I did him a disservice. I assumed he couldn’t read.

You might still be correct.

Perhaps he had an employee read him a bedtime story?

Generally unspecified bribery and corruption, which (as far as I can tell) they don't have any evidence for at the moment.

Mostly they want to try to find something to link Biden (sorry, that's "head of the Biden crime family") to Hunter Biden. A Rep senator called Johnson was just on and was hilarious gung-ho, adamant that Biden's getting his 10% from everything Hunter's done.

Smacks of our 115 charges.

Fucking balloons.

Some maybe. I doubt Trump knows anything about it. He just chases the likes and found out that hate speak is the best for that.

Maybe his advisors do though and have found the way to make him use that rhetoric though.

Does he still have Stephen Miller writing for him? That guys an evil little prick. Wouldnt surprise me if he's behind it.

Yes, agreed, he doesn't know enough and hasn't read enough to be aware that his language on immigrants today is so close to the "racial purity" eugenics stuff spouted in the 1930s. Which makes it all the worse because it's his instinct talking and by instinct he's a white supremacist. Or by inheritance, having imbibed those views from his daddy who wouldn't rent new york apartments to folk with dark skins.

Whilst I agree that he’s not fit for office, any office actually, is this not a slippery slope to go down? If he’s a convicted criminal and it’s in the rules he can’trun then that’s one thing but for courts to decide who can or can’t run doesn’t seem very democratic to me.









I personally think he should be in jail but just questioning this decision.
