Are you kidding me?????
Trump is delusional! His mental illness is progressing. He is an increasing danger to this country and in fact the world. He should be impeached ASAP but instead, he is being enabled and encouraged by Rs that control both houses in Congress.

But it was instructive in one way: It made clear the president elected to lead the party of states’ rights has very little regard for states’ rights.
Indeed, he almost seems to disdain them.
++++++++++++==
No kidding!
He ran on draining the swamp but he filled up a much, MUCH bigger swamp with incompetent, Trump worshiping creatures to do his bidding.
He was supposed to REDUCE the federal government. Instead, he's been all about federal government/Trump power grabs.
He was supposed to reduce government spending to reduce the deficit. His Big NOT Beautiful Bill does the opposite.
He was supposed to be about states having more control and the Federal government less but in practice, it's been the opposite. He took control of the state of California to stupidly send in the National Guard against their objection.
He's decimating the global free markets with his absurd, damaging tariffs, applied without rhyme or reason. Punishing Brazil with high tariffs because they are not treating his political, far right friend well. Threatening to put tariffs on countrys that trade with Russia......that punish US companies and US consumers that are the ones paying the tariffs.
Deranged President Trump has decided that mail in voting was cheating by Ds and why he lost in 2020, so now that he's president again (thanks to mail in voting in 2024) he is trying to ban mail in voting that supposedly cost him the 2020 election with him focused on revenge on his enemies and revenge on anything that he thinks harmed him in the past.
I am dead serious when I say that this pathological mentality could result in a nuclear war with Russia if he gets it in his head that its Putins fault that he didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize or that Putin embarrassed him on the world stage(again).
Great way to try to get to heaven
Watching Fox this evening.
They applaud and cheerlead for Trump's worst policies. Actions and words that as portrayed as being brilliant that in reality are catastrophically bad using authentic, objective eyes and reality based, apolitical facts.
Trump watches Fox much of the time, which is how he knew which ones to appoint to almost 2 dozen key positions.
He uses Fox's propaganda as positive reinforcement to continue down a corrupt, ruinous, self enrichment driven path that violates basic standards of responsible leadership. Violates our Constitution, democracy and betrays his vows to the American people.
When I type this stuff or think about it, these realities seem so surreal. Fox News in the evening is like watching science fiction the way they twist everything like a pretzel to maintain their block busters ratings from MAGA tuning in the hear things that they wish were true every year.
On Jesse Watters tonight, I just heard that all the other stations are saying different things than they report because all those stations care about is ratings. Hugh???
How is it possible that the United States has a president saying these insane things and acting this way, almost with impunity? The #1 rated news show in the evenings just a high priest for Trump religion?
And getting worse and worse.
Where will this end up?
++++++++++++++++
Predator Trump's NEW swamp continues to be much "swampier" and much less competent than the old swamp as he seeks revenge on people that disagree with him or that he thinks may have harmed him in the past and tries to silence/censor information that doesn't line up with the narratives to support him............including, looking to remove mail in voting that his delusional mind thinks was used by Ds to cheat and steal the 2020 election from him.
Predator Trump is a very dangerous man right now.
The completely unjustified search of John Bolton's house, weaponizing the FBI against him for being on CNN as a source for his analysis that didn't repeat the right pro Trump narratives (and has been a vocal Trump critic) is an extremely egregious violation/abuse of Predator Trump's power.

Trump contends the numbers were "rigged" to make him look bad.
The president’s second term has been marked by his eagerness to go after his foes and his assertions of presidential authority. Both traits are on display as he seeks control over the central bank.

The entire reason that the Fed has not lowered interest rates like Predator Trump has commanded is BECAUSE OF TRUMP'S ruinous tariffs schemes which are causing and will cause inflationary, upward price pressure on the US economy based on the principles of global and domestic economics and math that Donald Trump is completely unable to comprehend. The Fed and other knowledgeable/responsible leaders DO understand and are acting accordingly, despite attempts by Trump do undermine them.

think you better pull back on your critcisim of the Bolton search. You may not know but this is identical to the Clinton foundation mess. Except there were 3 seperate investigations into that but all three were stopped by the corrupt Biden adm. This Bolton thing was started and strangely just like the Clinton case, was suddenly stopped under Biden.
Thanks, mcfarm!
You provide authentic evidence of that, NOT Fox News rhetoric and I will cheerfully adjust my position with a huge thank you to boot.
Regardless, these are many of the authentic facts on August 22, 2025.
https://time.com/7311634/john-bolton-raid-ambassador-trump/
The precise focus of the Bolton investigation remains unclear, though it is believed to concern a potential mishandling or retention of national security information. Trump had previously threatened to jail Bolton over his 2020 memoir, The Room Where It Happened, which depicted Trump as uninformed on foreign policy and driven primarily by personal political gain.
On his first day back in the Oval Office in January, Trump revoked security clearances from more than four dozen former intelligence officials(all of them as personal retribution from Trump-metmike), including Bolton. Trump also canceled Bolton’s Secret Service protection, despite the fact that the Justice Department had said he was the target of an alleged murder-for-hire scheme by a member of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.
Speaking to reporters later in the day, Trump insisted that he didn’t know about the raid but expected to be briefed on it by the Justice Department. “I could know about it. I could be the one starting it. I’m actually the chief law enforcement officer. But I feel that it’s better this way,” Trump said.
++++++++++=
Extremely unstable and dangerous person because he's the most powerful man on the planet. His pathological, impulsive and delusional thinking makes him extremely unpredictable. He feels that he can abuse his tremendous power with impunity to impose anything he wants for self serving objectives!
That is an indisputable fact rooted in all the evidence besides being my opinion.
are you that one sided you will type the words "biden doj pulls Bolton investigation" into your computer? Really? Damn TDS must be a bitch and 1/2.
Thanks very much for your opinion, mcfarm!
These so-called “new” things (Bolton, Russia-gate, mail-in) are very likely just diversions to take away attention from Epstein-gate.
Ask yourself “why now?”
And by the way, Trump used to use mail-in!!
This really is The Twilight Zone of politics.

