Trump quit?
ReplyDeleteYou mean just walk away from his failure, blaming somebody else?
You mean just like he's already done SIX TIMES?
Ridiculous!
Hahaha! The President is a master in winding up the presstitutes and watching them lose their little minds.
ReplyDelete^^Or get this geezer...he's a total moron, suffering from early-onset dementia, unable to think or speak clearly, can't walk without help and about to be voted out of office in an unprecedented blowout. Yep that's it!
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeleteI shed a tear for the oppressed multi-millionaire NBA players taking a knee.
Biden is still hiding from any tough questions in his basement. The guy's mind is completely gone. Watch how his campaign staff tries to get him out of the debates against Trump with the lamest of reasons or unreasonable demands.
ReplyDelete^^and yet he's STILL going to be the next president in a landslide. Weird.
ReplyDelete^^ Mind is as gone as Dementia Joe's. Too funny!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yet Dementia Joe is kicking the shit out of Trump and it's really not even close. Funnier still! Weird. Weird and funny.
ReplyDeleteMorning leftover Chitlins

The whole election delay thing was simply a tweet made by Trumptard to distract from what was an epic shit show of a day all the way around for Trump.

Herman Cain - dead due to COVID...acquired at a Trump rally

COVID continues to spread
Shit show.
Biden is already brain dead. In California, everyone talks about how Kamala Harris, his probable VP, slept her way to the top of politics there. How noble.
ReplyDeleteThe Dems want to load the mailboxes with ballots from illegals and dead people so Biden wins. They've already shown over the last four years that they don't care about justifying their means to get Trump out of office. The fact that Trump is still in office proves just how false their charges against him were, but yet American taxpayers had to pay the price for the stupid Mueller Report and other responses to fake charges. Can't wait for the Durham Report to show just how corrupt Obama, Biden and other Dems were in trying to hamper and remove a duly-elected president with no regard for the truth.
ReplyDelete^^No they don't Boomer. You're spreading false information and outright lies. Not a surprise most old, white people, traffic in them daily. This failed administration certainly does. It's what the feeble-minded do when they cannot explain why everybody hates them and they always lose. I can't wait for the imaginary Durham report either! About how long we been waiting now? Oh, the election comes in 3 months, think it will be out before then dummy? Here's a clue: NO. No it won't. Because there isn't one dummy. It's another lie the feeble-minded tell themselves to explain their failures away. You keep waiting CHUD!
ReplyDeleteCute 12:26 spewing the same unfounded, unsupported, no evidence at all bullshit that POTUS does. You win the best POTUS dicksucking post of the day. Congrats. Enjoy that cock.

Even Trump knows he is going to lose. That's the only reason to try to delay the election.
