Trump’s New Plan to Kill Obamacare Would Cost People More and Make Insurance Companies Richer

Posted by Mark NC on November 8, 2025 at 10:58 am. 1 Comments :

One thing that Donald Trump deserves credit for is his steadfast determination to make life more difficult for most Americans, while enriching himself, his billionaire pals, and the wealthy corporations that suck up to him. Conversely, he is just as committed to creating hardship for anyone who is insufficiently worshipful.

In the midst of the longest government shutdown in United States history (breaking the record set in 2018 by, you guessed it, Donald Trump), the American people are being traumatized by the cutoff of critical SNAP benefits, families are without services from Head Start, airports are trying to stay open without sufficient staff, including air traffic controllers, and so much more chaos and calamity. Meanwhile, Trump is partying at Mar-a-Lago and cavorting with foreign dictators that he admires and seeks to emulate.

The Trump Shutdown is being prolonged because Trump and his Republican MAGA minions in Congress are adamantly opposed to extending the health insurance subsidies provided by the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare). They even refused a temporary one year extension just to get the government open and resume the services enumerated above. And now Trump has provided his proposal for a new healthcare plan that would be disastrous for anyone stuck with it. He posted the plan on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, saying that…

“I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over. In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!”

Trump's latest effort to KILL OBAMACARE makes zero sense.What makes him think there would be better, cheaper insurance to buy from an unregulated market? That doesn't exist now. Insurance companies would still be able to gouge people.He could use that same money to fund MEDICARE FOR ALL!

As usual, the plan proposed by Trump is an incoherent mess that fails to achieve any beneficial goal. In fact, it would only make things much worse. For Trump’s plan to work it would require regulations that are in Obamacare that he would be eliminating. Insurance companies could go back to denying preexisting conditions. They wouldn’t be required to fully cover preventive care. Companies could raise premiums and cancel patients at will.

Furthermore, Trump’s plan would destroy the risk pool that enables lower premiums. Also, what would happen if people didn’t spend the allocated money on insurance and later were not covered when they got sick? And what makes him think there would be better, cheaper insurance to buy without Obamacare? It would just be returning to the old system where insurance companies could gouge people unfettered by regulation.

As a justification for his plan, Trump posted a graphic on Truth Social that showed that the stock of seven health insurance companies performed well over a period of 15 years, increasing from between about 400% to 1,200%. Which is pretty average over that long a time frame. During the same stretch there was a similar increase in the Dow (330%), S&P 500 (480%), and NASDAQ (900%).

Trump posted this graphic on Truth Social today. What's his point? That health insurance stock did well over 15 years?FYI: During the same time period there was a similar increase in the Dow (330%), S&P 500 (480%), and NASDAQ (900%).If Trump really cared, he could support Medicare for All!

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-08T09:22:12.816Z

Trump is using this as his reason for Republicans to reject the one year extension offered by Democrats to end the Trump Shutdown. So Trump and the Republicans are deliberately prolonging the shutdown because they would rather people be forced to pay more for health insurance, or lose it altogether.

However, Trump is ignoring a much more obvious solution to the problem. He could just use the same money that he’s proposing to send out in cash to fund Medicare for All. Which is a real, financially viable option that would actually benefit people rather than corporations. Which is, of course, why Trump and the GOP are so fervently against it.

UPDATE: Later the same day, Trump posted another comment on this subject that managed to exceed the stupidity of his prior comment. He insisted on “TAKING THE ‘FAT CAT’ INSURANCE COMPANIES OUT OF THE CORRUPT SYSTEM OF HEALTHCARE” and instead pay “HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS…DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE.” They would then buy their own insurance from the very same “FAT CAT” insurance companies rather than through Obamacare. And for some unexplained reason they would get a “MUCH BETTER POLICY, FOR MUCH LESS MONEY,” despite not having the collective power of the government program and the regulations that protect the consumer’s interests. Great plan, huh?

Trump Slobbers Over Hungarian Dictator Viktor Orbán, Whose Unchecked Power He Envies and Craves

Posted by Mark NC on November 7, 2025 at 1:51 pm. 2 Comments :

Three days ago Republicans suffered a massive electoral blowout to reenergized Democrats, in which they lost races for critical offices and issues across the country. And they lost by surprising margins. So naturally, Donald Trump has returned to the White House to refocus his attention on the issues that matter most to the American people.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

And if you believe that, I have a ballroom to sell you in Washington for a mere $4 trillion. The truth is that Trump is continuing to ignore the needs and desires of the American people. He is prolonging a government shutdown that is creating severe hardships for millions. He is fiercely pushing to cut off SNAP benefits for needy children and seniors. And he isn’t doing anything to lower the cost of living, which he promised to do on day one of his second occupation of the White House. We are now on day 292.

