The utter and complete depravity of Donald J. Trump

So Trump skipped the ceremony to honor the dead of World War One (37 million) because of a light rain.

He then told the 150,000 Californians who had to flee their homes due to fire that he might cut off federal aid.

He did this while sitting in a hotel room watching Fox News.




Trump in a politically motivate tweet tried to score points by falsely blaming California’s forest management for fires 🔥rather than a meager 2” of rain per year and kindling shrubs. This IPhone Pic shows the massive threat looming for some who don’t need his BS.







This is what a real leader looks like.

Watching TV because that piece of shit is too fucking lazy to do even the ceremonial parts of the job.

What a humiliating disgrace.

He doesn't what respect, he wants total capitulation like a reigning monarch. He only has use for those who are fawning ass-kissers and as ignorant as he. The world is only experiencing another psychopath walking in the steps of mass murders like Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot and reaching back to Cain and Abel. It is sad fact that some people are without a conscience and will not hesitate to use their ill gotten power to destroy anyone who is not syncopate. It would have better that some had never seen the light of day they are so lack of any redeeming characteristics.

Compositionally that is an exceptional photo.... yet who am I to be thinking about the technical aspects of a photograph when the real story is the people on the road fleeing for their lives, knowing that they'll likely have nothing left to return to.

Divide people with , just like the refusal to attend the ceremony, to stir up people with it. It is what putin did in russia too. He could care less about the sacrifice made from past service members, or the people suffering from these massive wild fires burning out of control. He's trying to incite people. He doesn't care about anyone except himself, and it shows.

Fuck head has shown the limits of his consideration for the states. Especially those who don’t kiss his ass and call it ice fucking cream. I wouldn’t blame anyone for wanting to leave st this point.

Mr. President, with all due respect, you are wrong. The fires in So. Cal are urban interface fires and have NOTHING to do with forest management. Come to SoCal and learn the facts & help the victims. Scott Austin, Pres IAFF 809.

1) To make money for himself
Or 2) to keep his ass out of trouble
Look at his SC pick and his AG.
