Trump sums up his supporters perfectly.......

"I hang out with losers because it makes be feel better," said Trump. "I hate guys that are very, very successful and you have to listen to their success stories. I like people that like to listen to my success."

Look at how much of project 2025 he’s implemented simply through brute force. If he can accomplish evil things so successfully, I have zero idea why the Dems with very aggressively bold agendas are so marginalized.

Sadly, he sometimes has a way of speaking truth that is genuinely kind of funny and even charming because it's genuinely true, not only about himself, also to at least some small degree about most of us – don't we all feel a little bit better when our social media persona holds up when compared to those of others? Most of us have that aspect of an "inner child"; but Trump IS his inner child – a very insecure, self-centered, greedy, vengeful one.

I just wish he would do it in the privacy of his bathroom and spare the rest of us, LOL. That 5 minute ramble about $1,000 pens that don't work and $5 Sharpies which do in the cabinet meeting on Thursday was really something.
