The fact that Trump is trying to shut down every organization that speaks truth to his malevolent power speaks volumes. He's a corrupt, profoundly incompetent criminal who will continue to drain the US of its very heart and soul.

Which Past Fascist Does Trump Most Resemble? The Incompetent One.

Our leader is a science fiction writer. Not a good SF writer. But his pen is large and nuclear tipped.

The Forgotten Dystopian Vision That Explains Trump’s Canada Obsession

Crockett: "I understand when people say they are concerned about our debt, as they should be. But if you really want to look at the problem, it's probably with the Trump administration. We know that that administration, the last time they were in, ran our debt up an additional $8 trillion."
