(13,453 posts)I think the breaking point to me -- the thing that turned me into a sobbing puddle -- was the felon's treatment of Zelensky in the Oval and the withdrawal of support for Ukraine.
For me, that was the point at which more than 80.years of an alliance that embraced and was committed to protecting the values that have driven every decent thing the U.S. has accomplished was abandoned by the abomination occupying the White House.
The insanity of propping up Orban and Putin add insult to that horrific injury.

from Americans and give those benefits which come from American taxpayers to Orban because the
Economic Might of America comes from Americans not you Donny.
Watch Trump try to walk this back with in 24 hours. His people have to be scrambling to put lipstick on
on this pig of an idea.
Christ on a cracker Donny is fucking nuts.
