A 75 IQ mixed in with a heavy drinker is not a good combination for president.
She’s history. Did anyone actually pay to listen to her babble? The Dems are toast. They just don’t matter anymore, their shtick hating on Trumps voters children has played out.
In which Trump tries to turn the blame for the DNC hack away from his beloved benefactor Vladimir and Russia. He's f'd in the head. Lying to the American people over and over and over and of course defending Russia.

CBS publishes an interview from April 29 in which President Trump suggests that China may have been responsible for the 2016 Democratic National Committee email leak.[162]
Trump 1 Scandal Blotter
In which we remember how openly Trump has always solicited and accepted bribes, esp from foreigners. Shame on Republicans for looking the other way. This continues to this day, but on a vastly larger scale, with trump accepting bribes via many paths, including his crypto scam.
Just one more way trump slashes and burns the Constitution. Reminder:
The emoluments clause of the US Constitution prohibits federal officeholders from receiving gifts, payments, or other things of value from foreign states or their rulers.

The Trump international Hotel in Washington D.C. receives $30,000 from a Turkish interest group.
Trump 1 Scandal Blotter
In which we see the inklings of how Trump would eliminate checks and balances over his years in office, declaring congress basically null and void and edging toward ignoring the courts when they balance his power. No major laws have been passed, but we've had radical change in our country - all by executive orders. That's Trump eliminating congress as a check or balance on his power.
He's just not a fan of the concept of a constitutional democratic republic, boys. He's a dictator and will spend all his time in office eroding checks and balances trying to create a monarchy in America.

The president refers to the separation of powers as an "archaic" system

list of trump family projects profiting off the presidency. No shame. Absolutely no shame.
And you idiots think the son selling some paintings was beyond the pale.
remember, trump is getting richer BECAUSE you are getting poorer. He is causing chaos that requires people to bribe him to get favors. The chaos makes your stocks and home less valuable. But makes Trump even richer from bribe income. He's doing chaos on purpose, to get more bribes.
🏦 World Liberty Financial: The Trump-backed crypto venture has raised more than $550 million. Trump himself serves as the company's "Chief Crypto Advocate," while his administration pursues policies — including a federal crypto reserve — that have boosted the value of assets held by the firm.
🪙 OFFICIAL TRUMP: The president's meme coin surged more than 60% last week after its website advertised an "intimate private dinner" with Trump for the top 220 coin holders — plus a "special VIP" reception and White House tour for the top 25. The website later scrubbed references to the "White House."
🍸 Executive Branch: Donald Trump Jr. and his business partners are launching an exclusive D.C. club with a $500,000 membership fee, pitched as a private hangout for donors and business moguls to rub shoulders with top Trump officials.
🏗️ Foreign deals: At least 19 foreign Trump-branded projects will be in development over the next four years, according to ethics watchdog CREW. Just this week, the Trump Organization announced a deal to build a luxury golf resort in Qatar. Trump, whose first foreign visit will be to Saudi Arabia, also hosted a Saudi-backed LIV golf tournament at his Doral club in Florida earlier this month.
🧢 Merchandise: The Trump Organization is selling "Trump 2028" hats, a nod to the president's musings about an unconstitutional third term. Trump hawked Bibles, sneakers, perfume and trading cards during the 2024 campaign, and his political operation continues to rely on MAGA merchandise to raise funds.
📇 Corporate boards: Dominari Holdings, a small public financial services company with headquarters in New York's Trump Tower, saw its stock price surge more than 1,200% in about six weeks after Trump Jr. and Eric Trump joined its advisory board and took equity stakes worth millions. Trump Jr. also has been named to the board of a digital firearms retailer, called GrabAGun, that's due to go public this summer.

