There has never been a bigger parasite on this planet than Donald Trump.

Tom Joseph @tomjchicago.bsky.social · Aug 25

Trump is mentally crawling around on all fours with one rote thought- create a daily shitstorm for headlines that distract people from his Epstein coverup. It doesn't matter if it's bad news or unpopular coverage bc what he most wants is eyeballs off his Epstein crimes.

What's in the Epstein files is apparently so bad for Trump that he's now going full "looking for the real killer" and about to pardon the only living person who actually helped run Jeff's teenage girl wurlitzer. Worth noting GM not only procured but also sexually abused the girls herself.

Trump lied about signing a trade deal with China. It was another fabrication from the dementia fantasy world he lives in. He needs to do 89 deals in the next 4 days, by Tuesday July 1, to keep his promise of “90 deals in 90 days.” Hold him accountable for his continuous failures.

They know. Maga has gone silent after pounding the table to see the Epstein evidence. They know Trump is all over Epstein evidence that’s being withheld or disposed of, in order to cover up for him. They are making an evil choice to protect Trump, in full public view.

Convicted felon, Donald Trump, who is currently under criminal indictment in Fulton County, GA is a loser who will lose again when the courts stop his illegal attempt to ban visas for Harvard students. It’s extortion, it’s restraint of trade, it’s discriminatory and it’s impeachable.

Trump‘s incompetence, lack of preparation and winging it- highlighted in this great article by Tom Friedman.

Trump deleted this post bc he got called out for sucking up to Putin.

“the attack on Russia’s docked airplanes.“

“Putin did say, and very strongly..”

Trump, acting like Putin‘s public image fluffer, then shows how Putin plays him by offering “help” in Iran negotiations. Weak.

Trump remains under criminal indictment in Fulton County, GA w/ 14 co-defendants for attempting to overturn the 2020 election. The Georgia Supreme Court is deciding whether to allow DA Fani Willis to continue on the case. When he was booked, Trump listed his hair color as “strawberry blond.”

Trump and 14 codefendants remain under criminal indictment in the Fulton County GA RICO case for attempting to overturn the 2020 election. The GA Supreme Court is weighing whether to allow DA Fani Willis to remain on the case. Trump can be prosecuted in GA when he leaves office.

Something is really off when Bongino, Patel and Bondi discuss the Epstein evidence- they act visibly nervous. Why? It's like they are cautiously speaking to avoid letting the cat out of the bag. How big is the circle of people who know Trump appears in the Epstein video evidence?

Trump and his stupid supporters have been completely humiliated by the unanimous decision of the US court of International Trade invalidating his illegal tariffs. The 3 person court, comprising Reagan, Obama & Trump appointees wrote a powerful decision, crushing Trump’s behavior.

Trump is a dementia decayed sociopath and traitor. He is only a hero to stupid or corrupt people.

In his first 4 months, Trump has already committed numerous crimes outside of his “official duties.” America will go down a notch every day until we remove the dementia, ridden sociopath and his enablers from the WH.

Trump has caused irreparable damage w/ his unprepared, incompetent tariff disaster. People lost jobs. They sold assets they would never sell. The US is tarnished as unstable. Our adversaries now know our weak spots and where we cave. All bc cowards won't face up to Trump's dementia.

To President Zelensky- Putin can’t be trusted. HE asked for the Thursday meeting. He wants you to expose yourself. Rewatch the Godfather or Game of Thrones season 1, ep 7. Make sure he and his bodyguards are searched. Stay 10 feet away from him. Don’t shake his hand.

Congress must remove Trump's tariff authority bc he has completely abused it through incompetence, favoritism, corruption and extortion. Ending Trump's tariff nonsense probably requires Dems taking the House at mid-terms.

DEMENTIA ALERT- Trump is now “ordering” the “reopening of a substantially enlarged and rebuilt ALCATRAZ.” As usual, he will be ridiculed for airing his delusions and fantasies. More and more people are seeing how mentally ill Trump is.

Only an extremely mentally impaired person, with the title of President, would post a picture of themselves as the Pope while the world is mourning the loss of the last Pope. Dementia didn’t make Trump a bad person. He’s a bad person who got dementia.

BREAKING- Photo (via Reuters) of Mike Waltz checking Signal during yesterday’s cabinet meeting. Look at the names & dates. They’re still using it. The most incompetent & arrogant cabinet ever assembled.

Mike Waltz is out as National Security Advisor after only 100 days. Who’s the dumb fuck who hired him?

Trump‘s cabinet is like a bad acting troupe as they take turns lying about their accomplishments and kissing his ass.
