You mean homosex gay or just gay, gay?

If he ignores most of his stated goals and takes rational advice he might not turn out to be as bad as we all think he is going to be ..it really depends what his patron Putin decides

Given that he jumped on the bandwagon after millions complained about the Repubs tried to gut the Ethics Department, his narcissistic need to be loved by all might serve the people well.

Only he's also a colossal fuckwit. Which means anything's possible and not all of it good

All I demand as I exercise my skills on my students is their total obedience and unceasing hard work.

[Brian Peacock]

And you are to be applauded for that Jim.

I think it's a bit late to be talking about nothing significantly negative happening with regards to Trump. He's already lowered the standard of discourse and is responsible for the surge in fake news websites, like Breitbart. Normalised bigoted behaviour and empowered white supremacists. Increased the number of attacks against minorities and has many more feeling unsafe. Appointed people to positions in departments they seem hell bent on destroying. Has divided a nation like unseen since the Civil War. And has possibly Tweeted his was into a second Cold War.

I can only imagine his time spent as... I can't even bring myself to say it... will be marked by increased activism and protests. His party tries to defund Planned Parenthood; women take to the streets. He tries to halt NASA's earth science division; NASA walk out. He tries to dismantle the EPA; environmentalists retaliate. He tries to go ahead and drill and frack; Native American tribes make a stand. Repubs try to reverse gay marriage laws; every decent person strikes back. And so on...

He is the most unpopular... gah! still can't say it... going into term with a net popularity of 0. More people voted against him than for him and they are not going to make this easy for him. And so they shouldn't. Trump needs to be ended. End of story. He simply cannot be allowed to make all the regressive steps and strip back hard won civil rights and unleash environmental vandalism at a time when we are seeing the beginnings of an extinction event. He just can't.

Fuck Trump. Fuck him.

Whoa. Yeah, can you pick my lotto numbers?

Trump will surely succeed in building the wall.

And it's going to be an enormous great wall. Built to last, out of the best materials.

Why should he scrimp on it? The Mexicans are paying for it.
