  • Nancy Pelosi’s Playing 3-D Chess With a President Who Has Trouble with 4-Piece Puzzles

    The U.S. president’s blind spot has always been women. The president is such a misogynist that he doesn’t believe that women are as capable, or strong and smart enough to outwit him, which is hilarious considering this is the same president that has trouble reading off a teleprompter.

  • Trump Sends Savage Letter to Nancy Pelosi That’s Full of Lies and Exclamation Points

    So Trump didn’t come before the House committees during the impeachment inquiries and most likely won’t appear in front of the Senate to answer questions regarding his phone call with the Ukrainian president, which absolutely included Trump withholding aid in exchange for an investigation into dirt on political rival Joe Biden and his son Hunter,…

    Trump’s Thirsty Ass Loves an Audience, So Why’s He Acting Like He Won’t Attend Next Year’s General Election Debate?

    There are only three things President Trump loves more than a captive audience and a camera: women not named Melania, a smoothie made of goat’s blood and venom, and his son, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.). So the president can kill it with his pump-faking antics like he won’t be attending next year’s presidential debates. On…
