Trump Derangement Syndrome Tag

I watched the Trump-Putin press conference on Monday morning, then spent almost 8 hours in the car with only terrestrial news radio, when available. When I finally arrived and had a chance to catch up on Twitter and replays of cable news, it was obvious that I re-entered a world divorced from the reality that most people hear, which is short news bites while going about their lives.

The left and Resistance lost their minds when President Donald Trump had the nerve to say that because of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline "Germany is captive of Russia ". Former Secretary of State John Kerry lashed out at Trump for his "disgraceful" comments. Weird...only two years ago, Kerry expressed concern over this exact same pipeline as he sat with high-level European Union officials! Former Vice President Joe Biden made similar remarks around the same time.

Stay classy, leftists! Philippe Reines, a former top aide to failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, tweeted out the contact information of the Black Swan bookstore in Richmond, VA. The owner, Nick Cooke, had the audacity to call the police when a woman harassed President Donald Trump's former advisor Steve Bannon and called him a "piece of trash."

A 75-year-old man has been arrested for threatening to kill President Trump supporters, including those of GOP Congressman Lee Zeldin (R-NY). The man, Martin Astrof, showed up at Zeldin's campaign headquarters in Long Island and threatened to kill a volunteer there as well as other supporters of Trump and Zeldin before nearly hitting the volunteer with his car.

A 16 year old boy was getting a bite to eat with friends at a hamburger restaurant in San Antonio, Texas this week, when a man approached their table, ripped the 'Make America Great Again' hat off his head, and threw a large cup of soda in his face. The man then proudly strode away with the hat.

I keep thinking there will come a point when the public realizes turning politics into a religion is not just unfruitful, but potentially personally devastating. Politics and politicians are fickle and will always fail you given the opportunity. But, we're not there yet. Bridgid Delaney quit going to the gym when Trump won the 2016 election. The owner of the gym Delaney once frequented and Delaney entered into a pre-election bet, if Trump one, Delaney would have to pull 70kg on a "sled" machine. If Hillary won, the gym owner would have to pull double his personal best.

Federal authorities have located and arrested a California man suspected of threatening to kill FCC Chairman Ajit Pai's children. He faces a maximum of 10 years in the federal slammer. He "is charged with a threatening to murder a member of the immediate family of a U.S. official with the intent to intimidate or interfere with such official while engaged in the performance of official duties, or with the intent to retaliate against such official on account of the performance of official duties," says the Department of Justice. According to a Department of Justice press release, the man was upset about the repeal of net neutrality and was trying to frighten Pai in retaliation.
