"Will we be president in ten years? Only if we add a couple of terms," said Trump just now in Atlanta, followed by chants of "12 more years!"
"It's worse than Afghanistan" -- Trump on cities run by Democrats
"It's really hurting the Black community" -- Trump on BLM

Trump asks Republican members of Congress to start new investigations of Dems in the middle of his speech.

Oh yeah, you go Obama, piss him off.

a flimsy character...perfidious and despised
Not bad, but adding a trail of Big Macs and Cheetos leading to the helicopter might be more effective.

I think #8.a is Yell at everyone who even mentions the topic.
and #9.a is Fabricate stories about foreign leaders calling you sir, marveling at the perfection of your response, and observing that the press is more unfair to you than to any other world leader going back beyond written language.

“We” ?
The Royal We, obviously.
"Donald Trump’s former Coast Guard chief is backing Joe Biden, in part because of the president’s anti-science stance on the climate crisis and the Covid-19 pandemic.
Retired Admiral Paul Zukunft, who left his post in 2018, told Politico that Mr Trump had caused “irrevocable” damage to the environment.
The military leader pointed to the president’s decision to withdraw from the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement, which has been backed by almost every country in an effort to cut global emissions and curb temperature rise to well below 2C this century.
Adm. Zukunft told Politico that leaving the climate deal without another solution, along with other Trump policies, have damaged America’s reputation on the world stage.
He also described the Trump presidency as an "insurgency" on Americans' constitutional rights.
"I've seen an insurgency, if you will, on our constitutional rights and more power being centralized at the executive level that has really divided our nation. I am concerned that our constitutional rights are being infringed upon from within,' he told Politico."
Adm. Zukunft was one of hundreds of officials who added their names to an open letter, published on Thursday that read: “We are 489 retired Generals, Admirals, Senior Noncommissioned Officers, Ambassadors and Senior Civilian National Security Officials supporting Joe Biden for President.”
Also on the list is another senior military official who served the Trump administration. Retired Air Force General Paul Selva was the second-highest ranking officer in the military until he stepped down in August last year.
Two defense secretaries, Ash Carter and Chuck Hagel, who served under President Obama as well as Eric Edelman, undersecretary of defense for policy in the George W. Bush administration, have added their names to the letter.
The letter reads: "We are former public servants who have devoted our careers, and in many cases risked our lives, for the United States. We are generals, admirals, senior noncommissioned officers, ambassadors, and senior civilian national security leaders. We are Republicans, Democrats, and Independents. We love our country. Unfortunately, we also fear for it. The COVID-19 pandemic has proven America needs principled, wise, and responsible leadership. America needs a President who understands, as President Harry S. Truman said, that “the buck stops here.”
“We the undersigned endorse Joe Biden to be the next President of the United States. He is the leader our nation needs.”

Americans love royalty. Fought a war to make sure the British monarchy remained their head of state in perpetuity. Republicans are merely trying to maintain that tradition.

Normally I am reluctant to wish serious physical harm on anyone, no matter how detestable I find them.
But in Trump's case I have to admit that I can think of few fates more fitting than a truly debilitating case of Covid 19.
With lots of long-term after effects.

Does *anyone* still fall for this idle threat? Do even the gun nuts think this is a real possibility? Are any voters swayed by such threats?
Rhetorical questions, I suppose.

What!!?? It is my understanding that government officials doing their assigned job cannot be individually sued. Is that right? What liability would FBI agents be subject to? Or is this just more BS from the Trump crowd?
