There's too much of that jackass back on DU.

It sure was nice a couple months ago when there wasn't one mention of "it" on DU.
I took a screenshot (have it somewhere).

But now we're back to his ugly face and name plastered in every corner of DU.

Thank you. I finally figured out who it was from context, but it was annoying to not get the words filled in.

I know his supporters are still among us, but I’m 90% sure he’s gone. But we must remain vigilant.

If you look in "My Account" you'll see the tab for "Trash Can" where you can automatically block threads with title containing a keyword, in this case "T____".

Jack use to be a member here. He passed and may be rolling in his grave for his name being used that way. It started as a hate filled group by Manny and Miriam. They were all banned BS supporters. Called Hill the C word and hated Dems.

Lots more....it became a Russian troll farm.

He was arrested and held as a flight risk the other day, and now this charge has been added....

Another one of his conspirators is now talking to the feds.

Bring it on!

I had to run out to the airport, and there was a trio of people on the side of the highway holding signs, TFG flags, and a giant printed picture of his ugly mug. Not sure what their point was other than "Welcome to Texas, we're f*cking crazy!"

So, not just online, but in meatspace too.

it matters. It’s always the same anyway. We heard it all 100k times over.

I do care about any news that has to do with an indictment, but that’s a ways off if ever.

Not hearing about him brought a special kind of peace.

they show Biden they have to show that Orange F-ing head.
Look there's Joe walking then it TFG look Joe's talking then
they show that TFG over and over, it's really not fair to Biden
Makes me wonder how many anchors and such voted for TFG.
We put up with his doing $hit for 4 years, what now we got to
put up with 4 years of the $hit he did. Yeah he don't have
his tweet, but the news keep putting his F=ing face on the
screen every F-ing Day. Enough already !!!!!!!!

You kill a snake, but keep watching it for signs of life. You can never be absolutely sure . . .

So too TFG.

TFG is still squirming a bit. We need to kill it some more!

But yeah, visuals of TFG need to kept to an absolute minimum.

(Disclaimer: 'Kill' here is used in a abstract or metaphorical sense. As in . . . to render permanently harmless, insignificant, inconsequential, and no longer a threat to all we value.)

to be moved to a separate forum. Sort of like the way it's done during primary season for candidates. I don't want to hear about his thoughts on anything. He's a criminal who belongs in prison.
