... Trump has "made his contempt for Wisconsinites and their home clear," said spokesperson Addy Toevs of the Democratic National Committee, which is behind the new signs.
"The dislike is mutual," she added. "In 2020, Wisconsin handed Trump a one way ticket back to exile in Mar-a-Lago and sent President Biden to the Oval Office. In November, they'll do it again."...
... “My daddy always believed in me. ‘That’s my Betsy,’ he’d say. I wouldn’t be where I am now if he hadn’t pushed open a door for me. I’m thinking of him today, and I’m wishing a happy Father’s Day to all the fathers and father figures out there fighting for their kids,” U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote.
“Happy Father’s Day to everyone! ‘Of all the titles that I’ve been privileged to have, the title of ‘Dad’ has always been the best,'” U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson wrote, quoting 1978 World Heavyweight Boxing Champion Ken Norton.
“Happy Father’s Day! The most fulfilling job I’ve ever had is being Sasha and Malia’s dad. To all those lucky enough to take on the role of being a father, I hope you enjoy your day,” former U.S. President Barack Obama wrote.
Nice.
... President Joe Biden started the day using his social media accounts to share what might reasonably be called a standard Father’s Day greeting, offering well wishing on behalf of his family to dads across the country.
“Today and every day, we celebrate the fathers and father figures in our lives who guide us with support and inspire us to be our best selves,” the 46th President wrote on the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
“Happy Father’s Day to all the dads, pops, and father figures who have shown us guidance, encouragement, and unconditional love,” he said via his Facebook page.
White House social media accounts declared that “the Biden-Harris Administration wishes a happy Father’s Day to all the dads who work tirelessly to build a better future for our families. Your dedication and strength inspire us all!”
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO ALL, INCLUDING THE RADICAL LEFT DEGENERATES THAT ARE RAPIDLY BRINGING THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA INTO THIRD WORLD NATION STATUS WITH THEIR MANY ATTEMPTS AT TRYING TO INFLUENCE OUR SACRED COURT SYSTEM INTO BREAKING TO THEIR VERY SICK AND DANGEROUS WILL. WE NEED STRENGTH AND LOYALTY TO OUR COUNTRY, AND ITS WONDERFUL CONSTITUTION. EVERYTHING WILL BE ON FULL DISPLAY COME NOVEMBER 5TH, 2024 - THE MOST IMPORTANT DAY IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
He always has the worst holiday greetings of anyone I know
My god, this guy is insane. donald trump can never step foot in the White House again.
Ellen Barkin
This crazy bitch needs to be dragged from the stage and thrown in a padded cell. END OF STORY. PERIOD.
Not to brag, but Trump just wished my husband Happy Father’s Day! I love you, my radical left degenerate
Trump’s willing to treat his fellow Americans like mortal enemies. He’s the most divisive character in American history. He’s an effective vehicle for Putin’s aim of destroying the nation. He’s dividing and conquering us and his followers have no idea they live inside a giant lie
What a beautiful, touchin' Father's Day message!
Most people just wish dads a happy fathers' day. Just sayin.
Grievances and more grievances. Pathetic
This feels like a broken record but how can any person conceivably believe that a man who speaks like this should be President?
Just cannot comprehend it. Maybe people have actually gone insane.
More like a "Godfather's Day" message.
HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL, INCLUDING ALL PETTY, DICKISH, WANNABE DICTATORS WHO CARE ABOUT ABSOLUTELY NOTHING BUT THEMSELVES AND CAN'T BE A DECENT HUMAN BEING FOR ONE SOLITARY MOMENT TO EXPRESS A POSITIVE, UPLIFTING MESSAGE!!!
Let's say you like Trumpian ummm, "policies" and you like the idea of rounding up brown people and sending them somewhere. You like big sweeping tariffs on furrin junque, and you like his aggressive America First attitude. Even if you like those things, it seems it would be hard to support a guy who can't keep on any topic, focuses primarily on revenge themes, and can't even be decent in sending out generic holiday greetings without spouting insults. And Hillary got pilloried for a mild "basket of deplorables" comment.

... Allen Frances, professor emeritus of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Duke University Medical College, told the newspaper that he wrote the criteria for narcissistic personality disorder ― and Trump doesn’t meet it.
“He may be a world-class narcissist, but this doesn’t make him mentally ill, because he does not suffer from the distress and impairment required to diagnose mental disorder,” he wrote.
He added:
“Mr. Trump causes severe distress rather than experiencing it and has been richly rewarded, rather than punished, for his grandiosity, self-absorption and lack of empathy. It is a stigmatizing insult to the mentally ill (who are mostly well behaved and well meaning) to be lumped with Mr. Trump (who is neither).”
Frances called on others in the industry to stop “psychiatric name-calling” and instead denounce Trump “for his ignorance, incompetence, impulsivity and pursuit of dictatorial powers.”
U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore (D-Wis.) had a damning response to Donald Trump reportedly calling Milwaukee a “horrible city” just weeks before the Republican National Convention begins there July 15.
