"When Trump is cornered he makes mistakes and exposes his weaknesses...."

Amen Adam!! These character flaws of his must be exploited incessantly to melt him down. His rant calling for another attack on the United States should he lose in '24 (Dayton, OH speech) must become ground zero for this movement. Enough is enough...

Thanks for ypur insights Adam. Trump has always been afraid of people willing to speak truth to power because he knows he's weak.

Thanks for your work on the Jan 6 committee.

Job 1: defeat Trump; Job 2: find Trump guilty; get him off the public stage, stripped of assets and public relevance; job 3: lawfully rebuild alliances with "flyover" America

It is all about how much more damage he is going to do before he is done. A cornered rat is a dangerous thing and he will try to burn the whole place down to save his skin.

I valued this piece.

Very true!

The really sad part is that he has created a movement that is potentially dangerous…

Threatening “bloodbath” in the streets!

Can the sane and rational people of this country work together, so we can have kindness and consideration reign supreme, instead of a crazy and demented man trying to be a KING?

There have been extremely marginalized communities for generations - Blacks, LGBTQ’s, women, etc. But only white, rural, “Christian” Americans, feeling “left behind” have resorted to storming the Capitol and are promising to end Democracy in a cult-fueled bloodbath if their guy doesn’t win. They’re Aided and abetted by the billionaire class who could not give a crap about them, and only want their tax breaks and deregulation. So I’m sorry, but I don’t feel sorry for these people.

Adam, friend, I am sure I don't want to hear another word from him as he continues his ejaculatory mouth rubbish when he gets ideas. Well, maybe I would hear "I was wrong" from him. He's going mental in his old age and I think his supporters might be embarrassed to continue with him while simultaneously embarrassed to admit his nobheadedness. They're probably having difficulty coming to terms that they're being used. Maybe they feel for him as the dementia progresses. Didn't his own daughter bail from the Church of Donnieweenie? I think she did! He seems stuck in the past where he was warmly welcomed as so debonair at Studio 54 while he throws his temper tantrums today because some of society won't tolerate his childishness.

I advanced the causes of aid to Ukraine and votes for Phil Heimlich and wish I would do more. Please let us know how to further assist you. -- Brother Dan

I've always been surprised that people perceive Trump as strong, because he whines like a baby.

Thank you, Adam for reminding us how weak he is!

You would think all voters, deep down, would think, how can a man who can no longer run his own business, run our Country?!?

Tell us how he chose the GOP as his target demographic? This isn’t snark. I like you and am interested in how you can be so sane while supporting policies that limit freedoms for a majority of the population (women) and marginalize those who don’t conform to ‘Christian values’.

I hope that both you and Liz Cheney can grow to recognize that oversight of manufacturing, labor laws, transportation etc are not incompatible with economic growth, but in fact bolstering it. Thanks.

Thank you, Adam. Your insight is greatly appreciated and agree with you. Going through life, we all go through many tough times, some are horrific, most turn out to also be a life lesson. When thinking what a pathetic, weak, lunatic that Trump is, I can’t wrap my head around the fact that he may wind up in the White House AGAIN. We went to a celebration of life for a 30 year old young man that we have known since he was 3. He was an avid bicyclist and a distracted driver plowed into him, killing him. This young man was a gifted student, got perfect scores on his SATs, Eagle Scout, received Order of the Arrow in scouts, gifted musically, early admission into Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, double majored and excelled in his job. This is the sort of person to look up to, to believe in, to be such an asset to our world. Not a weak, pathetic, lunatic. What is wrong in this country that we have so many people idolizing this danger to our democracy?

Thank you for this. I have started to feel 😕 that trump is inevitable. I've stopped looking at polls. I'll be anxious to see how the results go tonight.

Thank you for putting this together so succinctly. I grew up in rural Michigan with people who now are his followers. I left, they stayed, felt ignored and got angry. I love going home to visit, and when you talk to people there, it’s easy to understand their frustrations. It breaks me to see them fall for this charlatan, because “he fights for us”. Talk about voting against your own interests. Please keep speaking, maybe even just a few will crack and come back to reality.
