Comment on What we ask of our presidents is too much

A new name has popped up in the chatter about Donald Trump’s potential pick for vice president: Sen. Tom Cotton. He’s reportedly high on the list because of his “experience and the ability to run a disciplined campaign.” As a running mate, the Arkansas senator “would carry relatively little risk of creating unwanted distractions for a presidential campaign already facing multiple legal threats,” according to The New York Times. But it sure seems risky to put a no-holds barred racist, sexist creep on a debate stage with Vice President Kamala Harris.

Considering a vote for Robert Kennedy Jr.? It's crucial to understand that RFK Jr. is not just any candidate but a dangerous one who could help Trump win. The fact that his two biggest campaign donors are his running mate and Timothy Mellon, who is also a huge donor to Donald Trump, raises serious concerns.

Donald Trump never served, and Trump's family members didn't serve, either. It's a family tradition to avoid serving. Donald's grandfather, Frederick, was kicked out of Germany for failing to do his mandatory military service there. Because many veterans don't want to make Memorial Day all about them, they feel uncomfortable when people wish them a "Happy Memorial Day."

'Happy Memorial Day to All, including the Human Scum that is working so hard to destroy our Once Great Country, & to the Radical Left, Trump Hating Federal Judge in New York that presided over, get this, TWO separate trials, that awarded a woman, who I never met before (a quick handshake at a celebrity event, 25 years ago, doesn't count!), 91 MILLION DOLLARS for "DEFAMATION."' Trump insisted.

(video from Aug 20, 2023) No, it's not a cult. Here's what happened after Eric Trump agreed that his family 'sacrificed for the country': And we will do it again!

Donald Trump is so full of shit that we're going to need to attach a toilet flush on his jaw. Trump was relentlessly booed and heckled at the Libertarian Convention Saturday evening. But to hear his sycophants say it, their Trumpy bear was a smashing success, and the thunderous applause could be heard from eleventy bazillion miles away.

Rep. Madeleine Dean yesterday blasted Sam Alito for blaming his wife for displaying the upside-down flag outside his home in the days following the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. Via The Hill: In an interview on NewsNation’s “The Hill Sunday,” Dean invoked Memorial Day and stressed the importance of abiding by a code of ethics when asked to respond to the latest Alito controversy. “I think I’ll end where I started, which is: How do we honor the war dead in this country?
