When the hacks question Trump as frenzied and rude and disrespectful

as they did Biden last night , I will stop seeing them as a player and motivator to the destruction of democracy.

Our country is fucked from so many angles. Will we survive it? God dammit I hope so!

I expect fear is at the heart of it. There's no doubt attacking Trump could raise just as many clicks as fluffing him, if not more. The man is not popular....

They forget that the Magats can't really tell what is weird bizarre behavior unless it's pointed out.

People used to pay to tour asylums and laugh at the 'loonies', and I'm sure many would click to do so at home....

Every time I hear this Joe McCarthy smear of Thomas Jefferson's party name (and it bleeds over in 'left' wing media too)
It makes me think of the opposition:
They can't raise taxes
They can't keep campaign promises; gas, grocery prescription drug prices
They can't tell the truth or be honest, always making sh*t up
They can't govern
They can't even appoint their own speaker!

That's why I forever call them the 'Republican't party.
Democrat party? Republican't party!
