The damage Trump is doing to our world and our country is incalculable and all because our nation elected a narcissistic man completely devoid of empathy; an incompetent madman; a bull in the china shop.
Who Trump is and what his goals are can be readily determined by two quotes from today’s “Daily Gazette” (Schenectady, NY):
“‘When oil prices go up, we make a lot of money,’ Trump wrote on his social media site.” (The Daily Gazette, “Energy secretary won’t rule out oil hitting $200,” 3/13, p. 1)
“President Donald Trump has long fought California’s efforts to curb tailpipe emissions and spur electric vehicle adoption, and last summer he blocked the state’s first-in-the-nation ban on the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035.” (“Trump administration sues California over emissions,” p. 2)
There is also this quote from the NYT:
“President Trump on Thursday announced he was erasing the scientific finding that climate change endangers human health and the environment, ending the federal government’s legal authority to control the pollution that is dangerously heating the planet.
The action is a key step in removing limits on carbon dioxide, methane and four other greenhouse gases that scientists say are supercharging heat waves, droughts, wildfires and other extreme weather.
The “we” Trump is referring to in the first quote is fossil fuel billionaires not the general American population. His policies are designed to discourage clean and renewable energy sources which would provide safe and cheaper energy to the country. His goal is to further enrich the obscenely wealthy and he doesn’t care if that costs lives and increases prices that hurt the general population far more than the wealthiest among us.
Our demented POTUS uses the same phrases and expressions over and over again.
Any question about anything is always returned by him as:
Witch hunt
Radical left ( Democrats )
Antifa
Domestic terrorists
Hoax
Fraud ( voter, election, financial, trade, etc )
“……no one has ever seen anything like this. “
“….I’ve done more than any other POTUS ever elected…..”
“ ……no one can believe how good things have gotten since I was elected…..”
Biden
The border
“ ……we’ve had such great success with…..”
In two weeks ( he’ll get back to you or will have a plan / report to release that never happens )
Please, everyone feel free to use this list when the orange demented POTUS speaks. You can literally play a game between friends and family to see how many of this statements he says in news brief or speech. Generally he hits them all.
Come on Congress. WTF? Invoke the 25th Amendment. Enough is enough. You may all be benefitting now but you will not have a country to call home when orange imbecile is finished.
There is a saying in Polish that my dad always used and that is, “ You can carry around a pitcher of beer until the handle breaks. Then there is a drunken mess to clean up "

