You know, you’ll put out a little tweet: “I’m going to be with the veterans today.” They’ll say, “Donald Trump is in a Twitter-storm.” These are sick people. - According to Trump. ---

Thanks for the updates. It actually sounds like he’s getting worse. Confiscated their water? WTF?? I guess the restraint he was forced to exhibit during his TV address (because of having electrodes attached to his balls) caused a buildup of gas in his system, and he had to blow extra hard. ---

I keep going back and forth between thinking this Is now suicide by forcing impeachment to claim martryhood and thinking nah,this is Trump he’s just that unhinged. ---

> [@wolfman](#): > > I keep going back and forth between thinking this Is now suicide by forcing impeachment to claim martryhood and thinking nah,this is Trump he’s just that unhinged. Nahhh, this was just resident Chump being Chrump. Repeating all the bullshit he’s always spewed and doubling - tripling - down on ALL of it. And Meuller and the Russia investigation move on inexorably. The “gossip” now is, he will resign as Meuller wraps up. I think he’s too damn arrogant to resign. I don’t think that is enough. I don’t think simple impeachment is enough. I won’t be happy with anything less than prison and financial ruin for him and all his cronies. ---

> [@asahi](#): > > These rallies are just orgasms of collective white suburban rage … I think this is a bit off-base. The lion’s share of the white suburbs did _not_ elect the shit-gibbon, and most suburban whites support some form of normalcy over these rivers of gibbon shit. You need to tar some other group with that brush. Perhaps we should call them something like “Pocketistas” because they occur in isolated pockets of stupid. ---
