Good morning, Trumpistan. Thanks for reminding me every single day that I was absolutely right to reject every text message and email MAGA ever sent me.

Michelle Jordan's avatar

I once got an email purporting to be from Trump saying he would love me forever for supporting him -- and, of course, asking for money. As if I ever did, or ever would! I wonder how our info ends up in the enemy's hands?

Liz R's avatar

I’ve gotten the occasional email requesting donations to the toddler-in-chief and his followers. I block them.

Joan Fregapane's avatar

I have received a few of those emails as well, and I can’t imagine where they purchased my info - Planned Parenthood or Nature Conservancy? lol

David B Shill's avatar

Thanks Adam, I look forward to the day when we can help Americans again. Let's start at square one , the constitution, and repair the damage MAGA has done. Calling out bullshit is a start.

AnaR737's avatar

Substack and Instagram surely share info. You just read and article and then they flood you. If you make a donation, it’s an avalanche.

Michelle Jordan's avatar

In the last year, the emails and texts I receive asking for money has grown from maybe 75 a day to 150 a day, and often with up to 6 a day for the same candidate or issue. However, since I donate only to the candidates and issues that are meaningful to me, I can't imagine why the current crop of Republicans would pay to get my information. Bottom line is this is one more reason to get big money out of politics and make good, thorough, and most importantly true information so easily available that expensive and emotionally manipulative ads will no longer justify their cost.

Who’s even worse.,,,ActBlue

I donated once a few years ago and now I get zillions of Donation requests from all over the country. I will never donate through

ActBlue ever again

Lysa Bee's avatar

All organizations do that once you're on their list

Kat Hudy's avatar

I’ve gotten a few of those too. I just block them.

Lolly Winston's avatar

I don’t get this junk. I wonder if it’s bc I’m a registered Dem? Weird.

Always enjoy your videos Adam.

I heard it from Sam Harris and I adopted it…

Hmmm, a new far right conservative movement may begin? Wouldn't it be something if they were successful enough to split the conservative vote or convince a large chunk of conservative voters to sit out the election? 🤔

Charlie's avatar

That's usually what third parties in the US system accomplish, isn't it? Or, always?

Chuck's avatar

Almost always. But Teddy Roosevelt's "Bull Moose Party" won...but that's pretty rare. New parties DO pop up and win, though: when's the last time you voted for a Whig or a Know-Nothing?

Charlie's avatar

Whigs went out business by late 1850s. The Know Nothings same range. And since then, from what I understand, the two nationally dominant parties closed the rules and regs to make such insurgencies almost impossible. Or, functionally impossible. There's almost nothing that prevents infiltration and redirection.

sounds good to me. maybe we aren't as screwed as i thought we were.

What a mess 😝I’m especially worried about Fauci and Ukraine

Fauci because Rand Paul is bypassing the congress vote and delivering the contempt indictment directly to the DOJ for action 🤢

Ukraine because everybody is out of the defense munitions to combat Putin bombardments. It’s so terrible.

As I said this is a mess 🙏🏻

Mari Wilson's avatar

Ukraine is so amazingly resilient and remember, Russia is losing 300 soldiers per DAY. They have also been hit in their gas/oil production sites.

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦

crazy cat lady's avatar

ABSOLUTELY! SLAVA UKRAINI!

Chuck's avatar

Additionally, private companies that provide body armor, drones, etc, are now on the bingo board: Russia's version of Amazon, Wildberries, has lost about 40% of its warehouse footage, and another Amazon-like company, OZON, is next on the menu.

As the entrepreneurs who sell those products lose their revenue, that puts pressure on them AND on average Russians, who buy A LOT of their products online for delivery, as well as putting pressure on the Orcs, as they (unlike in America and civilized nations) must provide THEIR OWN body armor, weapons, drones, etc.; so when the delivery service stops, they are sent on meatwave assaults or flag-photo incursions in tennis shoes and pajama pants...new reporting shows the average Orc lives approximately 20 minutes once arriving at the front, and last month Russia lost about 20% MORE troops than they recruited/enslaved, so it's NOT going well for them.

But remember: the Russian people have sat idly by as their dictator has destroyed their economy and population for over four years; America has only done that for two, and we still have not risen up to demand that our dictator, sorry, dictoddler follow our Constitution and laws, either.

Mari Wilson's avatar

Well said, Chuck. Thank you! And dictoddler…brilliant. 😂👏🏼😂👏🏼

Lolly Winston's avatar

I totally agree. But Ukrainians are speaking up and saying they don’t wanna be called resilient and strong anymore. They are broken down from this war.. We have to be careful not to tell them to stay strong and stay safe and those other sort of mini platitudes.

Kari Gunderson's avatar

NATO members are working to get the drones needed in Ukraine.

Mari Wilson's avatar

As they should be.

Liz R's avatar

Agree. How can they hold someone in contempt who exercised his Constitutional rights?

Ukraine-I admire them so much. The resilience and determination blows me away.

Pam Birkenfeld's avatar

Or the full horror show of how Trump has messed up the war for Ukraine, read Shankar Narayan, Concis, but also because he addresses what’s going on in Europe from strategic perspective, it’s very interesting and I don’t read about it anywhere else..

crazy cat lady's avatar

i couldn't agree more. those are my exact thoughts.

Lolly Winston's avatar

Same re: Ukraine. I check every day on two people living in Kyiv. The war is so much worse now bc Russia is using ballistic and cluster missiles from North Korea—and they have no interceptors. We were duty bound to send them air defense since the end of Biden’s term, when Congress refused to do so and went on their paid lengthy winter vacation. Then Trump and Eddie Munster Vance continually humiliated them and just plain blew them off.

