1. I hope his up all night worrying

And making everyone around him miserable. And also that he continues to make stupid mistakes.

[Rhiannon12866]

2. I think we can count on the stupid mistakes, he has no regard for the law, thinks he's above it

And calling for his testimony would be even worse for him since he has no regard for the truth, either...

7. I hope his up all night worrying AND EATING. I hope he gains 150 pounds !!!!!

I hope he gains 150 pounds !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds in 5 days !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds in 5 days !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds in 45 minutes .... ha ha ha !!!!!

I hope he gains 150 pounds in 45 minutes .... ha ha ha !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds in 45 minutes .... ha ha ha !!!!! I hope he gains 150 pounds in 45 minutes .... ha ha ha !!!!!

3. Let the fat man fester on his guilded toilet

4. how about we make it a rule

if you try to overthrow the government you CANNOT run for office anymore

[Rhiannon12866]

6. Amazing that our Founding Fathers didn't put that in The Constitution!

Sounds like a really necessary provision to me - but then they didn't imagine TFG. None of us did.

[Rhiannon12866]

8. The more I think about it, this really is the post of the day

He keeps threatening to "announce" that he's running again - even though he never stopped campaigning for five years! How is this allowed when he's under investigation in numerous states and at the federal level for trying to overthrow the government he now wants to lead???

[Skittles]

9. he never conceded a legitimate election

that should invalidate him too

[Rhiannon12866]

10. Yes, it certainly should - not to mention that he's still at it!

And from what we're head in recent testimony, he was told from the beginning that he lost badly and it was over, yet he wasted time and money all over the country challenging the results in numerous states, threatened state officials who refused to do his bidding and is still on the loose, holding rallies to convince the deluded.

And he's also a petty little man, dismissed the White House staff so that the duly elected president of the United States was unable to enter the White House. I often think of previous transitions, where all outgoing presidents attended the swearing in of their successors. And I still remember the welcome that the Bush girls gave to the Obama girls:

11. I never really had a problem with the Bush girls

whenever they made the news it always seemed like normal teen stuff, and they grew up to be lovely ladies despite their POS dad

[Rhiannon12866]

12. You're right, they have both turned out well - and they showed the younger girls around

That was a very kind thing to do. But I remember that back in the day I was given a hard time here for saying something nice about Laura.

[Skittles]

13. Laura was OK, a bit boring

but I remember one incident when a reporter asked her to comment on something Michelle Obama had said that came out awkwardly, insinuating Michelle was anti-America and Laura shot him down saying, no, the Obamas love their country, she refused to play that game

[Rhiannon12866]

14. Yup, same as John McCain when that elderly woman tried to get him to say Obama was anti-American

[Skittles]

15. those are character-defining moments

when decency wins

5. he is a 2 leg'd hazardous waste dump !
