1. K&R!

[Rhiannon12866]

2. Most honest postmortem of the day!

[SheltieLover]

3. Absolutely!

I'll bet everyone in media is kissing his ass because he's dead.

Good riddance to rotten garbage.

4. There's the stuff we know we don't know, and there's stuff we don't know about that we don't know...

Or some such shit. Actually it kind of makes sense though not necessarily the way he said it. We knew he was a liar, but maybe not all the things he was lying about. We didn’t know that we did not know he was a pedaphile (for example). At any rate I hope him and. Cheney and Bush all have a special corner in hell waiting for them.

5. Lied us into a war, didn't provide troops with adequate equipment, troops shed their blood for what?

This be on *someone's* head and in their *account* of what did you do in your time on earth...

[Rhiannon12866]

6. Well said.

8. Another version of a 'Donald'. I wouldn't want to be you. Was it all worth it?

How you feeling about your life now, huh? You got suckered by the Enemy. The unseen Enemy who comes but to kill, steal and destroy.

Oh, wow, served long in government. Outstanding accomplishments.

Where are you, Donald, and how are you feeling about the unknown that was not known but now is known by you?

9. I have Mary Trump's book and I'm convinced he has no conscience.

He believes he's entitled and he's always right. And if anyone contradicts him, they're always in the wrong.

11. It's actually frightening scary that we had and still have an entity in our midst such as he.

And in the highest office in the land to boot.

Hi, dear one.
Hoping you're as well as can be.
And your lil luvbug! He's so sweet. A hug and smooch from me.

12. I still find it very hard to believe that he was actually POTUS, of all unqualified despicable people

And I am even more incredulous and sickened that there are still people who support him, even now!

Thank you, my friend. My best to you and your little one as well...

7. Then son of bitch would say things like "sometimes you go to war with the army you've got not...

the army that you want."
After he ignored the experts on the region and sent our troops into to be killed and maimed. It was "going to be a cakewalk" and Iraq's oil money was going to pay for it all and we'd be in an out in weeks.

[sprinkleeninow]

10. Yes, I forgot about those remarks. Cold, callous, cruel.

13. Fuck him

I'm glad he's dead, he lived way to long.
