Not my emphasis] and Wong K Ark. > > It’s batshit crazy. You have just won the understatement of the century trophy. There’s no way anyone can beat that. The woman was born in California. Her parents were here legally and were not diplomats for another country at the time of her birth. So, the real questions arise are: why are they harping about Indiana? Is it because it has the word “Indian” in it? Also, did these same people whine about Obama being president? (Yeah, I think I already know the answer to that.) There whole bit is a very large and unhealthy dose of bigotry along with a complete understanding of the constitution and subordinate laws. “Batshit crazy” is a rather tame term for whatever their level of lunacy should be described as. ---

You should! So what if there are more than 70 years left in the century? Nobody’s topping that. Should you share the honor with the loons in question, though? I don’t think anyones topping their level of lunacy in that time either. ---

The Manchurian Cantaloupe spoke in my area on Monday. I was going to protest, but the weather and my health precluded that. Anyway, the theater where he spoke (FOR ONE HUNDRED MINUTES!!!) has 2,400 seats, but the campaign claimed 3,500 attendees. ---

I got a BS fundraising E-mail grift from Tan the Conman this morning. The whole thing is filled with lies. Of course it started out with > Patriot, > > The Left thinks that if they bury me with enough witch hunts and intimidate my family and associates that I’ll eventually throw up my hands and give up on our America First movement. I don’t think the Left thinks that at all. What those of us who are actual patriots believe is that he will continue to con, delay, deny, and excuse his own criminal behavior. Then he dropped this gem. > I walked away from a very nice life where the media never said a single mean thing about me. Excuse me? I remember a lot of bad press for that conman over the years. Maybe it didn’t make it far from the East Coast, but the press certainly did mention him, some of it postive sadly, but some of it negative then, too. More gems. > I knew the price I’d have to pay for running a campaign that promised to take on the Deep State, the Open Borders Lobby, global special interests, and the Soros Money Machine. There is no such thing as the Deep State. There is no “Open Borders” lobbly, "global special interests, of course, is not that far off of “globalists” and you should already know what that’s code for. And “Soros Money Machine”? That’s a laugh. Then he lied about having an emotion. > And I don’t regret it even for a second! What you regret is that you are not still ensonced in the elected office you managed to steal in the first place. What do you know? He then gets something right. > Patriot, we have a country to save. And I’m not giving up now – and I know you aren’t either. Yep. I’m doing my part to save the country. By not voting your lying criminal deluded self back into office. And he wants me to piss all over math, too, while he’s getting pissed on by whor…while he’s pissing on basicc grammar. > Please make a contribution to SAVE AMERICA as our many enemies try to destroy our movement – for 1,300% impact. Now, if I knew his enemies could have “1,300% impact” by destroying his so-called movement, I’d fork over my life savings. And we have a funny bit from the PAC that sent this grift out: > We believe this is an important way to reach our grassroots supporters with the most up-to-date information regarding President Trump, and we’re glad you’re on our team. > Thank you for joining Team Trump. It’s because of grassroots supporters like YOU that we’ve been able to consistently call out the Fake News media EVERY SINGLE TIME they try to spread misinformation or outright LIES about the important work President Trump is doing to SAVE AMERICA. Reaching grassroots supporters directly is CRITICAL if we’re going to Save America from Joe Biden and the Left. But, in order to do that we need to provide supporters with the most up-to-date information on all of our efforts. Look, you shitheads, I did not join your freaking team of traitors and crooks. And you have yet to tell the truth, just like your hero has never had the guts to do in his entire life. Truth is a completely foreign language to him. ---

He had an entire Comedy Central roast before he was elected president. And Seth Meyers famously said, “Donald Trump has been saying he will run for president as a Republican, which is surprising since I just assumed he was running as a joke.” People were saying mean things about him for years before he ran for president. ---
