Given that Trump lies reflexively, and generally to conceal his crimes, tis should come as no surprise.
There are many posts here that employ profanity.
And I see this as a reflection of anger, and passion. Plus, DU is a safe space.
But in the real world, how many here use obscenities regularly in conversation?
A personal story follows.
One day, I was moving landscaping timbers and dropped one on my left hand. (My nail on the little finger soon turned black.)
My young daughters were "helping" me and witnessed the drop.
My wife, who does use profane language at times, asked my daughters if I swore when it happened. They said I did not.
Finally, I make no judgement about those who do use them. It is not really a big deal either way.
Atheists prefer cats, Christians love dogs, study shows.
From the article:
Those who claim no religious identity are most likely to have a cat.

We are owned by a cat at this time, but we have hosted dogs, birds, fish, rabbits, and mice.

If John Bolton is truly willing to testify,
Adam Schiff should convene another inquiry and invite Bolton to testify.
We all know that Trump is guilty, and any fair trial would only prove it, which explains why Trump and McConnell are so determined to have a Russian style show trial.
So extend that invitation to John Bolton.
My wife and I were talking about New Year resolutions yesterday.
She asked if I had made any.
I said that after a lot of thought about it, my resolution was that she should treat me with more respect.
The doctor says I should be walking soon, but he suggested that I take care when walking in the future.
My new resolution is to never suggest how my wife could improve herself.
Never.
Imagine that the Traveling Wilburys had been together longer.
This is one of my favorites of what I consider to be arguably the best rock supergroup.
There seemed to be no ego on display, only mutual respect.

Score: Trump 1. Obama 0. So much winning.
Remember, Trump has beaten President Obama in the category of number of times a President has been impeached. And President Obama can never take that away from Trump.
So having decisively beaten President Obama, Trump can now retire to Merde a Lago for a well deserved retirement.
Unless he is tried and convicted in the SDNY.
