1) During the Covid pandemic, he opposed testing because it would show the number of cases was rising.

2) He promised Mexico would pay for the wall. When they didn’t, Steve Bannon and his buddies began raising money from Trump supporters to fund it. They stole some of the money, were caught, and indicted. Trump pardoned them. Pardoned the crooks stealing from his own supporters!

Not sure that 30% will ever wise up.

Justice matters.

It's not in the best interest of Faux Noise to remind their viewers of all the ridiculous promises Chump made.

then forgets about them rapidly, isn't a politician.

He is a huckster, a flim-flam artist, a fairy tale trader, a dealer of unrealistic promises, a seller of disappointment, a purveyor of chaos, a vendor of disappointment, a barrow boy and salesman of his own pipe dreams, a pedlar, a hawker, a trader and dealer, a seller, a purveyor and vendor of disappointment, a . . . . heck, just call it a Trump!

But please, don't call him a politician!

I see the wholesale consumer price index blah blah blah, but what counts -- the price of gas, food, rent I now pay -- that seems to have gone up many fucks of a lot more than 6 percent on a pro-annually rated basis or whatnot.