"More importantly, amid signs that consumers are already pulling back, evidence that rough times are ahead could become a self-fulfilling prophecy. History shows that a country can talk itself into a recession. The world is watching, too. If Trump’s sliding approval ratings create any impression of political weakness, it could undermine his negotiating position as he seeks to close trade deals with dozens of countries seeking to avoid his tariffs. If foreign leaders think he’s desperate, why would they put good offers on ?"
Trump's Golden Age will get him his desired Golden Shower !!
Those specific words do not appear, but SCOTUS (9-0!) said: In the words of Jefferson, the clause against establishment of religion by lawwas intended to erect "a wall of separation between Church and State." Everson v. Board, 330 U.S. 1 (1947) [Emphasis mine.]
The words "one man, one vote" don't appear in the Constitution either, but SCOTUS derived that principle from the 14th Amendment.
Justice Black made up a bunch of stuff that he "found" in the Constitution out of whole cloth - and in a decision that went against the atheist Everson.
Hmm. But that's not really a rebuttal, is it?
The Supreme Court, whose job is to say what the law is, said that the principles of a) separation of church and state, and b) one man, one vote, are in the Constitution. You seem like a smart person, but I'm going to have to trust their opinion about the Constitution over yours, especially when it's 9-0.
The trump admin would declare martial law in an instant. Any kind of civil disobediance would result in martial law feelers. They have already declared that the nation is at war, being invaded, so they can ignore laws the congress has passed, so the WH can do all kinds of vile things. They'll be coming for citizens soon enough, bet on it. Last time Trump swore he'd deploy the army to American streets. We'll see that.
You absolute idiots.
The Trump admin has been examining whether it can label some suspected cartel and gang members inside the US as “enemy combatants” as a way to detain them more easily and limit due process. DoD lawyers are concerned; legal experts say it’s baseless.

... examples of blatant corruption....
Trump has never cared about America in any way other than how he could exploit it for his own wealth and power. His 2016 campaign promises were largely unfulfilled. Remember the infrastructure promise that Biden delivered? What Trump did do was tax breaks mostly for the rich (himself/cronies).
Unfortunately, the real play has been media control during the campaign that worked well. Musk bought twitter and turned it into a conspiracy theory megaphone touting Trump as the only solution. The dolts believed and still do. Corruption, the tearing down of checks and balances, the perversion of justice is so blatantly obvious.
We can give a thousand easily verified examples of this and the Trump disciples will barely argue and respond with things like "yea, but Harris is a drunk". In their minds, that fabricated X meme makes destroying America as we know it ok.

I think trump vaguely feels that the little people in flyover country would like to have factory assembly line jobs, so trying to get shoe factories built there makes him feel warm inside. I think he does genuinely feel the poors who vote for him want to work in factories so trump is doing them a solid by making it happen.
Point is, captain stupid does probably think he's helping america at some level with the tariff idiocy.

Send Hannah Dugan (Wisconsin judge) to El Salvador. She broke the law and aided illegals. And investigate all USAID/Soros funded "charities" that facilitated the border invasion and arrest their leaders.

It was 5-4.
It could have been been 6-3, or the dissenters could have been in the majority. I've read the conference transcript. IIRC, Murphy was a swing vote, and Frankfurter was trying to manipulate everyone - he may have been responsible for Black's final language.

David Brooks has a good column today - it describes how Trumpism is paganism, with its king of the jungle, cruelty is fun, domination as the goal, kindness is weakness ethos. Trump rules a democracy rooted in Christianity but treats it as an authoritarian regime guided by paganism. Look for how trump celebrates cruelty and dominance. Roman Empire stuff. Thebad Roman Empire stuff.
Brooks:
The callous tolerance of cruelty is a river that runs through human history. It was dammed up, somewhat, only by millenniums of hard civilizational work. The pagan ethos — ancient or modern — always threatens to unleash brutality once again. The pagan ethos does not believe that every human was made in the image of God, does not believe in human equality, is not concerned about preserving the dignity of the poor. It does not care much about the universal feelings of benevolence, empathy and faithfulness toward one another, which, it turns out, are absolutely required for a democracy to function.
