    Trump tried to fat shame Montana Democratic senator Jon Tester. Tester responded with a campaign Y shirt "Big Sky country is big fit country" and posted a picture of himself on his farm with caption this isn't what most senators look like and he's fine with it.

    The greatest thing about the impending abolishment of Trump the politician is going to be the political suicide of the right wingers that sold their soul to Trump.

    There will be a huge amount of them too.

    Delicious.

    Trump did a big show and tell about grocery prices. A table of groceries which he surely never buys set up outside his multimillion dollar estate. Your typical family home.

    It's just wild how that one word has gotten Trump and all of MAGA so unhinged.

    I think that's the name of a superPAC now.

    Seriously, that hit them hard.

    People might not like what Hilary Clinton said about the "basket of deplorable," but I think Trump normalized and gave cover to a lot of some people's worst demons like racism, hate, selfishness and irrational fear. They found strength in numbers and Trump was proud of being the personification of all those things we've always been taught are bad but exist in all of us to varying degrees.

    Trump allowed the weakest of us to give in to gratifying those urges.

    Calling them "bullies" gave them power. However, calling them "weird" just diminishes them. It's like throwing water on the Wicked Witch of the West. It calls them out for not being scary because they use force and it makes them powerful, but for just being abnormal and socially ill-equipped.

    It's like a quick smack across the nose and it has a lot of them thinking about whether they want to stick with Trump and get the side eye wherever they go. It's played on their insecurities and they are losing their taste for being seen with the king of the weirdos.

    I just can't enjoy my health care unless I know that there's some less fortunate person who's dying because they can't get health care.

    I'm willing to be that he, and the vast majority of his base, has no idea what communism actually is, let alone socialism.
    Especially since these toe jam for brains praise Putin and Russia, yet love to accuse Biden and Kamala of being commies.

    And I can't enjoy a meal unless I know there are hungry kids whose school lunches were taken away.
