Anyone who listens to Donald Trump for any length of time has to wonder why he bothers to run for office, or even live in the United States. His speeches are a non-stop torrent of antipathy toward the nation that he repeatedly demeans as “failing,” and disparages most of its residents who he regards as “animals.”

The only time Trump ever says anything good about America is when he’s lying about his abysmal stewardship of it, or when he’s lauding the “very fine people” who promote neo-Nazi initiatives and confederate statues. He has adopted a rather bizarre campaign theme that is overtly anti-American and relies on tearing down the country in the most vile terms. For instance, he posted the following absurd pitch for votes on his floundering social media scam, Truth Social:
“OUR ONCE GREAT COUNTRY IS GOING DOWN THE DRAIN. WE ARE A NATION IN DECLINE! VOTE FOR TRUMP, WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?”

Now that the 2024 presidential race is in full swing, Trump is slithering farther out on the limb of sanity as he becomes utterly incapable of dealing with his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris (who for some reason he keeps calling “Kamabla”) And on Wednesday, while Harris and her new running mate, Tim Walz, were out stumping across the country, Trump did another one of his lazy Fox News phone-in “interviews” in his jammies, from his Mar-a-Lago bunker, with the sycophantic Trump-fluffers on Fox & Friends. It consisted of the typical and tedious playlist of substanceless blather that Trump has been spinning for months.
Much of Trump’s whining was related to the recent volatility in the stock market. Trump has been ranting that it’s all President Biden’s fault. Or even Harris’ fault. And he repeated his prediction that a Democratic victory would result in a market crash worse than 1929. Of course, he’s been making the same ludicrous prediction since 2015. But now he is purposefully trying to create a panic by fear mongering that the world is coming to an end. In the Fox segment (video below) Trump warned his glassy-eyed cult followers that…
“Our whole country, our whole system is gonna collapse. Even the talk about her has driven the stock market down. You know when the stock market goes down, when you see it go down, that’s because she gets a decent poll number. She gets bounces in the poll, the market goes down. The stock market will collapse like in 1929 if they’re elected.’
Needless to say, that is all pure Trumpian bullshittery. The market did go down after some polls showed Harris tightening the race. But the market went back up after some more polls showed her taking the lead. Obviously, stock market performance has little to do with election polling. But Trump is desperate enough to exploit anything in order to avoid facing the reality that he’s a loser.

There is, however, some good news that Trump provided in this Fox segment. Just prior to his wacko statement above, Trump said that…
“If [Harris] does this to America, every one of us are either gonna be leaving or we’re gonna be living like dogs.”

Is that a promise? Will Trump, and every one of his cult disciples, really leave if Harris wins the election? That would be a fantastic addendum to the Democratic victory. It would be so much winning. And those of us who remain will “be living like dogs.” Which, if Trump knew anything about a dog’s life, would be pretty damn sweet. There’s even an old saying – “It’s a dog’s life” – that is used to describe times of pleasantness and leisure. Which the country, and the world, would enjoy in abundance if Trump and his ilk would just go away.

Fox Nation vs. Reality:
The Fox News Cult of Ignorance.Thanks so much for your support.
Something tells me Trump won’t be leaving.
Not if the U.S. Marshals Service has anything to say about it, anyway.
Let’s pass the hat and buy the tickets. I’m all in.
First….revoke his citizenship…..then make that ticket one way! Then the Federal government can seize all his assets, and sell them!
Yeah, he’ll be leaving – direct to Guantanamo once Kamala gets done with him!
I suspect that TFG’s claim
” …every one of us are either gonna be leaving …”
is a confession of his plan to go on the lam if he loses the election.
The judges, DAs, AGs and prosecuting attorneys involved in his various trials should probably take note of that and consider revoking his release on bail. Dude is a self-professed flight risk.
Don’t get your hopes up.
EVERYTHING that Donald Trump says is a lie, and over 90% of it is projection as well.
Donald Trump will continue to destabilize this country for his buddies in Moscow, Beijing and Pyongyang until he is jailed for his crimes against America.
When Obama insulted him at that roast it enraged Donald, and the spoiled rich boy began his personal attempt to destroy America in ‘retribution’. And then the United Nations laughed at him, on camera, and you know exactly what his next target will be when America truly is nothing but smoking ruins and the armed redoubts of his billionaire ‘buddies’.
A lot of people have tried to warn you folks, over and over again, about how dangerous Trump is, and how much he could destroy if given any kind of actual power again.
And a significant portion of America took that to heart, and promptly nominated Trump for President again. . .
Please don’t do what you’re about to do. Please don’t listen to the lies about how good everything was under Trump’s occupancy of the White House.
I’m old, and lame, and I like electricity that works every day and safe food to eat. I need safe air to breathe, safe water to drink, and a reasonably sane world to live in, and for some unfathomable reason a fairly large portion of America appears to be choosing to THROW ALL OF THAT AWAY FOR THE BENEFIT OF A FEW DOZEN BILLIONAIRES!
I’ve been asking why, and none of you who claim you have to do this can give me a valid reason for it.
Some of you who are still reading this, and shaking your heads, could do something about this. Bug your senator and representative until their secretaries hear your name and automatically hang up on you, then shame them in the media for that as loudly as you can.
Either you, all of us, get involved now, or we may get exactly what Donald Trump has been promising selected audiences–“Everything will be fixed so good, you won’t ever have to vote again.”
That, and telling folks they don’t need to vote in this election, they have all the votes they need–which probably means they hope to screw up the election results so badly the election is thrown to Congress to decide, which has a very slim Republican majority at this point. . .
If you view the Republican movers and shakers, the important figures in that party and the people who are bankrolling them, as being actually insane, mired forever in a delusion where taking everything they want won’t matter to anyone they care about, you still wouldn’t understand the depth of their depravity, their greeds and passions driving them on with a whip!
They will do ANYTHING, no matter how vile and destructive to this country and the people who love her and appreciate her, their crimes are. And they will smile, and lie to the cameras and the journalists talking to them over and over, from a script they’re all given for that day or week, and heave America just a little bit closer to that cliff. . .
You may have decided by this time that I don’t care much for Republicans, and I say to you, the abomination supporting Donald Trump is NOT the Republican Party, no matter what they call themselves. The party that supports Donald Trump is the Bizzaro Perublican Party, the utter inversion and corruption of everything the Republican Party once was. It may be considered a legitimate political party, but the people who flock to Maga would, for the most part, really like to go out on afternoons and weekends and shoot them some furriners.
And libtards. And demonrats. And the list goes on, and on.
“They came for the furriners, and I didn’t complain, because I wasn’t a furriner, no sirree.”
“Then they came for the libtards, and it was hard, because my son was a libtard, but I still didn’t complain, no sirree.”
But that story demonstrates they’ll come for you sooner or later, and the later it is, the fewer friends you’ll have to help you.
Best of luck all of you, and truly deserved nightmares to those of you who don’t help sink Donald Trump and wake up, on January 7th, in a country stolen by an adjudicated thief and rapist.
