Republicans are enraged about Biden’s prisoner swap to bring Britney Griner home. They seem to forget that Trump freed 5,000 Taliban soldiers and invited their leader to Camp David. They are nothing but hypocrites.

Even Herschel Walker, who has not displayed superior intellect, had the decency to accept his loss and to ask everyone to follow the Constitution of the United States — unlike the leader of the Republican cult who has no grace, no integrity, and no morals just to name a few of his qualities.

Would the resident Trump lover please list your leader’s accomplishments during his four years he occupied the White House? We are very interested, so we can evaluate whether or not we made a mistake in judgement by relegating him to the rank of idiot.

I just had a random thought: Franklin Delano Roosevelt led us through the two greatest crises of the 20th century, “The Great Depression and World War II.” Donald Trump led us through the greatest crisis of the 21st century, “Donald Trump.”

So Biden let a convicted arms dealer who has killed Americans go so he could bring home Brittney Griner from Russia. This was a horrible deal all around. Viktor Bout, the Merchant of Death and a terrorist, is now free to go and will most likely continue with his mission to harm the United States. This was nothing more than a political stunt on Biden’s part to gain favor with people of color. Griner is a drug addict and should have served her 9-year sentence. What a terrible lesson to teach children. Do drugs and there will be no punishment! Just like here in the Liberal United States. Nice job, Joe.

If there were an imposing building in downtown Chicago with giant letters spelling out C-A-P-O-N-E, something would have been done about it long ago. So why do we still see an imposing building in downtown Chicago bearing massive letters spelling out T-R-U-M-P? The organization that owns that building has just been found guilty on 17 counts of criminal tax fraud. It’s disgraceful that the name Trump can continue to pollute the Chicago skyline.

Former President Trump owns a ‘missile!’ What is the real fire behind Trump’s hold on the Republican party? Why do Republicans continue to bow to Trump? The answer is simple. They need his MAGA group to win elections. The MAGA group has been estimated to be around 10 to 15% of the Republican vote. Republicans won’t win very many countrywide contests without MAGA support. Here is his real power. Trump has no morals or loyalty to anyone, including this country. He claims he loves America. It is only a selfish love. If Trump does not get his way, he will ‘blow’ up an election or ‘blast’ a candidate! He has no qualms. MAGA will follow his lead. I firmly believe, despite a possible indictment, Trump will be the nominee in 2024. If not, get ready for a ‘missile’ hit on the Republican party!

We’ve finally heard from a straight-up election denier, who claims the 2020 election was fraudulent for the simple reason that Joe Biden got 80,000,000 votes, and there just couldn’t possibly be that many “gullible” people in the U. S. Oh, really? Trump got  74,000,000 votes, so we know for sure there are at least that many gullible people, one of whom is obviously the person who submitted the post. You need a better reason to claim the election was stolen than that you just think it was. In nearly 60 court challenges to the 2020 election, charges of election fraud were dismissed. Does the person who submitted this post also think that parts of our Constitution should be “terminated” so that Trump could be installed as president? No doubt.
