Comments on Trump’s Joint-Session Address, from our contributing pundits …
Must Be Stopped
Apparently, DJT will never, ever get over the fact that Joe Biden beat him fair and square in the 2020 election, by more than 8 million popular votes and a huge margin in Electoral College votes. He will never, ever stop berating the Biden administration and Joe Biden personally because Trump is the worst kind of sore loser. And, besides that, the most consistently absurd liar in the history of American politics. It was sickening to watch the smirking faces of (Vice President JD) Vance and (Speaker Mike) Johnson seated behind His Majesty, soon to be up for a Nobel Peace prize for screwing Ukraine. This has to be stopped.

Racial Slur
"Pocahontas?" Did I hear that correctly?
During a speech in front of the world, the president of this United States just called Senator Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas."
Who, in their right mind, is okay with that? Who is okay with the Republican laughter that followed that racial slur? Vance actually laughed out loud.
Those with sense in their head will say this behavior is childish, elementary, unbecoming of a President, but it is far beyond that. We have a real problem, this man is dangerous.
What do we do? Where do we go from here? The only place is down, if we allow this to continue. Congress, the writing is on the wall.
