Trump’s Garbage Truck Stunt

After comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” in a joke during the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden on October 27, the campaign received immediate and vociferous criticism.

In a razor-close election the defection of a few Republican Puerto Rican voters in a swing state like Pennsylvania can mean the difference between winning and losing.

The Trump campaign-was in panic mode but leave it to senile gaffe machine Joe Biden to throw them a lifeline.

Asked about Hinchcliffe’s joke during a Zoom call with the Voto Latino nonprofit, Biden answered: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters.”

Trump seized on the opportunity to troll Biden by renting a brand-new garbage truck, and naturally he put his name on the side of it.

The septuagenarian struggled to open the truck door, almost falling down. A 78-year-old with cognitive issues and doll hands, is ill-equipped to cos play a sanitation worker.

Trump who compared America to a garbage can, should have been tossed in the back of the truck, that’s where the garbage belongs.

Joe Biden was an idiot for calling Trump supporters “garbage”, especially after Kamala Harris had just delivered a speech at the Ellipse where she appealed to Republican voters to put the constitution over party and vote for her,

Trump and his supporters are garbage, but he was unwise to alienate half of the electorate. Leave it to bloggers to call a spade a spade.

Let’s take out the garbage on November 5.

Trump’s Lock Screen is a Pic of Himself

Your cell phone is a minicomputer that contains a gazillion bytes of data: your financial information, hundreds of photos, your browsing history, the telephone numbers of the most important people in your life, your dating profile … If a biographer unlocked your phone, he may not need to do any other research.

But even if your phone is locked, we can tell a lot about you just by looking at your lock screen. Out of the tons of pics that are stored in our phone, we can choose only one image, so naturally the shot that we select holds a lot of meaning.

I’m a misanthrope, it should come as no surprise that my pooch Princess graces my lock screen. When I pick up my phone, I want a face expressing love, empathy and loyalty looking back at me.

People usually select a photo of the person they love the most, whether it’s a lover, spouse, grandchild, parent or pet.

Donald Trump’s locked phone was seen face-up on a table during a photo-op, and it should come as no surprise to anyone that his lock screen photo is a picture of himself.

Trump is a sociopath who is incapable of empathy or loving anyone else, he loves only himself and it’s fitting that he chose an image of himself.

Voters would be well-advised to keep this in mind on election day.

Comic at Trump Madison Square Garden Rally Calls Puerto Rico ‘Floating Island of Garbage’

“Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, one of the openers for former President Donald Trump at his Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday, referred to Puerto Rico as ‘a floating island of garbage’, part of a series of crude remarks by speakers at the highly anticipated rally.”

Forbes.com

Donald Trump held a rally in Madison Square Garden in the deep blue city of New York City, and one of his opening speakers, comic Tony Hinchcliffe, proceeding to tell an ugly anti-Puerto Rican joke in a city that over half a million Puerto Ricans call home.

The racist comedian also told this anti-Latino comment disguised as a joke:

“And these Latinos, they love making babies too. Just know that. They do. They do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside. Just like they did to our country.”

Hinchcliffe is infamous for his racist wisecracks; he was dropped by his agent for hurling an anti-Asian racist slur at a fellow comic on stage. Hinchcliffe wasn’t chosen as an opening speaker in spite of his history of racism, but because of it, the organizers of this MAGA shitshow knew that his racist brand of racism would resonate with Trump supporters.

Hinchcliffe, like most of Trump’s sycophants, follow the lead of their Dear Leader, who mocks, ridicules and condemns migrants, Latinos, blacks, and other marginalized communities.

I trust that the majority of Puerto Ricans in New York City, and the over half a million Puerto Ricans in the swing state of Pennsylvania, and indeed most Americans who find the thought of a racist commander-in-chief intolerable will vote for Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump the Protector of Women

“I WILL PROTECT WOMEN AT A LEVEL NEVER SEEN BEFORE. THEY WILL BE HEALTHY, HOPEFUL, SAFE, AND SECURE.”

Donald Trump post on Truth Social

White evangelicals don’t doubt or disbelief even the craziest comments that emanate from Trump’s dementia-impaired mind, they accept every utterance of their orange messiah as the Gospel truth.