SEE THIS: Republicans Learn Nothing From Their Electoral Spanking, but Trump Learns to Savor Dictatorship

What Trump is doing is sending $20 billion to his dictator friend in Argentina, Javier Milei. And he is pardoning the felonious billionaire who helped to launch his own crypto business. And on Friday, Trump carved out some of his precious time to entertain the totalitarian prime minister of Hungary, Viktor Orbán, at the newly redecorated Palace of Trump – aka the White House.

Trump was effusive in his praise for Orbán, who he adoringly called “a great leader” who is doing “a fantastic job.” Trump gushed that…

“I stick up for Viktor Orbán. Not a lot of people do because in many cases they’re jealous. They wish they did what he did. They would have no problems if they did what he did.”

Trump: "I stick up for Viktor Orbán. Not a lot of people do because in many cases they're jealous. They wish they did what he did. They would have no problems if they did what he did."

Indeed. Dictators have no problems getting what they want done because, if anyone refuses, they mysteriously fall out of high-rise windows. And Trump is being uncharacteristically honest when he talks about how other leaders are jealous of Orbán. In fact, Trump is referring to himself. He wishes that he could be as domineering as Orbán. He is even employing the Orbán playbook of subjugating the legislature to the autocratic executive, and by taking control of the media through wealthy surrogates who buy up news organizations and reform them into pro-Trump propaganda mills.

MORE HERE: PROPAGANDA WORKS! Fox News and Other MAGA Media Deliver Disciples for Dear Leader Trump (Poll)

The media companies that Trump doesn’t control by ownership, he beats into submission with multi-billion dollar lawsuits. Those suits generally have no legal merit, but the companies agree to settlements out of fear that Trump will abuse his power to harm their business prospects.

Trump’s obsession with being the King of America is thinly veiled. In the same meeting with Orbán, Trump addressed the current state of the nation that is in the midst of the Trump Shutdown. He expressed his desire to end the standoff with Democrats by invoking a procedural measure that would give all of the power to Trump’s MAGA Republicans in the Senate…

“If we do it [eliminate the filibuster in the Senate], we will never lose the midterms and we will never lose a general election. Because we will have produced so many different things for the people, for the country, that it would be impossible to lose an election.”

Trump on ending the filibuster: "If we do it, we will never lose the midterms and we will never lose a general election … it would be impossible to lose an election."

— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com) 2025-11-07T18:19:11.915Z

And there you have it. Trump is explicitly declaring that it is his intention to rule unchallenged for life. He isn’t interested in solving problems for the benefit of all Americans. He is determined to reign as a tyrant who cannot be refused or removed. And he couldn’t care less about the welfare of the American people, as he showed in his infamous “pooping on the people“ video a few weeks ago.

The only things Trump cares about are money and power. He just wants to be like his pals Orbán and Putin. Fortunately, the people he despises are not going to let him do it. 8647 NOW! [And for you hyperventilating MAGA-nauts, that means remove (86) Trump (47)].

Nancy Pelosi’s Retirement Triggers Another Display of Trump’s Heinous, Hateful, Histrionics

Posted by Mark NC on November 6, 2025 at 2:02 pm. 0 Comments :

To say that the retirement of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is the end of an era would be a profound understatement. Her four decades of service to her constituents and country, culminating in becoming the first woman to rise to the Speakership, will be recorded in American history as an unprecedented achievement.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Among the things that Pelosi will be relieved from in her retirement, are the constant, infantile insults hurled at her by Donald Trump, who is seething with jealousy and a maniacal obsession for vengeance. Trump’s attacks are typically fueled by lies and personal animus. He rarely mentions her name without appending “crooked” or “crazy” to it. And he makes up “scandals” that have no basis in reality.

SEE THIS: FINALLY: Trump Admits that January 6th Was an Insurrection, But Blames it on Nancy Pelosi

After hearing about Pelosi’s intention to retire, Trump was asked by Peter Doocy of Fox News for a comment. And true to form, Trump exhibited his world-class aversion to civility and diplomacy. He raged that…

“The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America. She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country. She was rapidly losing control of her party, and it was never coming back. I’m very honored she impeached me twice and failed miserably twice. Nancy Pelosi is a highly overrated politician.”

Trump reacts to Nancy Pelosi retirement:“The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America. She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country."

— Republicans Against Trumpism (@rpsagainsttrump.bsky.social) 2025-11-06T16:12:06.773Z

There is literally nothing in that rant that contains even a shred of truth. Pelosi presided over some of the most productive years of Congress. She did not “lose control,” she passed it on. And her management of the two impeachments of Trump were both successful, as far as their progress in the House of Representatives is concerned.

However, no one should be surprised by Trump’s nauseating remarks that explicitly accuse Pelosi of criminality, albeit without evidence or even a citation of an actual crime. It is just his congenital callousness and habitual hatred that drives everything he does.

