Trump's Second Term

"See, we are the first nation in the history of the world that acknowledged our rights do not derive from government, they come from God."

"You see those words up there? It says, 'In God we trust.'"

"We're different. We're distinct. We're exceptional, because we acknowledge that right there."

This is possibly the most troubling comment from Trump or any of has acolytes. If you accept that your powers come from god, each and every law can be safely ignored.

OK, so let me rephrase L'il Mikey's fawning speech better for him:
"See, we are the first nation in the history of the world that acknowledged our rights do not derive from government, they come from Donald Jenius Dump."
"You see those words up there? It says, 'In Donald Jenius Dump we trust.'"
"We're different. We're distinct. We're exceptional, because we acknowledge that right there."

Also, Mikey. Just so you know. Trump doesn't give a flying ◊◊◊◊ about you or anything you say. You've given him his grift. Now piss off with all that pious stuff. OK?

You have to keep the leopard flag flying. Sure, it dragged your wife off, but if it sees your flag it may yet be merciful.

No, Rep Luna, the 4th of July was not brought to you by the right to bear arms (and then only if you're in a well-regulated militia.) I will grant you the no taxation without representation part.

Regarding no taxation without representation, that's actually a handy way to remember that it's not some faraway Chinese people who have to put their hands in their pocket to pay Trump's import tariffs, it's the American importers who pay, and then it's their American customers who they pass that increased cost onto - i.e. American voters.

No taxation without representation. No tariff costs except on voters. Yep, that checks out.

“You know, when I did the 250, there was nothing I could do. It was 250. It was 250. So I can't see -- that was my baby. The country happened to be 250 years old. But what I did do is during my first term, I got the Olympics, and I got the Great Soccer. You know that whole deal, right? I got -- we call it soccer. They call it football. I got them both. I got the Olympics.

What a moron. He thinks a 1950s slogan that's just the American version of Gott Mit Uns or Dieu Et Mon Droit or a million other versions of "God's on our side" makes America unusual? If anything it was more unusual before it adopted that during the reds under the beds panic.

And the notion that his rights come from God is equally imbecilic. Does he think he can own guns because of the 2nd amendment to the bible?

I got the Olympics. First, I got the Olympics, and I got it. I was president. And I said, you know, it's a shame. It's a shame. I got the World Cup, and I have the Olympics, and I did it. And you have no idea. President Obama didn't want to make a call to the Olympics. You know why? Because he went to Switzerland or wherever, and he said, you know, if a president goes to get the Olympics, you have to have a deal. You have to be chosen. He went there, and he came in fourth, so he hated them, I guess. And he was unwilling to make a call, and they called me up. The Democrats called me up, actually, from Los Angeles, and I said, I'll do it. I made the call, and I couldn't get the people off the phone because they were so starved for love, because nobody would call them from -- anyway, we made a deal. I got the Olympics. Then we got the World Cup with Johnny. We got the World Cup, and I got them both, and I looked at my people. I said, isn't it a shame? I got these two, but it wasn't in the next four years. It was right after that, and the one after that. And I got the Olympics, and I got the World Cup, and we also have 250, so that's a pretty wild term. But I got these two things that are incredible. Nobody else could have done it. I'm telling you, everybody wanted it. Nobody could have done it. And I said, and I won't be president, because I'll be president for four more years, but it won't be -- and then they cheated and rigged the election. They rigged -- you know, they don't even turn off the cameras when I say that now, because now they know it's true, too. But they knew it was true before. Remember, the cameras used to immediately turn off. You see all those beautiful red lights go off. Now I can say whatever I want, because then they know it's true. But they knew it was true before. It's fake news. That's why they call it. But you know what? This term is much more consequential than if I had done it the more traditional way. This was slightly harder, believe me. It's slightly more dangerous, because they're criminals on the other side that tried to put your president in jail and went after him, just like they do in third-world countries. And we all beat em together. We beat em because our level of popularity was so high.”

If you didn’t post the video I would not believe any sane person could say such drivel. Surely it’s time for Republican leaders to pat him on the back and say “your job is done”.

Won’t happen of course. Sometimes I seriously think I’ve lost my mind and am witnessing a delusional dream. The US should be ashamed and embarrassed.

And the people still worshiping Dump like a god are the same who made such a huge deal about Biden's dementia. The hypocrisy is insane.

That there was no serious threat to gun ownership before the politically motivated far right version of the 2nd Amendment caught on, back when it was more rightfully interpreted as dealing with state/militia rights, not personal rights, adds yet another dimension to the stupidity of the sentiment. Debate over reasonable limits and ways to reduce the associated harms, certainly, but not gun ownership itself.

This sorta begs the question of how sane is Trump, really?
