Donald Trump lost it on the federal judge opposed to the government’s work to improve a public golf course in Washington, D.C., in a social media screed early Monday morning, saying his administration has an “absolute right” to perform the work. In a Truth Social post before dawn, Trump attacked U.S. District Judge Ana C. Reyes, a day after he unveiled his plans to close the public East Potomac Golf Course for 15 months to construct “one of the Best and Most Spectacular Golf Courses anywhere in the World.” |

Yeah, he wants to privatize it, give contracts and future control to himself and buddies, and he wants to name it after himself, I guarantee it. If I’m not mistaken this wasn’t just a public course, it was a low cost public course - he can’t stand the idea of regular and poor people benfiting from government services or being on golf courses. |

Why the fuck is it normal now for a president to just flat out lie loudly about everyone he disagrees with? Republicans not denouncing him constantly ensures their place in history as complacent Nazis |

Ok, so Trump's brain may be pudding, but one thing I can guarantee is that the thing about "tapes" didn't come out of nowhere. He's simply not creative enough to make shit up like that. Someone must have told him they feel there is something actionable in the court transcripts. In a few weeks we're going to see Republicans complaining about something in the transcript that they can use as a bullshit technical point to blow the whole ruling up. Remember when he went on and on about Fani Willis's "boyfriend", and we all thought he was nuts, then they used it to scuttle that investigation? A key part of Trumpism is taking advantage of the fact that he is allowed to lie and cheat with impunity, while even an appearance of anything untoward by people working against him is routinely used to Trump's advantage. |

JFC, donnie dickweed here apparently doesn't have anything better to do, I guess. No other problems, I guess. No, he has to focus on what really matters to the American people - monuments to himself, golden ballrooms, golf course work, and of course "men in women's sports". He behaving almost like a stereotypical Faux News watcher who is in a memory ward, except for they voted him into the WH. Everything is crazy expensive, he's losing the war in Iran that he started, and it's widening in the Middle East while he's helping Russia attack Ukraine. |

As the administration has decided to ignore all court orders they don't like, what's the point if a legal system in the US, anyway? |

I am of the opinion that the pee tapes are not real. But, the Russian disinformation machine is doing its best to spread the rumor that they are. What better way to feed into one man's paranoid delusions than to manufacture a scenario that he knows is fake? That just makes him double down on being defiant, and not trusting anyone. |

And with a lot of public parkland around it. The plans show the removal of Ohio Drive, a very poplar biking/jogging/walking route. Can’t have non-rich people anywhere near his precious…balls. |

Well yeah, as Trump's mind dissolves he will start forgetting anything that happened in the past 40 years or so. But he remembers porn on Betamax, at least. |

Once upon a time (e.g. Nixon), they pretended so that they could remain morally superior. Now, they stopped trying to maintain the lie. |

100%. If you won't punish the fascists giving the illegal orders, at least punish the foot soldiers carrying out the illegal orders to deter the illegal execution of these illegal orders. |

It wouldn't matter. Trump cannot be blackmailed. He would claim it was a deepfake and his followers would believe it without question. He is apparently also above the law in the US. He is aware of both of these things. He cannot be blackmailed. |

He wants to remodel it because his brain is Swiss cheese and all he wants is to force his "tasteful redecorating" on the world. I honestly think if you gave him a phone with decorating games on it, he'd be subdued. |

Yep. I kinda miss them pretending honestly. Even if it's pretending, it sort of holds flood gates closed in a sense. I think we can definitely expect more openly corrupt politicians across the spectrum moving forward. |
