Fred Wellman is absolutely right: Vance is the worst VP in modern history.

Well, look who picked him. The silver lining here is, when the Dump's time is up, up here on Earth, Vance doesn't have the fan base to back him that the Orange Orang did. He's not as intimidating and will be an embarrassment to Repug lawmakers. Then what???

The same, vile scum will still be around, though, the ones who are pulling Trump's strings. Commandant Musk, The Village Idiot Miller, the Town Drunk Hegseth, Dr. Know Nothing Kennedy, et al. There has to be a total clearout of the useless and, frankly, dangerous bunch of inept clowns Trump calls his cabinet.

I revoke her license and throw her in prison. Bondi is an enemy of the people. That is all you have to post on X or FB. I no longer belong to either as they are propaganda machines.

I'm impressed with and proud of Greenland to denying him treatment of an official visit when it wasn't; and he was pretty much stuck on the US Military base there.

Yes, that was an awesome response from Greenland.

JD won't be able to keep that kind of fan base entertained. That's what The Orange Turd does. It's the WWE whatever wrestling crowd. It's all about there short attention span and entertainment.

Trump's is POTUS because of Reality TV. So many believe these shows are real lives. They are real people, but they don't show real lives on any of them shows, and definitely not The Apprentice.

Yes, you are CORRECT! 💙🏆💙

but nothing to worry about because "they" have been trying to raise the Third Reich since Humpster's Germany dream collapsed. Hate is going nowhere as is incompetence. When Americans are faced with evil somehow we band together across all spectrums to protect ourselves. We collectively are the ones who fight to protect and preserve Democracy.

I'm always amazed at how lines of differences of opinions, prejudices, etc. disappear when a monumental tragedy (Oklahoma City bombing (McVey), hurricane, tornadoes, etc.) wipes out swaths of folks. Suddenly, nothing matters except finding and rescuing survivors.

Goodness at the core is who we are. No, we're not perfect but, I marvel at how willing many of us are to repair the breach and seek balance at righting wrongs. We are the majority. We outnumber the tiny minority of MAGA loyalists who are intent on destroying our great nation.

We get back to partisanship and the "rest of the mess" (ROTM) once things begin to look "normal" aka wash, rinse and repeat. Unfortunately for Vance and his ilk ... "We're not going back!"

The occurrences you mention were all sudden short term events. Trump's chipping away of the constitution and the government has been an ongoing day to day thing over a two month period. It's going to take an explosive one day event of horrific proportions to get the kind of reaction needed to band the people together. It also has to be be considered that America has never been this divided along political lines before. What cataclysmic event has to take place to bring the sides back together?

Ed Garland's avatar

There was nothing sudden about the reactions to decades of oppression and bigotry. “Never been … divided along political lines before?” Historic facts do not align with your statement. As to a “cataclysmic event?” Perhaps the pardoned J6 thugs could best respond to your query.

This is all part of ‘growing up’ as a nation. Practically every country in the world has gone through these phases over their history USA is still young & forgets that fact. What is happening now has happened (still does) in all countries. From the Ancient Greeks and before Romans/ Europe & Great Britain - I could go on, but you know what I mean.

Your country is not yet a ‘teenager’ in nationhood terms. You are not alone: some countries seem ‘stuck’ in a particular phase, but they will eventually change. It takes time and patience.

That's so true. Look at what he has done and still trying to do in these past,short but very loooong months. And this is with the 100 plus law cases and all other countries rebelling against him . He just keeps getting more absurd on his TRUTHsocial all night long. We don't have long before we say how did he do all this. And it right in front of now. We need the House And Senate and more in Congress to turn it over to us again . And to keep it . Then trump can just go play golf and make up his stories. Thst now everybody knows not to believe. Even Putin knows and lately has had such a laugh on trump. Poor baby rump.

This is the Wellman post that really pissed JD off. It explained that someone in the DOD authorized the installation of Signal.

Thank you for the link. Wonder how many other government officials have made things happen on Signal with zero records to keep them on the up and up. Not to mention things that have gone on in Mar a Lago with no record keeping.

Malissa Lewis-DeBruhl's avatar

Arrington has already been kicked out of the Pentagon once, for share secrets. She should never have been let back in.

I bet if they were to check, there's not one other person that's been caught sharing our countries secrets, that works in the Pentagon. Unless TRUMP has snunk someone else in recently. The swamp has never been as dark, smelly and full of crap, as not. Anyway, she's been put back in there just for Project 2025.

I like using "JD" as I grew up with those initials in my environment, that is, Juvenile Delinquent. Not that I was one, but little timid me at age 8 was scared of those people. And Vance is a grown-up delinquent, whom I'd rather call Shady Vance (look Mom, it rhymes with JD!), eye shadow and all. What a sinister person. You just know, looking at him, that he's full of rage, upset, annoyance - the kind of person you just don't want to see, hear, or have in your life in any way, and once Fat Boy passes from the scene - after all, he's obscenely fat, out of shape, and full of bile, also quite old - Vance will become President. It would be Son of Satan time for America and the world. Very scary indeed.

So thin skinned Vance can’t take attack, neither can Dump. Boohoo. Hopefully, the country will prevail no matter what fascist rules bring. You won’t be in power for long, but hopefully you will spend the rest of your lives in prison.

I'm convinced that Vance is likely to be just as problematic as Trump. Remember the Zelensky debate meeting with Trump? That situation really highlights my concerns.

Expand full comment
Bluesmurf's avatar

He is a pot stirrer, no doubt, and angry at the world. "t" allows him to show his anger on the outside instead of dealing with it and putting it to rest. He's also a chameleon who will be whatever anyone wants him to be as long as it gets him attention and notoriety - look at his book.

Zelensky was treated poorly. Because Trump owes Russia loads of money, he will always suck up to Putin. Russia bailed Trump out when he couldn’t afford to pay for Trump Tower, that ugly, gaudy building in NYC. He is forever beholden to oligarchs to prop him up. When you think Hannibal Lector was a real person, there are a lot of broken neurones in his mushy brain.

Agree! Let's include Strom Thurman and Barry Goldwater. Thurman, you will recall, was a racist who had a 'Schwarzenegger" alliance with a woman in his household employ.

His POC daughter was never mentioned publicly, however, indications are she and her mother were "well taken care of" during his lifetime in which he also provided her with a stellar private school education. The Book proclaims, "... Nothing new under the Sun."

Why does Canada have to be a victim of Trumps tariffs. Trump should know by now that he won’t achieve anything by doing tariffs against his allies because we will hit trump harder with tariffs.
