  1. He makes it up as he goes along, because he doesn’t actually know ANYTHING!

  2. My wife’s grandfather lived independently to 100, and finally to 104, sharp as a tack to the very end. My own grandparents all lived into their 90s, except one who was killed in a (riding) accident in the 1930s, after fathering my mother and 11 siblings.

  3.  @nancytrevino9750 Too bad he wasn’t born a little later. There is now an effective “gene therapy” for multiple myeloma, work my wife was actively part of. As I understand it, it is almost 100% effective.

  4. If Americans vote incorrectly in November, the nightmare is just beginning.

  5.  @dilmeral In every other society, the older you are, the more respect you got! Efforts to move out the old and, no doubt, install themselves are self-serving. The new ideas are a crap-shoot, whereas tradition is time-proven to work, in most ways. Refinements can and should be made, but I predict that if Trump takes over, the present systems, i.e. government, will have been 10X better than the one that replaces it.

  6.  @bauhnguefyische667  One thing is certain, LB had nothing to do with it! That said, her sexual behavior in that theater was the LEAST of her/our problems. People have been making out in dark theaters from the beginning! If we are going to fault LB, it has to be for her politics, first and foremost, WHICH ABSOLUTELY SUCK! If that’s not enough to criticize her for, bitterly, nothing is!

  7. A LOT of Americans must be insane, then. It must be that sense of superiority and invincibility that American have. I happen to think it is capitalist values, or, perhaps, a near complete LACK of values…

  8. I’ve had that happen, probably 40 years ago, when I was 30. It’s called “getting tongue-tied.” It happens. I hate Trump, but there are plenty of better complaints to make about him!

  9. “The Deep State” is a myth. Yes there is corruption, and yes, there is misbehavior, in the various institutions, but nothing organized, especially on a wide basis, which is to say, THERE IS NO DEEP STATE. Yes, the state IS IN FACT organized against criminals! There is no evidence that ANYTHING is organized along political lines. Anyone have a problem with that? Bring evidence, or don’t bother!

  10. Trump did a terrible, terrible job. Among other things, he killed several hundreds of thousands of Americans than necessary, of COVID, by promoting quack cures, and by suppressing the vaccine. He separated thousands of little children from their parents, without keeping records, so hundreds or more never saw their parents ever again. He befriended all of America’s worst enemies, and insulted all our best friends! Trump never did ANYTHING for the American people, except the rich, whom received TRILLIONS in tax cuts, trillions that went right on the national debt. The list goes on, almost to infinity! In the process, Trump has already done dire damage to America’s institutions, and promises to do much more. Trump will DESTROY AMERICA if he is re-elected.

  11. I hate to say ANYTHING to defend Don the Con/Orange Jesus, but I suspect that when Trump mixes people up, e.g. Nancy Pelozi with Nikki Haley, it is not actually the people he mixes up, but the names. And it is not that he doesn’t know their names, either. I hate to report that I am suffering from a similar syndrome, as I have for most of my life. When I seek to remember a name, spontaneously, it is almost like picking one at random! I often, when I am not thinking about it much, come out with the wrong name… It is not crucial, but it can be embarrassing. Trump’s problems may be much more serious than mine!

  13. I’ve got bad news for Orange Jesus, Hitler never lost HIS grip, until we killed him. OJ is ACCELERATING toward disaster, for him or for us. We had better make up our mind! What will it be, democracy and freedom or fascism and tyranny? Whoever you are, don’t think that YOU will be unaffected. Fascism respects NOBODY.

  14. If Marchan gave Trump 20 years, that all by itself might tip the balance. The truth is, Trump has done NOTHING to qualify for leniency. In fact, he has shown contempt for the court. He has threatened witnesses, judges and their families! Trump, more than anyone else I know, deserves a maximum sentence.

  15. Everybody has “brain malfunctions” (or am I the only one?), most of which are fleeting and funny, and certainly not a serious issue. I must admit, however, that Trumpolini is having a lot of them! Reports are that Trump’s bathroom, full of top secret documents, was not locked! Trump may be 3 years younger than Biden, chronologically, but Biden has lived a healthy lifestyle his entire life; Trump has NOT! Biden’s circulatory system is, without doubt, much healthier than Trump’s! Furthermore, Biden is currently conducting the affairs of the state, smoothly and effectively, without complaint from anybody! The truth is, virtually everything Trump and his allies are saying is a bald-faced lie! The GOP has been doing this for a long time. They broadcast blatant lies in the full knowledge that though many will reject them, just as many will take them in without question… It’s a matter of flinging * at a wall to see what sticks. In America, A LOT STICKS. And that is a big part of the Republican game plan. Sow confusion…

  16. Make it a Harris/Biden ticket, with Harris in the leading role, and we get the best of both worlds, the wisdom of experience, and the vigor of youth. I think THAT would be a winning combination.

