Kristi Noem is but one example of our country’s moral rot. She has been extreme as it gets, yet has been an elected government official for 15 years now. She has never lost an election. So now we all have her.

Marsha Blackburn is of similar thinking and results. She opposes equal pay for women, but the women of Tennessee keep electing her.

You cannot help people unless they are willing to help themselves. Thus we have this moral rot that is our own doing.

You are 100% correct. And the same reason we still have the rancid Ted Cruz and the freakish Josh Hawley.

Yep. I lose count of the miscreants. Voters could have easily rejected both of them, but chose to embrace them. Sadder yet — their opponents were as good as it gets. It is just moral rot.

A self professed pussy grabber as commander in chief. Mothers, hide your daughters. A self professed pet killer in charge of homeland security. People, hide your pets.

Noem's handling of the Covid crisis is proof of how inappropriate her appointment to head Homeland Security is. She is a totally incompetent administrator, a small-minded cruel individual who is a female version of narcissist D.

I saw a woman with a shirt depicting Trump, arms widespread, in front of the White House. Written across the top, in large letters, was "DADDY"S HOME." The ignorance of his supporters can not be fathomed by our side.

Nor can it be overstated.

Trump hates animals. Whenever he wants to disparage someone, he says that they are "animals" or that they "choked like a dog." I will take animals over humans any day of the week.

He plainly hates everything. No presence of heart, period.

Trump proudly and pathologically sports the Joseph Conrad-imagined heart of darkness.

The human animals are the worst, since they suppurate evil and bite not by dint of nature but by choice.

Exactly!

Our species, in fact, is the only cruel species that has ever stained our planet's long history. Other animals kill based on instinct and the need to eat, with the possible exception of bored housecats who encounter a mouse; even then, I doubt there is an intent to be cruel. The ugliness of the "meat" industry, sports like bull-fighting and dog and horse racing as well as cock fighting are exercises of intentional cruelty with no regard for the animals' suffering. Image of God? my ass.

Another poor choice. HHS is also in charge of FEMA….just wait until a blue state disaster goes unaided. Every blue state has red voters. The midterms are coming…

It will be sad indeed when New Jersey needs help dealing with a hurricane. This is what happens when gangsters get elected.

Trump claims he is going to make the nations of the world and their people respect us. I doubt it:

Noem also killed that poor, helpless billy goat in cold blood. His only "crime" was being in the

yard when she put a bullet in her dog. What a vile miscreant she is.

My friend, financial advisor, says his clients actually believe prices and interest will drop under Trump. He tries to educate them about the inflationary effect deporting migrants will have on food and construction, but, to no avail.

I’ve been in a 2 year long email conversation with a friend’s son with a college degree who’s an Independent. He thinks all news is slanted and instead gets his info online from sources like Joe Rogan which he somehow believes is more accurate. He is wedded to his cynicism and contrarian views. My best efforts haven’t moved his opinions at all. But, I’ve learned more about how powerful the right wing disinformation campaign has become. We need to meet them where they are with a different message. They don’t read newspapers or watch MSM news.

Or perhaps an economy that is actually crashing will get their attention.

Krisiti Noem is unfit, as a caring human being, to lead any office. (I am reminded of something I heard years ago - "If 15 million people believe in a dumb idea, it's still a dumb idea.") She now will assume the role of Commandant Kristi and look so good in her Gestapo outfit as she helps round-up human beings, like cattle on her South Dakota ranch. I live near South Dakota and Kristi Noem. I have a Native American friend from South Dakota who just said - Now you are about to experience what we have lived our entire lives under......

This all looks like national suicide.

I do believe there will be internal chaos in the next government. When nobody is leading everyone else attempts to be the leader. There will be non-stop grasping for power and absolutely no unity. Everyone being chosen is a mini trump.

Beware, psychopath Trump and his shared psychotic cult of life’s losers are coming to eat your pet American values and freedoms. Let’s make sure they choke from compulsive, omnivorous self-engorgement. And no Heimlich maneuver will be offered to save them as they struggle to take their last breaths.
