27. So....

Mon May 25, 2026, 01:28 PM

Monday

with the ridiculous war in Iran, the murder of our citizens on American streets, the daily fraud, theft and corruption of this administration and the very real possibility of the end of our Democracy.......you are most concerned about your fellow Democrats on this forum using a term Trump uses almost daily now.

I remember a DU poster last year admonishing us for commenting on Trump's obesity.

We are all in a WAR against a common enemy. We are all on the same team. We will all do our part to fight this evil in our own way, and we can't afford to be attacking each other in that process.

I just learned today that Trump really hates being called dumb. So, that's what I will call him from now on.

I sure hope the word "dumb" doesn't offend anyone.