Roy Shults's avatar

Becoming shell-shocked with all the bad news, all the time, I have just one goofball reaction to all the stories here: summing up everything about the POTUS in chief, let's have as his legacy a new class of outdated before being built warships, the "Chump Class".

Liz R's avatar

That’s a good term, shell shocked. I’ve thought that PTSD is and will be widespread from the continual hits we keep taking, with no chance to resolve any, before the next barrage.

JD's avatar

The MAGA hate has no place in our country and the idea they come to LV and boo our Governor because the officer has a foreign sounding name. Every single person supporting this hate should find a special seat in hell and never get to Valkyrie!

Kari Gunderson's avatar

I did not approve my tax payment being embezzled by the tRUMP regime. We don't need any more of tRUMP's vanity projects. If he wants them, he should fork out the money. Do we see a pattern here for his vanity projects, which immediately double in price that he expects us to pay for? Not me.

Denise Wallace's avatar

I was really sad today but for many reasons your updates always cheer me up. I just think your presentation shows how nuts they are and I come away feeling somewhat normal. When you are announcing a news story on how crazy the Trumpers are- I just get a kick out of your delivery. There appears to me that you have the beginning of a smirk on your face !

Markopolis Balhaus's avatar

Yes Adam has a smirk on his face and for good reason. If this stuff wasn't so crazy and dangerous it would be hysterically funny. Me too Denise, I always leave these posts feeling a little better because at least we know someone feels the same way.

Stephanie's avatar

Total shit-show!

Precedent for action against Fauci: in the 1600s the Spanish Inquisition found Galileo guilty of heresy for supporting Coperincan heliocentrism and sentenced him to house arrest for the remainder of his life. The inquisitors knew the universe revolved around the earth.

Schmiegelow Michele's avatar

Thanks Robert for reminding us about Galileo’s fate. It just shows that MAGA (like the Jihadists) live in the 16th century and that their minds are hellbent towards hate over tolerance and love. Science has no meaning and no place. It’s all about wishful thinking and revenge. Therefore the first duty of our politicians is to restore education, and all the social services that will help people to gain access to a decent life.

Brake the dictatorship of the wealthy new robber barrons, like Theodore Roosevelt (Republican) and his nephew Franklin D. Roosevelt (Democrat) did for the good of the nation.

Robert Welker's avatar

We’re on the same wavelength. We need to rescue intelligence, humanity, science, curiosity, honesty, scrutiny, respect, humility and other worthwhile values ASAP

Muzzygirl111's avatar

Yes it is, welcome home!

Richard Botteri's avatar

It’s interesting that Trump wants the “biggest” class of battleships named after him. Hitler was obsessed with the “biggest”. He ordered the biggest tanks (2 were built by Porsche- they couldn’t even move) Hitler wanted the biggest battleships, he got two, one was sunk early in the war the second had to hide for almost the whole war. Instead of listening to generals and admirals who knew what was needed, he chose grandiose and obscenely expensive alternatives which his sycophants cheered. Sound familiar.

Ellen Snyder's avatar

also the people who he should be listening to have all been fired and he has hegseth

Jude's avatar

Fascinating. Thank you for this information.

KayElemeno's avatar

I would argue MAGA never had critical thinking skills, even before Trump. He knew that! That’s how he was able to 3 card monte these idiots! That’s also why the dumbest shit comes out of his mouth and he just assumes they will believe it. And they do!

Jude's avatar

That's why he "loves the under-educated." He said that at a rally after he won the first time.

KayElemeno's avatar

That’s right he did say that. I mean he’s telling them to their face that they are perfectly dumb enough for his manipulation and they’re like “please, sir, may I have some more”

Jude's avatar

Exactly! Well put, Kay.

Michael Otter's avatar

Trump at his finest, always blaming someone else for his ineptitude. His student Hegseth has learned well. Never my fault always someone elses. I guess JD is working on perfecting his skill so he can be as worthless as his boss. I hope he and the Republicans lose big now and in 2028!

Gabrielle's avatar

Love this video! Greatly appreciate simplifying the information and facts for the average American. Thank you!

Julie's avatar

JD wont be Trumps heir. Trump is trying to pull a Putin and have a figure head get elected while he leads the country from the back seat (aka Medvedev and Putin).

crazy cat lady's avatar

actually, jd has been in politics about as long as he has been catholic. 10 minutes. he may possibly be smart as an academic, however, he has no intelligent world view. he said, "i don't care about ukraine." that's pretty brainless. if ukraine falls, poland is next. jd is actually an idiot.

Julie's avatar

JD doesnt care about Ukraine because he and his benefactor (Peter Thiel) are pro-Kremlin for reasons only they can explain. Thiel has had a long standing connection to Russian oligarchs and JD attended a rally for Orbans reelection. Its worse than brainlessness. JD is deliberate supporting authoritarians.

crazy cat lady's avatar

i did not know all of that. excuse me while i go and vomit.

Julie's avatar

Right there with you. 🤮

Janet Mallon's avatar

So with all these new costs that TRUMP is racking up, what is our national debt up to now? Last time I heard, it was almost $4 TRILLION !

Mari Wilson's avatar

Janet, it's just shy of FORTY trillion dollars. As Adam said several weeks ago, we're never going to be able to pay that off.

Remember when Clinton left office with a surplus budget? It was at a surplus for the last three years of his presidency. NO deficit. That was just 25 years ago.

Unbefrigginlievable.

Now the national debt is a separate thing, as hard as it is to believe. Clinton left office with the ND at 5.7 trillion.

You know who left with the highest percentage increase (going back 50 years)? Ronald effin' Reagan!! +184%. See what "trickle down economics" and tax cuts for the wealthy get you? And so many people think he was just the greatest. Including Adam. I pray he will see the light someday. Remember, Ronald Reagan was an actor and they are quite good at what they do.