Previous threads related to classified documents. Nobody is going to read all this stuff, so why do I post it?
1. In case people Do want the background and all the relevant information, it's right there.
2. I DO actually read much of it to access previous discussions that can be used for citations and many sources of rock solid evidence that I don't need to do the research all over again that, in some very long discussions with numerous threads to me many hours to accumulate. Now, it's all there below on this 1 page/post.
3. To refresh my memory about what was important in previous discussions and also appreciate my own thoughts that were wrong at the time and why. And also, what has been proven right and wrong since then.
4. I counted 15 threads below with hundreds of posts. It took me many dozens of hours of research to post the stuff in them the first time. It took me more like 40 minutes to review most of it and copy the posts below that will be my "go to" page to quickly get that old information in a flash to use with this new discussion. Even if this new discussion goes nowhere, while compiling this list, I was reminded of a dozen different things related to this topic that I completely forgot about.

These so-called “new” things (Bolton, Russia-gate, mail-in) are very likely just diversions to take away attention from Epstein-gate.
Ask yourself “why now?”
***Because Trump doesn't wait. As soon as something comes up he acts. It's like he knows he will not be here forever.
His 1st term wasted, now not wasting any time for anything.
Thanks, cutworm!
Trump sure has wasted tons of time releasing the Epstein files that were promised to us.
When he has so much unchallenged power (by Congress that has ceded their power to him) why wouldn't he impose his agenda, including absurd policies with impunity?
This seems to be more about his pathological belief that the Ds stole the election from him with mail in voting in 2020 (even though mail in voting won him the election in 2024) and he wants to stop the process that he thinks caused his loss.
Just the fact that he goes on and on and on and on and on and on about how the Ds stole the election from him in 2020, no matter where he is or who he's having a conversation with tells us how disturbed his thinking is. Mental illness, I tell ya. And it's getting worse with time.
Giving the most powerful man in the world, with pathological thinking even more power(and already blatantly abusing what the Constitution gave him) is putting us at great risk for escalating, negative consequences.
With regards to Russia-gate. Here's the biggest problem. Trump is doing so many bogus, authoritarian/fascist things, including telling thousands of easy to verify lies and politically weaponizing his power to take down enemies that he has no credibility outside of MAGA.
Russia-gate as I documented while it was happening here with many hundreds of posts, really did happen as the Trump people are showing right now. Almost exactly! Hard to believe but it did.
But this is like a blind squirrel finding an acorn.

Politically Unstable: Americans deserve accountability for ‘Russiagate’ lies
+++++++++++++++
Regardless of how this turns out, people on both sides have long, long ago decided what to believe and no matter what Trump's people show, it's not going to change that. Instead it will just waste time on something that is not going to accomplish anything positive and instead create additional division and LESS support for Trump by people outside of MAGA. Trump is obsessed with retribution, so this is destined to be a focus for the rest of his term.
On Bolton.
OF COURSE this is political!
However, we don't know what the evidence was that got a court to authorize this search in 2 different locals. So commenting specifically is premature.
Trump claiming that he didn't know anything about this and then going on about how he was harmed by a similar search of Mar a Lago and telling us about why he thinks Bolton is such a dirt bag and deserves it doesn't make sense. They would have absolutely briefed him on this, so telling lies discredits this even more.
We know its political between Trump and Bolton because he revoked Bolton's security clearance on day 1 and took away his Secret Service protection at the same time in retribution for Bolton speaking out against Trump (including revealing who Trump really is in Bolton's book). He has made dozens of comments about his bad opinion of Bolton.
And we are supposed to think that this search evolved independent of that and from a justice/FBI with hand picked, Trump loyalists that projects Trumpism all day long???
No way, man!
Let's see what they supposedly have before commenting more.
Larry what will you guys think when you see the search warrant? your brain will explode when you see words like trading cash for national security....but just knowing that Bolten was just following the Obama.biden model should ease your pain. Hell in the Biden family that has biden common practice for over 50 damn years
++++++++++++++
Trump will always have Fox and MAGA but he is eroding his support from more and more people and sources that once supported him, including me by his erratic, unprofessional, dangerous abuse of power and some really, REALLY bad decisions, like his tariffs that are destroying long lived trading relationships with our trading partners.
No, mcfarm everybody that has this opinion isn't TDS. I voted for Trump last November and have defended him with more authentic facts/posts, when he deserved to be defended than everybody else here combined.
Even if Trump ends the war in Ukraine (which is extremely unlikely because Putin won the war and NATO/Ukraine are living a delusional dream, insisting Russia give it back and Ukraine get into NATO-which will NEVER happen), the reason I voted for him, I regret the vote but heck, the election wasn't decided by my vote
In fact, what happened the past week with Trump meeting with Putin, then NATO/Ukraine, in retrospect seems to likely just have been another Trump political stunt to elevate himself(bragging last Monday all meeting long about ending all 6 wars, except for the one in Ukraine which is another fictional Trump world) .
I believe now that Trump just staged all of this to increase his chances to get the Nobel Peace Prize that he doesn't deserve. If he ended the war in Ukraine.........then he deserves it. If he ended the war in Gaza(that he is making worse) then he deserves it.
