    “The restaurants now are booming. People are going out to dinner where they didn’t go out for years, and it’s a safe city,” he told reporters just outside the restaurant. “We have a capital that’s very, very safe right now.”

    Fucking bald-faced liars.

    And my heartfelt thanks to the protesters.

      I fucking live here. Crime is extremely low where he is. The whole thing was a show from the beginning. “Democrat cities have crime and chaos, so i cleaned them up” is a talking point that he’s spending hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars on, just to make himself feel special.

        just to make himself feel special.

        Oh there’s so much more behind it. The extra force is in place now. Preparing for the next election. The next Jan 6. As both his cousin and his ghost writer said almost a decade ago: he will not go willingly.

        Guy is a scaredy cat, he decamped to bunker in 2020 because of blm protesters marching.

        Then ordered military to shoot them, was rebuffed, ordered to just shoot them a little, was rebuffed. Military agreed to tear gas and some violence to defy their rights to protest.

        No one will rebuff him long today. They all think the republic is already dead.

      I’m old enough to remember how butthurt the cons and Huckabee were over being denied a cheese plate.

      Yes, I hope Taco gets the finger - metaphorically and literally - any time he sets foot in public without having a “vetted” audience.

        He is directly emulating hitler, acheiving more of a mussolini. Fuck what his supporters think or how they respond.

      Hes way to much like him to not have the comparison made. Sure as far as we know hitler was not a pedo so trump is way worse. I was watching a vidoe about the richest men in history and there was all this stuff I was unaware of with hitler where he copyrighted his speaches and image and then had germany pay him for stamps and posting his speeches. It was like wow. I thought trump was like hitler but its more like hitler is like trump.

      Most molesters don’t molest children because they are pedophiles. That’s a fucking cartoon grasp of reality.

    Being compared to Hitler is not going to disturb him that much, I feel. He loves it.

    Which means, add to your repertorie! Like, you can call him “Mr. Krasnov” as well.

        A shame if he doesn’t (you can always add “Asset Krasnov” for clarity) but then again we don’t expect much mental acumen from his ilk don’t we?

        Just add more stuff to the repertoire.

      i do recall someone calling him a pedophile but theres probably more evidence against trumps case.

        Theres a lot of pictures of Hitler around children and he did a lot of programs with them but I feel like if he was a pedo it would’ve come out after the war, no fucking way the Soviets wouldn’t have shouted it from the rooftops.

    LOL, watching Hegseth in that video with the eyes darting everywhere. Almost like he expects there to be a book depository nearby, with a window sliding open…
