Copycats…but slopping out is still in vogue where he’s going.
What a sad ending and no overcoats in there either.
Wont he look good in a stripey suit with a chain dangling behind him attached to Rudy…

Nice to see you “back”.
Careful, original thought only. Keep posting links and quotes and videos and you might end up a member of the crayon crew.

Trump is not a courageous man, as we saw from his flight to the White House bunker during a Black Lives Matter demonstration (and before that, by his unwillingness to sit down with special counsel Robert S. Mueller III). He managed to get out of fighting in Vietnam five times, claiming “bone spurs” for one of them.
In other words…Yellow
I know! We finally have a courageous man in Joe Biden who took a chain to that Popcorn dude!
And didn’t he evade the law to see his best friend Nelson Mandela when he was in prison in South Africa.
There is some other, pretty impressive, stuff he’s done over his 47 years in office that I’ll share as I remember.

Where’s the follow-up tweet/speech inciting violence on the Capitol and law makers? You know, be strong, weakness won’t get your country back.
‘If you don’t fight like hell you’re not going to have a country anymore’"
As of December 1, more than two-thirds of the 50 states had certified their election results, including all of the closely contested swing states, handing victory to Democratic presidential and vice presidential candidates Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
Nevertheless, President Trump on December 2 released a video statement from the White House in which he repeated a litany of fraud claims that have been rejected by courts and election officials across the country.
Ok…and then…

DR. KENNETH PAUL ROSENBERG AND NORMAN ORNSTEIN | OPINION CONTRIBUTORS
One of us is a psychiatrist, the other a political scientist. We have watched the fiasco since the election with mounting trepidation, from two very different perspectives. But we have a common bond: For more than a decade, each of us has worked to advocate for people with serious mental illness to get treatment. We are coming together now to advocate for immediate intervention for our president.
Since President Donald Trump’s election, the psychiatric community has debated calling out his illness(es). The American Psychiatric Association says we should remain silent out of fear that we would violate the Goldwater Rule — an APA rule adopted largely to prevent the partisan misuse of psychiatric diagnoses to unduly influence an election. But it is clear what many psychiatrists know privately, and a few have said publicly. The threat to our democracy is too great to remain silent.
Not just tantrums or selfishness
It may be no surprise that Trump railed against a 2020 election process that promised a major increase in turnout through early voting and voting by mail. He and many Republicans have advocated for ways to suppress votes, and suggested repeatedly that when everybody votes, Republicans lose. Remember, Trump had said before the 2016 election that if he lost, it was rigged; if he won, it was fair.
It also may be no surprise that Trump denied the outcome of the 2020 election in the days that followed it, despite the fact that President-elect Joe Biden’s margins in battlegrounds Michigan and Pennsylvania were larger than Trump’s four years ago and he flipped Arizona and Georgia to the Democratic column. And it is true that there is neither a legal nor constitutional requirement for a presidential candidate to concede when he has lost.
But Trump’s behavior since is antithetical to every norm we have in a democracy that values as much as anything the legitimacy of elections and the peaceful and orderly transfer of power after voters have spoken.
