I have a feeling these last few months have aged him 20 years.

Imagine having to appease that overgrown toddler as you try to keep the plague outside your country so as to not have a trade / supply disaster on your hands.

I think I'd keep a Trump shooting target in my backyard. Blast it with a shotgun on a death metal soundtrack at max volume for stress relief.

We're on a sticky wicket, what?

Has it been confirmed that Trump has a brain?

(I picture his head full of a ball of twisting maggots).

What about that cop, Crews? Someone hands you flowers and you post- on your Facebook account at a time when EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD! is protesting police violence, a statement so shitty! The woman is giving her flowers and Crews is wishing her harm. Sociopath!

The ultimate cropdusting is when, as a server, you place the plates of delicious food on the table where you have to serve a complaint of Karens, rip off a Silent But Deadly, and then vanish for a few minutes.

If I ran this country, I'd fire them all and NONE could be rehired. It would be recreated entirely from scratch in which training is focused on deescalation tactics and seeing the community as something to be part of, not the enemy. But anyone who is rehired would pose a risk of returning to their original training. Not to mention that if we're reframing police jobs, it would require a different set of personality traits than the psychopathic ones that currently help them "succeed." (And, of course, intelligence would actually be a plus instead of a minus in applicants.)

And appropriate more money for training. Money for making sure they relax. How about no guns? Then there'd be some legislation on the gun front.

Since we're making such good plans right now, I'd like to propose that if the Public Defender offices were really resourced the way prosecutor's offices are, that would be the way to convey to police that-- contrary to what they may believe deep down-- they aren't doing the community's bidding in crushing the occasional black 'criminal.' Because that's what they think they're doing, I'm convinced. With strong advocates on the other side, the consequences would get significant for bad police, and it would sink in that the community doesn't approve of their crap efforts.
