No need for apology for a double post, just delete.

But now, with this post, no need to delete it, since other posts are tied to it.

... but ... if you do decide to delete this case of double post, I may notice and delete this post.

It's all good.

done it recently because I got an error message after I posted so I did it again. I have sympathy for double posters.

Disclaimer: if Josh deletes and you delete then I will delete.

Also, there are people who deliberately double, triple post under different headings which makes a quandary for me not knowing which post to click on.

... from courts kicking his ass first and by the electorate (I'm not certain, but I am confident). But your point behind is good.

To some extent, tRump does play a bumbling dope, to rope in "the poorly educated, we love the poorly educated". Even so, he does affect a folksy style even in business-like settings, such as recorded at Bedminster meeting with Meadows biographer/ghostwriter. I think it is less an affectation or a charm technique and more a function of his long-standing simple-mindedness.

But blaming Biden for WW2 is the rump showing his own senescence.

I no longer read the NY Times, Washington Post or the Los Angeles Times.

You still have some very fine writers working at those newspapers, however for the most part you have a bunch of greedy for ad dollars, looks and clicks mostly corporate, right-winged media and editorial boards. Most really don't believe that tRump would come after them. So I guess it's why they kiss his nasty, smelly ass and may start yelling 'Heil Hitler' and 'Heil Trump' to him, then bow down and kiss his nasty ass. Like he wouldn't chuck the likes of Mrs. Greenspan out of a window if she crossed him? She was too busy calling Joe Biden too old a while back. Not sure if she still does, but uh her ass is OLD and needs to retire like yesterday. I have friends from overseas and they catch some of the US media politics broadcasts from time to time and they all ask me why the US media likes tRump so much, and won't speak for truth with Biden. tRump, he tried to destroy your country by making it fascist. It's difficult to explain to them because they don't get the nuances of it all, you know? I only watch broadcasts and podcasts of the people who I agree with, full stop. I'm not going to subject myself to high-paid, half ass, tRump butt kissing folks who have shows that promote or cape for tRaitor tRump. Oh Lord, and TYT and Cenk Uygur I have a few friends who still try to stomach those pieces of ass over there on TYT--the FAAAAR Leftists who are almost around the bend and touching the Faaaaar reich-winged whacked out MAGGOTS.

... though it does not neglect its UK roots.

It seems to have more direct reporting; more overtly truthful in headlines and such; less need to read an article to remove murkiness of headlines.

He's always visibly addled and says stupid, random, things. The massive cognitive imparements have been obvious for a while.

Also, I'm tired of these podcasts exaggerated click-bait headlines. Usually skip them, especially this guy.

I could hear them cheering and booing in all three right places in the clip avenue Meiselas played. They were lapping it up.

He may be experiencing cognitive impairment, no doubt, but that doesn’t stop him from blasting full speed ahead, conning, lying and cheating and unfortunately, since he’s good at all three, he shifts to those areas and weaves things together for stupid naïve people to make it seem normal.

He loves doing those three evil things because he loves fucking people over. He enjoys it. Aren’t we lucky to have an awful person like this who was President of the United States and he’s doing everything he can to have another bite of the apple.
