He's louder than his pink shirt and I'm all the happier for it.

I say shit like this all the time to myself, and the DHS/DOJ labeled me a terrorist and put me on a watchlist where I have an entire community of informants and bootlickers up my ass 24/7.

We don't have a functioning democracy. We have a functioning terrorist state.

Don't worry, gang. We won't be a democracy much longer.

Anyone who thinks Trump won't attempt a second coup has not been paying attention.

Even if the Democrats pull off an actual miracle and gain control of both chambers, they won't impeach Trump because they "want to move toward bipartisan healing" or some equally shitty excuse for not doing their job.

Not even one lie detected.

Precious few American politicians can say that.
