Donald Trump is far and away the most egregiously boundless, wantonly corrupt president that this country has ever had. There is simply no comparison to the worst of any other politician in our country's history, but let's just limit it to the presidency for now. If every flaming, bullshit lie that the MAGA Republican party ever made up about any democratic president was in fact true and then some, it would barely move the needle on the corruption gauge that Trump has pegged. His level of unmitigated, anti-constitutional corruption and flagrant larceny is the shame of this country around the world.

I mean, we can all agree on this at least. Can't we?

    Warren Harding had long been considered the president who oversaw the most corrupt administration. But other than some imbibing of alcohol and playing poker in the White House during Prohibition, Harding was a choir boy compared to Trump.

    Trump is scam artist and it is amusing he scams his own supporters, even the well heeled ones, lol!

    You know, the subject of this thread is a tremendous indicator of why I never believe Hate when he goes on about despising Trump and such nonsense. To not be able to acknowledge the shear wanton criminality of the man presented before him by courts of law and video evidence of him being flagrantly corrupt.

    I would think that you've got to have a pretty strong existential bond to such a man to overlook his criminality and corruption, as Hate does, when it has been on this gargantuan of a scale and blatancy. The mindbogglingly astounding corruption! It's all a joke to Hate!

    I fear I was correct when I long ago pegged Trump as Hate's own Mango Messiah.


  7. by Curt_Anderson on May 23, 2025 7:25 pm
    Ponderer,
    "The Swamp" that HtS supposedly hates is amorphous with a vague definition. If Trump's meme coin dinner, his Qatari airliner, et cetera don't qualify as examples of The Swamp, I don't know what does.


  8. by Ponderer on May 23, 2025 7:41 pm

    Swamps are actually rather important parts of environmental ecosystems.

    What Trump has supposedly replaced Hate's swamp with is more akin to an overflowing cesspool.

    And Hate completely ignores it all. Couldn't be bothered. Doesn't even exist. Us libtards and our TDS.


  9. by Ponderer on May 23, 2025 7:47 pm

    I mean like a multiple hectare huge lake of effluence from off a pig processing factory that is held back by a damn that is springing leaks all over it and could go anytime. The smell coming off the place for miles around is nauseating beyond words. Trump's "Swamp" replacement.


    And MAGA Hat Hate is oblivious to it all.


  10. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 4:13 am

    I think that Trump is despicable but that the dysfunctional and corrupt DC political culture is despicable-r.

    As far as this memecoin issue is concerned, the only negative coverage I'm picking up is from the TDS SwampMedia, which hates all things Trump. Right-wing mediais ho hum over it. And ...

    FYI, much to most of the right-wing media is still blasting Trump over the Qatari jet. Even Fox News, as Curt can tell you. I don't trust your TDS media to cover Trump accurately. Bottom line. I don't know what to think about the memecoin brouhaha.

    Two general observations:

    1. Trump is doing this out in the open. Corrupt politicians do their dirt outside of the public view.
    2. Even this falls in line with what Trump said he'd do when he was campaigning in 025. So, even moderate and independent common sense voters voted for this.
    3. I don't see how you can be rational and say, "Donald Trump is far and away the most egregiously boundless, wantonly corrupt president that this country has ever had," because everything he's doing is precisely what he promised he'd do.

    4. To po: Proof of your Stage 4 TDS is your belief, not only that Trump is bad, not even that Trump is the worst, but that he is far and away yada yada yada the worst. My degree is in American history. Considering what came before him, I can't think your assessment of Trump is rational.

    I posted this to Curt t'other day: It's hard to rationally oppose Trump because so many people are deranged in their opposition to him. This is a case in point.

    In the end, I think Trump may be seen as Andrew Jackson 2.0. Jackson disrupted our politics. He created a new political party (the Democrat Party) and is still judged to be evil by many.

    curt to po- "The Swamp" that HtS supposedly hates is amorphous with a vague definition. If Trump's meme coin dinner, his Qatari airliner, et cetera don't qualify as examples of The Swamp, I don't know what does.

