gilding the people’s house, while citizens are floating face down in Texas and Medicaid recipients are being told they will soon be picking our vegetables in the fields

Roll tumbrels.

He misunderstood the metaphor, so now he's gilding everything in sight.

He could greatly improve the appearance of any room by leaving it.

Priceless, FalloutShelter!!! LOVE it!!!

Mericans sticking with their team and they're bringing their kids up supporting the same team, no matter how many games and seasons they lose. They don't pay attention to this stuff or care. Only way they ditch it is if the team shuts down or moves to another city. So this menace either has to shut down or move to Moscow.

Please???? And soon????

are not the same, and neither are their members, so I don't think the behavior seen in Trump supporters can be extended to 'Americans' in general. American Democrats, by and large, are not the unthinking, unquestioning "loyalists" you seem to describe.

I did not say we did.

They literally have flags and banners and hats and coins and and and etc.. My point is they are unwavering in support of the team they chose. They see everyone else as the other team and they want to own us no matter what it costs them and are willing to endure just about anything. And the GOP uses that team mentality to do whatever it wants. They will still fill their stands with folks wearing cheese hats regardless of how awful they are.

On edit, yeah I said Americans. Editing to mericans.

but using the term 'Americans' turns "they" into "we", so I'm afraid you did, purposely or not, include all of us in your description, the cute little "edit" notwithstanding.

Goosestepping & running their mouths without ever uttering anything of merit are their only "skilks."

"American Democrats, by and large, are not the unthinking, unquestioning "loyalists" you seem to describe."

Sometimes I wish we were a little more loyal to our 'team'.

I think it is good we are willing to criticize and even expel those that do actual illegal and immoral things - Bob Menedez and Eric Adams come to mind recently.

But I think some Democrats are too anxious to hold our politicians to possibly unreasonable standards or turn against them for a single error or compromise. For me Al Frankin and Gavin Newsom fall in this category. I know not everyone will agree.

And I turn on Democrats too. I voted for John Fetterman. I don't regret the vote, because Oz was the other choice and he would have been worse. But Fetterman has been a real disappointment to me.

Critical examination and holding our elected officials, regardless of party, to high standards is ultimately a good thing.

But it isn't as successful a political strategy as blind loyalty.

I wonder if there's a way to find an ethical, effective, happy medium?

Or maybe I'm just grumpy today.

Then they will promote the ever loving piss out of it during the news.

He rambled on like a three year old who's been caught with his hand in the cookie jar thinking that everyone is going to forget about the Epstein files.

I see he decided to go with the gold theme for his tie. He's one sick mfer.

where his babysitters, sychophants, and other enablers can't hide it any longer. Yesterday, at his presser, his answers to very pertinent questions were consistently, "I don't know." He no longer has a grasp on what's going on in his own administration.

Or shoe shopping while New Orleans drowned. Or reading My Pet Goat while the Twin Towers collapsed.

He is so out of touch. Americans are drowning in Texas, getting kicked out of nursing homes, getting rounded up like cattle and unable to find jobs all the while the pervert president is wondering about getting that special "gold" look on the woodwork.

People, especially magas, are just now paying more attention because stuff is not just affecting them dam libruls, it's affecting them. And like that lady interviewed some years ago, magas are crying some variation of her "he's hurting the wrong people" as the universal clue by four hits them upside the head and their pea brains begin to dimly understand the consequences of their vote for the idjit.

Seriously, an inventory would be prudent.
It's one thing he never mentions even though he's obsessed with it.

The corporate media doesn't care

The cult doesn't care

the dotard said, to talk of many things
like what the word skedaddle means
and golden painted rings

Rats, at least serve a useful purpose.
The idjit, not so much.

Nasty critters.

Some things never change.

It’s a “thing” with him, isn’t it. “LOTS of gold! The more, the better! Makes me look like a king, doesn’t it!”

Well, Jake Tapper is waiting for when Trump is out of office to release his book.

It was a cabinet kiss up and presser. Actual meetings do not have the press in attendence.

Terrific label for it, pfitz59!

Fuck them all.

Well Jake, his personality has cognitive issues.

Goddess help us all.

... has been updated to "While trump drooled".

The rest of the world said goodbye US of A.

We will try all we can to save life for future generations on this planet without him (and you) because your system is a dangerous lie: It has been proven to be unreliable every four or eight years.

Wow. Just wow.

…while that was going on, and I saw the clowns looking up at the ceiling while Trump was pointing something out up there. I thought WTF??? Now I know.

I'm not sure if it was any worse than this, though:

when will HIS doctor be grilled?

I just don't understand how THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED FUCKING STATES can be this obviously impaired with so little attention being paid to it by most of the major media. Or rather, I don't understand how the media, not to mention the entire GOP portion of the U.S. Congress, can still be so terrified of a doddering old man who probably needs help tying his own shoes these days that they are still willing to dance to whatever tune he decides to play. It's just ludicrous!

or a real incorruptible doctor?

I told him, that's because he is a REAL doctor, not some GOP quack.

...mental status? What's wrong with this picture? JFC!
