The day to end all days when Donald Trump said the "inject bleach" thing. As our correspondent Red Painter reported on April 23, 2020:
Donald Trump is the dumbest person to ever hold political office in the history of the United States. He is uneducated, unwilling to learn, egotistical, arrogant, conceited, haughty and vain.
Fox News' The Five co-host Jesse Watters claimed Trump is being abused and severely punished because he has to appear in court like any other criminal defendant, rather than be out on the golf course.
The Five MAGA squad wondered why Trump isn't booking a multitude of rallies while he's forced to be in a Manhattan courtroom during his trial.
Idiot Watters said Trump should be doing gas stations, and Staten Island, and then launched into a rant so silly he didn't give anyone time to react.
Watters: But the guy needs exercise.
Steve Bannon, the leader of the seditious GOP megaphone clan advises diminished Don to not show up to the Manhattan courtroom during his trial and see what happens.
Bannon: Thursday's also on another topic uh the immunity situation one of the most important uh arguments in history of the Supreme Court.
This is a lie.
In the most heinous pot calling the kettle moment, Donald Trump attacked Michael Cohen: as being a pure liar.
Diminished Donald again took to the cameras to attack the prosecution case, district attorneys, and Michael Cohen.
After rambling several minutes about how nobody wanted to prosecute this case, he turned to his former personal attorney for a decade.
Now, when are they going to look at Pomerantz and what Pomerantz did?
Because that's bad stuff.
And when are they going to look at all the lies that Cohen did in the last trial?
He got caught lying in the last trial.
So he got caught lying.
Pure lying.
And when are they going to look at that?
A lie is a lie.
The HBO documentary The Truth vs Alex Jones, which premiered last month, takes a devastating look at grifter Alex Jones and the very real damage he did to those poor Sandy Hook families who were suffering so badly already.
I know this has been out there for a little while now, but if you have access to HBO or another service that is streaming the documentary, go watch it, but be prepared for a gut wrenching reminder of the horror the families experienced when the shooting occurred and to be infuriated by the fact that Jones basically tortured them for over a decade.
I thought Trump was possibly the worst human being in the United States that's still alive right now, but after watching the documentary on Jones, he may very well have him topped.
There are a couple of really good reviews on the film out there, one from Vanity Fair:read more
You knew the knives would come out after Rep. Tony Gonzales called Rep. Matt Gaetz and Rep. Bob Good "scumbags" this weekend on CNN's State of the Union. He called Matt Gaetz a pedophile ("I serve with some real scumbags. Matt Gaetz, he paid minors to have sex with him at drug parties.”) and Bob Good a member of the Ku Klux Klan for supporting his primary opponent, a guy he calls a known neo-nazi.
But remember, according to cable news, it's the Democrats who are always in disarray.
