Previous thread, which was approaching the mandatory 10,000-post shutdown point: [How has Former President Trump pissed you off today?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-has-former-president-trump-pissed-you-off-today/777640) During the campaign and even after being elected, Donald Trump has proved again and again that he’s not going to change from being the same arrogant, orange, corrupt, bullying, bigoted, misogynistic, self-centered, unfiltered braggart with zero interest in public policy that that he’s always been. But what has he done to prove that on the day that you post here? ---

Trumply weeds, those nasty things bother us fall, summer and spring. They spread through the grass and over our gardens looking showy and crass without asking pardon. Poison them, stomp them, pull them out. They keep coming back no matter how much we shout. GET OFF OF MY LAWN YOU TRUMPLY WEED! I’VE HAD ENOUGH OF YOUR LYING, NEFARIOUS DEEDS! ---

It would be worse than that. It would be like Trump lawsuits about the 2020 election. ---

Since twitter and facebook have largely neutered Trump, it makes things so much easier to ignore the drips and drabs of BS that manages to reach more mainstream press. I for one want to continue ignoring him and letting the lack of attention continue to his atrophy. Tucker Carlson is trying mighty hard to take on the shock jock sucker of oxygen out of the room mantle. I deny him at least my clicks. Let these numbnuts starve from lax of oxygen. ---

As so many have said, it still lives. Breathing free air, instead of in a government facility with one of QtM’s colleagues as its physician. Jiminy Crikits, its not even human to me anymore ---

That would certainly work, too! //// Here’s a story I hope gets more play. For anyone wondering what Erik Prince was up to over the past 4 years: > **[Ex-British spy, Erik Prince, and Project Veritas reportedly tried to entrap...](https://theweek.com/speedreads/982633/exbritish-spy-erik-prince-project-veritas-reportedly-tried-entrap-trumps-national-security-adviser)** > > The latest Speed Read,/speed-reads,,speed-reads, breaking news, comment, reviews and features from the experts at The Week > Erik Prince, founder of private security contractor Blackwater and brother of former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, recruited a former British spy in 2016 to professionalize the undercover operatives at Project Veritas, the conservative sting video shop run by James O’Keefe, [_The New York Times_ reports](https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/13/us/politics/mcmaster-fbi-trump-project-veritas.html?smid=tw-share), citing documents and people involved in the subsequent operations to discredit perceived “deep state” enemies of former President Donald Trump inside the U.S. government. > > The ex-undercover British spy, Richard Seddon, trained conservative operatives first at the Prince family ranch in Wyoming, then at a large, $10,000-a-month house near Georgetown University. Female undercover operatives tried to entrap FBI agents, sometimes using fake dating app profiles, and State Department employees, [the _Times_ reports](https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/13/us/politics/mcmaster-fbi-trump-project-veritas.html?smid=tw-share). But “one of the most brazen operations of the campaign” was an attempt to take down H.R. McMaster, Trump’s second national security adviser. I guess this is the illegal FBI meant to keep tabs on enemies of the State. Meaning anyone who crossed Trump. ---