    I don't think "the swamp" is vague at all. It's about back door deals. It's about USAID sending money to an NGO that feeds back into a congressional members' pocket. And the "aid" never gets stopped. So they have money being laundered through these NGOs for the rest of their lives. It's about getting payments under the table for personal use. Notice that I keep repeating the terms "behind the scenes," "under the table," and "Kickbacks." That's how congress gets so rich earning only just over $100k/yr (in DC). Those on both sides are multi millionaires. Hern, Scott, Warner are worth over $200 MIL each. Menendez was taking bribes from Turkey, which is heavily influenced by the Muslim Brotherhood (yet another radical Islamist group). He was taking gold in exchange for state secrets. These are just some examples of "the swamp." Jackson was the worst for it and was known to "do favors" for donors that were illegal. Lincoln made deals, and I've never heard of him taking bribes or anything like that. I didn't care for his decisions, but I think he was a clean politician. Congress made a huge bundle when the Railroads and telegraph were built in the west. There were also huge kickbacks after the civil war with the "carpet baggers." These folks were "allowed" to ravage through the south and pay pennies on the dollar for land, then used it for truck farms, which was as bad as slavery. This created the racial issues in the south up until the 1960's.

    "I don't think "the swamp" is vague at all. It's about back door deals."
    -olde dude

    Sheri here...

    Well THANK GOD that Trump has done away with corrupt back door deals! No clandestine meetings. Nothing corrupt going on in secret, smoke-filled back rooms in this administration.

    The corruption is all being done in huge luxury banquet halls and dictatorial palaces right in front of live TV cameras. At million-dollar-a-plate dinners. On luxury golf courses that the president just happens to own. Presented in every media outlet as they happen. Trump's MAGA Republican corruption is publicly blazed across headlines making plain just how openly and shamelessly corrupt this orange criminal psychopath truly is.


    And as I remind folks again, MAGA Hat Hate and olde dude would rather pathetically obfuscate their asses off and change the subject to anything else than to actually address Trump's heinous crimes against our Constitution and the American people in the true perspective that his atrocities deserve to be seen from.


  13. by Indy! on May 24, 2025 10:13 am

    So let me see if I have this straight...

    The two Brown Shorts are totally against "backroom" corruption being done behind closed doors...

    But if the Homeless Hairdo does it right out in the open? No problem for them and the other MAGAts. 👍


  14. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 10:26 am

    "Trump's heinous crimes against our Constitution"

    For example, po?


  15. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 10:31 am

    "But if the Homeless Hairdo does it right out in the open? No problem for them and the other MAGAts. 👍"

    Sorta, Indy.

    He is doing out in the open exactly what he promised to do in the campaign. You may not like it but that's not corrupt.

    Moderate and independent common sense voters knew what Trump planned to do. And, they still voted against your beloved Day Drinker.


  16. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 10:32 am
    See what you will about John Wilkes Booth, Lord Haw-Haw and Charles Ponzi but you have to admit that they committed their crimes out in the open. No behind the scenes or under the table criminality for them!


  17. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 10:41 am

    Crimes committed out in the open? Not so with the Biden Crime Family, eh? Keehee ha


  18. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 11:13 am
    HtS,
    The Bidens have nothing on you. Your crimes are all surreptitious and clandestine in nature.


  19. by Indy! on May 24, 2025 11:17 am

    So the Homeless Hairdo promised he would allow open bribery in the White House via his meme coin con? Funny I don't remember you or OD or anyone else mentioning that or being cool with it before the orange ass monkey got elected. Maybe you're just covering for your favorite tangerine tyrant again? The guy you voted for 3 times and will vote for him again if he convinces the GOP to nominate him a 4th time?


  20. by Navy2711 on May 24, 2025 11:23 am
    Now we're excusing Trump's corruption because it's done out in the open. Incredible.

    This is why I tell people that Trump isnt the problem. It's the people. A sizeable chunk of our electorate has no brains, no memory, and no integrity. And there's no way to communicate with them. None. Every one of them is an ignorant automaton whose vote counts as much as mine does.

    Jfc.


  21. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 11:26 am

  22. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 11:29 am

    Navy,

    What corruption? The only people I know of who are upset with Trump are people who have TDS.

    I aksed po and I received no reply so I aks you. What are examples of Trump's, as po puts it, "crimes against the Constitution?"


  23. by Indy! on May 24, 2025 11:31 am

    Exactly, Navy. The dumbing down of America has worked beautifully for the wealthy and connected. The two Brown Shorts here are the perfect example.


  24. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 11:47 am
    Even Trump was amazed with his brain-dead MAGA followers. How did he put it? It was something like I could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue in broad daylight and not lose any votes!

    If I ever get stopped for speeding, I might try telling the cop, "but officer, yes, I was speeding, but I did it out in the open".


  25. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 11:52 am

    Curt,

    You d@ngwell know that they ain't enuff MAGAs in the universe to have handed Tangerine a comfortable win in the popular vote in 024.

