Look out — Republicans are defecting from Trump’s MAGA army in droves
As someone who was once a Republican “never Trumper” and now supports Harris, I have seen firsthand the shift that is happening within the Republican party. It’s evident that many Republicans are starting to distance themselves from Trump and his toxic rhetoric. The once unwavering support for Trump is now wavering, and people are starting to see the light.
The recent announcements of Republicans, such as Rep. Barbara Comstock, casting their ballots for Harris are a clear indication of this trend. It’s a positive step towards reclaiming sanity in politics and rejecting the dangerous ideologies that Trump represents.… Continue reading
Trump’s former Press Secretary, Stephanie Grisham, recently made some startling revelations during her testimony to the J6 committee. She shed light on the manipulative and deceitful nature of Donald Trump, sharing that he had once told her, “It doesn’t matter what you say, Stephanie, say it enough, and people will believe you.” This statement alone speaks volumes about the moral compass, or lack thereof, that the former President possesses.
Grisham also shared a troubling text message exchange with Melania Trump on January 6, 2021. In the messages, Grisham asked Melania if she wanted to tweet condemning lawlessness and violence, to which the first lady simply replied, “No.”… Continue reading
Tim Walz truly set the tone for a refreshing and inspiring start to the Democratic National Convention by not mentioning Trump or Vance during his kickoff speech. It was a brilliant move that shifts the focus away from the negativity that has marred political discourse in recent years. Instead of dwelling on the antics of the opposition, Walz chose to highlight the positive vision and unity that the Democratic Party represents.
In a climate dominated by negative partisanship, where attacks and insults seem to take center stage, it is incredibly powerful to see a politician like Tim Walz take the high road.… Continue reading
I can’t help but feel a sense of relief and hope as new polls show that Kamala has many paths to victory over Trump in the upcoming election. It has been a tumultuous few years with Trump in office, and the idea of him potentially being defeated is a breath of fresh air. The thought of a different leadership, one that prioritizes the needs of the people and works towards unification rather than division, is invigorating.
One key aspect that stands out to me is the importance of not getting complacent. We saw in 2016 how overconfidence and assuming victory can lead to unexpected outcomes.… Continue reading
As I watch Trump’s antics unfold on the campaign trail in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, I can’t help but be amazed by his audacity. Going off teleprompter and boldly declaring that he is better looking than Kamala Harris while insisting that he doesn’t ramble is both perplexing and concerning. It seems that Trump’s approach to judging people is solely based on looks and money, without any regard for policies or character.
The fact that Trump’s own handlers and fellow Republicans are constantly trying to keep him on script speaks volumes about his erratic and unpredictable behavior. He seems to thrive on adoration from his crowds, which only fuels his narcissism and ego.… Continue reading
Trump’s recent question about the necessity of holding an election is a stark reminder of his relentless attempts to undermine democracy. The notion that he is polling at 93%, a number seemingly plucked out of thin air, reeks of desperation and delusion. In his mind, it appears that winning is a foregone conclusion, and any deviation from this outcome will be labeled as theft. This dangerous rhetoric is not just absurd; it is a calculated move to sow doubt and division among his supporters.
The disturbing part is not Trump questioning the need for an election; it is his insidious strategy of priming his base to contest the results if he doesn’t win.… Continue reading
FBI raids US home of Russian-born analyst who advised Trump in 2016. The news of yet another Russian connection to Trump shouldn’t come as a surprise anymore. It seems like a never-ending saga that unfolds with each passing day, revealing deeper ties and questionable relationships that have cast a shadow of doubt over the former president’s administration.
This particular analyst, who is Russian-born and has been on Putin’s payroll, raises red flags that cannot be ignored. How does someone who seemingly grew up outside of Russia and whose parents were dissidents end up working for the Russian government and advising the President of the United States?… Continue reading
Trump Just Voted in Florida as a Felon — Where’s DeSantis’ Outrage?
The recent news that Donald Trump voted in Florida as a felon has sparked outrage among many, but one key figure seems notably absent from the fray — Governor Ron DeSantis. Trump, who has been a vocal proponent of disenfranchising felons and ending early voting, took advantage of these very provisions to cast his early vote in the state. This blatant hypocrisy has left many wondering why DeSantis, who previously vowed to ensure Trump’s eligibility to vote in Florida, has remained silent in the face of such brazen misconduct.… Continue reading
As the upcoming election approaches, the stark contrast between the candidates is becoming more evident than ever. The divide between Trump and Harris is not just about politics, but about fundamental values and morals. It is a battle between decency and indecency, between progress and regression, between common sense and nonsense. In this election, the biggest division is not solely based on gender, but on the basic principles that define us as human beings.
For too long, the current administration has failed to uphold the principles of democracy and decency. The alarming disregard for the rights and well-being of all individuals, regardless of gender, race, or background, has shaken the very core of our society.… Continue reading
Every time I hear about Trump’s latest antics, it feels like I’m witnessing a live performance of a deranged circus act. With Froot Loops by his side, Trump gives another cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs performance, further solidifying his status as a creepy, weird, and out-of-touch individual unfit to lead a country, much less handle a simple cash register.
During his latest speech, Trump meandered through nonsensical ramblings, showcasing his inability to maintain a coherent thought. Surrounded by tables of bacon and condiments, he delivered a 50-minute tirade filled with personal attacks, delusions of grandeur, and baseless claims that seemed disconnected from reality.… Continue reading
