The blame falls squarely on the Republican Party for completely ignoring what the Convicted Felon is illegally doing every hour of everyday! They really don’t care how much damage he causes, how many people die because of stupidity or that the damage he causes will take decades to undo! It’s a travesty & a slap on every single person living in this country! SHAME on them…the ENTIRE GOP (Greed Over People) needs to be Impeached!

Exactly, and agree totally. I have been saying this since the rapey felon ’s first term that it’s the republicans’ mess and They need to fix the damage caused by the pig in office. The gutless, spineless, amoral weathervanes in the republican party are complicit in the destruction of our democracy, harming the majority of Americans. We need to hammer the evidence of the destruction of our institutions and government by the rapey felon’s administration relentlessly and no quarter given to those who bend the knee and play dead.

And the over the hill political strategist (Ragin' Cajun) advice to Dems is 'play dead'. I'm telling ya, D in 3 years will ban the Dem party cause Schumer hasn't fought back.

Josseline's avatar

Yes the Dems really need to get rid of those who prefer to wring their hands rather than get them dirty! It’s time for change…we need young assertive go-getters! I love Jasmine Crockett, AOC, etc we MUST have more of those…Chuck Schumer needs to retire!

If anyone cares to write a handbook on what the president should be, I suggest they develop the polar opposite of rump

ksd's avatar

Exactly.Our message should be bring back ethics

Yes, my father taught me to only invest in ethical.companies. haven't been able to find them.

Richard Timko's avatar

I agree with that. So true !

The most corrupt crime family in United States 🇺🇸 modern history. The worse of the worse. They've committed so many crimes that a judge would have to give them multiple years in prison served consecutively. Horrible vile pieces of shit. Now we have all the republican representatives doing the same and committing treason.

“Performance art with a cash register.” You are spot on, Michael.

You are a great writer, Michael! Keep speaking truth to power!

Peggy's avatar

I am so grateful for you, Michael, and the nuance you have lent this whole situation, from the early days of this nightmare. This might be your best article yet, you zinged in on what I have been trying to put together in my now crazed mind

Republicans Don't Like the Nazi Takeover But Most Cannot Admit To the Corruption

The current Nazi party was recently "voted" into the White House because as they said we need a businessman to run government and 49.5% of us bought into the nonsensical argument But as Tim Walz recently said on MSNBC there are two problems with this thinking

First the government is not supposed to be run as a for profit company modeled as some American large conglomerate Government in a democratic republic is meant to serve WE the people It's not meant to be a for profit company but an institution that serves the needs of the people, that is, those who need a helping hand, those less fortunate than wealthy billionaires, those who need housing, those who need nutritional support, those who are crushed financially due to the high costs of living, those who need medical science or care And due to government's job to support the people's needs it has to take on tasks that for profit companies refuse to take on simply because there's no profit and advantage for them to do those tasks So government takes them on and WE the taxpayer help support such endeavors

The second problem is that the Orange Cheeto and his Nazi regime are incompetent and dishonest in how businesses work in general As a matter of fact the Cheeto has personally bankrupted companies 5 times due to his business incompetence But beyond sheer ineptitude Cheeto and his Nazi sycophants have turned the government into a corrupt financial turnstyle cash machine using cryptocurrency to line his own pockets and those billionaires and governments aligning along with his deceptive trade and grifting policies This will not end well for America

The American public is witnessing the greatest political scam in its 250y history which is in and of itself both breathtaking and shocking All of it occurring as unaware or occasional pundits look the other way as if that will be make it all be alright

Soooo feel like protesting some more??

Government exists for the people not the politicians

Grift, But Make It Patriotic

Once upon a time, corruption at least had manners. Deals were shady, but discreet—like gentlemen cheating at poker. Now? It’s full-blown karaoke night for con artists. No shame. No subtlety. Just bold-faced grift with a red hat and a meme coin.

Trump didn’t just break politics—he franchised it. Want influence? Don’t bother with credentials. Slap a MAGA sticker on your crypto startup, name-drop Don Jr., and boom—you’re basically the Secretary of State of Griftistan. It’s not public service anymore; it’s public self-enrichment. And the more obvious it is, the more the crowd roars.

NFTs? Scammy. Trump NFTs? Sacred relics. The faithful aren’t investing—they’re buying holy indulgences with Dogecoin. And behind the scenes, the Trump clan runs it like a divine pyramid scheme. Jared gets billions from Saudi royals. Ivanka cashes out faster than a Vegas slot machine. Junior plays Joe Rogan on meth. And Donald? He just smirks and posts, watching wallets open like it’s the second coming of QVC.

This isn’t politics. It’s QAnon’s Got Talent. The GOP? They’ve gone from party of Lincoln to party of “how do I get in on this sweet influence game without doing time?” The base? They cheer. The media? They monetize it.

The grift isn’t a bug. It’s the brand.

So remember: If someone asks how the Trump empire keeps growing, don’t say “policy.” Say “Ponzi.” And if you’re still looking for ethics in this circus, I’ve got a meme token to sell you.

T has tired the USA into p3rd rate and unstable country. His grift is unbelievable.

Anne MacDonald's avatar

Well articulated. You had me at medieval indulgences.

Chuck Didier's avatar

Great, that you are exposing this, dt was brought into my sphere in the late eighties/early nighties, after the second article on him I knew then and there he was/is/will always be, a scam artist. I am amazed at how stupid, not ignorant, the “sheepeople” are that support him. One has to maintain a positive mindset, as we move forward.

Peggy's avatar

Remember back in the day, we called it, “willful ignorance?” We were being way too kind. Idiots!!!

Sue's avatar

Ok so Mr T gets to break our laws because SCOTUS gave him immunity. From Everything? The rest of the circus doesn't have immunity, but he can pardon their crimes? This is Upside down, unless I'm not understanding this Madness.

Timothy Teter's avatar

Haha. From behind we can see his balding head.

Suede67's avatar

Funny, l legit laughed when I first saw the pic of the back of his head. Laughed, then felt nauseous. Yuk, everything about him is so gross. He is seriously puke-inducing. :P

Ellen's avatar

And his bouffant comb over gets more ridiculous by the day!! As does his face paint!!

Suede67's avatar

It sure does! I always wonder how he, himself, does not realize (or care?) how incredibly ridiculous he looks.

Peggy's avatar

Did you know he had scalp surgery once, to tighten his gap. Isn’t that creepy? Now I am looking for the scar every time the wind blows.

Suede67's avatar

Now if only he would have surgery to tighten his yap, that would be ideal.

TT's avatar

Tighten the gap or face lift .

Janina Fenigsen's avatar

the ring seems a more appealing kissable option compared to a more common MAGA choice

Ellen's avatar

yea....his shitty ass or tiny mushroom!!

"This isn’t politics anymore. It’s performance art with a cash register." You really are brilliant, no wonder Yale wants you to become an adjunct professor. Thank you for working so hard to keep a light on the BS.
