Hey, if you believe this crap, I've got a bridge to sell you. Or, even better, how about some swamp land in Louisiana or Florida?

Fortunately I've never identified as one of "his people" so my poor posture (taking a knee) when he speaks can remain intact.

Correct

A Judge usually upholds the law and tells the truth.

Trump is the opposite.

As things progress in the Russian investigations, North Korea might be the only place Trump could find refuge.

President Trump said on Friday that he wants "his people" to listen to him like North Koreans listen to their leader, Kim Jong Un.

"He’s the head of a country. And I mean, he is the strong head," Trump said of Kim on "Fox & Friends." "Don’t let anyone think anything different. He speaks and his people sit up at attention. I want my people to do the same."
I also heard he requires everyone under the ago of 50 to have an erection at all times when Trump is present!

REALLY!! That's what I HEARD!!

It's sickening to think we're all supposed to guffaw along with you, when you have no concept of the actual issue.
Sorry, if you don't have a sense of humor and I have to explain the joke to you, it still won't work on you. Though I guess part of what makes it funny is the knowledge that the predictable TDS folks like you will screech that Drumpfcheetonazi wants to be a dictator for the 19537th time in the last 18 months - despite that MOST of his acts have actually ROLLED BACK the executive branch's power grabs of the previous administration!

Isn't the lack of a sense of humor so sad?
Yep, I'm not kidding when I say people are born without it. Some people simply don't have it. Not sure anything can be done except be entertained at their hysteria and confusion.

Straight up legitimate question. What the hell kind of drugs are you on that you believe that, and where can I get some, because that is some serious mind altering stuff.

It wasn’t a joke. Unfortunately what we have here is a child who craves attention and wants millions of adoring fans screaming his name. He’s a freaking reality tv show personality for goodness sakes.

And frankly, hearing the President say such things is appalling and completely inappropriate. Sadly he has a track record for saying stupid things and at this point, no one should be surprised by his childish behavior.