Never mind, that Trump is a pathological liar, if he was strapped to a lie detector machine, it would short-circuit.

When Trump told the women at a MAGA rally, “You will no longer have anxiety from all the problems our country has today. You will be protected, and I will be your protector”, he wasn’t met with stunned silence. Instead, the crowd, especially the women, ecstatically applauded their Lord and Protector.

I’m sure it never entered their minds that their protector is a serial adulterer who has been found guilty of rape in a civil trial, and that dozens of women claim that he sexually assaulted them.

Evangelical women are indoctrinated into believing that they need men to protect them from all the problems in society. The fair sex implicitly trust their husbands and male pastors to shield them from the vagaries of life so that they can focus on raising their children and tending to their flower gardens.

Evangelical pastors have a penchant for sexually abusing female parishioners, and this epidemic of sexual abuse is matched by an epidemic of denial.  

These evangelical women need to wake up, smell the coffee and realize that their spiritual protectors care more about their bodies than  their souls and their political protector cares more about their votes than about the issues that affect them.

Evangelicals Interrupt Harris Rally by Yelling ‘Jesus is Lord’

During a campaign rally on October 17, in La Crosse, Wisconsin, Vice President Kamala Harris was speaking about reproductive freedom when two protestors interrupted her yelling “Christ is King” and “Jesus is Lord.”

“Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally,” Harris retorted, eliciting applause and cheers from her crowd. “I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”

Evangelicals have their panties in a twist, excoriating Harris for having the temerity to put the hecklers in their place. They have called her everything from Jezebel to the Antichrist.

Shouting “Jesus is Lord” is kosher when an evangelical pastor is preaching to his flock, or when the orange messiah is ranting and raving at a MAGA rally.

Silencing the Christian hecklers by advising them that they were at the wrong rally doesn’t mean that Harris is anti-Christian, it means that she won’t put up with male white evangelical troublemakers trying to silence a woman of color, especially when she’s speaking on the subject of women having sovereignty over their own bodies.

The Christian students who rudely interrupted Harris claim they were led by the Holy Spirt, but the reality is that they were led by political considerations.

An evangelical shouting “Jesus is Lord” at a Harris rally that celebrates diversity freedom and “girl power” is as welcome as a radical Islamist shouting “Allahu Akbar” at a MAGA rally that celebrates white Christian nationalism.

Trump Obsesses Over Arnold Palmer’s Huge Putter

“Arnold Palmer was all man, and I say that in all due respect to women — and I love women, but this guy, this guy, this is a guy that was all man. This man was strong and tough. And I refuse to say it, but when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there, they said, ‘Oh my God, that’s unbelievable.'”

Donald Trump

When Trump goes off script you never know where his demented stream-of-consciousness rant will take him. He might mention “the late great Hannibal Lecter” as if he were a historical character, he might wax poetic about windmills causing cancer or go into a tirade about toilets that need a dozen times to flush.

But I never thought that Dementia Don would go off on a 12-mintute riff about the virtues of Arnold Palmer, climaxing in an off-color joke about Palmer’s huge dick.

This soliloquy praising Palmer’s manhood was totally inappropriate considering many MAGA cultists make pilgrimages to Trump rallies with their children in tow. Isn’t the Republican Party supposed to be the party of family values? Don’t his evangelical supporters worship him as a messiah figure? I don’t think that Jesus ever praised the apostle Peter for having a penis longer than the spear he used to catch fish.

Trump is a billionaire who unwinds by playing a few rounds of golf, but his story about Palmer, regardless how interesting it may have been, didn’t resonate with his blue-collar supporters who can’t afford to buy a set of golf clubs that sell for an average of a thousand bucks.

I don’t care if Palmer’s penis was as long as his putter, a presidential candidate should have the decency and discretion to keep that information to himself.

The Hate Speech that Emanates from Trump’s Sphincter-Shaped Mouth is Horrifying

Donald Trump’s sphincter-shaped mouth is terrifying, the grotesque orifice looks like it is in imminent danger of expelling a log that would clog Satan’s toilet. If I were tasked with painting the devil or an evil alien in a horror flick, I would paint them with Trump’s piehole.

