Dangerous POTUS

Submitted by ub on

The question that all Americans should be asking themselves today is our nation better off now than we were three years ago?

Does Trump expect that voters will all be exhausted by all of this and we will turn away? For the sake of our democracy. we must deal with this cancer today.

There are clear and present dangers of normalizing POTUS policies, his attacks on our natural resources, on justice, the racism, the misogyny, his demonization of the free press should make all Americas see that supporting him masks an increasingly and alarming incoherence!

I dearly missed you for double-digit days and especially on some cold and lonely nights. I sincerely hope that I'm never left without you.

After a couple of long weeks, I could not help noticing how quickly you warmed up and how happy you made me feel when I began taking off my clothes. The hotter you got the more excited I then became.

With all the talk about how China is taking advantage of the USA, President Trump appears to be ready to give it all away for a price. His tariff war smells so fishy, it has now reached deep into the deep blue sea and affected the Lobster industry.

POTUS is putting tariffs on China trying to injure their economy and Russia has been in our crosshairs for 3 years, but somehow Trump can not bring himself to say anything bad about Putin. Does anyone understand his MO?

The Palindrome

What's your favorite number? Mine is number three. I am the third of three sons, I own condo number 3, I lived on the third floor of my university dorm in room 303, do you get the idea?

This morning, then again tonight at 9 a.m. and p.m., 19 minutes, 19 seconds on 9-19-19, it will be the Palindrome: a word, phrase, number, or another sequence of symbols or elements, whose meaning may be interpreted the same way in either forward or reverse direction. This will not occur again for decades, so I promise to never mention it again.
