There is a deranged man lying on my TV!

I don't know how we are going to survive this insanity. Trump is completely insane. He is right now claiming everyone is going to get a $4,000 tax break, the democrats want to let throngs of immigrants in and all they do is obstruct, he is riffing it on how the military is decimated, bragging about himself, and generally winging off the memory of his campaign.

The man needs to be hospitalized. It is obvious that his advisers know he is mentally ill and that the journalists covering the White House know this too. Who is going to save us? This now goes beyond partisan complaining about a president from another party. This is about a President of the United States who is mentally ill or suffering from dementia and is a clear and present danger to the safety of the planet.

loving families to pass on their life's work to their families. He's pointing to people in the audience saying it is going to hurt the very people in his audience. He's saying democrats don't want loving families to be able to pass their life's work on. Is his audience filled with billionaires? Who knew?

The GOP daring us to shutdown govt. over Dreamers.

Trump starting his campaign to get people to blame Dems for it.

"Dems destroy military, let in immigrants, tax bill good.!”

That is what he is saying. Cover the shitty tax bill over with a govt. shutdown and blame it all on Dems.

I predict Gang Of Pirates fails big time. Everyone knows who hates the US government.

11. Another "on average" statement

On Average, every family will get $4,000. I didn't hear his speech, but I suspect he left out the words "On average". What will actually happen is that if you have 100 people, the top 1 or 2 people will get $40,000 worth of tax breaks and the rest will get nothing. Or the top 1 or 2 will get $50,000 worth of tax breaks, and the other 98 people will pay an extra$10,000. But6 it works out "on average".