But as horrifying as Trump’s maw is, the verbal diarrhea that emanates from it is even worse. The racist rhetoric, homophobia, misogyny, and sheer stupidity will drive any rational person to cover their ears and run away from the putrid source of evil beyond human comprehension.

Trump held a MAGA rally in Detroit when his microphone malfunctioned. The blowhard paced the stage for 18 minutes, an expression of exasperation on his mug.

Those who believe that God sometimes intervenes in human affairs were left wondering why the hell He doesn’t smite the belligerent asshole with muteness?

The 18 minutes of silence was a short and sweet respite from Trump’s offensive rhetoric. As soon as the microphone worked again, he doubled down on his hate speech.

The only way to permanently silence Trump’s cacophony is by defeating him in the polls. If he is humiliated and rejected by the American electorate again, maybe, just maybe, he will finally shut up and spend his remaining days golfing, cheating on his wife, and enjoying his golden showers.

Trump Loves Gay Anthem ‘YMCA’

Y.M.C.A is the unofficial anthem of the LGBTQ community; the ditty is played at Pride events, weddings, and sporting events.

It was a monster hit for the Village People, a disco group infamous for their kitschy on-stage costumes and gay-centric lyrics.

The members of the group dressed as characters from various occupations, including a cop, a biker and a cowboy. They symbolized American masculinity and macho gay-fantasy personas.

The song was released in 1978, a time when there weren’t that many public places where gays could meet and socialize. Ironically, the YMCA, a Christian organization, which featured open showers, was a clandestine meeting places for gay men.

YMCA may be a gay anthem, but it’s beloved by gays and straights, young and old, and lovers of all genres of music, even those who hate disco.

YMCA, with its lyrics extolling gay pride, is a staple at the homophobic MAGA rallies. Donald Trump always ends his rallies dancing to YMCA.

It’s a trip watching gay-hating evangelicals at Trump’s rallies dancing and singing the lyrics:

It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

It’s fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A.

They have everything,

For young men to enjoy.

If only Trump would listen to the lyrics, he might stop hatin’ on the LGBT community.

The next time Trump dances to YMCA, I hope he imitates the member of the group who dressed as the Native American, and strips down to his diapers, in lieu of the loincloth that the “Indian” wore on stage.

Female Shopper Knocked Out by Cauliflower Says Her Life is Ruined

“A female shopper was knocked unconscious by a head of cauliflower while grocery shopping — and she says the incident has ruined her life and caused her long-term health problems.”

The New York Post

It’s an inexorable law of nature that shit happens, sometimes when you least expect it. Sammi Mai, 42, was grocery shopping when she bent down to look at the bottom shelf and a head of cauliflower fell down from the top shelf and hit her noggin.

A normal non-litigious person would shrug it off and marvel at the absurdity of life. But Mai, in my opinion, pretended to be knocked unconscious and is now claiming that the incident has irrevocably ruined her life.

My reaction? Bitch, please! If a head of cauliflower fell on your ear it would cause no damage, it certainly wouldn’t leave you with a case of cauliflower ear.

Mai is being as melodramatic as Trump the drama queen who reacted as if a ballistic missile had mangled his ear when a bullet fragment grazed his ear.

Mai doesn’t have high-priced lawyers like Trump, and if she does sue, her lawsuit will get thrown out.

Donald Trump Tells Women: ‘I Will be Your Protector’

The evangelical world is a patriarchal system where the husband is the provider and protector of his family, and likewise the pastor, usually a male, is the protector of his flock.

Christian women are conditioned to defer to the wisdom of their better halves and the weaker sex depend on the men in their lives to protect them from the temptations and dangers of the world.

Therefore, evangelical women weren’t nonplussed when Donald Trump, the predator-in-chief, told them at one of his MAGA rallies:

“You will no longer be in danger. … You will no longer have anxiety from all the problems our country has today. You will be protected, and I will be your protector.”