To be sure, Pelosi has had some harsh words for Trump at times. She recently described him as “a vile creature,” elaborating that he is…

“The worst thing on the face of the Earth…Because he’s the president of the United States, and he does not honor the Constitution of the United States. In fact, he’s turned the Supreme Court into a rogue court. He’s abolished the House of Representatives. He’s chilled the press.”

It’s hard to argue with that. Although, Pelosi has some extraordinarily moving justification for her negative feelings about Trump. Three years ago, when her husband Paul was the victim of a near fatal attack in their home, Trump made crude jokes about it for the entertainment of the cult followers at his rallies.

When Trump wasn’t laughing at an attempted murder, he was baselessly accusing Pelosi of financial fraud or some unexplained malfeasance related to the January 6th insurrection that he incited, and that was being investigated by Congress.

For her part, Pelosi released an inspiring video that summarized some of her tenure in Congress, her love for her country, and her devotion to public service. It was a touching recollection of a long career that was filled with the sort of dignity and honor that only a true patriot can muster. She said in part that…

“My message to the city I love is this: San Francisco, know your power. We have made history. We have made progress. We have always led the way. And now we must continue to do so by remaining full participants in our democracy and fighting for the American ideals we hold dear.”

Thank you, San Francisco. pic.twitter.com/OP8ubeFzR6

Republicans Learn Nothing From Their Electoral Spanking, but Trump Learns to Savor Dictatorship

Posted by Mark NC on November 5, 2025 at 1:53 pm. 0 Comments :

The results of the 2025 elections were an unqualified blowout for Democrats who won every one of the most consequential contests. They won governorships in New Jersey and Virginia. they won the mayoral race in New York City. They won the California redistricting initiative that will be a prelude to similar measures in other states.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Republicans on the other hand lost by unexpectedly large margins. The races mentioned above were not even close. That sort of collapse is generally a harbinger of hard times ahead for the party at the bottom of the heap. And yet, their response to this smackdown is to doubledown on their extremist MAGA-tism with ever more radical proposals that, in many cases, will help Democrats more than the pitifully desperate GOP.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Threats to Nuke the Filibuster Could Lead to a Republican Nightmare

Confirming that Republicans are infected with a fatal case of flop sweat, their Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, held a post-election press conference to exhibit just how removed he is from reality. He told the assemble media that…

“I don’t think the loss last night was any reflection about Republicans at all. I think people are frustrated and angry, as we are, I am, the president is, and we express that in different ways. But we’re looking forward to a great election running on our record.”

Mike Johnson: "I don't think the loss last night was any reflection about Republicans at all. I think people are frustrated and angry, as we are, I am, the president is, and we express that different ways."

— The Bulwark (@thebulwark.com) 2025-11-05T16:08:10.162Z

Does this election outcome reflect on Republicans? Of course not. Why would the overwhelming votes of millions of people have anything to do with the party that lost so badly? Although, Johnson is right that “people are frustrated and angry.” At Republicans. Which also explains why he and Trump are angry and frustrated.

As for running on their record, Johnson and his MAGA minions are welcome to do that. And Democrats will be happy to help. It’s record that consists of higher prices, less democracy, military invasions of U.S. cities, inflationary tariffs, tax cuts for the rich, skyrocketing healthcare premiums, cutting off food aid, murdering alleged drug traffickers with no evidence, censoring comedians, and protecting pedophiles. What could go wrong?

For his part, Trump followed up the election debacle with a commentary that not only put his ignorance of the plight of the American people on display, it provided further evidence of his mental deficiency. He told a reporters that…

“All we want is voter ID. You go to a grocery store, you have to give ID. You go to a gas station, you give ID. But for voting they want no voter ID. It’s only for one reason: because they cheat.”

Donald Trump has never been to a grocery store or a gas station.Which may explain why he doesn't know or care that groceries and gas is still to expensive. How do MAGAts think this guy is in touch with their lives.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-05T17:59:04.774Z

What’s more, if that wasn’t bad enough, Trump offered his excuse for the electoral catastrophe in a posting to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. In a typically pathetic comment he whined that…

“TRUMP WASN’T ON THE BALLOT, AND SHUTDOWN, WERE THE TWO REASONS THAT REPUBLICANS LOST ELECTIONS TONIGHT.”

HAHAHAHAHA…Trump thinks he wasn't on the ballot. He's the reason that turnout for Democrats hit record levels. But he's right that the #TrumpShutdown was part of the reason for the GOP election losses.Congratulations California, New Jersey, Virginia, New York, and America.

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-05T08:39:23.560Z

If Trump really thinks that he wasn’t on the ballot, he is more cognitively diminished than we thought. Exit polls showed that many voters specifically showed up at the polls to register their disapproval of Trump. And no one was more insistent that his influence would be a key factor in the election outcomes than he was. As for the government shutdown that he and his GOP confederates orchestrated – and continue to prolong – that was indeed a significant reason for why voters came out in droves for Democrats.