    Trump's become the man of moderate and independent common sense voters! Yeeeeeeha!


  26. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 12:06 pm
    HtS,
    You mean not enough admitted MAGA. Combined with kneejerk Republicans, low information voters and the chronically gullible that was enough for his election win, which he accomplished with less than 50% of the votes.


  27. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 12:19 pm

    "Combined with kneejerk Republicans, low information voters..."

    Even with you, Curt, it's about progressives being smart, or, at least, GOP voters being schtoopid? You are, truly, taking po's on-line night school SANCTIMONY 101 class, eh? Are you class Valedictorian?


    Back on point, Curt, do you honestly think "Trump is far and away the most egregiously boundless, wantonly corrupt president that this country has ever had?"


  28. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 12:50 pm
    HtS,
    Yes, absolutely, I agree with the statement that "Trump is far and away the most egregiously boundless, wantonly corrupt president that this country has ever had".

    Even if he wasn't president, his hawking of his NFTs and crypto currency would mark him as a flimflam artist, but he is president so it makes it worse. His eager acceptance of a Qatari airliner (which he plans to keep after leaving office!) his pardoning of his fellow flimflam man Steve Bannon (who was selling some border wall scam) and other crooks, his raking in millions at his crypto dinner from known criminals and/or foreigners, his "perfect phone calls" to the Georgia secretary of state and Zelenskyy, his adjudicated criminality, his revenge and misuse of the DOJ and other government agencies on his alleged enemies...and those are just some of the examples of his corruption.



  29. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 1:01 pm

    I'm curious. How's that "corrupt?"

    It's legal. He's doing it openly and publicly. And, he was open and honest with voters during the campaign that he'd do what he's doing. If you are aware, there's no way any of this can surprise you.

    I know you don't like what he's doing, but your distaste does define corruption. H€ck, even po's distaste doesn't define corruption.

    IMO, considering Trump's arrogance and his bullying, I can see a rational person believing that he's far and away the most offensive president in US history.

    But, words means stuff.


  30. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 1:11 pm
    HtS,
    Which of his corrupt acts does your "that" refer to? Whatever it is, your thinking is that blatant corruption is apparently A OK in your book.

    His pronouncement yesterday of possible new tariffs on Apple and the EU I suspect were intended to divert media attention from his scammy crypto currency venture. Causing the stock market to plunge to avoid media scrutiny is corrupt and selfish.


  31. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 1:45 pm

    As ole pb understands corruption, Trump has done nothing that achieves the adjective corrupt, as far as I can tell.

    There's no way that mentioning the possibility of tariffs on Apple or the EU can be called corruption. Foolhardy, ridiculous, yes. But not corrupt.

    I, again, encourage you to try to master Salena Zito's wisdom that a progressive "takes (Trump) literally, but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously, but not literally.”

    It's true. Relax. Trump's a narcissistic bully, but he ain't the Antichrist.


  32. by Navy2711 on May 24, 2025 2:13 pm
    Hate, could you please name something that another president did that you view as corrupt?


  33. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 2:21 pm
    HtS,
    It is obvious you cannot see corruption when Donald Trump does it.

    As a thought experiment, consider how apoplectic you would be if Barack Obama or Joe Biden were accused of any of Donald Trump's acts of corruption. You were even outraged over some of Hunter Biden's activities and he was not the president.


  34. by Indy! on May 24, 2025 2:36 pm

    And he's still hanging on the word of every wingnut mediot and cokehead who wants to talk about Biden's possible health issues.


    Brown Shorts:
    Trump's a narcissistic bully, but he ain't the Antichrist.

    That's only because the antichrist is a fictional character. 🙄

    Nixon orchestrating the Watergate cover-up? How's that work for ya?


  36. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 3:10 pm
    Yet you somehow ignore and forgive Trump's elaborate cover-up of his hush money payments, including to a porn actress Stormy Daniels.

    Nixon was a flawed man, but his corruption was, I believe, limited to Watergate after the fact. It would never occur to Nixon to engage in sort of unseemly corrupt acts that Trump favors.


  37. by HatetheSwamp on May 24, 2025 3:35 pm

    Curt,

    You're defending Nixon. Baha bahaha baha bahahahahahahahahahaha, ahhhhhhhhhhh.

    You've got TDS bad!

    "Yet you somehow ignore and forgive Trump's elaborate cover-up of his hush money payments, including to a porn actress Stormy Daniels."

    I don't believe Trump slept with Daniels. Trump did what he did as a private citizen. Not as President.


