Beyond infuriating. They are amplifying the rage of an insane man. Trump has morphed into a pretty dangerous sociopath before our eyes with an approving media.

irresponsible and infuriating
And, a lower-grade issue for sure, but - Trump's mere presence to tickle his own taint by cosplaying as an authority figure necessarily distracts (and siphons resources) from actual recovery efforts.

What responsible journalists WOULD be doing is using Trump's antics to contextualize them with his withholding of disaster funds from political enemies (California).

can someone say projection?
Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

In a couple senses.

The psychological sense, yes.

But also the soothsaying one: he is TELLING you that if he is successful in regaining the big chair, he will use its powers (in emergency relief spending and resource deployment) to favor political and business friends and punish enemies.

And, it has to be seared into our consciousnesses: there will be NO legal or political restraints on him from literally SELLING his favor, or his capacity to punish, for his own personal benefit.

Even for him and his campaign, bizarre.

Maybe DC was right after all!

Half of the world is one fire.
1/4 of the world is or will be at war.

Does anyone (who isn’t stupid) have an inkling that Donald Trump is a viable solution?

Half the world's criminal heads of State have been waiting for trumpty plumpty to leave office so that they could give him one more big lie to feed the rubes. If they can do anything to get him reelected, they will.

Cuz they know trumpty plumpty will let them plunder the planet like never before and tell the rubes it's a good thing. And they will lap it up and 'Merica will mean nothing and stand for nothing.

It was Khrushchev that said, "We do not have to invade the United States, we will destroy you from within."

What he got wrong was that it would not be creeping socialism that would be our downfall. It would be the morally, gluttonously corrupt that would do anything for power and wealth.

As always, thank you for your debt service rubes!

I bet Putin was surprised how easy it was.

He has had his eye on trumpty plumpty for some time. He knew exactly how easy it would be.

And Kamala figured him out as well and demonstrated that to anyone capable of critical thinking in the debate. All she had to do was mention "crowd size" and he was off message and ragewhining for the rest of the "debate".

Putting and Urban stroke his ego for the opposite effect. He is putty in their hands, a fat frail aging dog wagging his tail and rolling over submissive, begging for his belly to be rubbed again.

Imagine going out in public with that tacky hunk of shit watch, slightly overshadowing your impossibly shiny gold high tops, with a douchey Chinese made hat with a dipshit phase welded onto it. Your pockets are bulging with what you were told is 24 carat gold bars. That jingle is produced by 20 Trump coins rattling together with each manly step. Your tie is ridiculously long, just like your super hero.

And, you actually feel like everyone is dripping with envy. There smiling whispers to each other are their insecurities knowing that they could never be as cool as you. You can smell the jealousy.
