I laughed my coffee out on Rapey McForehead! But seriously....what a despicable bunch of human filth.

The reality is that Trump probably hired someone to push Ivana down the stairs.

Very convenient to evade testimony... and tax breaks. It all smells just like Trump.

It would be irresponsible not to speculate!

And then had the GALL to bury her on his GOLF COURSE! Like a serial killer collecting a trophy! I mean, "PAH-LEEZE!" or should I say "SLEAZE"!

Remember, Trump has been taught all his life that REVENGE is the pinnacle of power. Just ask Roy Cohn, Joe McCarthy's lieutenant and prime mentor of Trump in his VietNam evasion days.

I don't think so, but the fact that we all entertain the thought speaks volumes.

Anymore, I don't spell out the acronym G.O.P in caps nor when speaking of it. In general, people pronounce acronyms rather than spell them out as in NATO, NASA, AIDS, COVID, AWOL, ad infinitum. So I've begun to do the same with the gop when referring to Republicans. It rhymes with slop or stop. Stop the gop! The gop of 2022 is fascist in nature.

Anybody know the Bedminster club rule for those who land on Ivana's grave? Ground under repair, or play it as it lies?

We'll have to ask the Saudis for the final ruling.

With all of the GOP fuckery coming at us at such an alarming rate, it’s good to see a scorecard of misdeeds and misanthropy all in one place. Thank you Greg! On a somewhat lighter note, I misread “extremist libertarians” as “extremist librarians” then I said “wait, they’re coming after books too.” Extremist librarians after all!

Thanks. This is not by any means an exhaustive list.

It's sort of ironic, I guess, that my mantra and ever-present thoughts for the Republican Party are the same three words: “Fuck you, die.”

And since the news moves so fast, there's already one more thing to add. Trump had the opportunity to take out Ayman al-Zawahiri but didn't recognize his name. Jesus wept.

Oh, wow, I missed that nugget. Good lord.

As bad as all this is, and it's very bad, what I wonder about is what lesson these cretins are teaching as they go about defiling the country in front of their kids. Obviously, it's not honesty and integrity.

After reading this "round-up," Greg, I can see why you need to take a much-needed break. It was bad enough to read in succession; it must have been worse to have written it. Still, thank you for all you do for us.

Yes, they will need A LOT of ancestral healing as their blood lines continue on. And many hours of therapy at some point.

What they teach is, "Since there are no consequences at all for anything, fuck it, just go ahead and get yours." It's disgusting.

Honestly? They feel the wagons are circled. They are panicked by Fox et al. The end of white people is coming. SO. Their only thoughts are to destroy liberals any way they can, and that’s what they teach their spawn. The GOP LOVES THIS.

I loved this! I would call them “fucking assholes” but that’s just me. I do not call them their former acronym either. I now refer to them as the Pro-Rape Party with PRP as the acronym standing for “perp”. There’s plenty of them in that party and they deserve all of the “tom fuckery” coming their way.

I can’t get past that picture of the sad little grave on that sleazy golf course. I used to live across the street from the Fair Grounds Race Course in New Orleans, where two famous race horses are buried. Their graves are in the center of the track with monuments, and no one races or plays golf on top of or anywhere near them.

Agree, Gwen. Not a fitting end for her as near as I can tell. Makes me think what his "memorial" plaque will look like. Will Ivanka et al. go to the depths with neon lights, arrows, and all manner of excess so the public will never forget?

(Nice to hear about those two race horses)

Trump's memorial should just be a huge golden urinal, for obvious reasons.

The racehorses generated more money than Ivana did.

Very very hopeful sign. Can voters make the leap that voting for GOP is the same as voting for choice?
