I totally agree with your premises and yet every morning I awake thinking "is he dead yet?". I do foresee a drooling iijit in a wheelchair being pushed around by Nauta, and that unlovely sight will turn magats off.

My only wish is that a stroke diminish his capabilities in the same way he mocked that journalist during his first campaign. Poetic justice is still justice.

They all vote for Abbott and that's exactly how I see that AH. Maga have no standards.

I love how the unnamed subject of the essay was obvious just from the title. Says a lot.

Robert Cadigan's avatar

I didn’t even notice he was unnamed!! I hope he doesn’t read this piece. He may think it is about someone else (probably Joe Biden or Bruce Springsteen).

"the reign of Vladimir Futon creating his own Ottoman Empire..."

Glad I wasn't drinking when I read this line! 🤣💀

You've been eavesdropping on our coven's doings again. I've been casting every spell I can find trying to give that wannabeking cantaloupe a massive stroke, Preferably, on a stage in front of every reporter on the planet watching him piss and shit himself on the way down. Once he's incapacitated but not dead his followers will slink away like roaches running from a bright light.

Well damn this is another ME TOO moment!!!

Yes, I agree with all of this. We don't want him shot, we don't want him to die suddenly. I believe that spell has to be broken—as broken as he will be—if he has a stroke and can't speak, stand, or take to social media anymore. I want him to be just cognizant enough to KNOW that he can't do any of those things. I believe that spell will be broken, probably faster than we think, because no one else—not even Couch Fucker—has the cult-like devotion that Krasnov does.

It’s amazing to go through every comment and be like; “ya, okay. Yes. Totally agree.

You are my people 😊

I know I sure am glad you are here!!!

I already say "dear god, what is that thing?"

When Scalia died of natural causes, Dems were accused of killing him. There is no upside to his death at this point. JD Vance, Hegseth and Johnson are not improvements. We need a strong Democratic Congress to rein this sh3t in.

MAGA is full of rich white men. Their numbers are dwindling - demographics is destiny. We need AOC/Crockett in 2028 to lead us into a diverse, inclusive, and progressive future! https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/aoc-crockett-2028

As much as I’d love that, or an AOC/Buttigieg ticket, I think the only way to win - assuming Trump hasn’t completely derailed the system of voting in a president by 2028 - is for a nice, good-looking, strong, whiter-than-white, middle class background, Christian, straight male to step up to the plate. I think that’s the only way that you’ll sway the fence-sitters in the red states. Half of those nutbags will run for the hills the second someone like AOC whispers anything about DEI. And by that time, the Trump regime’s brainwashing will be four years into full effect. Dems need to restore some faith in the reds that will be hurting at Walmart and McDonald’s, and the only thing to do there is to tamp down the humanity and human decency,and appeal to their dumb, empty wallets.

Bill Williamson's avatar

That would be a godsend❣️💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸

Dennis Dixon's avatar

Thinking like that is what got us Trump in the first place. We need to get away from the progressives, more back to the middle.

Christy Weigle's avatar

I believe you have that backwards. Remember Bernie Sanders?

Honestly, at this point if someone found 666 tattooed behind his ear, I’d be “Mmm… yeah, kinda’ tracks, I guess.”

Only if he dies with a hooker, they will call him or her a Dem , or his wife will take the fall. That might be the only way the riots of the equally unhealthy may be shortened.

I wish everyone would give the "Garland Did Us Wrong" country song a rest. The sole reason we are in this mess is Mitch McConnell. If he'd had the balls to allow his caucus to vote their consciences over the January 6th impeachment articles, MAGA's Orange Crush would be in court or in jail as we speak and Garland would be a Supreme Court trivia question.

Sriram Sri's avatar

Two things can be true. Mitch is to blame - but Merrick COULD have done something about it when Mitch failed to have a backbone. I blame both of them.

I would like to see him go Terry Pratchett-style, where an eagle drops a tortoise on his head. Even better, a Canada Goose dropping a rock!

I think roasting inside the iron turtle is more what these guys have in mind.

Rooting for him to pass with all the grace and dignity of Elvis Presley.

Oh!!!! See…I was not a fan of E and when one of our Photographer friend of the family gave a beautiful black and white (kind of gothic) framed print of Graceland- I hung it in the bathroom.

Choked on my coffee at Vladimir Futon and the Ottoman Empire. Oh, my sinuses, they burn...

I genuinely hope he expires in the middle of one of his word salad "rallies," right after praising himself for "saving Christianity."

OVER THE LINE's avatar

And add a dash of him saying how healthy he is!

Paul A's avatar

From your lips to Col. Sanders' ears.

I vote for a massive stroke while he's doing a live and televised speaking engagement. Let his followers see him shit and piss himself while flailing around on the ground. Not so he can suffer; to hell with him (probably literally, if there is one). But to finally, maybe, force a dose of reality on the encultified.

Frances Gardner's avatar

James you are genius with a turn of the profane phrases, I so enjoy your writings. And I fear you are correct about the chances of demise and the chances of any resulting improvement in our lives. Dim, and also dim. But one can always hope.

OVER THE LINE's avatar

But….if an Oligarch from another (enemy) country made him quiet and no longer breathing…….

Butch's avatar

All this. Exactly this.

Dianne's avatar

I've been wishing he'd choke on a hamburger but I'd happily settle for a stroke. I wish the same fate on our fangirl Premier. She need to go too.
