Toad was already taken on Twitter. Trump is extra pissed tonight

 

I guess that is as close as I am going to get to hearing a recording of trump insulting his followers.

 

My message to Republicans bitching Democrats are hypocrites for calling for unity, then calling to impeach Trump

Josh Hawley has no friends in the upper house of Congress.

WASHINGTON—In a secure room where stunned senators were hiding from an angry mob on Wednesday, Sen. Josh Hawley stood in a corner, mostly alone.

“It was extremely striking,” said a person who was in the room on that chaotic day. “For most of the time, he was in a corner of the room by himself with no one talking to him or acknowledging him.”

The Missouri Republican’s Senate colleagues were furious with him, according to GOP aides. Minutes before, pro-Trump rioters had overrun the U.S. Capitol, forcing senators to halt the ratification of Democrat Joe Biden’s presidential victory and flee their chamber in terror, some running, some while holding hands.

Mr. Hawley, an ambitious 41-year-old former Missouri attorney general, last week became the first senator to say he would object to the results of the 2020 presidential election, bucking GOP leaders and sending shock waves through his conference. By law, an objection requires the backing of at least one House member and one senator to trigger a debate and vote on whether to disqualify a state’s electoral results. Once Mr. Hawley had signed on, there was enormous pressure on other Republican senators to follow suit or risk being seen as betraying President Trump.

Now he has become a pariah among Senate Republicans, many of whom blame him for what they see as his role instigating a riot that overwhelmed the Capitol and resulted in the deaths of five people, including a Capitol Police officer.​

When and if this "second wave" gets going, the police response has to be: one warning, then shoot to kill.

 

Ah, it was fun while it lasted. I blame soccer.

 

Nothing to see here.

 

POTUSrejects.com is going to be awesome.

 

I just told my kid it feels like the end of Batman Returns when none of the Batman-controlled penguins will do The Penguin's bidding.

 

Every time I read about him, I laugh till I cry. If that's wrong, I don't want to be right.