The attitude of Trump and the Republican Party in the wake of their devastating losses is proof that that have no capacity whatsoever for self-reflection or any ability to learn from their mistakes. Which is good news for Democrats. It means that the GOP won’t bother to correct course between now and the midterm elections in 2026. Consequently, the defeats that they suffered yesterday will only be magnified next year. We can hardly wait.

Trump Calls Tens of Thousands of Jews in New York ‘Stupid’ for Voting for Zohran Mamdani

Posted by Mark NC on November 4, 2025 at 12:48 pm. 2 Comments :

It’s Election Day in parts of America and Donald Trump is freaking out because he knows that his candidates and issues are likely to go down hard. Democrats running for governor of New Jersey and Virginia are leading in the polls. And the redistricting initiative in California, that could create five new Democratic districts, is expected to pass in landslide.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Consequently, Trump is behaving just as you might have predicted. He’s lashing out furiously with the sort of vicious and incoherent tirades you’d expect from a grossly impudent five year old. It’s an extension of his recent lie-riddled interview on CBS’ “60 Minutes” where he couldn’t string two sentences together without mangling reality or maligning a political foe.

SEE THIS: FACT CHECK: Serial Liar Trump Unleashed a Fury of Flagrant Falsehoods (aka Lies) on 60 Minutes

On Tuesday morning Trump previewed the outcomes of the elections being held with his transparently pessimistic perspective in a series of comments on his failing Twitter rip off, Truth Social. Among the tantrums Trump is throwing is one where he whines about “rigged” voting in California, where he’s already conceding defeat. And then there’s the one where he demands that Republicans “terminate the filibuster.” Which isn’t such a bad idea. And he also celebrates low ratings for MSNBC, while ignoring that Fox News declined 36% in the past year. And he announces that he will defy a court order to distribute SNAP benefits to needy families.

However, perhaps the most profoundly grotesque comment was the one where he literally called tens of thousands of Jews in New York City “stupid” if the vote for Democratic mayoral candidate, Zohran Mamdani. Trump ranted that…

“Any Jewish person that votes for Zohran Mamdani, a proven and self professed JEW HATER, is a stupid person!!!”

Trump, who dines with neo-Nazis at Mar-a-Lago, is calling hundreds of thousands of Jews in New York "stupid." (Fox News poll, Jewish voters: Mamdani 38%, Cuomo 42%).FTR: Mamdani is a "self-professed" advocate for ALL New Yorkers. As usual Trump is lying.www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news…

— News Corpse (@newscorpse.bsky.social) 2025-11-04T17:23:46.695Z

What a great closing argument by Trump for the mayoral race wherein he has half-heartedly endorsed the disgraced former governor, Andrew Cuomo. Insult one of the biggest voting demographics in the city with a blatantly anti-Semitic taunt. And it’s a voting bloc that was shown in a recent Fox News poll to have significant support for Mamdani, being virtually tied with Cuomo (Mamdani 38%, Cuomo 42%).

This is especially disgusting considering that Trump is a well known “Jew Hater.” He has actually dined with Nick Fuentes, an avowed neo-Nazi, at his Mar-a-Lago hotel/home. And Nick arrived with his anti-Semitic pal, Kanye West, where they both sat at Trump’s table. Trump is also the leader of the party whose “Young Republicans” were recently exposed in online chats saying that they “love Hitler.” Trump never bothered to rebuke those sentiments.

The desperation in Trump’s election day rants is unlikely to change the outcome of today’s races. If anything, it might make the defeat of Trump’s candidates and issues even more pronounced. And we can expect that before the sunrises on Wednesday, Trump will be insisting that all of the races were “rigged and stolen.” And he’ll probably blame it all on President Biden who, in Trump’s cartoon brain, is both a political genius and a mental basket case.

FACT CHECK: Serial Liar Trump Unleashed a Fury of Flagrant Falsehoods (aka Lies) on 60 Minutes

Posted by Mark NC on November 3, 2025 at 1:07 pm. 0 Comments :

It is a rare occurrence when Donald Trump allows himself to be interviewed by anyone other than one of the slobbering sycophants who populate the MAGA media outlets like Fox News or Newsmax or One America News Network. It is evidence of his innate cowardice, insecurity, and fear of being asked a question that is more difficult than “How did you become so handsome and brilliant?”

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Which may have sparked some curiosity when it was announced that Trump would be interviewed on “60 Minutes” by Norah O’Donnell. Although it shouldn’t have for reasons that will be dealt with in more detail below. On the surface, it seemed peculiar that Trump would appear on the network and program that he recently sued for alleged “election interference.”

SEE THIS: Paramount Caves to Trump’s Extortion, Disgraces CBS, Pays a $16M Bribe to Settle a Bogus Lawsuit

True to form, Trump delivered a performance that was rife with deflection and dishonesty. When he wasn’t making up fantastical diversions from reality, he was swerving off into unrelated responses to questions he either didn’t know the answers to, or was too afraid to reply with anything resembling the truth.

