Karma is coming for vile and corrupt trump and the gop soon๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

We need to stand up for children, seniors, the disabled, Veterans - oh wait! pretty much every single American who did not vote for this disaster. I would spit on any oligarchs if I should see them. I have edited this comment from saying every single American.

JMull's avatar

We all can show support for the veterans on June 6 in DC. Everyone is invited. I think it will speak volumes if the regime sees how many vets are against him.

Leah Baum's avatar

I spoke with my granddaughter who is in the Airforce. She told me the military members selected to participate in his ego parade want nothing to do with this, but have to follow orders.

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

Why do they have to follow the orders? I thought they are supposed to protect the Constitution and the American people. If everyone together opposed the orders......

Leah Baum's avatar

All i know is they donโ€™t have to follow unlawful orders, but the secretary of the military is that drunk and sexual predator is Pete Hegseth. Iโ€™m furious our taxpayers money is paying for a North Korea level parade costing us $92 million plus another $90 million to repair the streets.

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

Apparently a lot of our military does not want to participate but they are under orders.

They planned it for d-day before there were plans for the 14th. It seems like the word didnโ€™t get out there enough in the beginning. I just feel like a DC rally with veterans before there are tanks in the streets might speak to so many.

So you're standing up for the millions of Americans who voted for and will vote again for Trump?

Scott Farmer's avatar

I would march to the Gates of Hell to get my country back! It doesnโ€™t belong to rich obligartes who donโ€™t care about anyone by themselves ! The GOP that blindly follow their Orange God that they follow despite what his decrees do to the people and this country. Children going without meals and basic needs. Citizens whose homes have been destroyed without FEMA to get the ball started on rebuilding. All the time these Americans are struggling trying to get things back to right while The Goofball in charge plays golf and scams more money into his pockets. Remember what a Douche he is and remind as many people you can around the Midterms and take our country back!!!

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

I will march as well. I want this country back for my children and grandchildren.

Dik de Bruijn's avatar

And yet millions of the most vulnerable voted for him and would/will vote for him again.

DD.'s avatar

And millions didnโ€™t vote because no one cared about the genocide in Palestine. Voting for leaders who donโ€™t care doesnโ€™t make sense to some folks.

Gloria McCulley's avatar

Their non-vote was, in reality, a vote for this nightmare we are living. What did they get for withholding their vote?

Robin's avatar

They have the right to vote for trash, it's a democracy for now. We can shake our heads and as Gramma would say "bless their hearts"

JMull's avatar

No the people leading this are fighting against the regime. See Kris Goldsmithโ€™s Substack.

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

Not sure how you see it that way. Absolutely not. We are not standing up for the ignorant Americans who voted for Trump. However, we are standing up for those who realize the mistake they have made. I should also say we are not standing up for the greedy, evil oligarchs who can't see past their bank accounts.

Robin's avatar

we have to stand up for everyone, or no one. c'mon...

Ronald M Pollack's avatar

They can't unless this orange turd manages to get the 2term limit gutted!!!!!!!

Dik de Bruijn's avatar

Hoping against hope TD won't get the term limits gutted. But there's also Trump Mach II = Vance or someone else equally reprehensible who will be a stand-in regardless of term limits or whether TD is still alive.

Terry's avatar

It's against the constitution for trump to run again. trump doesn't have the power to change the constitution. Simply writing an Executive Order can't overwrite the constitution.

Twenty Second Ammendment

Section 1

No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once. But this Article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this Article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term within which this Article becomes operative from holding the office of President or acting as President during the remainder of such term.

Section 2

This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several States within seven years from the date of its submission to the States by the Congress.

Dik de Bruijn's avatar

While you are most certainly correct, I don't think that will stand in the way of Trump and his thugs in or out of Congress. If Trump can't get the Constitution amended, I think he and his followers will find some way to ignore it. I sincerely hope I am wrong.

Terry's avatar

trump would never get 2/3rds of the vote in both the House AND Senate. Our checks and balances aren't gone.

Sylvia Arrowood's avatar

Trump has not listened to any Judge's orders. He isn't listening to anyone but his followers. I am not certain how much longer we can tolerate these acts.

