It's rather amazing where Trump is these days:

- he's the last leader in the US still against mask-wearing, despite the clear benefits and resurgent outbreaks
- he's again taking Putin's side against the US intelligence/defense agencies, with regard to Russkies paying Afghans to kill US soldiers
- he's willing to veto the massive defense bill in order to keep Confederate names on US military bases

These are some bizarre and unpopular positions.
And that's not even getting into that phase when Trump was quoting Nixon.
I think Trump has become the anti-president ...

Trump has been a long-time pious Christian  with a pentecostal's appreciation of Two Corinthians.

And three Leviathans, don't forget.

Two Corinthians, Three Leviathans.

As Trump said, "That was a very close game. Very close. Peter and Paul both loved it!"

Two Corinthians and Three Leviathans?

I think that's referred to as a Full Tabernacle at poker night at Our Lady of the Inside Straight

That he has those who support his every move is even more bizarre.  You've got a democratic mayor in St. Louis and democratic leaning members of this forum are calling for her to resign.  Why can't the republican leaning members of this forum once in a while criticize their own elected officials?

More CNN bullshit

https://www.cnn.com/2020/07/01/politics/donald-trump-masks-coronavirus/index.html

Which part do you think is bullshit?

I think the part where Trump claims to support masks is bullshit, given he follows it with "...if they want to." But that's on him.

As we descend into the Donnie's circles Hell- Limbaugh (heh) decay, despair, depression--the webs of lies false promises and deceipt meticulously crafted by nut-job/teabag/contract with America Republicans for the last 25 years have ensnared democracy and is starting to choke the breath from it. We need a decent leader to show us our true path and off the road to Perdition.

However as we go to hell in a MAGA hat , I can take some comfort that Red keeps a watchful eye on municipal corruption in Toledo while kid is a watchdog for truth in media!!

Keep up the good work boys!


As for bizarre positions-a little variety never really hurt anyone except I once threw out my back.

If the only ones you criticize are the ones who show principles and integrity, that's not a good sign for your party.

I think someone, probably Ivanka, finally explained to trump how weak and dumb he looks parading around with no mask like some obese Mr. Magoo.

A little more justice every day.

AZs and OPs everywhere, especially on Red’s corner which is by all reports a festering hotbed of confederate leaning along with other form of perverse treason.

A Lakota perspective on Friday's planned ponderosa wildfire around Rushmore.   

Even this very conservative lady at my wife's church has deviated from her Trumpista ways to declare what a bad idea the fireworks ceremony is.   It's tinder dry here,  due to a fairly dry year we're having in the hills.