Fortunately, CNN’s designated fact-checker, Daniel Dale, was on the job. He posted a pretty comprehensive summation of the many lies that Trump tried to pass off as coherent replies to inquiries on some serious matters. What follows are some of the more egregiously truthless Trumpisms itemized in Dale’s article…

It’s not true grocery prices “are down”; Trump told this lie even after O’Donnell told him they’re up
It’s not true “$17 trillion” is being invested in the US “right now” (this fictional figure is nearly double the White House’s own wildly inflated “announcements” figure)
It’s not true some recent former presidents invoked the Insurrection Act “28 times” (Ulysses S. Grant has the record because he invoked it on six occasions)
It’s not true Trump has ended “eight wars” (among other issues, his list includes two situations that weren’t wars at all
It’s not true foreign countries pay his tariffs (US importers make the payments and often pass on costs to consumers)
It’s not true Trump inherited the worst inflation of all time (it was 3% the month he took office, same as now, and even the 9.1% Biden-era peak in 2022 was not close to the all-time record)
It’s not true the 2020 election was “rigged and stolen” (his usual lie)
It’s not true the Presidential Records Act says he was allowed to have classified documents at his home post-presidency (it says all presidential records are to be in government custody the moment a president leaves office)
It’s not true Trump never instructed the Justice Department to go after Comey and James (he explicitly pressured the head of the department to do so in a social media post we all saw)
It’s not true Democrats are trying to give $1.5 trillion to illegal immigrants in the shutdown battle
It’s not true foreign leaders have emptied their prisons to somehow insert criminals into the US as migrants

It’s ironic that Trump is lying so profusely during a “60 Minutes” interview. He sued CBS over an interview they conducted with Kamala Harris that he said was election interference and “probably illegal.” CBS settled the lawsuit without apologizing or conceding any wrongdoing. But they still shelled out $16 million dollars for his presidential library, if there is ever is one.

That settlement was a more of a bribe that CBS was paying to insure that mob boss Trump wouldn’t block the merger that CBS’ parent corporation, Paramount, was trying to complete with Skydance Media, a company run by Trump pals, Larry and David Ellison. There was no legal reason to settle. The case had no merit whatsoever. Trump was alleging that “60 Minutes” had improperly edited the interview to favor Harris politically. They didn’t.

What’s more, Trump acknowledged that he knew that CBS would be editing his interview. Which they did. It was whittled down from 90 minutes to about 28, in much the same way that he complained about for the Harris interview. And while it was in progress, Trump revealed that, not only was he aware of the editing, but he gave CBS permission to edit out specific parts that exposed the bias of the network’s new owners in his favor…

“You don’t have to put this on, because I don’t want to embarrass you. […] I think you have a great new leader, frankly, who’s – the young woman [Bari Weiss] that’s leading your whole enterprise is a great, from what I know – I don’t know her, but I hear she’s a great person. But ’60 Minutes’ was forced to pay me a lot of money because they took her [Kamala Harris] answer out that was so bad it was election-changing.”

So Trump sued CBS for what they did with the Harris interview, which is also precisely what he was now conspiring with CBS to do for his own interview. And the rest of the time he was lying. Of course, most of America – and the world – is already aware that Trump lies virtually every time he opens his mouth. But the reputation of CBS is now pretty much shot to hell. And unless the honest journalists who haven’t quit yet rise up to defend the free press, CBS can take their place in the MAGA Media Hall of Shame.

Seth Meyers Triggers Crybaby Trump to Whine that Being Anti-Trump is ‘Probably Illegal’

Posted by Mark NC on November 2, 2025 at 10:50 am. 3 Comments :

For anyone who is still not fully convinced that Donald Trump has authoritarian aspirations, he helpfully continues to provide more proof every day. In both his words and actions Trump demonstrates that he has an insatiable compulsion to reign as an unchallengeable dictator who demands unflinching loyalty to him alone.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

The range of Trump’s atrocities in the past nine months of his second occupation of the White House is impressively tyrannical. He could not be more clear about his nefarious intentions. And his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt was kind enough to remind us all of the sort of monstrous things that Trump is doing while the American people suffer.

SEE THIS: Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is HORRIFIED…By a White House Toilet?

The latest example of Trump’s blatant fomenting of fascism comes in another one of his comments posted to his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. In a typically rancid outburst, Trump lashed out at late night talk show host, Seth Meyers, for hilariously mocking Trump’s ignorance and obsession with petty grievances that he pitifully fails to understand. Trump raged that…

“Seth Meyers of NBC may be the least talented person to ‘perform’ live in the history of television. In fact, he may be the WORST to perform, live or otherwise. I watched his show the other night for the first time in years. In it he talked endlessly about electric catapults on aircraft carriers which I complain about as not being as good as much less expensive steam catapults. On and on he went, a truly deranged lunatic. Why does NBC waste its time and money on a guy like this??? – NO TALENT, NO RATINGS, 100% ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!”

