Did that Orange fucker (currently live in Alamo, Texas) really just say that Covid rates are down in some areas along the border with Mexico because of his stupid bastard wall? He is now trying to spin the dreadful Covid rates in America which he turned his back on long ago into yet another success for him.
🤷🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️
Please make him stop, make the noise stop, make this nightmare end.

P.s He has pillaged the Village People back catalogue too. Is there no end to his reign of terror.

This just came up in my feed. He was a good man. What a comparison. John McCain's concession speech.

Just to add Re: The Village People - What exactly have they done to deserve being played at his appearances?

Roussette · 12/01/2021 20:38

Watching the FBI/DOJ presser. All I can say is... I would NOT want to be on the wrong end of these two guys...

Just to add Re: The Village People - What exactly have they done to deserve being played at his appearances?
It's just beyond bizarre. Do they not understand what the lyrics to Macho Man are all about?

But never mind that. Before Herr Trump's rally on Wednesday, the Orange Klan were dancing to Laura Brannigan's Gloria. Either they don't know the lyrics, or they are sub-consciously sending a message that they know they are losers:

Gloria, you're always on the run now
Running after somebody
You gotta get him somehow
I think you've got to slow down
Before you start to blow it
I think you're headed for a breakdown
So be careful not to show it

You really don't remember
Was it something that he said?
Are the voices in your head calling, Gloria?

Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'?
If everybody wants you
Why isn't anybody callin'?
You don't have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line
Oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria

I've just watched his speech at the wall.

There is much to talk about what he said, but what struck me the most, is he seemed to switch from autocue to going off script quite frequently. Which makes him sound rambling.

I suspect he was told to stick to the autocue, pre-written script and dont deviate. But he just couldn't help himself.

TheTangoTerrorIsTerrifying · 12/01/2021 21:04

@BlueCatRedCat - Excellent points. The irony is astounding isn’t it. Another song defiled by association. Loser doesn’t quite adequately sum up Tango man and his hangers on. He is certainly heading for a breakdown of some kind I just hope he gets jailed first before then.

As an aside, what exactly has happened to his spray tan machine? He seems to have cranked up the crazy to unprecedented levels on all counts.

BruceAndNosh · 12/01/2021 21:11

Apparently Trump used the words "Biden administration"
At last!

Gloria is such an odd song choice. But, since she sadly died in 2004, maybe it's one if the few songs they feel they can use without the artist saying, hell, don't you dare use my song! ?

Destinysdaughter · 12/01/2021 21:14

Where are you all watching his latest speech?

Watching CNN now, they're saying Mitchy Mc is being reported as being in favour of impeachment - to purge the GOP of Donald Trump.

Linky. I haven't read it yet myself.

The Memo is pretty clear

AskingQuestionsAllTheTime · 12/01/2021 21:58

It occurs to me that It's possible fewer of the Republican "core voters" are Trumpistas first and Republicans second than we (or the Republican elected Congress and Senate members) may think/fear. 75 million voted for him, but how many actually answered his call to his coup? As many as a million? I don't think I have seen a figure mentioned, but maybe he's not be quite as important as he seems just at present.

A Republican won the Presidency a couple-three times before Trump got involved, after all. The "core vote" were there before he was.

lionheart · 12/01/2021 22:01

GOP Rep. John Katko is backing the impeachment resolution.

lionheart · 12/01/2021 22:02

8 days.

lionheart · 12/01/2021 22:14

So Trump is threatening Biden with the 25th Amendment?! Hmm

I like that they specified '....to obey lawful orders...'.

A good way to let people know that if Scrotus tries to use the military or tries to 'push the button', ain't nothin' gonna happen.

lionheart · 12/01/2021 22:18

“The 25th amendment is of zero risk to me, but will come back to haunt Joe Biden and the Biden administration. As the expression goes, be careful what you wish for."
