This should be the sticking point to invoke the 25th. Officials need to be loud and make a stink about how Trump can’t tell fact from clear fiction and therefore cannot perform the duties of the office. Make the people of America see the image on the news everyday and make those on his side say out loud if they think it’s fake or real. Half of the masses will never be convinced that he lacks the morality to lead until they’re already in his camps. This is the earliest clear as day moment to act on that which cannot be held to subjective scrutiny or partisanship.
If you guys didn’t watch the interview it’s (to no one’s surprise) fucking embarrassing. Terry keeps trying to move on while remaining firm and Trump just sits there being an argumentative shit because Terry refuses to budge. Good on him for keeping his journalistic integrity, and another pile of dicks to Donnie boi to suck.
How do you do it? How do you sit through it without ripping your ears off? I cant stand listening to the guy. Even a toddler sounds more cohesive… The moment I hear his voice I feel like my brain just killed a million brain cells out of protest.
Trump is delusional. He also said in the interview that tourism has gone up and that the world’s respect fir America has improved
These ones are real, though:
They are, he is an extremist Christian. These are all used as dog whistles by Neo Nazi.

“Ne desit virtus” is the slogan of the 187 infantry regiment of the 101st Airborne Division. It means “Let Valor Not Fail”. That image above that slogan is the unit patch.
We infantry dudes usually have tattoos like this, nothing “Nazi” or “Fascist” about it.
However, as an enlisted grunt, the infantry officers, like Major Hegseth, are a different breed.
Cool. Now explain “deus vult” and the Jerusalem Cross in the context of their modern usage in North America.
I’m not trying to defend the guy at all but those tattoos are not exclusively used by neo-nazis whatsoever and come from the Christian crusades originally. It’s the Jerusalem cross.
I will also say that that drusen cross has been used in some Neo-Nazi symbolism along the way so it’s not really a get out of jail free card either.
Republicans are fucking pathetic.
Republicans no longer exist. It is the MAGA party, and it has very little in common with the Traditional GOP.
And all MAGAs are Traitors.
While I agree maga is end stage facism the GOP has been selling out the working class, escalating racism, pushing sexism, attacking unions, attacking civil rights, destroying worker protections, stealing elections, gerrymandering, bowing to corporate interests, destroying the social safety net , starting illegal wars and cutting taxes for the uber wealthy since Reagan. All these failed republican policies account for the entire national debt and then some when added up.

I really wish some of these reporters would dig in and challenge him. I get that its uncomfortable, but that’s your job.
His questions should have been:
- Do you think he has MS13, marijuana, smile, cross, skull tattooed on his hands? And not added with Photoshop later?
- Are you saying this combination of tattoos is a code to identify him as a member of MS13? Because gang experts have cast doubt on this interpretation.
- How many other MS13 members have this exact combination of tattoos on his hand? If its a sign of being a member of the gang, others should have it as well.
- Do you think a vague and symbolic tattoo is proof of belonging to criminal organization?
- Does this make your Secretary of Defense a white supremacist? Because he has numerous tattoos associated with that ideology.
- Do you have any real proof Abrego Garcia is a member of MS-13? And if so why did your administration appeal his protected status in 2019?
Fully agree, however, the press has done that before and he just shuts down the question with some remark about the reporter and if they press, he walks out. Aside from physical restraint, I don’t think we will see him submit to any real questioning.
Then do it. Grill him until he walks out. Over and over. But they won’t.
I am really sick of the “mainstream media,” which is supposed to be so liberal. What passes for “journalism” these days is appalling.
When the El Salvador dictator met with HitlerPig in the Oval Office, Pam Bondi said that a plane could be sent for Garcia, but it they couldnt do it because they had no control over the landing in El Salvador. Then Trump said it wasnt up to us , it was up to El Salvador, and we couldnt control that. The the El Salvador dictator said that he couldn’t “smuggle” Garcia back to America, and he had nonl right to speak for another nation, and that it was a preposterous question.
And that was the end of it. Not one “journalist” stepped up with indignation, and said “Lets end this charade! Literally EVERY, SINGLE PERSON in the entire world that is required to make this decision is in this room right now. Nobody has to say, ‘Sounds good, let me run it past the bosses and get back to you.’ The people required to make this happen on both sides are literally sitting right next to each other. Why can’t you look at each other and agree to make it happen?” And then pushed them to cut a deal, or not, in front of the entire world.
The reporter who would have done that would have become the most famous journalist in the world at that moment. It would have totally changed the trajectory of their career, but not one of them did it. They seem to think that their job is to provide a platform for the MAGA Nazis to spew their propaganda, unchallenged.
And perhaps that is exactly their jobs, as demanded by their owners, who are Sociopathic Oligarchs and Corporations who have donated to HitlerPig’s Inauguration fund.
