How Long Can Trump Keep Making Noise?
--
I’m still waiting for someone, anyone, to explain to me how we elected someone so friggin’ dumb to be President of the United States. How did that happen? How could it happen?
Here’s a guy, I’m talking about Orange Sh*thead Donald Trump, who informed the world that he will not ‘partake’ in the investigation of his behavior by a Special Counsel appointed by Merrick Garland last week.
Does Trump even know what the word ‘partake’ really means? Is he even slightly aware of the fact that a Special Counsel doesn’t need his approval or his participation in order to investigate the way he behaved?
Usually when some big swinging dick becomes the subject of a DOJ investigation, he gets some lawyer to get out there and say that of course, his client will ‘cooperate’ with the efforts of a prosecutor to land the guy in jail.

And Ron DeSantis garnered 43% of the responses, as opposed to 32% for Orange Sh*thead Trump. This same polling company did an 823-person survey last month which found Trump up over DeSantis by 17 points.
In other words, if Trump is beginning to fade in Texas of all places, then he’s certainly going to be fading everywhere else. And the last thing the GOP needs is a 2024 Presidential candidate who won’t ‘partake’ in a…
