I'll Say It Again ...

Listening to the TV talking heads yet again discussing Trump, asking each other why he says the things he says and does the things he does.

Despite asking those questions on a daily basis for the past two years, no one ever states the answer that’s as simple as it is obvious: It’s because he’s a MORON.

Why does the “pResident” think he’s the smartest guy in the room? Because he’s a MORON.

Why does the “pResident” ignore the advice of experienced experts? Because he’s a MORON.

Why does the “pResident” tweet incoherent bullshit? Because he’s a MORON.

In addition to being a liar, a racist, a traitor, a criminal, and Putin’s bitch – Donald Trump is a FUCKIN’ MORON.

I wish someone would just state the obvious, because there’s really no honest argument against that being the case. His entire tenure in office thus far is the proof thereof – one moronic decision after the other, one moronic tweet after the other, one moronic statement after the other.

While the Republican spokes-whores harp on the fact that Mueller’s investigation is casting a pall over Trump’s “pResidency”, they fail to recognize the again oh-so-obvious truth: only a completely clueless MORON would think that he could do everything Trump’s done and get away with it.

They never talk about issues.

All they talk about is what tRump says and tweets.
All they talk about is who's "likable" who's "winning".

The president is mentally impaired and should be removed. I wish all the talking heads would address the main problem with Trump, he is mentally impaired. I don't know if it is his narcissism gone too far or dementia, but he mentally unstable. His rash decisions, inability to concentrate on reading material and his constant lies are a symptom of his mental illness.

But the talking heads on cable TV love him. Cable viewership for both right and left political shows is at an all time high because of him.

It’s really YOU! Even photoshopped.

And YES. Somebody in the media needs to say it. Speaking as a partisan here. But yes. Sometimes there comes a point where one can and should stop trying to play some sort of “devil’s advocate” or objective. Because sometimes objectivity should include and be based on objective TRUTH. And in such cases playing “devil’s advocate” makes no sense because, frankly, one ought not to be advocating for the devil. (Particularly if one calls oneself a Christian.”)

(Anyone know a web add-on that can replace that ugly "trump" name with the much more apt "turd"? It'd be a major hit!)

Our media is shit!

It will be the same thing on the next election cycle as the last if Trump makes it that far.

No discussion of issues! Full on showing his hate fests

On edit: I never would have thought to see a day when a president is called out the way he is. Directly on his own Twitter page people are calling him an asshole, motherfucker, you name it. It is unreal

We are pissed!

Sixty-three million people failed.

They failed to see the obvious. They failed to put their own best interests first. They failed to inform themselves about what Trump was - despite that information being readily available. They failed to recognize a con-artist when they saw one.

Let's keep the blame focused on those who caused this disaster. This is not a "we" situation by any stretch.

Those 63 million voters were the minority. That FACT should NEVER be forgotten.

America needs to be reminded of that constantly, as we build the case for abolishing the Electoral College.

moronic musings give them ratings. That's why he got five times the coverage during the campaign. The presstitutes owe all of us an apology for compromising their profession for gold. We are all the worse off for the media's lack of fortitude to stand up to the scumbag Trump and his immoral Party.
A dangerous moron has the levers of power. We must throw shit in his face at every opportunity.
