I just threw up in my own mouth.

He mentioned God twice, himself 97 times.

Lots of grievances, no thought out solutions.

Everything is, "Like nobody has seen before."

His economic solution is: "No tax on tips."

Every problem we have is due to the "invasion of illegal aliens."

I'll end with Colin Jost's comments at the White House Correspondents' Dinner

“There’s an election six extremely long months from now. So let me see if I can summarize where this race stands at this moment: The Republican candidate for president owes half a billion in fines for bank fraud, and is currently spending his days farting himself awake during a porn star hush money trial, and the race is tied?!"


I can't wait until Joe wins and this loser slinks off to the Trump Old Folks Home.

And what's worse are the deluded people there who believe him and cheer and raise their fists like he does!

I couldn't take it one more minute, so I turned to one of the network late night shows, but every single one of them, CBS, ABC, NBC, were all showing the same sickening RW propaganda, there was no escaping his long winded boasting lies to his captive audience!
