I have a multi-decade plan, too. It includes prison, substantial taxation, and a message of self-deportation to those who don't want to live in a multicultural democracy with a constitution and rule of law. Get the fuck out. Leave us in peace.

All PEDOPHILES Should be Prosecuted no matter who they are or how rich they are. Lock them up. They done the crime so they have got to do the time. They are not Christians.

Release all the EPSTEIN FILES with only the girls/ women names redacted nothing and no one else.

If we had equal justice of the law all of them would be prosecuted by now. America is not a republic nor is it a democracy. We are supposed to be a country with liberty and justice for all and we’re supposed to be government for and by the people. We don’t have people justice in this horrible thing called America and we are not government for and by the people. The clowns that we call our government serve the corporations only.

It’s important that David pointed out to that even as Trump gone, Trumpism is not going away when Trump is gone. I remind people that Adolf Hitler didn’t single-handedly kill 6 million Jews and 5, million gypsies. The people in Trump‘s orbit are every bit as evil as the Nazis,maybe worse.

I’m not that concerned about the upcoming measles epidemic. A measles vaccine works in the responsible people will get their kids vaccinated. MAGATS are such selfish whiners and slaves to their politics but they’re willing to put their kids at a risk. Their kids will probably turn out just like them so if they die prematurely, it’s probably a good thing.

"creating a misleading narrative where Trump is only responsible for success."

I remember shortly after starting in office in 2017, there was a report of some large number of years without a plane crash, and Trump immediately took credit for it.

I remember Trump, in an interview during the height of the Covid pandemic, Trump denying ANY Responsibility for anything.

That is his way. Claim credit for everything, even if he has to lie to have something to take credit for. In fact if it is already good, he will lie to make the numbers better. But he will NEVER take the blame, accept responsibility, admit to ANY mistake or admit that anything is less than the perfection he wants it to be, unless he is fear mongering then just reverse everything...

No need to be shocked, he has done it so very many times, publicly. One time in an interview, early in his first term as I recall, he admitted that when he calls something "Fake News" it actually means it is just news he does not like. And yet all day long the MSM just reports his claims like it is news. What would be NEWS is if Trump actually told the truth, or admitted to a mistake or took responsibility for something not working.

During Covid his strategy was to reduce testing, so things wouldn't look so bad, and to shove all the responsibility to the states, then pressure the states to do nothing so everyone could pretend the pandemic away. All while he made the weekly reports on Covid all about him 'being in charge' (but never responsible).

This is a tired old exercise where we keep trying to capture in real time the picture of 'how bad Trump is'. What we NEED is a picture of ALL the bad things he has done so people can see clearly 'how bad Trump is'. It is very hard for a person who only peeks at the news occasionally to realize how bad Trump is, especially when Trump LIES all the time and is supported in his lies by an entire Conservative media system and most all of those who still call themselves Republicans. It must be easy to believe it is just the usual noise of politics and accusations by both sides. Few will take the time to review the evidence in legaleze documents of way too many pages. And even then, it is one crime, with no context. And of course the accusations from Trump sound semi real, until you take time to dig for any actual evidence to back the claims.

There is more than one way to show a story, to paint a picture, to explain a concept and help people to see the truth. It is OK for us to explore the talents and skills of Democrats and provide context, perspective, the evidence without burying them in it (but laying it there so people can see it is real). and to give the feeling of the depth and breadth of all of the different ways Trump has done wrong. Point to the crimes, including those that are plainly crimes but that he has not yet been convicted for. Point to ALL the reasons he does not belong in office, per the constitution. FLOOD THE ZONE!!!
