I guess I'm still a little bit naive.

I honestly thought Trump would trot out some staffer-written generic "Thoughts and Prayers" tweet regarding Rob Reiner, like how he did after President Carter passed.

There was just that sliver of hope of the tiniest shred of humanity in the man. Just for him to do the barest of the bare minimum of decency.

I mean, if you honestly can't think of anything nice to say, just say you liked The Princess Bride. Because everyone likes The Princess Bride. It's just an eminently likeable film, no matter who you are.

But no, we got this:




There is no bar low enough for this piece of human excrement. None.

Chump is incapable of grief or empathy. That's why his cellphone should have been taken away years ago.

... than Trump's total lack of human decency, is the Republican Party's continued support of this walking malignancy. They all put their own selfish interests ahead of the best interests of the nation as a whole. They could justifiably impeach him 20 times over, but they put Der Party ahead of the country. We have to rid ourselves of these sewer rats, and get busy repairing the damage they've done.

It's modified from a pic I got off the internet, probably AI. I forgot what was originally there!!

The Epstein Event Horizon is coming soon, and he gets crazier every day to distract from it. Everything he has done, IMO, is to distract.

Money. Of course. I am convinced that he was in business with Epstein for money laundering and blackmail. This will destroy his control and fortune.

to have expectations that the worst possible person like trump would have any of the decency of the best possible person like Rob Reiner.

Why would he change now? He is a petty vindictive child and a loser.

His physical and mental deterioration are used-up stage-hands compared to this tail-spin of emotional degeneracy.

(and for Statler & Waldorf: no, I hold no hi-tech crystal balls and make no formal assertions. Please avoid literalism in informal conversations- it's the mark of a very tiresome guest)
