Tim Walz: "Think of how easy it would be to be a damn Republican. 'Oh, what should I wear today? This stupid frickin' red hat. What should I say today? I don't know, just make sure it's cruel. Who do we listen to? That guy -- the felon in the White House.'"

In a couple years the Times will run a correction in tiny print noting that during Trump's second term he was a corrupt authoritarian fascist but they they neglected to note it during their coverage at the time. If he allows them to continue publish that is.

Will that same media make a serious issue of the MF's health? Same answer -- 

📌Not one question was asked about this gruesome-looking death hand today. This, after video of repeated leg drags, and bloated ankles. Trump's morbidly obese, 79, and in obvious failing health. It's a big fucking story. Unless those kinds of things were just reserved for Joe Biden ...

I don’t want to give anyone false hope but this was Queen Elizabeth’s hand two days before she passed.

Russifying the US defense industry --

 

The corruption laced Russian defense industry controlled by Putin cronies has produced a vast amount of defective and third rate gear. That is one of the key reasons Russia has failed to conquer Ukraine. Now Trumpers want to Russify the U.S. defense industry.
