and yes, I wonder what his next cruel deflection will be? A nuke on Iran? a nuke on one of our blue states? He's already withholding recovery money from four blue states. Demanding his masked boot stompers start shooting protestors on sight? Shutting down Medicare and Social Security? Moving "his" stuff back to Mar a lago and taking a wrecking ball to OUR White House? There are so many ways to be cruel when you're a sadist like him, and he's been made SO mad and humiliated in such an openly public way! Seriously, I do worry how this will play out on all of us... altho I salute E. Jean... it took courage and stamina to do what so few men have had the fortitude to do -- stand up to him and not back down!