  38. by Curt_Anderson on May 24, 2025 4:21 pm
    HtS,
    Do you know why Nixon resigned the presidency thus avoiding an embarrassing impeachment and later accepted Ford's pardon which is an admission of guilt?

    Because he has what Trump lacks: a sense of shame. Shame is a painful feeling of humiliation or distress caused by the consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior.



  39. by Indy! on May 24, 2025 5:18 pm

    Nixon - for all his flaws - was a far better president than Trump. He was stupid to get involved in the Watergate cover-up when it probably could have all been dumped on the RNC somehow with a little creative thinking. But Nixon was a key cog in passing the EPA and he was willing to pass a universal healthcare plan too if Ted Kennedy wasn't so dead set on not letting Nixon look good. But - imho - Watergate was a nothing burger compared to him purposely extending the Vietnam war he promised to end.

    BTW, speaking of Watergate, we had the Liddy / Leary debate at our college when I was there. I was looking forward to hearing what Timothy Leary had to say, but honestly G. Gordon Liddy was the far more interesting of the two. Having already paid his debt to society he was very open about the entire Watergate affair. He spelled out the reasoning behind it, how he got involved, why he decided to play along, what it was like getting caught in the act, etc... etc... They also had a Q&A session afterwards and he answered every question anyone asked. You could tell he was the classic CIA henchman/prick - but he was sharp as a tack and downright fascinating.

    Leary - otoh - was a borderline caricature of the burnt-out hippy who dropped acid one too many times. He did have some interesting stories about the Haight Ashbury scene and other 1960s summer of love era stuff - but if the two were having a real debate (eh.. not really) - he would have lost to Liddy every time.

    Actually I praised Nixon for his good work while evenhandedly also exposing his flaws because that’s how I always roll. Unlike you and OD (and others) - I tell the truth. And sorry - not sorry - to say, I have not only praised Nixon on this board in the past - I’ve even said good things about your favorite Homeless Hairdo master at times.

    As always - note proper use of BOLD text.


  45. by Ponderer on May 25, 2025 7:36 am

    Oh how I love this.

    This experiment to get MAGA Hat Hate to prove how absolutely and totally devoted he is to defend and support Donald Trump with every fiber of his being couldn't have been more of a success. This fuckingclown, MAGA Hat Hate, who says he doesn't support or defend Trump at all is falling all over himself to support and defend Trump's corruption. What a fuckingliar he is.

    He has been proving in this thread how little he cares about any of Trump's crimes and corruption by trying to defend the position that his crimes aren't really "crimes", that Trump's corruption isn't really "corruption". And that if what he ever does is corrupt, it suddenly isn't corrupt because he's doing out in the open.

    By MAGA Hat Hate's logic, robbing a bank isn't a crime if the "robber" does it in public during regular business hours with all the security cameras running.

    MAGA Hat Hate thinks that every heinous act that Trump is dropping out of nowhere on the American people right now is totally cool because no matter what it is that he does, it's what he ran on doing and "The People" want him to do it. And if Trump has to break the law or wipe his fat orange ass with the Constitution, that should be perfectly fine with everyone, because MAGA Hat Hate thinks that the American people elected him to break the law, scam his position for any financial gain he can scam, and destroy our democratic system of government to do it.

    MAGA Hat Hate has not only proven how obsequious his cultish devotion to defending Trump is, but he has also more than proven my oft times cited theory that MAGA Hats like him are absolutely and entirely ignorant of and oblivious to what constitutes an equitable comparison. They are simply incapable of making or understanding one. It's like a blindness they have. Like they also have with empathy.

    MAGA Hat Hate is a blind person who keeps insisting to people that he isn't blind, as we watch him trip over everything in his path and walk face-first into wall after wall over and over again.

    Not comprehending what an equitable comparison is, he not only can't see one where one can be made, but he insists that there is one when the two things he's comparing couldn't be more unequal.


    It hasn't been hard for anyone else here in this thread to understand the egregious level of criminality and corruption in this administration for what it is in comparison to any corruption of any other president. The stark, gaping divide between the level of corruption that Trump has done and anything any other president ever did COMBINED couldn't be more of a Grand Canyon of a chasm. We have the capability to make such a comparison that MAGA Hat Hate absolutely and sadly lacks. MAGA Hat Hate stands on the precipice of such a chasm and declares, "There's no 'chasm'!", as he walks right into it and over the edge.

    It of course won't stop him from running flat-out into walls as he laughs at the rest of us for being so "deranged" about Trump.