Trump’s animus toward Meyers has been a decades long affair. It likely began when Meyers was the featured comedian at the White House Correspondents Dinner in 2011, where he performed a killer routine that took some jolting jabs at Trump, who obviously didn’t think it was funny. So it hardly matters that today Trump thinks Meyers is untalented. He’s been saying that for years. And he’s still saying it as recently as this past August…

MORE HERE: Snowflake Trump Blasts Seth Meyers and Threatens Comcast Because Jokes Hurt His Tender Fee Fees

What matters is that Trump closed his rant by whining that Meyers was “ANTI TRUMP, WHICH IS PROBABLY ILLEGAL!!!” That’s right. The American PINO (President in Name Only) has declared that it’s illegal to be anti-Trump. And all because Meyers revealed that Trump is an idiot who knows nothing about whatever subject he is stuck on. On this occasion it was the differences between steam powered or electro-magnetic catapults on aircraft carriers (Video below).

TRUMP: “They’re spending billions of dollars to build stupid electric. And the problem, when it breaks, you have to send up to MIT, get the most brilliant people in the world, fly them out, it’s ridiculous. The steam they said they could fix with a hammer and a blowtorch and it works just as well if not better. And I love the sight of that beautiful steam pouring off that deck – with the electric, you don’t have that.” […]
MEYERS: “[Trump] spends more time thinking about catapults than Wile E Coyote. Next, they’re gonna start complaining how our troops don’t tie themselves to rockets anymore, [Imitating Trump] ‘We used to strap our soldiers to the rockets and they loved it, but then everything got woke and they said ‘You can’t tie a person to a rocket. But we miss those days and we’re bringing them back.'”

Then Meyers delivers his new segment “Seth Translates Trump To English,” in which he gives an explanation of the difference between the catapults that is far more detailed than anything Trump could do. Meyers also provides another example of Trump saying that any criticism of him is treason.

It Trump really wants to make any criticism of him a breach of the law – or even worse, treason – he’s going to have to build a lot more prisons. Or at least make more deals for millions of cells is foreign gulags. Needless to say, he won’t get away with it. But he can still do some short term damage. And he must not be allowed any leeway for any of it.

It will take a broad coalition of patriots – Democrats, Independents, and Republicans – as well as the courts and the Congress to smack down Trump’s anti-American crusade. We are all necessary in this valiant fight to 8647. Be strong, and be ready. And recognize that Trump and his MAGA clown brigades are far weaker than he wants you to believe.

Trump’s Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, is HORRIFIED…By a White House Toilet?

Posted by Mark NC on November 1, 2025 at 1:00 pm. 1 Comments :

The American presidency is currently going through some of the most troubling challenges in its history. For the first time ever we have, in Donald Trump, a White House occupant who is emulating the behavior of notorious totalitarian dictators such as Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un, all of whom he frequently reminds us are leaders that he admires.

Having an avowed autocrat as the American PINO (President in Name Only) is creating unprecedented challenges that portend seriously disturbing consequences if not rejected by the American people and what remains of our government institutions.

Unfortunately, those institutions are being strained by the cowardice of Trump’s Republican Party colleagues and the blind fealty of his White House staff. And topping the list of the Trump Sycophants Brigade is his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt.

With all of the trauma and turmoil that this nation is currently undergoing, Leavitt made a point of highlighting what she regards as among the most worrisome problems that America is facing. And she tweeted her relief that Dear Leader was addressing that problem head on, saying that…

“When I first learned a toilet like that existed inside the White House, I was horrified. President Trump is making the People’s House more elegant and beautiful for generations of Americans to come!”

Thank gawd! Now, along with building an elegant ballroom for Trump to throw parties paying tribute to him. he and his guests will be able to defecate in the luxury to which they are accustomed. How could anyone even contemplate the horror of the loathsome lavatory on the left in the photos above? But now “generations of Americans” will delight in the gaudy “elegance” of the marble amenities that Trump has installed. Well, actually only a handful of privileged elites with access to the Lincoln Bedroom in the White House.

