This 8s the hill you want to defend considering how little time your orange god actually works?

He spends more time dreaming people will kiss his ass. It must be a bucket list item for him as it's never happened.

President Repeatedly Responds ‘I Don’t Know’ to Constitutional Questions

www.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com

"President Trump said in an interview aired on Sunday that he did not know whether it was his job to uphold the Constitution and wavered when asked whether every person on American soil was entitled to due process, even though the Fifth Amendment says as much."

Ho hum, just another full day of Trump engaging in behavior that's been wholly disqualifying for every previous US President and Presidential candidate.

Donald Trump is simultaneously dumber than a hammer and has never done an actual day of work in his life. Yet you lablel someone else as an idiot slacker?

You're really such a deeply unserious person and I truly question your ability to think critically about much of anything.

You must have missed the day where Donald the Developer was walking around the Whitehouse lawn and pointing to where he wanted the two new Whitehouse flag poles to be installed because “they’ve needed flagpoles for 200 years.”

There's never been such a visionary and hard worker occupying the Whitehouse and if you forget the fact that there is a flag/flags that already fly over the Whitehouse, it makes perfect sense.

I’m assuming you mean “openly gay” and “openly atheist.” We’ve probably had a gay president (Buchanan) and I would be willing to bet we’ve had a president or two who was an atheist but didn’t say it out loud.

Why couldn’t the father who wasn’t the Sec of Transportation take time off during a supply chain crisis? If you’re unable or unwilling to do your job then resign.

She ran against Trump in the Trumplican Party.

“Moderates” and “Independents” seem to prefer right-wing blacks and women to Liberal blacks and women.

True, but moderates and independents don't usually vote in GOP presidential primaries, and Haley would have lost the GOP nomination even if Trump hadn't been running. Not only was she a woman in a party dominated by misogynistic men, she was also doomed the moment that her opponents pointed out that her birth name was Nimarata Randhawa and that she was the Indian-American daughter of Sikh immigrants.

You're right that a conservative white woman would be more likely to win a general election than a liberal one, especially one of color, but the problem is that they've got to win the GOP nomination first, and I don't see enough GOP primary voters being willing to vote for a woman (including a white one) to be the nominee, especially if there's a suitable right-wing white guy running against her. I still think the best chance for a woman to become POTUS anytime soon, in either party as this point, will be for one to run and win as veep and the president she's serving dies or has to quit for some reason and she takes over.

In the Bible he loves 2 Corinthians

The fact that the great majority of religious fundamentalists blindly believe in and follow this guy and honestly believe that he's been chosen by god to save America really does say it all about the seriousness and quality and intelligence of that particular branch of Christianity. It's a sham (and always has been, to be honest.)

Isn't it great that companies and organizations in this country are finally realizing how important those first months of life are and providing paternity and maternity leave. So many othe countries are so far ahead of the US in this area. My company now provides 8 weeks of maternity or paternity time off.

Too bad the right again doesn't understand. Isn't there motto, "here's your bootstraps, pull them up and get to work". Or is it: "we only care while we can use you as a wedge issue, now that you're born we don't care anymore. " ?

Or…just hire a nanny or AU pair. 😀

Ah. But, you see, he wasn’t unwilling or unable to do the job.

He took a two-month “leave” but still engaged in high priority matters during that time. Returned fully in October 2021 with 3.25 years left to do his job.

And who resigns from their job because they feel the need to take a temporary leave?

If that's the options, then you had better be supporting a living wage or other wage increases. I can count you in as a supporter, correct?

Not everyone lives in that top 1% and can afford to pay full time salaries for such jobs.

You know you are getting as unserious as Silence Dogood.

Do you take vacations? WHY, don't you have a job to do? Why should anyone take time off of work when there's work to be done.

And don't say you completed it. If you completed all the work, then we don't need you any longer.