    "What wall...? There's no wall in my way! You guys are so stupid to think there's any walls around here at all!", as the blood streams down his face and the spot on the wall he ran into.

    There's even some skin from his nose stuck to the wall where he smashed his face into it.

    This is the existential place he has glued himself into. He is existentially forced to support, defend, and champion everything that is Donald Trump, his glorious emperor god. No matter what he does or how despicably bad it is, MAGA Hat Hate will defend it to the death.



    "Walls??? You guys are crazy! What walls? What a joke you are!"



  46. by Indy! on May 25, 2025 8:11 am

    Brown Shorts is the canary in the coal mine in regards to this country falling for the Homeless Hairdos dictator ambitions. I look at him and realize - yes - this country is stupid and ill-informed enough to fall into the same authoritarian hole a lot of other countries have fallen into. And OD as well. He’s (allegedly) a military veteran, so you would assume he has at least some education on how America is supposed to work and yet he defends the corruption too as he tries to deflect it all back on Biden.


  47. by Indy! on May 25, 2025 8:13 am

    Oh - and btw - I’m not defending Biden. He was corrupt too. He was personally corrupt though. He did things for himself and his family that were corrupt. But he wasn’t attempting to corrupt the country like Trump.

    Right. And I suppose that mentioning that Nixon wasn't anywhere near the corrupt asshole that Trump is means that we are "praising and defending" Nixon.

    Idiots like MAGA Hat Hate are difficult to converse with because they have so much difficulty knowing what words mean and how to use them. It's part of the main reason that I never converse with MAGA Hat Hate anymore.

    Here's a comparison that MAGA Hat Hate will laugh off, regardless of its total accuracy:

    Compared to Trump's corruption, every other president's corruption looks like shoplifting a candy bar from a 7-11.

    Yet he and other MAGA Hats will try to make out Biden's possible corruption as the worst of the worst. Because they have to. In order to make Trump's crimes look less horrible, they have to always make Biden's to be worst. And they never seem to need actual proof either.

    While Trump and his family's corruption blows through the ceiling, the MAGA Media Machine looks at everything but.



    "Boy, the level of corruption in
    the Biden Crime Family was off
    the charts, wasn't it? My god,
    the TENS OF THOUSANDS of dollars
    supposedly from foreign regimes
    that Hunter walked away with
    after his father's administration
    ended! You just can't get more
    corrupt than THAT!"

    po,

    There's reason why moderate and independent common sense voters chose Trump so overwhelmingly in 024 that they presented the keys to the Oval Office, Congress and the Supreme Court to GOPs.

    I'm convinced that you lot, with your irrational and undeserved loathing of Trump, and MAGA, cast them as victims and sympathetic figures... in the eyes of the innocent bystanders in American politics... the few people in the middle who settle elections.

    Trump is the weakest candidate to have been elected president, and now twice, based on the way your hate propelled millions who are not MAGA to choose him over your candidate.

    Truly,... you are to blame.

    "Yet he and other MAGA Hats will try to make out Biden's possible corruption as the worst of the worst."

    Huh

    No.

    pb's said many times that the Flatulent Fool was, very simply, a typically corrupt member of the DC Swamp. Joe's type are a dime a dozen in DC.

    "Oh and by the way, can you get my
    father out of prison for the felonies
    that he committed and appoint him to
    a cushy ambassador position...? Thanks."


  53. by Ponderer on May 25, 2025 9:19 am

    So now, MAGA Hat Hate thinks that Trump's corruption is no worse than any run-of-the-mill, dime a dozen, typical Washington corruption. If he's actually willing to admit to any of Trump's corruption at all.


  54. by HatetheSwamp on May 25, 2025 9:19 am

    po,

    That's minor league DC graft. It's not FAR AND AWAY the greatest corruption EVER.

    Hate,

    Do you have a rebuttal to the argument that I put forth about Nixon?


  56. by HatetheSwamp on May 25, 2025 9:36 am

    Navy,

    Only one brief rebuttal: Subjectivity is truth.


  57. by Indy! on May 25, 2025 10:11 am

    Unfortunately for your... ahem... "argument", Brown Shorts - the law is not subjective.

    Some here will complain about the source but none will be able to contradict the facts.

    As Trumps Monetize Presidency, Profits Outstrip Protests
    The president and his family have monetized the White House more than any other occupant, normalizing activities that once would have provoked heavy blowback and official investigations.