My father also was a gunner in WW2 heโ€™s been gone 14 years im so proud of him.

Oddwood's avatar

I, too, am very proud of my Father who was a Submariner during WWII and rejoined when the Korean Conflict commenced.

My Grandfather was a CB in the Pacific Islands.

We owe so much to the brave men and women that defended Democracy globally.

Lynn Horsky's avatar

My Dad served in the Army in the Pacific Arena as well. I have ancestors that have fought in almost every war in every generation since the 1600's. From King Phillip's war is 1670's, the French and Indian Wars, at Bunker Hill, both sides of the Civil War, the Spanish American War, WWI and WWII. Many to honor today and to revere their faith in the American experiment that has been sabotaged by the traitors that have stolen our government. We have abundant reasons to defy these tyrants. Look forward to being in the No Kings protest!! Keep the faith burning, brothers.

Lynsey Reuber's avatar

My family has also been fighting since the 1600s. My 3X Great Grandfather was bayoneted at the age of 90 and left to die, when Tories took over his town. My family has served in Intelligence; Korea and died in Vietnam. They all fought to be free and for a democratic republic. i honor them all today. โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ ๐Ÿ™. I pray that we never forget their service and sacrifice.

Lynn Horsky's avatar

I forgot to mention that my own brother and cousin served during the Vietnam War as well. One of my boyfriends came home in as box after stepping on a grenade. God bless him, he was a fun guy, brave and a positive spirit. I know he made it to heaven!

Anne Johnson's avatar

My father was in the Air Force and flew missions over the South Pacific. He has been gone for 17 years. I have been thinking about my parents so much lately and what they would say about what is happening to our country today. They would be so devastated.

Ursalette's avatar

I think about that too. Iโ€™m actually glad they arenโ€™t here to see this disaster.

Anne Johnson's avatar

I feel the same way. I do have occasional moments when I wish I could talk to them. But in the long run, I'm glad they were spared this.

olderwoman's avatar

My father was an engineer, task was to clear mine fields and deactivate booby traps.

The jeep hit a mine, the driver was dead the other two were badly wounded.

My dad carried both the wounded guys back across a live mine field and then, cleared the mine field so the troops could advance, for the very first allied invasion into motherland Germany, the Battle of the Rhineland.

Granted a Bronze Medal, Heroism under fire, did not get the silver star as that is Heroism and Leadership under fire, and he didn't lead as was the only remaining one, so no one left to lead.

Lynn Horsky's avatar

itโ€™s great you know the story as so many couldnโ€™t open and up and talk about the war

olderwoman's avatar

I never knew, I had always known he had a Bronze Medal but never knew why as, like you say he didn't talk about it. It was only when my son was in grade school and had an assignment to interview your grandparents and write a report about what they did in WWII that I first found out about it. For a school report my father finally opened up and talked about it. That is how I found out.

My husband's father had passed when my husband was 18 so my husband told my son that story. His other grandfather, southern Italy (read poor, the poorest part of Italy) was against Musolini, hated fascism, recognized fascism, saw right through Musolini. He volunteered to fight for the King of Italy and was captured in Greece and sent to a concentration camp in Berlin Germany. According to the Geneva Convention the prisoners were allowed to periodically send post cards home, we still have those post cards.

The post cards had the camp number stamped on them, we had framed the post cards. One day I walked by and noticed the camp number stamped and thought, "I should look up where that camp was, that information might be on the internet." The iternet was still pretty new but more and more information was on the internet, and I did find it, the camp was in Berlin Germany.

The Germans used to segregate and house the prisoners by country, and there were fights between prisoners, more or less a country origin type fights. Grandfather had really pissed off the guards and they threatened to move him into the Russian lodging. He said the Russians were the worst. So him and another Italian prisoner made a plan and actually escaped from a POW camp in Berlin Germany, they followed the rivers and the mountain ridges to walk back to Italy.