This echoed the sentiment he expressed in his Truth Social platform:

“I WILL PROTECT WOMEN AT A LEVEL NEVER SEEN BEFORE. THEY WILL BE HEALTHY, HOPEFUL, SAFE, AND SECURE.”

Women have agency over their careers and families, they don’t need protection from the men in their lives. They certainly don’t need to be protected by a billionaire who thinks his wealth and celebrity gives him the right to grab them by the pussy.

In fact, men and women, need protection from the authoritarian sociopath who will destroy our democracy if he returns to power. The best way to protect ourselves from Trump is by voting for Kamala Harris.

Trump’s ‘God Bless the USA Bible Made in China

“A Chinese printing company … shipped 120,000 of “God Bless the USA” Bibles to the USA. Three separate shipments cost $342,000, averaging out to $3 per Bible. Trump is selling hand-signed copies of his branded Bible for $1,000, and the minimum price for an unsigned copy is $59.99.”

The New Republic

Donald Trump, the grifter-in-chief, is on a pre-election grifting blitz, peddling Trump coins, Trump watches and Trump digital trading cards.

In his campaign stump speech Donald Trump (Mr. America First) never fails to lambast China for hurting American businesses and taking American jobs. He boasts that if he wins the election on Day One, he will institute tariffs against Chinese imports. I wonder if he will impose a tariff on his Bible.

Gold gilded pages and a leather cover doesn’t make a Bible valuable, it’s priceless because to secular Americans it’s great literature and to evangelicals it’s the inspired Word of God.

A lover of literature or a seeker of truth doesn’t’ need to fork over $1000, $59.99 or even three bucks for a Bible, there are many Christian ministries that provide free copies.

If Trump really cared about evangelical’s desire to spread the Gospel, he would distribute Bibles free of charge.

The Orange Shepherd doesn’t see his MAGA evangelical base as sheep to protect and enlighten, but as rubes ready for fleecing.

The “God Bless the USA” Bibles should be renamed “God Bless China” Bibles, destroyed through a process called pulping and repurposed as “Harris for President” signs.

White Evangelicals Brand Kamala Harris a ‘Jezebel’

Ever since Kamala Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee, white evangelical leaders have thundered from the pulpit that she’s a Jezebel who’s in league with the devil. With the election less than a month away, they have doubled down on their vile religious rhetoric, painting her as an emissary of the devil.

“Jezebel” is the go-to word for evangelicals for any woman who is confident in her sexuality, embraces her inherent strength, doesn’t reflexively defer to men, especially if she is a liberal woman of color.

Harris is white evangelicals’ worst nightmare: a female presidential candidate with the experience, wisdom, courage and potential to become a great president.

They’re cognizant that Trump is no match for her intellectually or ethically, and so they try to build up their authoritarian monster by demonizing Harris.

They are oblivious to the irony that it’s Trump who is evil incarnate, and that he’s the male equivalent of a Jezebel.

I’m convinced that the spirt of secularism, democracy and truth will prevail over the spirit of Jezebel that is alive and well in Trump’s Republican Party.

Elon Musk is the Cringiest Trump Supporter

Donald Trump’s superpower is the ability to make even the most powerful politicians, celebrities, preachers, and business moguls prostate themselves in front of him in exhibitions of subservience and servility.

The latest wanker to make an ass out of himself is Elon Musk, the wealthiest man in the world. After the orange buffoon introduced Musk to the stage in his triumphant return to Butler, PA, the tech mogul jumped in the air several times like a 1st grader who just got a puppy for Christmas.

Musk who wore a black MAGA cap and was dressed all in black, christened himself “Dark MAGA.” Musk was pointing out the obvious, we are well aware that MAGA is a dark movement that will drag us back to the Dark Ages if the chaos agent-in-chief returns to the White House.

Even the Dear Leader was repulsed by Musk’s cringy theatrics, he gave him a JD Vance style side-eye.

Ron Filipkowski, a frequent Trump critic, wrote above a clip of Space Karen jumping on stage: “This might be the cringiest shit I’ve ever seen in politics.”  No shit!

After watching Musk make a spectacle of himself, I wanted to pluck out my eyes and roast them in an open fire.