  17. Sounds like TOO MUCH is going wrong to be real!

  19. I don’t care about that, personally. The rest of her behavior, the unruliness, the rowdiness, the inconsideration of others matter far more to me than her sexuality (people have made out in theaters forever). Progressive people shouldn’t care much about the proto-sex either.

  20. The really big question must be, “do we want perhaps the most infamous criminal in US history, in the most powerful office in the world?” Similarly, “do we want a malignant psychopath, aka a psychopath, in the White House?” Those of us who know what a psychopath is know that Trump is, in fact, one! Do we want to entrust our entire future to a notorious criminal and psychopath?

  21. I doubt that it will matter that much. MAGAs don’t have actual morals, despite all their whining.

  22. What’s terrible is that Trump has taken over maybe 50M voters, and might possibly become POTUS, and if he does,life will very likely become HELL..

  23. Putting Trump in prison would go a long way toward quelling the current crisis. It would dissuade quite a few voters who would have voted for Trump, it would make it difficult to campaign, and even if elected, it would make it difficult to (I hesitate to say “run the country,” because THAT is NOT what he plans to do). It would make it difficult for Trump to do evil! Judge Marchan should put Orange Jesus in prison for 4 years, the standard maximum sentence, or more. Trump has committed this crime at least 34X, making him a serial, habitual criminal. It was not a “first offense!” It was a serial offense committed over a decade or more. Furthermore, his behavior in and out of court has been despicable! He has done nothing to deserve leniency… He should get prison, and if he is treated anything like his 1/6 soldiers, he should get a long sentence. If other insurrectionists got as much as 22 years in prison for their roles, how much time should their leader get? I happen to think he should get at least 22 years! If Trump is not stopped, 330M American will live to regret it, likely for generations. Possibly for centuries. If we let that happen, it will be conclusive. There is no intelligent life, whatsoever (except whales, dogs and cats) in the known universe.

  24. One thing should be clear, after Trump’s first conviction, he became a felon with a prior conviction. After that, he became a felon with 2 prior convictions, and after that, a felon with 3 prior convictions and so on, through 34 convictions. Having prior convictions is an aggravating factor, carrying a longer sentence. He can be sentenced to 4 years per conviction WITHOUT the aggravating factors. With them? What? 6 years per conviction? If Judge Marchan would simply sentence Trump to 6 years per conviction, even if he suspended all but one of them, which would be an unnecessary favor to Trump, THAT might solve our entire problem.

  25. You have First Amendment rights, that is clear. What may not be so clear is that not all speech is legal (you cannot yell “fire!” in a crowded theater, unless there is a fire, or commit fraud by lying), and even legal speech may have consequences. It may be perfectly legal to assert Nazi sympathies, but it would also be perfectly legal for others to hate you for them.

  26. Right, but does Mexico have anywhere NEAR the manufacturing prowess and capability of China? I don’t think so. Those things would have to be developed in Mexico, long before it would become a major source of many imports. Sure, we can get millions of junky little trinkets from Mexico, but what we need are microchips and circuitboards, batteries, solar cells, steel, chemicals, electronics, machinery and automobiles. Can Mexico make those, as well as China does?

  27. NOT imprisoning Trump could also be considered to be politically motivated, as much as putting him in jail would.

  28. Actually, he’s proud because he passed it, totally disregarding the fact that it is an EASY test, intended to distinguish normal brain function from dementia. One does not have to smart to pass that test (as Trump seems to think), you must merely not have dementia! Trump seems to think if he doesn’t have dementia, he’s ready to rock! Well, I think he DOES have dementia, despite him “having passed the test.” If taking that test is consistent with everything else he does, HE CHEATED.

  29. The high and low energy phases, as well as the confusion, might be an indication of manic-depression, or, perhaps, drug use. He is old and desperate to perform. He might be taking drugs to get through… Trump is definitely mentally ill, by some cause or another, with a combination of symptoms that may be unique. Unique and terribly, terribly dangerous. We should NOT put a psychopath in the White House!

  31. Trump was babbling. “His people” (~his base) gave him a break when he was rebellious and fun, but now that he is a cowering loser? Not so much! The smarter among his devoted followers are peeling off. He’ll be lucky if he has anybody left by November!

  32. They need to take a REAL mental competency test… and if they won’t take it, they should be disqualified!

  33. Calling Kamala “unfit” is simply a deflection of a charge Democrats have been making against Trump for years. Turning that around, and claiming that Kamala is “unfit” is a perfect example of “deflection.” It is, of course, nothing but a BIG, FAT LIE!

  34. Chansley is a wacko! Virtually nothing he says makes sense. Virtually nothing he believes is true! Unfortunately for us, he has achieved a certain amount of notoriety, so he gets covered by the (lying) MSM… Everything he says that I know about, in particular the science, that Chansley makes charges about, is a colossally stupid misunderstanding, if not a flat-out lie.