Trump posted seven separate comments about his facility upgrade on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social. So naturally, Leavitt backed him up in a tweet. It is notable that Leavitt has expressed how “horrified” she was by the prior state of the rest room. So, for the record, let’s explore just a few of the things that did not “horrify” Leavitt:

Trump’s government shutdown that cut off food aid for children and seniors
Trump’s termination of funding for the USAID that will result in thousands of deaths
Inflationary tariffs that raise the cost of living of most Americans
Healthcare premiums skyrocketing by as much as 400%
Trump’s “Justice” Department prosecuting his political foes
Ministers getting shot in the face by ICE agents
Trump sending the military into American cities
Palestinians suffering genocidal attacks in Gaza
Trump halting military support for Ukraine at the behest of Vladimir Putin
Murder of Venezuelans in the Caribbean who may have been innocent fishermen
Trump and Republicans calling peaceful protesters “terrorists”
Trump suppressing the media that he calls “the enemy of the people”

With all of that going on, it is comforting that at least we can be grateful now that Leavitt and her ilk will no longer have to suffer from using a toilet that isn’t embedded in a marble mausoleum. Likewise, we can rest assured that Trump is focusing like a laser on the matters that truly impact the lives of the American people. And now he has a place to deposit his excrement, rather than on top of the people who were protesting his authoritarian aspirations.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN: Trump’s Threats to Nuke the Filibuster Could Lead to a Republican Nightmare

Posted by Mark NC on October 31, 2025 at 12:00 pm. 0 Comments :

On this All Hallows Eve, there is an unnerving quantity of truly spooky horrors hovering over the nation that has been possessed by the Orange Demon, Donald Trump. The monster that MAGA made is as terrifying as any of the Frankensteins, Draculas, or zombies, dreamed up in the most spine-chilling horror fiction.

Click here to post this article on Twitter or Click here to post on Bluesky

Trump is truly doing the devil’s work as he imposes inflationary tariffs that increase the cost of living, bombs boats in the Caribbean without any evidence that they are anything but innocent fishermen, rounds up migrants for deportation to foreign gulags, prosecutes his political foes, and keeps the government shutdown while the American people suffer from loss of pay and benefits.

SEE THIS: King Trump Craves a ‘Forever’ Shutdown, Whining that ‘You Can’t Make a Deal With These Lunatics’

Now, just in time for Halloween, Trump is issuing threats that should scare the pants of all decent, patriotic Americans. Because he has been unable to shove his despicable and unpopular policies down the throats of the Democratic representatives of the people, which triggers his frustration of not reigning like an all-powerful dictator, Trump is commanding his MAGA GOP puppets in Congress to “NUKE” the longstanding parliamentary rules of the Senate in order to get his way.

Trump posted an interminably long comment on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social, wherein he called for Republicans to invoke what he calls the “”Nuclear Option.” His raging edict to eliminate the filibuster includes the following excerpts…

“It is now time for the Republicans to play their “TRUMP CARD,” and go for what is called the Nuclear Option — Get rid of the Filibuster, and get rid of it, NOW!” […]

“Just a short while ago, the Democrats, while in power, fought for three years to do this, but were unable to pull it off…to substantially expand (PACK!) the United States Supreme Court, make Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico States…and many other highly destructive things.” […]

“I want to do it in order to take advantage of the Democrats.”

Scary, isn’t it? But what’s really frightening about it should worry Republicans more than the Democrats that Trump is aiming to “take advantage of.” Because while there would surely be some near-term political atrocities, finishing off the filibuster could result in some unintended terror for the Trumpists when, inevitably, the Democrats regain the majority in Congress, and the White House. Long desired Democratic legislation could be passed without any interference from the GOP obstructionists. For instance…

Pass election reforms including the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and the Freedom to Vote Act to set national standards for early voting, mail-in voting, and redistricting.
Supreme Court reforms including ethics standards, term limits, and adding four more justices.
Improving on the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) and working toward Medicare for All.
The Green New Deal programs to advance clean energy mandates.
Increase the federal minimum wage to $15.00 or more.
Codify Roe v. Wade and LGBTQ+ equality protections to be applicable nationwide.
Pass comprehensive gun safety laws such as universal background checks and banning assault weapons.
Expand child care and elder care programs that Republicans have been blocking.
Tax the rich and provide tax relief for working class Americans.
Statehood for Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico that would enfranchise those citizens and create four more senate seats.
Release the Epstein files if they are still being withheld by the time the next Democratic Congress is in session.

And that’s just for starters. It’s ironic that Trump is launching his campaign to nuke the filibuster at the same time as he is declaring his intention to resume testing actual nukes. But the result could be the pursuit and achievement of an aggressive progressive agenda. And Republicans may come to regret the change just so that they could give Trump congressional approvals to do things that he has already been doing without approval or legal justification.

However, we should never underestimate the ability of the GOP to fail to think things through, and wind up hurting themselves. Given their determination to unleash holy hell on America, their incompetence is one of the few bright spots that Democrats and all Americans can rely on.

Trump Accuses Chuck Schumer of Being ‘Almost Treasonous’ Just for Criticizing Dear Leader

Posted by Mark NC on October 30, 2025 at 1:18 pm. 0 Comments :

Two weeks ago seven million American patriots hit the streets of big cities, small towns, and everything in between, to express their opposition to the totalitarian tactics of wannabe dictator Donald Trump. It was dubbed the “No Kings” movement to focus attention on the autocratic aspirations of Trump and his glassy-eyed cult followers.

