Cohen is in a world of hurt. He's a wingnut's idea of what a good lawyer looks like. He has joked about getting a 2.0 GPA from the worst law school in America. And to think, he was Trump's personal attorney. Goodfellas.

Bezos just made more money today than the Dotard’s most exaggerated wealth claims, lol. Poor little Donny. Must be tough on him, seeing someone he hates so much being far more successful than Donny will ever be.

SSEATTLE (The Borowitz Report)—Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, announced on Tuesday that when the purported “pee tape” becomes available it will be offered free to all Amazon Prime members.

Speaking to reporters in Seattle, Bezos said that the pee-tape offer was “consistent with Amazon’s mandate to offer the highest-quality content to our customers.”

Bezos acknowledged that the tape had not surfaced yet, but said that Amazon was “working around the clock to make that happen.”

Bezos’s offer drew a mixed response from Prime members, with some begging Amazon not to offer the pee tape to them.

Over all, though, interest in the tape was robust, as pre-orders for the item quickly made it the highest-ranking product on the entire Amazon site.

According to its product page, customers who bought the pee tape also bought “A Higher Loyalty” by James Comey.

For those who think the GOP can be rescued, the defeat of Trump and the GOP majorities in both houses are necessary but not sufficient. A new generation may be required to articulate shared values and put forth an agenda that slows or reverses centrifugal forces pitting Americans against one another. A rehabilitated GOP would need to cease its aversion to objective truth and dump its attachment to conspiracy theories. It would need to drop an economic agenda that bears little resemblance to 21st-century experience. It could no longer ignore vast differences in wealth (that now manifest themselves even in disparate life expectancy rates) or wallow in nostalgia for a time when white males dominated nearly every aspect of life.

And this comes from a conservative.

Trump Asks If There Are Hispanics In The Room Before Demanding His Wall
Quote:
President Donald Trump was met with silence at a campaign-style rally in Michigan Saturday night when he asked if there were any Hispanics present, then repeated his demand for a border wall.

“Any Hispanics in the room?” Trump asked to relative silence. “Naw, not so many? That’s OK.”
He had this rally instead of attending the WH Correspondents Dinner, second year in a row. Bully's and hypocrites are usually cowards.

Elmer Gantry should be required reading for Trumpies. Problem is, most of them don’t read.

Sad what our grandparents and Presidents until Reagan fought and died for is all for naught now.

I am really starting to think what has occurred with the Freedom Caucus and Fox News running the country with their pissant attacking, insulting everybody who doesn't kiss his ass is mostly the same as Pootin has done except he can get away with making his threats disappear and China executing any internal threat is a fascist world order of the oligarchs controlling everything on the planet Earth.

Trump's thoughts on democracy,
