1*Scottish gene+1*German gene+$413,000,000 = $0,00+6*Bankruptcies+5*Draft Deferments

Smells like supremacy in that diaper.

#VOTE or DIE

PS: Awesome, Mr H.

* Across the Atlantic City casino era, six Chapter 11 bankruptcies were filed by Trump‑controlled entities (not personal bankruptcies). These include:

Trump Taj Mahal

Trump Plaza

Trump Castle / Trump Marina

Other casino holding entities tied to the above

These filings involved heavy leverage, repeated restructurings, and eventual loss of equity/control.

#7 looks like America

Corporate bankrupties are a sure fire way to make money.

Create a corporation, file papers in Delaware, they have the most corporate friendly charter law in the nation.

Use OPM (other peoples money) to build your project.Include yourself as a creditor

Pay yourself, avoid paying laborer and contractors.

Mismanage, file chapter 7 bankruptcy

The losers, pension funds, mutual funds.

Banks don't lose money, because in the fractional reserve system, the only money they have at risk, is the reserve that they put up, when they create money on the ledger, however they do make money off interest on the loan.. So long as they recoup their initial investment (the reserve) they are OK, interest payments are profit.

Speaking of human beings, are psychopaths actually human? They have no empathy or sympathy for others. Somehow those emotions and love are what defines being "human" to me.

Much of the TRump clan have a genetic mental disorder. Also, Donold's frontotemporal dementia is progressing. It's a challenge to feel anything but contempt or hatred of this creature.

TRump's racism is on full display. Racism is the demon that plagues America, and we must continue to fight it for the sake of OUR humanity. See you in the streets.

I am so sick of all the hate coming from the GOP that it's making me sick. I have lived in the most ethnically diverse society there is: military base housing. And in the years as we moved from base to base, there was seldom a problem with the tenants. There were times when I swear there were 30 children at a time playing in the yard, and seldom a problem. The wives' clubs all got along and worked together to get things done. For the most part, we considered ourselves one big family and looked out for each other. Most of the time, we did have our own family nearby, so it was our neighbors and the people in the spouses' squadron whom you turned to for help when you needed it. There were picnics, BBQs, birthdays, and births all celebrated together. It's too bad that the civilian world can't follow suit.

I feel the weight of your frustration and anger, and without diminishing that, I would like to offer the thought that dehumanizing others is exactly the problem we are tackling today. Keep that love in your heart close by, we won't solve our problems without it.

When White racists embrace science, it is to twist it to serve their sociopolitical agenda. Same for religion, same for education, same for the law. They have no power in a world that protects and defends objective reality.

I assert again, and perpetually, anti-black racism is the root of the US. Thusly, it i the sexiest thing in US politics; always has been always will be until either the US is no more, or is unrecognizable "as we know it." Did you know there is a product line called "Nugenix?" How's that for a thinly veiled insult ? On store shelves all over Amerika.

As for "blue" genes?

Never much cottoned to them.

From Uruguay author Eduardo Galeano book “Children of the Days” August 29 ; by Leopold Senghor , poet of Senegal Beloved white brother: When I was born, I was black. When I grew up, I was black. When I am in the sun, I am black. When I fall ill, I am black. When I die, I will be black. And meanwhile you: When you were born, you were pink. When you grew up, you were white. When you’re in the sun, you turn red. When you feel cold, you turn blue. When you feel fear, you turn green. When you fall ill, you turn yellow. When you die, you will be gray. So, which of us is the colored man ?

Hmmm. I'm still trying to figure out why I, a Black Man in the United States that has never been to Alkebulan (The Mother Country of ALL humanity) am "African_Amerikan" but Elon Musk and Charlize Theron ain't.

But I am kind of slow, admittedly so.

I have been to Boston, though.

Listen to some Hugh Masekela or Femi Kuti (son of Fela) or Vusi Mahlasela or Ali Farka Toure , Rohn, and you’ll get there without going ! And “slow” and deliberate still gets it done. See Looney Tunes ; An (African ?) tortoise won the race ! Sorry Bugs

I think it's racism against anyone who isn't "sufficiently white".

The Mismeasure of Man by Stephen Jay Gould is a good book that describes how we cherry pick or manufacture data to support our hypotheses

Trump was also berating a journalist for fake news at that press conference. He is disgusting.

Jayne Spence's avatar

Absolutely disgusting. He has to go. Vote Blue.

It's kind of suspect Thom that you mention this as another piece of perverse Trump propaganda but that you do not speak of the actual real time elimination of an entire people and their culture in Gaza and the West Bank. Biden and the Democrats teamed up with Israel to drop some 50,000 bombs, real bombs not just figurative ones, and you didn't mention that either. And on the rare occasion a caller would force you to you would say it's not a genocide. As we speak it continues, but you evidently do not find US participation in a genocide of an oppressed people a worthy progressive cause.

This report utterly disgusts me....

Christian Nationalism: Nazi Republican Eugenics Program

The point of cruelty of Cheeto’s regime is to show dominance by the "superior race". The question they put to the electorate: don't you want to be part of the superior group? It's in the DNA of the Chrsitian Nationalist(CN) movement to be evil and cruel.

RFK Jr’s anti vaccine policy fit very nicely with the far right’s eugenics stand because at the heart of his policy is that the strong don’t need vaccines and by prohibiting vaccines to the general population you inherently weed out the weak.

The CN racist movement is a reinvention of eugenics in the guise of supporting white Christian values. At the center of the movement is that white Christians are superior to all the rest of the world on a genetics level and therefore should rule the world. Cheeto’s abusive language toward not only the “inferior immigrants” but recently he’s been going after Europeans as well and depicts his sordid idea that supports the eugenics of the Christian Nationalists.

But this worn out trope of superiority that rang true in Hitler’s Nazi Germany is as old as humans have occupied the planet. Men aren’t created equal because men always seek to assert their dominance over others, seeking to make them better than the others. In the end though, we all come from the same Maker and are deemed with certain inalienable rights. The attack on these rights by the Nazi Republicans, Cheeto, and his obsequious billionaires all but doom the Christian Nationalist movement.

I decided to sum this up in one unfunny cartoon and posted it on BlueSky here: https://bsky.app/profile/halmbrown.bsky.social/post/3mteqqdiw4k2g

His genes must be a stupid liar thief cheat rapist pedo narcissist

Yes, we are still a racist, sexist, misogynistic country or at least 33% is. Why women or members of minority groups continue to support these politicians is just frustrating and will lead to a financial/market downfall as greed and incompetence seem to be part of this too. I feel like the Dems are bringing a knife to a gun fight ( and don’t get me started on the stupidity of Biden’s inner circle and Merrick Garland). Maybe Jon Ossoff will be the new Obama.

That the felon in chief still breathes provides so many rebuttals to his own theory. It demonstrates, among other things, the vastly superior morals of women, black males, Muslims, non-cis and poor people. Because otherwise, one of them at least would have the moral lapse that would end the fetid gaseous effusions of the most grotesque creature ever to befoul the office of POTUS. Meanwhile his policies, enforced through his cabal, the MAGAtarchy and the thugs of the MAGAtariat, have killed millions, and continue killing thousands every day around the world. There will be a reckoning. The only question is when.

Though Trump considers his genes to be superior to those of others, it is merely a reflection of his failure to objectively evaluate his own life performance.

Mother Fletcher's Flying Fig Newtons! You are so far ahead of the pack, Thom. The Lincoln/Douglas debates are still rolling on. We have to be LOUDER!
