Not only that but the stench coming from Trump is making people faint. This is someone who is rotting from the inside out.

I agree, and all his worst impulses are being placed on full display. 'TRUMP' babies, stadiums, wine, arcs, the White house, DC, and more being branded by him. Trump's name being franchised to other countries, corruption and grifting, unimaginable up until this crackhead, him extorting companies to pledge allegiance, both in spirit and monetarily, to him in order to operate their business without penalties.... Trump, the Liberace of presidents, is horrible. Everything that he and KKKLeavitt says is an Uno Reverse statement.

Michael, this is a fun read and very well written (as is usual). But how do you propose to get this message out to those who really need to read it (i.e., the MAGAverse)? I suspect the vast majority of us reading this already believe you and agree with you.

I agree 100% and that's about the only comment I make to any of these guys anymore.

If MTG can get daytime airtime on "The View," which everyday people would see while they're sitting in a doctors office or having a manicure or haircut, then some of our bad ass articulate Democrats need to go get airtime and a half and then bullet-point things like, "here is a Thanksgiving meal, courtesy of the No King's movement."

Because, your point.

TO THE MEIDAS STAFF----- CAN YOU QUICKLY GET THIS MESSAGE TO THE SENATOR'S DESK? 

TO MY DEAR SENATOR, CORY BOOKER, . . . .  Senator, if you do read this PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not let Chuck Schumer allow Senate Democrats to cave to Trump's terrorism. Stand firm, let the RED HAT people really experience the level of their suffering acceptable to asshole Republican leaders (leaders, my ass). Instead, spend your efforts preparing to win the Senate and House next year with majorities enough to impeach Presidents, Vice Presidents and Supreme Court and Federal Court Justices who ignore or twist truth and law. Allow the newly elected Leader of the House to assume the role as The United States President for the remainder of Trump's term. A new DOJ can send the criminals to jail. Revamp the effing ballroom into a care shelter for homeless veterans and service dogs. Claw back from Trump's vast wealth commensurate amounts for reparations for the physical damages he has caused in OUR White House and to OUR Capitol Building. Make sure he never gets to use that new Air Force One and speaking of the Air Force, please have our best Constitution loving pilots prep for fly-overs on a weekly basis to dump feces over Donald's beloved golf courses and over his cherished Mar-a-Lago. Let him experience the joy of being a real victim for once not as a man claiming witch hunt every time he is accused of real crimes. I am wiling to donate one week's salary to the fly-over cause. Who will join me?

If the Senate gives in now… without anything for the American people… we might as well tell the courts to give in… WE MUST HOLD THE LINE! Don’t give in Democrats, just don’t give in!

I don’t believe gender neutral is a real thing… we certainly can decide our gender… but it’s one or the other… no matter what! Only my humble opinion.

Schumer is not a opposition leader. I wish someone with a spine would take over as Senate minority leader. Democrats in the Senate need a new leader.

I have emailed Schumer and asked him if he is on constant nap time because he is doing nothing for the American people. I told him it is time he steps aside and let someone fight for the people.

I think you're asking too much of the Dems as they're really past master at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. After the "Blue Tsunami," I expect to see the Dems turn it into a "Blue Trickle" for the 2026 midterms.

Trump is taking from the poor to make up for the tax cuts for the rich. He will go after Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security. He does not care if he breaks you in the process. He starve you, leave you sick, and arrest you if you are homeless! He is a demented psychopath! Doesn’t matter if you are a Trump voter/supporter or not, he is out to take and whoever becomes president next will get a bankrupt country.

Trump lives in some alternative universe, affordability isn't a problem for him and his millionaire friends. He could care less about the rest of the country.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to remind our wanna be king, Donald SLUMP, of the French Revolution, a revolt by the people who were starving because of THEIR king. I do seem to recall a guillotine was involved. Anybody got one of those? Bet all the media would cover that front-page story. Yes, history is littered with horrible examples of suffering at the hands of villainous tyrants. It has taken only 250 years for our misery to be added to the list. All because chickens died by the millions and egg prices soared. Also Mitch McConnell had a big part to play. Let's not forget him. ____ Our own history has oft times been littered by the actions of our own elected officials, sworn to uphold our laws and serve the people. Something stinks and I think it is orange and sickly. It seems we have plenty of money for sign on bonuses for ICE goons. Trump appointees are buying airplanes. Nobody knows where the tariff money went. Yet we cannot afford to give $6 a day to needy CITIZENS for food or help with health insurance costs. _____ W-T-F !!! We have a cancer in our government that needs immediate resection or our democracy will die a slow death and no amount of morphine will ease the pain. Support BLUE candidates across the country for local, state and federal offices. We have to fight to stay alive. May G-d give the Meidas organization and all our candidates the strength to win this struggle for our future and that of our children. The government is shut down. Why should we keep paying taxes? States should get a prorated refund. Mike drop.

Fundamental problem: a significant portion of the adult population in this country gets its news entirely from Fox News, and almost nothing Fox News says is true. Every time Trump lies, Fox amplifies and repeats that lie, and far too many people are willing to believe what they hear and ignore what they experience. This isn't new. What's new is exploiting it at this level by the person who is supposed to lead our country.

Nice article, well written again! "Thanks,!" but wrong audience. You are preaching to the choir here. I'd like to see you put this out on a right wing MAGA media or right leaning... They are the one's who need this message, not anyone who lives and reads here. I challenge you to put it out for the audience who is most deserving in reading it.