Moore, whose congressional district includes most of the city, on Thursday told MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell that the presumptive GOP presidential nominee’s comment was pure projection.
Trump himself is “a horrible person,” she said, noting that he was recently convicted on dozens of felony charges in his hush money trial.
“It’s not just these 34 felony counts, but he’s a sexual assaulter and there are 54 more counts out against him for really trying to undermine our elections and … inspiring an insurrection,” Moore said, referencing the remaining charges in Trump’s upcoming criminal trials and apparently citing the civil verdict in his sexual abuse trial. “So, he’s a horrible person.”
Some Trump apologists have suggested that he was referring to the city’s crime rate with his slur, despite a sharp decrease in homicides there recently.
“There you go. That’s right,” agreed O’Donnell.
“They had to find a city where Donald Trump wasn’t facing indictments, so Milwaukee was on the list,” he jokingly added....
... But Trump’s recent gripe with environmental advocates may have started with misinformation: a Greta Thunberg deepfake that went viral last fall, in which the manipulated image and voice of the youth environmental activist called for “biodegradable missiles,” “vegan grenades,” and “sustainable tanks and weaponry.”
... Trump has taken to arguing that cognitive exams should be mandatory for higher office since special counsel Robert Hur issued a damning, 388-page analysis of Biden’s mental acuity, in which he described the 81-year-old president as having “significant limitations.”
In the years since he “aced” the exam, Trump has invariably tweaked the questions he allegedly received on the test, at times boasting that he had correctly recited five words and performed basic multiplication, while at other times insisting that he passed thanks to correctly identifying a whale. That is, in spite of the fact that the test’s authors claim that none of the three versions in circulation actually have a whale on them.
It doesn't matter if they play the "N-Word" tape on all media. Does anyone really think that if Trump responded to a question about his Black support with something like "It's great - all the niggers love me..." that it would cost him any votes? He is who he is, and is so thoroughly despicable that there's nothing shocking anymore. It's turned so far upside down that it seems that his cultists will applaud anything, just because he did it. Dems need to focus on strengthening their own support and, getting out their own vote and hauling in as many unaffiliateds as possible by convincing they're a better choice. Everybody knows who Trump is, and if they've stuck with him so far, they're really not going to vote against him even if he does shoot somebody with his illegally possessed gun.
Kinda disagree, video or audio tape is damming and has shock value in a way that someone writing or talking about doesn't.
Will it change minds? Nah.
But it may inspire the apathetic voters a little more.
Sure, at one time I would have thought that, but I now believe the cultists don't care and everybody is is just numb - "meh, another day, another Trumpatrocity."
... Setoodeh also confirmed that Trump was “meandering and confusing” during interviews, and did not remember being interviewed by Setoodeh previously despite their multiple conversations.
“He goes from one story to the next. He struggles with the chronology of events. He seems very upset that he wasn’t respected by certain celebrities in the White House. And then he’d go to a story about ‘The Apprentice,’” he said, adding that these issues make it “very challenging” to interview the former president....
I don't doubt Donny is losing it, but I don't know that anecdotes like these make a very strong point for someone who has always lied and lied so much he can't keep track of his lies and just makes stuff up as he goes along. So he says Joan Rivers voted for him - is that really a mind slip or just his usual bullshit? I'd like to see more made of serious evidence and less made of every little word he fumbles.

I would hope that the sheer weight of examples of Dolt .45's cognitive decline would have an effect over time, but you may be correct. At least they chased Supsalemgr away
Donald Trump’s latest attempt to mock President Joe Biden over his cognitive abilities lost its sting on Tuesday when he got a key term wrong at a time when new questions are being raised about his own brainpower.
Trump pointed to a video circulating in right-wing media of Biden seeming to wander off during a G7 meeting as evidence the president is “humiliating” the nation.
In reality, Biden was talking to a skydiver who had just landed near the group of leaders as part of a ceremony ― but the video was deceptively edited so that viewers don’t see the skydiver.
Opps, TRE45QN is so very gullible.
That and similar videos have been dismissed as “cheap fakes” by the White House and others, as they use quick and basic editing rather than AI “deep fake” technology.
But Trump got the term wrong.
“Crooked Joe and his handlers are insisting he’s sharper than ever, and they say the videos of Crooked Joe shuffling around are clean fakes,” Trump said. “You know what a clean fake is? They’re deceptively edited, they say they’re deceptively edited, all of the mistakes that he’s made, every day.”
Former President Donald Trump has claimed Pope Francis was "freaking out" when he met President Joe Biden on Friday.
Video showed Francis greeting Biden and other world leaders warmly on the sidelines of the Group of Seven summit in Italy. The pope could be seen smiling as Biden bent down to speak to him, with their foreheads touching at one point.
But Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, took to social media to suggest that Francis was not comfortable with Biden getting so close to him.
"Look at the Pope—He's freaking out! This can't be normal, can it?" Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform, alongside of a photo of the two men with their foreheads close together....
Pitiful.
