Thank you for watching Krasnov. I refuse to watch anything involving him unless he decides to immolate himself in the Oval Office. If that were on Pay Per View I would pay any amount to watch.

As far asother countries raping the US, if there were ever an expert on rape, it would definitely be him.

I hope he crashes the fuck out of the economy. We have a freezer full of meat and a garden, so we'll be eating good and hopefully the Trumptards are starving. Maybe they can eat their red hats and Trump flags. FAFO.

Dear Amerika thanks for bringing us closer together than we ever thought possible. Unfortunately, guess what? We have discovered that we are better off without you and in the near future will be trading exclusively amongst ourselves.

This comment/post is EXACTLY why Robert Reich and the Mouthy Renegade writer say, AND I TOTALLY AGREE for many reasons, DIVIDE the US INTO BLUE AND RED STATES AND BE DONE. ALL this arguing, money spending at taxpayers expense is LUDICROUS.

Trump doesn’t want to fix the economy—he wants to break it, blame others, and profit from the wreckage. Chaos feeds authoritarianism. When people are scared and divided, power concentrates. This isn’t failure. It’s a strategy. And history has warned us how it ends.

I've seen both spellings... actually... I'll look into it. :)

So I did look into it... and the consensus is... based on AP style, etc., "Idi" is the correct historical spelling. So... changed it. :) One errata mark I suppose.

Look at the bright side, America - during the Great Depression you also had Prohibition. This time around, at least the liquor stores will be open.

I was wondering if the tariffs would create a black market for products. I'm certain that someone will find something to sneak in without tariffs.

It will be a great time to sell your used European luxury cars.

So, more shortages of toilet paper, lysol and empty shelves at the grocery store. No more buying cars, TV's, gadgets and the like. Haven't we lived this movie already in 2020/22? No need for RTO office plans because everyone will be laid off. No jobs, equals no money to buy expensive goods nobody needs. We'll be seeing the hoarders coming out and cleaning the shelves off the grocery isles. Cars will be too expensive to buy, and no one will need to drive to empty stores and abandoned offices. Yes, the pain will be great, and the only ones who will afford what's coming will be those who enriched themselves by raping and pillaging the treasury before they tanked the economy.

Remember, everything they say is a confession of what they are doing themselves, while deflecting it on the other side.

It was as bad as I feared. Kee-rist, we're in a shitload of trouble.

We've been gathering nonperishables and such for a few months now. I've been working on getting a vegetable garden started using raised plant tables. That's going to continue into the indefinite future. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a huge trade war followed by a hot war. Trump's going to need a huge distraction for this, and war is a great way of doing that. I fear for my grandsons. 😔

If any of you remember the stories your grandparents told about living through the Great Depression, now would be a good time to start recalling them.

It's not liberation day ...he's illiterate it's Liquidation Day ....and sadly alot of us have learned survival skills already . Ut for those that don't know how to eat off of $3.00 a day ...they're going to have a hard time. The only ones who grow their own veggies will be the only ones who will have them because don't forget his destroyed our hard working immigrants trust in working in the fields and picking our needed supplies .

It would seem to me that we are all missing the obvious here: the man is seriously unwell. Now I am no expert and perhaps this notion has already been expressed here or elsewhere, but there is a serious case to be made that he suffers from FLS (frontal lobe syndrome). He has all the symptoms (see below). If so, the question remains: what do we do about it? His enablers are too invested for personal gain to see him kicked out (so forget 25) and Congress certainly won't do anything. Are we really doomed to suffer the extremely negative consequences of someone who is so obviously "not there"?

Frontal Lobe Syndrome refers to a group of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral symptoms caused by damage to the frontal lobes of the brain. People with FLS may speak fluently and seem rational, but their actions can be impulsive, disorganized, socially inappropriate, or harmful—often without awareness of the consequences.

Other than impulsiveness, people with FLS often display apathy, lack of motivation, poor judgment/planning, socially inappropriate behavior and confabulation.

Causes of FLS include TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury from accidents or falls), stroke, brain tumors, encephalitis and developmental brain malformations.

We can get only hope that things will be so bad here that Denmark will be able to buy us cheaply.

With his oversized 'executive orders' marker, he acts like a child showing off how much of an artist he is. And he is creative...at destruction.

Globalization being a demon is a myth that started decades ago by republicans when they began gaslighting America in preparation for today’s coup détat activities.

Well, a reciprocal is just an upside down ratio, and ratio is the root of rational, and the anti-root of a hypothetical third term is the cube, which is the shape of our new home, bizarro Earth (Htrae), which we warped over to on Jan. 20, due to a spastic convulsion in the spacetime continuum, and where anti-pretzeldent Melonhead thinks he's Superman, cause he's superaromatic, which is why he always moves assbackwardsly, to stay safely within the secure perimeter of his own stinkfield, which mere mortals cannot invade without self contained underrump breathing apparatus, and from which he occasionally grabs women by their privates, but only to keep from falling off the edge of the globe, which isn't a globe anymore cause he ended globalization. Cause, you know, stable genius. Also math. It's really quite simple. ton
