Well OF COURSE the Moron has no idea what it says! Look at ALL the words with more then one syllable!

Of course that doesn’t apply to anyone who criticises the Rump.

And his idea of what constitutes religious freedom is truly appalling.

But it only says Congress not King Donnie.

“Fake Amendment!”

I always thought it was longer.

TRUMPACITY – {rhyme}

Our prez has low capacity

for savvy about our nation,

and severely he lacks sagacity;

he’s a mutant regarding mentation. -

- But his scores are high in pugnacity,

audacity, mendacity, – and tenacity

in self-serving greedy voracity.

“John Sullivan” had me thinking maybe he was just about the dullest knife in the drawer. In other words a regular trump supporter—a profoundly ignorant one at that.

But then he mentioned Lenin’s birthday in passing the other day!

During the election, Russian trolls commented frequently. Whenever they cited any tidbit about Russian history, they exposed themselves as working for the Russians. I guess Sullivan could be Nigerian or Croatian, but he’s likely paid from Moscow.

The best way to think of Sullivan’s comments is as a message directly from Putin. In that context, please don’t reply to him. If you have to respond, put it the main body of comments so Putin-leaning sentiments don’t get broadcast like so many smelly farts. Thanks!

John makes deliberately false right wing statements and then later deletes his comments, don’t bother responding to him.

If you are tired of lying, cheating, insulting right wingers, stop voting for them.

Trump’s very essence. “He believes his own lies in a way that lasts for decades,” O’Brien told me. “He’ll tell the same stories time and time again, regardless of whether or not facts are right in front of his face.” And, as O’Brien points out, that’s what makes Trump so dangerous in his current war with the media around so-called fake news. “It’s foundation is that he’s the final arbiter of what is true and what isn’t,” O’Brien said, “and it’s one of the reasons that he’s so dangerous.”Trump isn’t dangerous because he’s an inveterate liar; he’s dangerous because he honestly believes his own lies. Even when confronted with the truth, even over something as trivial as whether or not a painting on his wall is an original or a reproduction, he will stick to the narrative that he prefers.

Sayeth the man who tweets whatever he wants.

Our Founders thought freedom of the press so important they enshrined it in the First Amendment. Trump thinks the press are the “enemy of the people”. As John Mc Cain said of Trump’s hatred of the press “that’s how dictators get started”.

How about the 25th Amendment? Somebody should explain to the dotards in the GOP that they live on the same planet that will be blown to bits if Baby Orange Hitler gets his way.

Yes, someone with integrity and a sense of humanity who’s comfortable with big words and big concepts, not someone who knows the price of everything, but the value of nothing.

@Tom Toles: thank you

Trump has attacked the founders ideas of the first amendment more than anything else on Twitter. (while ignoring Tiffany’s birthday)

The New York Times posted a notice on Friday urging newspaper staff to keep opinions off of their Twitter feeds and Facebook pages. Call it a sign of the times. “While you may believe that you have a legitimate gripe, you’ll most likely be given special consideration because of your status as a Times reporter or editor, publish exclusives on our own platforms first, not on social media.” – new guidelines for reporters on social media.

Someone should look into Trump’s girlfriends.

President Donald Trump is rumored to have a girlfriend in the White House. This is Hope Hicks, the president’s longest serving political aide and the former White House Director of Strategic Communications.

Many members of the MSM and others seem to know or believe that Trump has a regular girlfriend in Florida that he sees at Mar-a-Lago.

Poland invaded Germany in 1939…it’s true…I read it in a German newspaper.

A woman who said Donald Trump groped her has subpoenaed his campaign for documents about “any woman alleging that Donald J. Trump touched her inappropriately.” Trump has denied her accusations and is fighting the subpoena.

And we finally have subpoenas going up against Trump for allegedly sexually assaulting women. What do you want to bet that they have already burned every document that’s being subpoenaed?

One constant about pathological Liars is that they believe what they say is the truth so are they really lying or are they telling the truth? A conundrum? How many times does a lie have to be repeated to become the truth?
