To be fair he's no worse here than he was during his 4 years as president. not that that is reassuring.

Yes, I didn’t spot the difference either.

Notable that he hasn't mentioned Georgia/Fani Willis here but does mention others by name.

Clearly some advice is getting through but he still won't just shut up. Must be a nightmare for his lawyers. Clearly he thinks feeding BS to his base is worth the risk in terms of legal jepody.

I wanna like this or something but it’s so f’ed up. The folk who trump (no pun) the greatness of America are the same idiots who are destroying it.

It’s unfortunate sane politicians like this don’t get a lot of limelight for providing free school lunches in his State and instead we get the freaks…

Lake Arrowhead store owner shot and killed over Pride flag hanging outside shop, officials say

According to the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department, the suspect made several disparaging remarks about a rainbow flag that stood outside the store before shooting the owner.

Killed for flying a Pride flag!

The right wing really have become nazis (wanting to and infact sometimes) killing everyone they don't like.

I saw this and to be fair I kind of thought it was a red herring. It’s Trump against groups. It’s cognitive dissonance to say you don’t trust a guy you voted for unless you’ve stopped supporting him. Of the rest of the list — we’ve probably all got friends/family or know public political or religious figures we trust, and some we distrust. So how do you answer that?

Anyhow, we already know it’s an absolute stone cold lock of a cult regardless of the semantics of such a poll.

Means testing seems like a fair thing, but often times it costs more to administer than it would to just give the benefit to everyone. Especially for something as minor as school dinners.

The religious leaders 42% is because so few of them are Trump fans. I know one pastor in a rural University town having to tread warily between local farmers who support Trump and academic staff for whom Trump is the enemy they're meant to love.

It is genuinely is the stupidest cult.

All the evidence is out there in the public domain going back YEARS, pointing to the fact that Trump is FAILED businessman, PROVEN liar, a GREEDY CONMAN and all-round RACIST c*nt, and that's before you get in all the Russia stuff.

The problem is that somehow people have convinced themselves that all that evidence is 'fake news' and that Trump is a crusader for 'freedom' and 'justice' and he's fighting for them, when in reality he's just using them to make money.

I personally think there is a lot more to the Russia story on this guy, but I'm not sure we'll ever find out the full extent of how deep it goes. I think the Steele Dossier is close, but I'm not sure we'll ever fully get to the bottom of it, publicly at least.
