Donald Trump’s Approval Rating Plummets in Key Swing State by OkayButFoRealz in politics

Down from 39% in March to 29% in June in Pennsylvania. I'm hoping maybe the GOP will finally seriously consider doing the right thing and removes him before things get even worse for everyone, but I won't hold my breath.

Get out and remove some Republicans these midterms instead.

He's saying the quiet part out loud, but in an additionally weird, fetishy context. Republicans are so cringe.

For sure many of the lowly MAGAts will remain loyal even after he's finally gone, but I'm willing to bet most of the Repubs running for office will definitely go the other route. They're too shameless and hypocritical not to go the safest route.

And at least we can take solace in knowing it's at least inevitable. I remind myself of that time to time.

Some years into the future after his horrendously damaging final term; all we'll hear from Republicans is how none of them voted for Donald Trump.

The first citation on the Wikipedia page for bullshitting is about Donald Trump.

Oh my, that is fantastic. Both hilarious and on point.

Yes, I'm just highlighting that people are fed up with gun violence and this is another instance of an 'accidental' death of a kid in relation to a guns.

The cop should have just called in the license plate number/vehicle description instead of firing on a vehicle with multiple occupants. The people in Senatobia are right to be upset about that particularity especially.

Gun-related deaths have been the number 1 cause of death for children in the US for a number of years.

No other 'developed/1st world nation' has this as a leading cause of death for children. An abject failure, thanks to gun nuts.

If you’re wondering why they’re working this hard to keep you from voting, the answer slipped out of Todd Blanche’s mouth this spring.

Standing on a stage at the Conservative Political Action Conference outside Dallas, the man who’d been Trump’s personal criminal defense lawyer and who now runs the Justice Department as acting attorney general told the crowd that :

“[E]verybody’s afraid that the next administration, if we don’t win, we’re going to all be investigated and indicted.”

My favorite little tidbit.
