He didn’t lose the 2020 Election…..
He isn’t a sexual predator …..
He isn’t in the hole for $850 Million in civil judgements fines….
He isn’t a Convicted Felon…..
The List just grows of a man who is a altered Reality to those who support him….
Those in Congress who hid under their desks Jan. 6, 2021….
Are included as Trump’s minions and lemmings….
Trying to erase history……
How quick they forget, eh?
The history-making felony conviction of former President Donald J. Trump has raised some historic questions for the House’s rules of decorum, which have existed for centuries but can be bent to the will of whichever party controls the majority-driven chamber.
The Republicans who now hold the majority have used those rules to impose what is essentially a gag order against talking about Mr. Trump’s hush-money payments to a porn actress or about the fact that he is a felon at all, notwithstanding that those assertions are no longer merely allegations but the basis of a jury’s guilty verdict. Doing so, they have declared, is a violation of House rules.
In short, perhaps the only place in the United States where people are barred from talking freely about Mr. Trump’s crimes is the floor of what is often referred to as “the people’s House,” where Republicans have gone so far as to erase one such mention from the official record.
In recent weeks, Republican leaders have cracked down on Democrats who refer to Mr. Trump’s court cases on the floor, citing the centuries-old rules of decorum, which date back to the days of Thomas Jefferson. Merely mentioning that Mr. Trump is a felon prompts an admonishment from whomever is presiding when the offending fact is uttered. (Mr. Trump is also indicted on felony charges in cases related to his handling of classified documents and attempting to overturn the 2020 election.)
“The chair would remind members to refrain from engaging in personalities toward presumptive nominees for the office of the president,” is now a common phrase heard in the chamber after the mention of the words “Trump” and “felon.”
On one occasion, Republicans barred Representative Jim McGovern, Democrat of Massachusetts, from speaking for the rest of the day and deleted his comments from the Congressional Record after he railed against Mr. Trump and his court cases….

Hate is the most powerful emotion.
The unbridled hate MAGA has for those who refuse to embrace their lies and deceits knows no bounds.

The Washington Post is reporting about a blizzare , plan if you can call it that ,to foment dissension at the Republican convention,not by NeverTrumpers ,but by supposedly loyal MAGA types.
The “ conspiracy “ apparently originated at a meeting of National convention delegates in Arizona.Some of the kooks supposedly think that Trump has too many “ deep state “advisors and are worried about whom he might pick as the VP candidate.Others are interested in replacing a jailed Trump with Putin loyalist Michael Flynn, the nutjob criminal that Trump pardoned .
The whole thing sounds crazy but apparently the Trump campaign is taking it somewhat seriously and is attempting to identify “ disloyal” delegates.
None of this should be too surprising .
As referenced earlier, extremist groups like the MAGA movement often turn on each other in search of enemies.Now that the old line right wingers have been mostly vanquished ,who is there left to fight?
Often in these type situations ,where kooks rule the roost and there is no one left to hate ?
The nutjobs are only left one option….
Hate each other.
What a pitiful country we have become .
