Trump: A Timeline

at

Non profit US publishing house McSweeneys has been compiling a detailed timeline of Donald Trump’s most egregious pronouncements and actions.  736 items so far, and counting. To wit:

We called this list a collection of Trump’s cruelties, collusions, and crimes, and it felt urgent then to track them, to ensure these horrors — happening almost daily — would not be forgotten. This election year, amid a harrowing global health, civil rights, humanitarian, and economic crisis, we know it’s never been more critical to note these horrors, to remember them, and to do all in our power to reverse them. This list will be updated between now and the November 2020 Presidential election.

    …pretty despicable alright…the only bright side is that the rest of the world dodged the crooked Hillary bullet…

      It’s crazy that in a country with 330 million people that the choice for president came down to Trump or Hillary….

        Interesting yet impossible counter alright Nidge
        But
        Imagine the reaction if I accepted a high profile hotly contested gig with my kids from three different fathers at my side

        And remember my hands are clean
        And all my closets hide are clothes – still with tags – still too small
        Yet the reaction …..

          Expect a searing intensively covered expose on how the labels on your clothes prove you’re unfit for office while Trump draws applause for skinning puppies for a coat on live TV.

          As a proud womb owner that has housed 9 conceptions by 8 different fathers… I would say that US Republicans & Democrats are cheeks of the same botty, albiet one is more pustulantly encrusted than the other.

          Choosing one head or the other, when each head is actually a semi-sentient carbuncle ooozing gaseous excretions one might mistake for sentient language use, growing out of a rotten metastatic morass that is an entirely different monster altogether is timewasting to say the least!

          I will continue to donate my spare earned income to indigenous peoples worldwide and I don’t want those books back; I’m going to give more books away to charity
          “Let us have done with these books!”

          Thatcher was horrible but I’ve never seen ayone accuse her of being crooked – outside the inherent crookedness of the British system of privelege and class, anyway.

          1. bisted

            …ok Nigel…I borrowed that ‘crooked’ moniker from somewhere…everyone seems to know how I mean…I would use a different descriptor to include Thatcher and Hillary…evil springs to mind…

          2. Nigel

            You borrowed the monikor from… Trump. Perhaps that should lead you to question your choices. And it’s funny, because I would consider the Republican Party evil. Their foreign policy atrocities certainly eclipse Obama and Clinton’s disasters. And yet you think it’s lucky the world got an incredibly powerful Republican Party for, well, four years so far.

          3. bisted

            …I wasn’t aware that Trump has started any new wars…crooked Hillary as Sec of State dropped over 100k bombs on 8 different countries…imagine what she’d have done with her finger on the nuclear button…

          4. Nigel

            You’re more aware that he agreeably scrambled out of the way to let Putin and Assad massacre with impunity.

          5. bisted

            …there was me thinking the Russians went to the aid of Syria which was next in line for regime change…wasn’t it crooked Hillary who precipated the attempted coup…wasn’t it she who armed and formed Isis?

          6. bisted

            …for you Nigel, I suppose admitting that crooked Hillary has engaged in slaughter is a step in the right direction…

      …if they had a do over-Pence as POTUS till Nov would be very appealing to R’s about now, we are witnessing decompression, last night on Hannity he described himself as perfect …a perfect person…its deeply rooted malignant narcissism-watch Bolton describe it-link above.

      They on track lose the Presidency and Senate,House control is nothing but a fond memory to R’s,he’s managed make Texas yes Texas a swing state-worst numbers since Carter and trending down,he now openly speaks of Bidens win-mentioned it twice yesterday.

      Many people don’t think he wants to run or can win, no path to victory if Texas is in play,US is facing some very challenging times ahead-with a POTUS unfit for office.

        Maggie Haberman at NYT and Josh Dawsey at WaPo are two the best journalists covering POTUS,Haberman had the first piece on the self destruction and questioning if he even wants a second term…

        “But for now, they said, the president is acting trapped and defensive, and his self-destructive behavior has been so out of step for an incumbent in an election year that many advisers wonder if he is truly interested in serving a second term.”

        Well if that’s the case

        Ladies get ready

        Because the majority of incoming FF Minsters are solid anti-choicers
        And a Pence White House won’t waste a minute wining and dining them
        On a promise

        And they are that useless and self serving they’ll lap it up and spoil him with public promises of intent
        Watch Jack Chambers and Anne Rabbitte particularly folks

          When Biden picks Kamala she will effectively be the first woman President in waiting,after straightening out America’s course she’s looking at 2 terms,so efficiently 12.
          Kamala is x LA prosecutor and a remarkable inspiring person,first term prosecute Trump/Barr and his other enablers,then lead us into the bright future that awaits-this too will pass America has survived trying times before.
          When even Trumps bottom Lindsay is openly critical of him the writing is on his imaginary wall,with most smart people rushing towards the exit doors.

            There are some other races of significant impact on Irl-i live stream it but two good friends of Ireland who’d i’d expect invite me, may not be around as Peter is retiring and Neil its in the race of his life, they are co-chairs of the congressional Friends of Ireland.

            Peter King is retiring his grandparents are from Inishbofin,he’s been a great friend to Ireland and will be missed,son of a NYPD officer,Peter is one the good guys, has been a great supporter the GFA.

            Richie Neal,has a very strong challenger from Hokyoke,a vengeful billionaire who is irked that Richie didn’t push his committee powers to obtain Trumps taxes, is backing this very strong, popular and progressive Mayor of Holyoke.

            https://www.masslive.com/politics/2020/06/alex-morse-says-rep-richard-neal-missing-in-action-on-police-brutality-neal-calls-morse-posturing-disgraceful-and-nauseating.html

            Ireland losing two great friends in Richie and Peter would be a very big loss, but offset by gaining a beloved Irish Catholic grandpa in the White House.

          2. Johnny Green

            -some continuity with Simon correctly holding onto his portfolio is great news for Ireland,Bolton address the likehood of a post Brexit bilateral trade deal with UK-first link above-slim.

            -day off V-working on “johnny green” there appears to be very little hope for long suffering medical cannabis patients and caregivers in the program, but doing some research, have a great weekend.

      Rest of the world yes, Hilary possibly would have gone to War in the Middle East, but Trump’s mishandling (via China’s CCP botched cover up) of covid 19 has actually killed way more Americans than would have died under Hilary. They have 120, 000 + deaths! Its astonishing. And he’s wrecked lives across the farming community with his trade wars.
      I honestly think Hilary would have made a much better, competent president. Trump’s IQ is comparable to a donkeys, and he’s deranged!