When they arrived in Italy they hid and observed, when they saw the Americans they went into the American camp with their hands up and surrendered. The Americans looked at them in amazement and asked them where they came from as they were skinny as toothpicks, the US had conquered Italy, the Americans were now an occupying Army. They told their story, the Americans were amazed and housed them in their camp for a good long time and fed them until they got stronger. Then they got them train passes from northern Italy to southern Italy, along with US Army passes for the travel, and they went home to their wives in southern Italy. My mother in law says she almost died of shock when he walked in the door.

Lynn Horsky's avatar

Great story. I hope you have passed it on to any of your descendants.

Ursalette's avatar

Wow, what a hero! My father was a medic for a while and it almost broke him. Iโ€™m still upset decades later about my best friend dying at 19, 1 very dear person I canโ€™t imagine the grief your father suffered over and over. And to cross a minefield to save your fellow soldiersโ€ฆ this is why your fatherโ€™s generation really is the Greatest Generation. If people today would try to be 1/2 as good, weโ€™d all be living 100% better today.

It's very upsetting to see a president that doesn't care about our military. When he salute's to one it really pisses me off. Him laying a wreath is mocking our military. He's a POS and never should have been voted in again., not even the first time. God bless America and our military ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ

โ€œWhat do Trump, Zuckerberg, and the rest of these authoritarian gangsters have to fear from laughter?

Everything.

As Mark Twain wrote in The Mysterious Stranger (1916), โ€œPower, money, persuasion, supplication, persecutionโ€”these can lift at a colossal humbugโ€”push it a littleโ€”weaken it a little, century by century; but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand.โ€

Keep laughing.โ€

Wayne RN's avatar

Itโ€™s just pure projection.

At least we can consistently count on the orange mango In Chief for that.

He tells us every day exactly who he is.

I always like to actually read the definitions of words we use all the time just to make sure Iโ€™m understanding it correctly.

In psychology, projection is a defense mechanism where an individual unconsciously attributes their own unwanted or unacceptable feelings, impulses, or behaviors to another person or object. This allows them to avoid acknowledging these negative aspects of themselves.

Scott Bump's avatar

He uses the special Day for himself. Like most any Malignant Narcist! Is the US Army still going to perform for him June 14? After he said this? June 14 protests should sit down in front of that birthday parade!! Its our chance to vent how WE FEEL about this slimely loose ass hole!!

My stepdad was a tail gunner in WWII, also received a Purple Heart. He told me a story about when their plane was hit and their 19! year old pilot got them back to the base in England.

My Dad was a pilot who received a Sliver Star.

What can I say, my mom had a thing for guys in uniform.

Seriously, while I think of them all the time, I especially talk to them on Memorial Day, and thank them.

They were two really good men and I was blessed to have them in my life. Their memories are a blessing. ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธโ™ฅ๏ธ

I bet they were a blessing Linda I bet they were.

The part of the story that freaks me out is that the pilot was only 19 years old.

The gays have a saying that is very poignent to them,

"We stand on the shoulders of Giants"

So so many brave gay men and lesbian women and bi sexual people in prior generations experienced so much hate and discrimination and yet, and yet they prevailed and they changed the culture. They prevailed.

I'll never ever ever ever forget June 26, 2015 when the Supreme Court ruled for equal marriage rights for people who are LGBT in the Obegefell case. I was reading on a primarily gay mens blog and I think I read about the saddest comment I have ever read on line. I still remember it, "My partner Ben was kicked out of the Navy for being gay, he never got over that his whole life. We were together for 30 years when he died earlier this year, and as happy as I am, and I am crying tears of happiness, I am also sad knowing that Ben lived and died never having experienced true freedom. "

I truly think we do stand on the shoulders of Giants when it comes to the Greatest Generation, from the 29 year old pilot to the tank drivers, and after the war they came back and lite the United States on FIRE. They came back and went to work and the country was BOOMING. Thus how my generation got it's name The Baby Boomers, I'm a Boomer.

My father in law was also a rear gunner in a Wellington bomber. They learned through mistakes.

Many flight crews died, the amounts staggering.

Many more foot soldiers and sailors died.

Ironically, they lay down for democracy.

Life, love and the pursuit of happiness, skewed by something akin to an LSD hit.

Lest we forget the payment of their lives, let us not forget their sacrifices.
