Sociopaths sleep perfectly well at night because they have no conscience. They thrive on controlling others and in watching them suffer. Trump sleeps like a baby.

The rest of the Democrats should have joined Al Green in his protest. Really show Trump, his minions and the country that they know he is evil and everything he says is bullshit.

Damn Rick, Kinda scary the way you 'channel' him - Nappy Krasnov that is. Good job, absolutely nailed it, tho. But, whiter than a Klan rally in Dicksniff, Mississippi...that's crazy good...my Grammarly spell check kept wanting to make Dicksniff 2 words - Dick Sniff.

Seriously, your post may be satire but it's damn close to the truth...that is, what that narcissistic sociopath is really thinking.

Thanks for your words.

Honestly, what decent intelligent person didn’t see this coming? After all we’ve witnessed with this putrid poser and his ghoulish entourage for so many years. Get real. This is the beginning of the Great Unraveling.

Brilliant, hilarious, and both at the same time! I've got Colbert's Trump voice stuck in my head (brain worm?) and reading your marvelous piece in that voice made my night, and, again, my day today. Thanks so much, Rick, we need all the humor we can find in these stressful times!

So what’s the plan? You are having no success moving any of the hopelessly gutless and fearful Republicans to the Democrat voting block. At this point there will never be another election in the US. Even if there was it will not be legitimate. Trump lies constantly. As a matter of fact if his mouth is open it is just another nasty lie. He has no difficulty making the now peasants of America poor and miserable. The more he grinds them into the dirt the better they seem to like and worship him, etc., etc. so what’s the plan?

Need to know because he is started full out trade war with Canada today. Even worse he started full out trade war with the people of America while he aligns himself and all his minions with Putin.

It used to be hilarious when the Republicans found dreaded pinkos under every bed. Now they are all snuggled up warm and cozy with the Mother Land.

Again! What’s the plan?

Absolutely brilliant. I laughed throughout so I wouldn't cry.

(Of course, we all know this speech is far too coherent and logical to be a real Trump speech, but the sentiments conveyed are 100% spot-on)

I couldn't watch. The very sight of that man makes me want to smash things like the Hulk. The sound of his voice? Makes me physically ill.

Gotta say, Bernie's response was a lot better than the polite centrist Elissa Slotkin's:
