Acckkk, I was hoping to toast the bastards demise but Gallup

has the lying, treasonous fuck up to 40% approval today! The highest in a long, long time. How can this be? Maybe he’s right, he can shoot someone and no one cares. Is his traitorous, abhorrent behavior becoming normalized? So much for my champagne.

Yes indeed, and that got him an 8% bump from a select few who know he's still one scary dude, but were eternally grateful they could say MerryXmas again after 8 years of secular humanistic Obama-induced hell.

Let us be clear and vigilant: The Scrooge in the WH has besmirched the values of Jesus by preaching hate. He is behaving EXACTLY like an anti-Christ.

And that economy thing he's trying to take credit for? It was rising under Obama, but compared to the rate of growth globally, Trump's economy began dipping almost inmediately after he took office.

Bloomberg News:

"All stocks across the globe are valued at $89.9 trillion. U.S. shares make up only 31.6 percent of that total. That’s the lowest proportion since November 2011, or a few months after the U.S. flirted with default. And it’s sunk from the 11-year high of 38.3 percent set in December under then-President Barack Obama."

Trump's ignorance, stupidity, and arrogance have become the new normal; Trump represents the majority of Americans who are just as ignorant, stupid, and arrogant.
