Donald Trump is King of America. His family is now royalty.
"Democracy Grief Is Real"
Seeing what Trump is doing to America, many find it hard to fight off despair.

"Lately, I think I’m experiencing democracy grief. For anyone who was, like me, born after the civil rights movement finally made democracy in America real, liberal democracy has always been part of the climate, as easy to take for granted as clean air or the changing of the seasons. When I contemplate the sort of illiberal oligarchy that would await my children should Donald Trump win another term, the scale of the loss feels so vast that I can barely process it."
Despair is easy under Trump's "rule." But defeat is not a given, defeat is not automatic. Americans can change this, and fix this. We've seen "better Angels." We can vote the "Fat Bastard" out!
Tweety Trump has loyal servants who fear him. Most of the GOP Congresspersons fear Tweety like he was Tony Soprano, a Mob Boss. A minority of Republicans are fighting him, highlighting his corruption, intelligent people like George Conway and his group.
Too many Americans excuse their "love" of Tweety as frustration with people hiding their corruption. Tweety supporters like to SEE and HEAR the corruption of Tweety, seem to enjoy being lied to, have fooish excuses for bad behavior pushed in their faces,
Tweety is tacking the judiciary throughout America with ultra-conservatives judges who, for the most part will rule for his political views, and add to his ability to be KING!
Tweety literally steals donations from charities, yet his supporters will not abandon him. Trump admits guilt, judge fines him, then Tweety tries to spin it into I did a good deed, so my bad act was OK?

NEW YORK (AP) — A judge Thursday ordered President Donald Trump to pay $2 million to an array of charities as a fine for misusing his own charitable foundation to further his political and business interests.
New York state Judge Saliann Scarpulla imposed the penalty after the president admitted to a series of abuses outlined in a lawsuit brought against him last year by the New York attorney general’s office.
Among other things, Trump acknowledged in a legal filing that he allowed his presidential campaign staff to coordinate with the Trump Foundation in holding a fundraiser for veterans during the run-up to the 2016 Iowa caucuses. The event was designed “to further Mr. Trump’s political campaign,” Scarpulla said.
In a defiant statement issued Thursday evening, though, Trump suggested he was neither sorry nor in the wrong.
“I am the only person I know, perhaps the only person in history, who can give major money to charity (19M), charge no expense, and be attacked by the political hacks in New York State,” he wrote.
He assailed a series of Democratic attorneys general of New York who were involved with the suit, saying they should have spent their time investigating the Clinton Foundation."
Who does this kind of thing? A terribly sick, pathological human being!
"Trump Pays $2 Million to 8 Charities for Misuse of Foundation"
Under a settlement, the president admitted he had used his charity to bolster his campaign and settle business debts.

Trump used the charity money as his checking account! What would it take for any of his cult to leave his camp?
"“Charities are not a means to an end, which is why these damages speak to the president’s abuse of power and represent a victory for not-for-profits that follow the law,” the attorney general, Letitia James, said in a statement. “Funds have finally gone where they deserve — to eight credible charities.”
Last month, a state judge ordered the president to give $2 million to the eight charities, or $250,000 per charity. Under the settlement, Mr. Trump’s lawyers also agreed to liquidate the Trump Foundation’s remaining assets of more than $1.7 million and disburse them to those same nonprofits, which have no connection to the president or his family.
The president wired payments directly to the organizations a few weeks ago, but the payments were not made public until this week, an official in the attorney’s office said."
Look at who Tweety steals from! This Tweety guy is an ugly, mean person.
"The nonprofit groups that received payments were the Army Emergency Relief, the Children’s Aid Society, Citymeals on Wheels, Give an Hour, Martha’s Table, the United Negro College Fund, the United Way of the National Capital Area, and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. Each received a total of $476,140.01."
Many who support Tweety Trump accused Obama of acting like a King. What is their view of Trump acting like a King in a MUCH more aggressive and obvious way?
Trump flaunts the idea he is above the law, and essential shouts deal with it!
I am astonished that Tweety Trump goes on and on misleading, harassing, fear mongering, and bullying so many people, honest, respectable people, with no proof, no evidence, no logic, no conscience, no integrity, no credibility, yet smart, intelligent Americans continue to support him, defend him, and fear him.
Tweety Trump has only the power his supporters give him, yet they fear him? I read that Tweety is "their" OJ, a man guilty of a horrible murder of his wife, but Tweety supporters don't care about the crimes Tweety commits!
"Trump says ‘it doesn’t really matter’ if Iranian general posed an imminent threat"
By Karen DeYoung - Associate editor and senior national security correspondent

"“It [The "imminent threat"] doesn’t really matter because of his horrible past,” Trump wrote. The administration has held Soleimani, as head of Iran’s Quds Force, responsible for orchestrating Iran’s use of proxy forces in terrorist attacks throughout the Middle East, and the deaths of hundreds of U.S. soldiers over the years, long before the threat it has said justified the Jan. 3 U.S. drone strike that killed him."
"President Trump has said that Iranian Maj. Gen. Qasem Soleimani was planning attacks on four U.S. embassies. Senior administration officials have declined to confirm that assertion."
"President Trump added to the controversy over his administration’s justification for the killing of an Iranian general, saying Monday that “it doesn’t really matter” whether it was in response to an imminent threat to the United States.
In a tweet, Trump criticized Democrats for trying to determine whether Iranian attacks the administration has said were planned by Maj. Gen. Qasem Soleimani against U.S. targets were imminent.
“It doesn’t really matter because of his horrible past,” Trump wrote. The administration has held Soleimani, as head of Iran’s Quds Force, responsible for orchestrating Iran’s use of proxy forces in terrorist attacks throughout the Middle East, and the deaths of hundreds of U.S. soldiers over the years, long before the threat it has said justified the Jan. 3 U.S. drone strike that killed him.
In a separate tweet, Trump emphasized Soleimani’s past actions rather than the threat of future attacks. “The Democrats and Fake News are trying to make terrorist Soleimani into a wonderful guy [No, that is more Trump bull shit! The GOP rides with Trump on this calling Democrats "traitors." The fact is the GOP make themselves traitors by supporting a President who can take American soldiers, likely many innocent Americans in the not so distant future who find themselves vulnerable to the terrorists Trump inspires, and many innocent Arabs US soldiers will likely have to kill, because of Trump's freaking LACK OF IMPULSE CONTROL! The choice of the GOP to side with trump despite Trump not having any logic for such an attack and murder / assassination makes the GOP "traitors" to our Constitution!], only because I did what should have been done for 20 years,” he wrote."
So Tweety can start any war, kill anyone, do whatever he wants if he decides it, right?
