with the likes of Jimmy Kimmel, and others when they poke fun at him. He goes on and on forever. Taylor Smith, etc., all of the personalities that have provoked him and he just goes off like a volcano (I like this description, a volcano).

Again highlighting the very dangerous component of his volatile personality, being president again? Would we want someone that goes off on a tangent every time someone mutters something negative to him? What's next w/ tRUMP, is he going to order a hit on these people, order the Secret Service to arrest these people for saying bad things about him, or making jokes about him?

He needs to retire permanently.

I think the only people who like Trump jokes are already anti-Trump.

For that ever decreasing share of uncommitted voters, they want or NEED to hear about the economy, immigration, inflation and social security/medicare...

And I think (and polling agrees) the whole "Democracy in Peril" meme isn't in the top 5-6 topics when voters are asked about top priorities.

Keep banging on kitchen table issues.

A person could suggest that his stupid policy ideas reflect his innate stupidity. That would addresss both issues with a single stone.

unacceptable and unpalatable as these pigs made being a liberal in the 80s. This whole death cult needs to be defeated and humiliated until they think twice before trying to get these illiterate sociopaths into office.
