It’s a stain on American journalism that major media refuse to warn the public that the president is out of his mind.
Trump: "So I'm studying him. And I made the mistake of saying that I started off by studying his ass. I just wantasink. And then I looked at his feet & they were massive.

You cannot get anything done while the fascists are in power and free. So use all the energy you can to expose their crimes and set the stage to lock them up. A former prosecutor of all people should understand that, rather than this Kumbaya bullshit.