Sounds like a hell of a drinking game. Good thing I don't drink; I'd be $hitfaced all the time.
It would be like the “ Drinking Bob “ game we used to play back in the 70’s when The Bob Newhart show was on. Every time his wife said “ Bob “ we all chugged.
The 2026 POTUS drinking game will put you in a coma however. Kids, don’t try this at home.
Anyone who needed a nudge to get out on the streets on March 28 has just gotten one. America- that day will be our chance to tell Trump to go F himself. Let's get 20+ million patriots out there!
If enough of us come out, it will send a sharp warning to Republican enablers of Trump and complacent Democrats. I am hoping for a turnout of more than 25 million Americans. Trump's message is clear: "No more 'Mr. Nice Guy;' I'll do whatever is necessary to retain power, no matter how illegal, unconstitutional, or violent it is." He'll lie, cheat, steal, and defame as he already has done. We must signal to him that we will do what is necessary to stop the nightmarish chaos he has caused in the world.
We are in the majority. We cannot let the 25% (hopefully less than that) of the population with Nazi souls ruin our lives. In the movie "Nuremberg," Russell Crowe stars as Goering. I never knew that one of the psychiatrists, Douglas Kelley, who examined Goering warned Americans that potential Nazis lived among us:
"The movie ends with Kelley promoting his 1947 book — 22 Cells in Nuremberg: A Psychiatrist Examines the Nazi Criminals — in a radio interview, which he conducts while drunk. He warns the other panelists on the radio program that 'there are people like the Nazis in every country in the world today,' including the U.S.
The orange dotard we call POTUS is really pushing the ( so ironic ) Save America act. He knows his numbers are shit and are tanking further in the cesspool he calls leadership.
The dotard didn’t beat Harris by much. If my memory is correct it was only 0.2% or 0.3% . 49.1 to 48.8 or something like that. My numbers may not be exact but you get my point. And, that is that enough Americans, that 0.2% or 0.3% have had enough. Their classic line is “ I didn’t vote for this “. It’s why the dotard knows he can’t get a MAGANAZI elected to the White House, House or Senate. So, in classic orange imbecile management style ( see list from previous post ) he will claim fraud, cheating, ballot box stealing, you name it.
The sad part is most don't seem to notice that Trump has destroyed so much of the foundation of not only our democracy, but our economy. We are headed for even worse damage. It will take decades to recover from his chaos and destruction, if we can recover.
302,000,000 citizens will NOT recover. Planet Earth will NOT recover. Perhaps all humans, certainly most of them, will NOT recover. And what is there about a recovery that would be good? To re-cover is to move back to a former position perceived less toxic than the current one. Our past is just as black as our current behavior, and our future is worse than bleak. The sprint to make DENIAL the national pass time is in hyperdrive. Once installed into the mainstream, the only question is: how many humans will remain alive to practice said Denial? To deny the obvious is idiotic. We live in an idiocracy. It is truly absurd.
Trump wanted to be important. Well he is probably the most hated man in the world right now. Bully for him! What really angers me is the do-nothing Congress where folks are way more concerned about their primaries than the state of the US and the larger world.
Can someone explain to me how 'being concerned about their primaries' translates into supporting Trump when he is unpopular? Are republican voters still supporting Trump backed candidates? Are we sure about this? I am not sure this 'calculation' they are making makes sense politically (besides the fact that they will have to live with this shame for the rest of their lives).
I believe these feckless politicians are truly afraid of what TFG can do to them. And they might be right. Look at how many are throwing in the towel and walking away. Many of them don't have the kind of money it would take to pay for state of the art security and protection; and it might not be enough anyway. TFG is a proven murderer and will not hesitate to kill or maim anyone who crosses him if he sees a benefit.
MTG is crazier than a $hithouse rat, but she is not afraid of TFG. I wonder who are the people who have her back? I'll bet they are not off-the-rack $hitkickers moonlighting for a few extra bucks. I'll bet they are serious.
In red states like Ohio where I live, billionaire, Vivek Ramaswamy, has the money to spread the lies and get the November vote for governor. On TV, radio, mail, etc., the targeted voter is beginning to see the disturbing images and hear the underlying lies and cinematic music that reinforces the hateful message through a bombardment of political advertising. The ads rewire the human mind to believe and follow—just like that targeted war propaganda coming out of the WH to pull in the gamer bros and golfers. Winning, annihilating, destroying the opponent like it’s a game for entertainment and amusement —it’s flipping sick.
Ossoff is wrong - Donald J. Shitshow is a spoiled rich brat con-man criminal psychopath... he never had a grip on reality before. The only thing that is real to him - the only thing that is real for him - is him.
Nothing has changed, except now he is playing with other people's lives on a global stage, utilizing the toy of War. Which amuses him on some cruel level.
Trump creates new distractions every day. He is inventive, destructive, and manipulative, and is becoming more delusional, fractured, and unrestrained as time goes on. His thinking has fewer safeguards, and his reasoning and way of presenting ideas are more clearly distorted. He is likely to become more unstable as his ratings drop and his influence over Congress wanes. Trump has the unwavering support of the Republican Party, especially among southern Republicans. But like the captain in the Cane Mutiny, his paranoia, mental instability, and way of thinking will worsen and become more evident.
Trump has made it clear that our country’s Constitution is flawed and that a union of fundamentally different states cannot work effectively. Our Constitution included questionable compromises to appease the southern states, such as the creation of the Senate and the Electoral College. The southern states were justified in trying to establish their own government, knowing that their values were very different from those of the northern states.
The excitement about Democrats regaining the House and possibly the Senate won't fix the major flaws in our government. Trump and his key MEGA supporters have exposed the Constitution's vulnerabilities. Historically, our nation has been a tug-of-war between the North and the South. The party in power will always try to undermine what the other party achieved while in power.
The history of our country has been a continuous struggle between Republicans and Democrats, characterized by ongoing conflicts and disagreements over the way the government should function and core differences in citizens' rights. We will never resolve the deep-rooted divisions between these two groups.
Trump's megalomania will keep pushing our country toward the realization that we are a doomed nation in our current state. His insanity will remain uncontrollable, and he will keep becoming more erratic and delusional, lying, fabricating realities, and using his followers to carry out his commands, with no way for us to stop him.
As upsetting as we are about his craziness, maybe this will motivate us to fix our flawed government union of dysfunctional, uncooperative, and disengaged states that almost dislike each other and are on the verge of anger. Trump is becoming increasingly unpredictable and frightening each day, and he holds a position of power beyond our current ability to control him. In some ways, his craziness and lack of control might actually be a blessing in disguise if they push us to become more creative, resourceful, and to tap into our existing strengths. You may think this will resolve itself, but what happens is not up to fate; Trump's madness is shaping it.
We hold power; we built this government, and it functions on our taxes. We were once a group of independent, successful, sovereign, and strong states. We can become that again and take back control of our lives from this madman and his followers.
We must remember who we are and the power we hold as states. We were the founders of this government, and we need to take responsibility for our lives and our states. We have unlimited resources, finances, and means to regain control of our lives. We don't have to live among people who think and act differently from us and our neighbors. We may feel helpless and powerless, but we are resourceful and must reclaim our state sovereignty and authority.
I, for one, want to live in a caring, concerned community with like-minded neighbors. I do not want to be associated with selfish, self-centered, and uncaring people. They can live in their states, and I can live in mine. We do not have to pretend to be one when we are not; we never have been, and we never will be. France will never become Germany, and we will never become a country of entirely like-minded people. People think and believe differently, and they will never change their beliefs, and the Republicans will never become Democrats. I would prefer them to exist in their states, separate from mine.
Brilliant. I will never think like THEY do. I will never be a fascist. I will never vote to support billionaires and strip resources from the middle and lower class. But THEY have become so empowered and emboldened, the division between amorality and morality will never be bridged. Trump is a hard act to follow. He has shredded the norms and sown great distrust in all our institutions. Where we will be after he’s gone is anyone’s guess. Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing: I know. This heinous man and his emasculated but dangerous posse make me sick in my soul.
The propaganda videos are just gross. We are witnessing the build up of Trump bringing Red Dawn to life. Go back and watch that movie. The parallels are obvious and chilling. The day they perp walk that MF’er is the day I will be able to begin healing.
I had to go throw up after I read the orange imbecile’s post / tweet. Then I finished the rest of the article.
Disgusting doesn’t even begin to describe how vile that post was. This is something right out of 1930’s Europe where non-Aryans weren’t considered human. The statement that he’s “ proud of ” of killing is IMO a slam dunk for a fascist.
Watch the movie Nuremberg for context and know that Germans did not think that Hitler would destroy their country and exterminate six million Jewish people and those he did not believe were pure enough for Germany. Hermann Göring's testimony is telling. I wonder if the detention centers being acquired at great expense are truly intended for the temporary detention of illegal immigrants awaiting deportation. We know that the conditions in at least some of them are inhumane and that an unknown number of detainees have died in them. We also have observed daily the cruelty of ICE and other DHS personnel who have arrested and jailed US citizens without warrants, most recently punishing people in Vermont. I realize that most will dismiss my concern as extreme, but that is the point. It can happen here and denial is a dangerous choice.
The outlandish cartoons celebrating bombing in Steve's post today are revolting. Also revolting is Hegseth's pandering to military by feeding them lobster and steak to cement their loyalty to the administration while not openly disclosing such actions. History has demonstrated that the Crusades did not end well and Hegseth's orders to exhort commanders to invoke a Christian nationalist message to troops are troubling.
Sadly, for Trump and his fellow pedophile rich guys, it IS all a game - high stakes poker to see who can pile up the most billions, forget about the body count. As one columnist in The Guardian said several months ago - the US would be better off with no government than with the one we have. The GOP are frightened Trump toadies and most of the Dems are spineless cry babies, worried about losing their seats. The MAGA fundamentalists who gleefully say they voted for Evil Orange because he is the Chosen agent to usher in Armageddon may very well get it - but so will billions of innocents. If we ever needed proof of the biblical statement that love of money is the root of all evil, we have it now.
The damage Trump is doing to our world and our country is incalculable and all because our nation elected a narcissistic man completely devoid of empathy; an incompetent madman; a bull in the china shop.

