Memo to Trump Ass-Kissers

He's never going to pay you for your legal services, or any other service you render on his behalf.

He will throw you under the bus the minute you are no longer of any use to him.

He will do everything in his (rapidly diminishing) power to destroy your political aspirations/career if he perceives any statement you've ever made to be detrimental to his political aspirations/career.

He will remind you at every turn that you "owe him" your loyalty, but he owes you nothing.

No matter how close you've been to him, he will insist that he "doesn't know you" as soon as you are seen as a political and/or personal liability.

He will continue to surround himself with ass-kissers, and if you don't attach your lips to his rear-end fast enough, he'll throw you under that ever-enlarging bus.

The fact that any of this needs to be pointed out to you speaks for itself - and speaks volumes about just how willing you are to pucker up.

is the chief ass-kissers who want to run for president in 2024 but have to wait until their lord god decides to not run - and he's going to keep that grift going as long as he can.

At some point, DeathSentence, Cruz, Hawley, Rubio, et al, are going to have to announce a primary run. Then Dotard will turn on them viciously. I've read somewhere he's already turning on our murdering Ronnie because everyone knows he's going to run.

Go ahead, donald! Trash your fellow GOPers! FINE by me! It merely means you’re doing more of the heavy lifting, to take out more of the garbage.

But if he hints he is just drifting to pocket the dollars the SUCKERS send him.

No overwatch from the FEC until he is officially running. Is my understanding.

You need to give to him like your would give to a tv preacher.

He likes uneducated people.

Only he can fix everything.

Trump is definitely taking a page out of Hitler's playbook ob this one. And you wonder how everyday people fell for the Nazis.

They worship Trump because he is Trump. Their own lives are worthless next to his.
If Trump destroys their lives and kills their family it's still worth it because they are sacrificing everything for Trump.

It's an unwashed brainwashed cult mindset and it's nearly impossible to escape once you are trapped in it.

different, or what to do, or literally anything else, they get all huffy and mad and go stalking off.

And they're doing exactly themselves what they get so mad and huffy about w/ trump, hanging onto his every word, kissing his big behind, etc. Hypocrites.

Pathetic, aren't they?

In this case, the choir is at the bar plotting a deadly coup while the you preach to the rest of us in the pews.

Voting these people out is our only hope because there are way more democrats in the pews than there are republicans in the choir, but we don't vote. Republicans learn at a young age that if only the dog catcher job is open, they get in there and vote for the republican dog catcher. democrats will shrug their shoulders and stay home because it doesn't matter who the dog catcher is.
