The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

“I don't know that he's going to handle the midterms well. And if they go the direction seems like they're going, he's going to get what Obama said years ago, a shellacking. I think this will be a shellacking to an even higher degree, because folks are tired of the chaos, cruelty and corruption.”

Canada stands with Brazil. There will be a growing alliance between Canada and Brazil. The response from MAGA is the language of violence and threat. "The time has come for the wicked and cowardly to meet their rewards." Unhinged nutbars.

Reminder: Trump raised tariffs on Brazil, pushing them to release Jair Bolsonaro, a fellow insurrectionist. Both Zuck and Musk titled the scales on their platforms to favor Jair’s son. So yeah, Trump and the Broligarchs were on the ballot. …and the Brazilian people told them to go to hell.
