we’re going to be relying on this man, and far more devastating than any war. There will never be a war if that happens— there will never be a war like this. It will obliterate everything there is, everybody, it will

Why are you voting for Donald Trump?

Why are you voting for Donald Trump?   “Because he’s one of the greatest businessmen in history and the country needs to be run like one of his billions of successful businesses!” False. Donald Trump basically got started with his business career through inheriting $413 million from his father, after his passing, which he had made via fraud and tax evasion. What did he do with this money? Well, he bankrupted 6 companies (thus far). As reported by John Cassidy of the New Yorker: “Based on Internal Revenue Service transcripts of Trump’s tax returns from 1985 to 1994, the Times report said that Trump’s core businesses racked up losses of more than a billion dollars in a ten-year period. During 1990 and 1991, the story said, Trump’s losses were so large that they ‘were more than double those of the nearest taxpayers in the I.R.S. information for those years.’” He added: “They show that, between 1985 and 1989, a period when the economy was forging ahead and Trump was busy po
