@AmMonq3 @JoJoFromJerz Stalin, like Trump, was so paranoid that he got rid of his competent generals and advisors and replaced them with ass kissers. He had a Russian winter to give him time to recover. Trump ain’t gonna be so lucky.

If you beat the police during the insurrection Trump incited, you get a pardon. But if you touch the peeling reflecting pool paint he created, you get arrested.

@william_huhn @JoJoFromJerz “Just following orders” was not an acceptable excuse at Nuremberg. Why should it be an acceptable excuse in Detroit or Chicago?

@JoJoFromJerz When you beat the police and take over a town for I forget how long you don’t even get charged. Libtards spit in the face of federal agents who are just following orders that we provide for them when we elect our leaders and never get charged. So Jo what’s your point.

@OccupyDemocrats Trump can’t write “Barack Obama” without putting “Hussein” in the middle. Considering his hush money payments and appearances in the Epstein Files, why don’t people write his name as Donald “John” Trump?

BREAKING: LOL! Trump unleashes a Stage 5 atomic meltdown after a federal judge ordered that his name be stripped off the Kennedy Center with a permanent injunction. Strap in, this one's a doozy... "Shockingly, a Judge appointed by Barack Hussein Obama, Christopher Cooper, ruled that The Kennedy Center, which was going to close in early July for largescale renovations and construction due to years of neglect, decay, and poor maintenance, and which was to be transformed by the Trump Administration into the Finest Facility of its kind, anywhere in the World, is not allowed to close for these renovations, which would not be possible to properly do without such a closure," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Additionally, Judge Cooper ruled that the 36 Member Board of Trustees, which unanimously voted to add the name 'TRUMP' onto the former Kennedy Center, making it The Trump Kennedy Center, did not have the right to do such an addition, and the name, 'TRUMP,' must be removed," he whined. Earlier today, Judge Cooper ruled that Trump's name must be removed because federal law makes it "crystal clear” that the center is named after John F. Kennedy. He further ruled that the board, which is staffed by Trump toadies, cannot close the center for two years of "renovations." It was a total defeat for the administration and a humiliating black eye for Trump personally. "The Kennedy Center has lost, over the years, prior to our getting involved a short while ago, Hundreds of Millions of Dollars — In some cases, including ridiculous construction jobs that were done, over 100 Million Dollars a year," Trump continued. "I took great pride in taking over a losing Institution, and looked forward to making it into a Great and Prestigious WINNER for Washington, D.C., and indeed, the United States of America." In reality, as soon as Trump took over the center it began to wilt. Prominent artists cancelled performances in protest of his meddling and ticket sales plummeted. The planned closure was, at least partially, designed to give Trump a break from all of the bad press around the center. "Unfortunately, Judge Cooper and the Radical Left would rather see it DIE than have President Trump transform it into something that everyone could be proud of, much as I have done, in many cases, throughout my life, and recently, with all of the construction, renovations, and 'fix ups' that we have completed with the Department of Interior on Waterfalls, Fountains, Monuments, and other things of Beauty that we have brought back to life in a now SAFE AND SECURE, after Record Setting Crime, Washington, D.C., which is thriving like, perhaps, never before!" Trump continued. Despite his assertions to the contrary, Trump's wasteful "renovations" in D.C. have proven deeply unpopular. He's blowing through our tax dollars on vanity projects that we neither need nor can afford. The insult is rendered all the more galling by the fact that Trump has absolutely no taste when it comes to aesthetics. Everything he oversees ends up looking tacky and cheap. "Therefore, based on the fact that the Radical Left Democrats care more about opposing your favorite President, ME, than saving a dying Performing Arts Center, almost all of which lose large amounts of money throughout the Country, we are going to be working with Congress to transfer this failing Institution back to them so they can make a determination as to what to do with it," Trump went on. "Judge Cooper was given a presentation by leading Building and Construction Experts as to how structurally dangerous the Building is, with rotting beams, parking areas that are subject to collapse, and various other Life and Safety problems, in addition to the fact that it also needs a MAJOR renovation, from an aesthetic standpoint, but he was not 'swayed,' and said he wants the Building to, incredibly, remain open and, therefore, dangerous," Trump rambled. When he handed down his ruling, Cooper stated that the Board of Trustees used “an insufficient, one-sided presentation of information” to justify their closure of the center. "Judge Cooper should be ashamed of himself!" Trump continued. "I cannot be involved with a situation where danger to the Public is allowed to flourish in plain and open sight. Unless I am free to do what I do better than anyone else, bring this Institution back, physically, financially, and artistically, I have no interest in continuing what could only be a hopeless journey into 'NEVER NEVER LAND.'" Translation: Trump is waving the white flag. He knows that he has no legal recourse here because federal law clearly states that he cannot slap his name on the Kennedy Center. This Truth Social rant is a pathetic attempt to act like this is somehow his decision, rather than something he was forced to concede. "There has never been a President of the United States who has been treated so unfairly by the Courts as I but, that’s OK, I will continue to do, what is considered to be, a great job for the wonderful people of our Country," added the convicted felon and likely pedophile. "I have instructed the Department of Commerce to make all necessary arrangements with Congress to allow a full and complete transfer of this Institution, giving them the responsibility for its Operation, Maintenance, and Management. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP" he concluded. If you had to name one building in this country after Trump, which would you choose? Get creative! Please ❤️ and share to thank Judge Cooper!

@Metalchondria What’a crazy is that according to the article MAGA supporters think it was fake but still support Trump. So they are okay with him being a murderer and lying to their faces. It’s absolutely bonkers.

@VinceWinstanley @JohnCleese Trump’s historical knowledge is zero. I suspect that a lot of Churchill’s wartime “intuition” was based upon the hacking of Enigma, which wasn’t divulged until after the war.

@RonFilipkowski It’s very unfortunate that Tillis couldn’t have run out while he could have made a difference and while he had something to lose. He’s just trying to salvage his reputation before retirement.

@seandparnell He already had the condition when my colleague tried to change jobs and get covered by her new employer’s insurance. It seems to me that this is the definition of “preexisting “. No coverage.

@aParisGeek @DecodingFoxNews What exactly is the “nope” here? Because it doesn’t sound like there was a pre-ex condition problem here, at least not as that term has generally been used.

I won’t let them lie about this. I got denied coverage when I was 23 and perfectly healthy. Individual plans are not profitable for insurance companies so they find ANY reason to shut you out. A catastrophic plan is also a gamble as they don’t cover much at all.

Mariah looks like a relatively healthy young person. She would have been able to buy a very cheap catastrophic plan before the ACA made that illegal.

@aParisGeek @DecodingFoxNews Assuming a new job also had health benefits, the pre-existing condition wouldn’t have mattered (though it might have entailed a change in providers but that’s a different problem).

@billmaher Trump isn’t Hitler. Hitler served in the military, spent time in prison for his failed coup, and wrote his own book. I don’t know how to express opposition to Trump. I hope that an effective strategy emerges.

Trump went out to dinner, and people started to gather around him, chanting, "You're the Hitler of our time!" He's not Hitler, and calling somebody Hitler just makes it a lot easier to justify things like assassination. Let's put that shit away.