Melania Trump Defends Abortion in Her Memoir

Donald Trump, the nominee of the party of family values, lives in his palatial estate Mar-a-Lago, that’s adjacent to one of his golf clubs. His trophy wife, Melania, lives in New York, so she can be close to the love of her life, her son Barron, who attends New York University.

Melania has been MIA from the Trump campaign, she’s yet to make a single campaign appearance with her husband. She assiduously avoids making any public appearances with her spouse, even failing to provide moral support by attending any of his court trials.

The spouses of political candidates stand by their partners, nod in agreement while they deliver their campaign speeches and sometimes make short remarks that are in perfect alignment with them.

Melania shocked the MAGA supporters of her husband by declaring herself pro-choice.

In an excerpt of her new self-titled memoir, she (or rather her ghostwriter) wrote:

“Restricting a woman’s right to choose whether to terminate an unwanted pregnancy is the same as denying her control over her own body. I have carried this belief with me throughout my entire adult life.”

This pro-choice stance clashes violently with the views of her husband’s white evangelical supporters. Trump pandered to his evangelical followers by appointing vehemently anti-abortion judges to the Supreme Court.

Likely Trump shares the pro-choice position of his wife, but he pretends to be anti-abortion out of political expediency. But he must be furious at his wife for expressing her views on abortion just a month before the election. Who would have thunk that Melania was responsible for the October surprise that derailed his campaign.

Melania must really hate the orange buffoon as much as I do.

JD Vance’s Eyeliner-Enhanced Side Eye Stole the Spotlight at Vice-Presidential Debate

In the Vice-Presidential debate, the young, handsome and glib JD Vance faced off against the elderly, homely and homespun speaker Tim Walz.

The debate was surprisingly civil, polite and devoid of any theatrics, histrionics and rehearsed zingers.

Vance, the Yale Law School graduate who answers questions from the press at every campaign event, had the edge given his experience interacting with the press and his innate ability to lie effortlessly.

The focus of the debate wasn’t policy arguments, gaffes or the role of the moderators, JD Vance’s wicked eyeliner stole the spotlight.

Allow me to digress by pointing out that I don’t think it’s wrong for a politician, or any gentleman, to wear eyeliner, a wig or even a dress. However, it’s very hypocritical for a campaign that demonizes the LGBT community and vilifies drag queens to choose a male vice-presidential candidate with a penchant for allegedly using eyeliner and a history of dressing in drag in college.

Walz was nervous and tentative at first, but his confidence and debating skills improved and all things considered he did yeoman’s work.

In my humble opinion Walz narrowly edged Vance, I give him the win because he survived Vance’s withering eyeliner-enhanced side eye that he employed throughout the debate.

MAGA Cultists Claim 43-foot Naked Statue of Trump is Deplorable

“Conservatives have decried a 43-foot-tall nude effigy of Donald Trump that was erected over the weekend on Interstate 15, near Las Vegas.

An anonymous spokesperson for the unnamed artist told Las Vegas’ News 3 the massive sculpture, called ‘Crooked and Obscene,’ weighs 6,000 pounds and is made of foam and rebar.”

Newsweek

Donald Trump is a bigger than life celebrity cum politician, with a penchant for over-the-top publicity stunts and inflammatory rhetoric. To capture his essence a painter must paint in broad strokes and a sculptor must use tons of material.

The 43-foot-effigy of Trump perfectly embodies his gargantuan ego and his outsized influence on politics and culture at large.

Almost everything about the statue is huge, from his bulging belly to his planet-sized head, although you may need binoculars to see his doll size hands and his tiny penis.

Is the work of art in poor taste? Duh! Of course, that’s the point, Trump is the epitome of bad taste. Actually, the anonymous artist showed a remarkable amount of restraint; I would have simply dumped a ton of bullshit, and christened my work of art: Bullshit, the sweet smell of Trump.

MAGA cultists who have their panties in a twist over this sensational work of art have things ass backwards. They shouldn’t be offended by the statue, but what it represents: the steaming pile of human shit known as Donald Trump.