    The Trumps are hardly the first presidential family to profit from their time in power, but they have done more to monetize the presidency than anyone who has ever occupied the White House. The scale and the scope of the presidential mercantilism has been breathtaking. The Trump family and its business partners have collected $320 million in fees from a new cryptocurrency, brokered overseas real estate deals worth billions of dollars and are opening an exclusive club in Washington called the Executive Branch charging $500,000 apiece to join, all in the past few months alone.

    Just last week, Qatar handed over a luxury jet meant for Mr. Trump’s use not just in his official capacity but also for his presidential library after he leaves office. Experts have valued the plane, formally donated to the Air Force, at $200 million, more than all of the foreign gifts bestowed on all previous American presidents combined.

    And Mr. Trump hosted an exclusive dinner at his Virginia club for 220 investors in the $TRUMP cryptocurrency that he started days before taking office in January. Access was openly sold based on how much money they chipped in — not to a campaign account but to a business that benefits Mr. Trump personally.

    GOP response...

    "HUNTER BIDEN! YOU LIBERALS WON'T EVEN CRITICIZE HUNTER BIDEN!!!!!!"

    "The president and his family have monetized the White House more than any other occupant, normalizing activities that once would have provoked heavy blowback and official investigations."

    It's classless. Not illegal.

    And, this is what I hate about the Swamp. SwampGOPs excuse everything Trump does... as SwampDems did with "that feckless dementia-ridden piece of crap's" Crime Family.

    And, t'other side tries to imprison him when he belches without saying, "Excuse me."


  61. by Ponderer on May 25, 2025 11:01 am

    Curt, nothing you are citing that Trump has done in any way whatsoever constitutes "corruption" in MAGA Hat Hate's book. He is incapable of ever seeing and acknowledging the realities of just what Trump is and how corrupt and criminal the things he does are.

    What is clearly blatant to the rest of us is 100% transparently invisible to him.


    Because it has to be.


    I mean, how could he sanely, logically and morally continue to support, defend, and champion his felonious messiah if what everyone can see and easily analyze about him were true? MAGA Hat Hate would be living a complete and total, willful lie right now if it was and if he was aware of it. The very foundation of his existential being is based on his firm faith that this Republican president is better, in every way, than any possible Democrat president could be or has ever been.

    So he has sunk so low as to wave away even the possibility of his gluttonous golden god... this incalculably corrupt despot... ever doing a single corrupt or illegal thing. It simply can't happen in MAGA Hat Hate's Universe.


    It is so clear to anyone not so existentially attached to supporting, defending, and championing this president and quite literally anything that he ever does just how feloniously criminal and corrupt he is. And how his corruption stacks up historically to any other politician in history.

    And it is just as clear to anyone just how far up Donald Trump's ass MAGA Hat Hate is by defending him as he always does.

    So he is forced to mock us for our basic observance of the evidence of our own eyes and ears. We must be titled deranged. We must be the ones who are insane for not accepting his delusional world as the real one. We aren't just misjudging him. Why, we shouldn't even be judging him AT ALL! I mean... well... BIDEN!!!!!


  62. by HatetheSwamp on May 25, 2025 11:03 am

    Indy,

    The bottom line with little Hunter?: Moderate and independent common sense voters saw it all. Now,...

    ... GOPs own everything for at least two years. Bahaha ha.


  63. by Indy! on May 25, 2025 11:15 am

    And it's comical that - to this day - he still won't admit he willfully, wantonly and happily voted THREE TIMES for the orange ass monkey. I bet he even had an orgasm when he pulled to lever for his favorite tangerine tyrant the third time.


  64. by HatetheSwamp on May 25, 2025 11:27 am

    I used a paper ballot.


  65. by Navy2711 on May 25, 2025 1:08 pm
    Hate,

    Do you have a rebuttal to my well thought out argument, or no? I really want YOU to demonstrate a proper response to a foot-stomping, pig-headed denial of an obvious truth.

    So again, my argument is, "Nuh uh."

    You have the floor.


  66. by meagain on May 25, 2025 1:15 pm
    " the law is not subjective."

    HtS still doesn't get it. Laws are an objective truth. Subjective truth is personal feelings and opinions. It can be objectively wrong but subjectively true.


  67. by HatetheSwamp on May 25, 2025 1:38 pm

    Subjectiv-ity.


  68. by Indy! on May 25, 2025 2:26 pm

    Anyone else notice who's avoiding this thread like the plague? Where's our super American alpha (snicker) male military expert who's always trying to pretend like he's the only person on the board who took American History in high school? He can't show his face when he knows he's part of the problem.
