One thing that bothered me tonight!

Yes, he lied thru the whole thing! But when he said he held the hands of the victims' family. I wanted to throw up. Sorry for the gross details but come on, what a B.S. lie! Pathetic and just disgusting from a man who has not empathy, no core values and who is just out right a sniveling weasel!

And drama, I kind of threw up in my mouth a little. It really was disgusting to hear him try to use that to jerk our emotions around. This from a disgusting thug who wouldn’t recognize empathy and compassion if they came dressed up in party clothes and leaped out at him. He does not have either of those traits in him. Never has. Never will. And yet he has no hesitancy to use them to promote his fantasy of getting his wall....his way.

And his base will buy it. That was what really irked me the most. He behaved himself and “seemed” almost rational. So they will believe him. I just hope as the shutdown goes on, the fallout comes to them, because it seems that the only way they will finally see the truth about this monster is when they personally get stung by his policies. That is the sad truth about them.

12. Yes, when he tries so hard to look empathetic, he just ends up looking constipated.

is that tens of millions of Americans support con man Trump and gleefuly cheer every fucking lie he spews out of his filthy mouth.

After the fall of Trump, the proto-fascists will find another "strong man" to rally around, and Fox "News" will proclaim the second coming of Ronald Reagan. The fight has just begun with the imminent downfall of the corrupt Trump cabal.
