From the other side of he aisle Republican Steve Schmidt,

"Donald Trump has been the worst president this country has ever had. And I don't say that hyperbolically. He is. But he is a consequential president. And he has brought this country in three short years to a place of weakness that is simply unimaginable if you were pondering where we are today from the day where Barack Obama left office. And there were a lot of us on that day who were deeply skeptical and very worried about what a Trump presidency would be. But this is a moment of unparalleled national humiliation, of weakness.
"When you listen to the President, these are the musings of an imbecile. An idiot. And I don't use those words to name call. I use them because they are the precise words of the English language to describe his behavior. His comportment. His actions. We've never seen a level of incompetence, a level of ineptitude so staggering on a daily basis by anybody in the history of the country whose ever been charged with substantial responsibilities."

"It's just astonishing that this man is president of the United States. The man, the con man, from New York City. Many bankruptcies, failed businesses, a reality show, that branded him as something that he never was. A successful businessman. Well, he's the President of the United States now, and the man who said he would make the country great again. And he's brought death, suffering, and economic collapse on truly an epic scale. And let's be clear. This isn't happening in every country around the world. This place. Our place. Our home. Our country. The United States. We are the epicenter. We are the place where you're the most likely to die from this disease. We're the ones with the most shattered economy. And we are because of the fool that sits in the Oval Office behind the Resolute Desk."

These people are telling it as it is and people are finally waking up.

'Thank god for patriots like Obama, I wish them and the US well.'

if ever anyone needed evidence of TDS syndrome Joe provides clear evidence.

An excellent essay Binoy.

Nothing like stirring Trump's OLO Troglodytes :)

Even these Trogs will agree its undeniable President Trump of the "high IQ" boast likes to win.

Trump's such a winner that he’s won the Russian Intelligence Award for Russia’s Most Valuable Agent of Influence, with special mention for "Damage to American Democracy" and "Trashing the Western Alliance”.

For Russia's best agents, involved in Operation Trump, The Order "For Merit to the Fatherland" and even the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_St._Andrew are insufficient.

Each Russian has been awarded the ultimate accolade, “Hero of Trump's Dump”.

Pete,

One problem for whoever comes after Trumpf in January is that he's filled his own fetid swamp with his cronies and fellow-crooks and driven out anybody with integrity, that it may take some time to restore some sort of competent and sober administration, in order to slowly regain world moral leadership again.

DTS ! Drain the Trumpf Swamp ! ASAP !

Joe

Hi Joe

Yes if Biden wins and as with any change in Presidency, the 1,000s of political appointments know they will be replaced.

Many of Trump's own troglodytes, that so many OLO commenters look up to, will eventually do time in the gaols they belong.

Another thought - will Trump pardon Assange for Wikileak's Democrat dirt digging support for Trump's 2016 (and 2020?) campaigns?

Cheers

Pete

What's the Australian equivalent of OFA ?