Prior to and following that massive outpouring of opposition to Trump’s nefarious ambition, Trump and his MAGA confederates sought to belittle and dismiss the demonstrations that drew more protesters than any other such demonstration in history. They even sought to portray the protesters as lunatics, paid provocateurs, and terrorists. No, really…

SEE THIS: Trump’s Press Secretary and Fox News Go All-In Maligning Democrats as Hamas Terrorists and Antifa

In the days following the “No Kings” events, Trump has done little to disabuse anyone of the warnings of the emerging dictatorship that Trump portends. To the contrary, he is actually exacerbating the cause for alarm. And on Thursday morning he posted a comment on his failing Twitter rip off, Truth Social, that justifies the concerns of the people who abhor his monarchal maneuvers. Trump raged that…

“Worked really hard, 24/7, took in Trillions of Dollars, and Chuck Schumer said trip was ‘a total dud,’ even though he knows it was a spectacular success. Words like that are almost treasonous!!!”v

There is a steaming pile of putrid prevarication in that tortured tirade. First of all, Trump never works “really hard.” He is perhaps the laziest occupant of the White House ever. He spends most of his time golfing, watching Fox News, and posting inane comments online. What’s more, he certainly didn’t work 24 hours a day for seven days while in Asia. In fact, the junket only lasted for five days. But in his defense, every day he is in office feels like a week. Nor did he take in “trillions of dollars.” If he did, then where is it? It’s not in the U.S. treasury. There is no record of its receipt. Did he get it in crypto and deposit it in his private account?

However, Trump was right about one thing. Sen. Chuck Schumer did say that Trump’s trip was “a total dud.” But he said it in the middle of a fifteen minute address on the Senate floor where he castigated Trump for his incompetence and dishonesty. The odds that Trump actually listened to the whole speech are less than zero. So somebody on his staff likely told him about the “dud” remark and nothing else.

Therefore, Trump likely didn’t hear that Schumer also said that “As we enter the 29th day of the government shutdown, where is Donald Trump? He is gallivanting in Asia, dancing in Malaysia.” Schumer also noted that Trump would “strike a trade deal that will sell out the American people,” and “give away vital national security tools, in exchange for little more than a photo op,” and that “This is Trump’s M.O. in foreign policy. He creates a giant mess. Then he wants everyone to praise him when he tries to clean it up and ignore the damage that he has inflicted.” And then came the part that triggered Trump…

“Trump’s trip to the Asian continent could have been a real opportunity to make progress with America’s vital trading partners. He could have used this trip to end his reckless trade war, to stop alienating our allies, to show strength and unite our allies against the Chinese Communist Party, and, most importantly, to help Americans struggling with high costs here at home. But so far, his trip has been a total dud.“

Many Democrats have been critical of Schumer lately, believing that he has not been aggressive enough at countering the threat that Trump represents to democracy and America. Whatever the validity of that criticism, Schumer gave a bold and forthright condemnation of Trump on this particular occasion. And Trump showed that, once again, he is a tender and fragile snowflake who can’t handle honest appraisals of his failures and flaws.

Consequently, Trump responds by lashing out with preposterously vile and childish insults and accusations of treason. But Trump’s inbred hatred has driven him to cast aspersions of treason on many of his political foes, including: President Obama, Nancy Pelosi, James Comey, Adam Schiff, Liz Cheney, and pretty much all of the media.

Trump also wanted all of the members of the House January.6th committee tried for treason. That’s the Committee that was investigating the actual treason committed by Trump’s cult, and whom Trump pardoned despite their having ransacked the Capitol and sent 140 police officers to the hospital in an effort to undermine democracy.

For good – or more accurately, bad – measure, Trump also posted a comment baselessly attacking President Joe Biden for unspecified crimes, and also calling for him to be incarcerated. And of course, the comment sunk to the level of a petulant seven year old whose only motivation was vengeance…

Whiny baby Trump can't get over having lost to President Biden. So, like the wannabe dictator that he is, he makes infantile insults (ugly?) and has orgasmic thrills from delusions that Biden is "squirming."Even worse, Trump keeps calling for Biden' arrest, despite no evidence of any crime.

These comments are not going to do much to persuade anyone that Trump doesn’t aspire to reign as an unchallenged tyrant in the mold of heroes and mentors, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong Un. And Sen. Schumer touched on that as well in his speech, saying that…

“American families are facing enough problems right now, with the nightmare of open enrollment, the pain of higher groceries, the prices of everything from cars to home appliances to electricity skyrocketing. The last thing they want is to turn on the TV and see Trump being gifted a golden crown and then signing a deal with China that royally screws over Americans.”

More of this, please. Every Democrat- in fact, every patriot – needs to echo and expand on these remarks. And we need to do it until every trace of Trumpism is gone. That’s the only way that we can actually make America great again.
