I’m sure someone is already working hard on a plan to find other suitable digs for Agent Orange and use ‘campaign funds’ to pay for it.

Reminds me of what we said in the '80s, that Nancy always had to be on top because Ronnie was only able to fuck up.

Silly me. I had received no notifications over the past several days, thought the thread was dead. Now I remember I turned off notifications, because I was so tired of the motherfucker because he has become increasingly irrelevant. I turned off notifications last weekend, scrolling up I see there have been plenty of posts since then. I  
don’t fucking care anymore about his whining tweets, which are becoming increasingly fewer in number. I do miss bashing the mothefucker, but I am tired of it. I have never kicked a dog when he is down, never have in my entire life until now, but have enjoyed kicking this piece of shit in the balls in the past month. And I hope he gets kicked in the balls for the rest of his (hopefullly) miserable life.

I say, close the thead, forget the motherfucker. I particularly like this little clip below, I think the worst insult to Trump would be to liken him to a dead (female) prostitute. Whiny little bitch. Not to insult prostitutes.

I am done with Trump. I have better things to do in my life.

There was a Sooper Seekrit meeting in the Oval office last night between Individual 1, his staff, Mike Flynn, Rudy Giuliani, and Sidney Powell (remember the lawyer that doesn’t work for the White House), in which it was discussed that Powell be named a special prosecutor to investigate election fraud (the law which creates special prosecutors says that the President can’t name one). It was also discussed that Individual 1 issue an executive order seizing all of the voting machines to examine them for fraud (somehow). And remember, Mike Flynn is calling for Individual 1 to declare martial law and rerun the election.
