(Patience, dear lady.)

    Is it really too much of a stretch to believe that Trump would love nothing more than to see violence committed on his behalf, given his well-documented love of chaos?

---

   Of course, Sarah Sanders side-stepped the question of the instances of the times Trump did disrespect the troops, which are legion.

---

     Your Karen o' the day.

---

     Only a rage-tweeting baboon would blame the MSM on his campaign losing $800,000,000 with nothing to show for it .

---

     Don, Sr. and I finally share some common ground.

“‘What the fuck is wrong with you?’ Trump screamed at his namesake. ‘You think you’re a big man sitting on the rocks and then boom! You kill some fucking animal? Then you drag your brother into this bullshit? Why the fuck would you post photos like that? Get the fuck out of my office.’”

     Donald Jr, Cohen writes, “left without a word, head downcast”.

---

     The Lincoln Project dug up a picture of Kyle Rittenhouse standing just a few feet from Trump at one of his rallies then used it in an ad.

---

     Yeah, yeah. Biden, the blacks, the apocalypse, yada yada. Does it really surprise anyone that Michele Bachmann would eventually come out of her spider hole to spout conspiracy theories?

---

     Your Brad o' the day.

---

     The mother called for a crisis intervention team. Instead, police showed up and shot her autistic 13 year-old son in four minutes, while he ran away.

---

     Black Twitter, do what you do best. Have at it.

---

     "Big John" Cornyn: Accusing a crook of being a crook is a criminal offense. I wonder how much Cornyn got from DeJoy back in the day?

---

     Shorter Trumpie the Klown: "You need to re-elect me to fix all the things that I broke!"

---

     Meme intermission

---

     Donald Trump raped E. Jean Carroll 20 years ago. Now it's the DOJ's turn to fuck her again by proxy. Yes, he's using the DOJ as his personal law firm. Shocking, I know.

---

    Yeah, he's given up on fighting COVID-19. Shocking, I know.

---

    “As a man of integrity, I will not sit idly by while outside entities attempt to destroy my character. The events over the past week are an attempt to destroy my character and integrity. The members of the Rochester Police Department and the Greater Rochester Community know my reputation and know what I stand for.”

      Among the things ex Chief Singletary stands for is cutting and running at the first sign of bad press, painting himself as the victim and sitting on top of the body cam footage for over five months after Daniel Prude died.

---

     The Army's own Chief of Staff says Trump's full of shit.

---

     Was Jerry Jr. blackmailed into endorsing Trump? Only time will tell.

---

     These arrogant right wing twats are saying the quiet parts out loud now.

---

     "Didn't want to create a panic." What a guy. Here's Trump translated: "I fucked up, I don't care how many die, but I'm lying to save my re-election chances.

     What no one else is asking: Why did Bob Woodward sit on this since early February, just prior to the first deaths in the US from COVID-19 (Hint: He was writing a book)? Nearly 200,000 deaths later, how does Woodward sitting on this for the last seven months make him less of a piece of shit than Trump?

---

     Shorter Baghdad Barbie: "You are not seeing the tanks rolling behind me with your lying eyes..."

---

     "In my dealings with him he was a heartless, obnoxious son of a bitch.”
     “Like most ex-military, I detest his love of having parades and having real military personnel salute him.”
     “One of the things that struck me was I don’t recall him being a good student at all. I was two years younger than him and he asked me to go over his essays for him and improve them. It was the only time I got to see the nature of his disability. I think his grades were mostly in the D-plus or C-minus range.” -People who knew Trump in the early 60's at the New York Military Academy.

---

     Oh, I'm sure they hired one of Barr's cronies.

---

     I loves me some Digby:

     "Trump once said he could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue without losing any voters. But it's possible that one group within his former base that isn't quite as gung-ho about his definition of 'winning' are members of the military. After all, they're the ones who will have to pay for his bellicose ignorance, not him. And then he'll call them losers and suckers for being foolish enough to follow his orders."

---

     California could always benefit from fewer Republicans. My only worry is they'll take down decent people with them.

---

     Something else Bob fucking Woodward could've told us much sooner rather than waiting until less than two months before the election.

---

     Trump knew and told Woodward that the coronavirus was killing kids. Yet he's still trying to keep the word from going out just as we're sending our kids back to school.

---

     Yeah, about that travel ban...

---

     According to the world's largest fetus, Karl Rove, it isn't possible to have a president who doesn't deceive the American people during a historic pandemic.

---

     Does this really surprise anyone?

---

     TWD's going off the air after season 11.  Damn, this makes me sad. I'm going to go off now and eat some brains. And finally...

---

     Because the most important thing is to not offend Trump by insulting his base with the facts.