Led by a president who refers to climate change as a ‘hoax,’ the administration is essentially saying that the vast majority of scientists around the world are wrong and that a hotter planet is not the menace that decades of research shows it to be.” https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/climate/trump-epa-greenhouse-gases-climate-change.html

We have met the enemy. And, he is us. ——— Pogo
I wonder if someone will put a bullet in Trump because of exasperation at his constant f*ck ups
A friend replied: don’t I wish!
We are now discovering how anyone could dump a series of gambling casinos into bankruptcy.

Those cheesy videos are disgusting. By the looks of that profile pic following those horrendously bad videos he’ll be dead soon enough.
Every time I wonder “ just how dumb is this motherfucker ? He keeps lowering the bar. I’ve never seen a more utterly useless person in my life.

I fully agree with your analysis.
He won’t destroy my humanity. I refuse to join the death cult. I knew how terrible he was in the early 80’s.
Anyone who can read or listen, knows how bad, at being a human, knew. I believe his followers believe the same and felt they were being validated.

Who gets Trump out of bed every morning? Three people with nose plugs, and a small crane.
Who changes his diaper? 💩💩
It sure isn't Big Melons Melania.

Blood and treasure wasted on a fatalist neo fascist Nero….are we dancing yet..

It's a shame, embarrassing childlike, toddler!
