Last updated on: September 21, 2016 at 2:49 pm By Frank Schaeffer

(Photo YouTube) U2 lead singer Bono appeared on “CBS This Morning” to discuss a bunch of topics with co-host Charlie Rose, and inevitably, Donald Trump came up. Bono, who’s never shied away from sharing his thoughts on politics suggested that the GOP contender for president, if elected, could devastate the country. “America is like the best idea the world ever came up with,” the vocalist said. “But Donald Trump is potentially the worst idea that ever happened to America.

an open letter to millennials about this election from an old guy who actually likes you

Last updated on: September 21, 2016 at 5:21 am By Frank Schaeffer

You are a betrayed generation. Frivolous divorce rocked your world as too many parents gave up on themselves and you. Your family may have been stable but too many weren’t. Too many people were deprived of happiness found in unconditional love. Instead of education that deepens the soul you were herded into crap schools that are designed to turn out workers for corporations not complete people and open doors. You’ve been lied to. Life is not about career success... Read more

Actual Criminality? Who cares. Trump Supporters Would Support Him if he Raped Children… They Want Their Fascist White Supremacist No Matter What. Period. Here’s Proof.

(Photo YouTube) How many things should have already totally disqualified Trump? Never mind, here’s one more. As noted by Alan Smith of Business Insider, the Washington Post’s David Fahrenthold just published a series of stunning revelations about Donald Trump‘s “charitable foundation,” reporting that Trump used foundation money to finance various legal fees. By the way this is a crime. Trump had not made a single donation to his charity since 2008, and used money from others in such instances, the... Read more

IF TRUMP WINS THIS WILL BE THE EVERYDAY NEW “NORMAL”

Last updated on: September 24, 2016 at 4:23 am By Frank Schaeffer

(YouTube) moments later Eric Garner would be dead… There are good cops, many in fact most. But there is no way to duck the reality that black men and women in America rightly feel threatened every time a black man or woman is killed by a cop for little to no reason. If Trump wins, these aberrations will become the norm. Trump’s racist idea of “law and order” will empower brutality. Just wait for the Trump roundups of “illegals.” WATCH... Read more

DID NYC TERROR EXPLODE TO HELP TRUMP? HE IS THE CANDIDATE ISLAMIC EXTREMISTS SUPPORT. ISIS IS ROOTING FOR TRUMP. WAS NYC THEIR GIFT TO THE CANDIDATE THEY FAVOR?

Last updated on: September 19, 2016 at 9:59 am By Frank Schaeffer

IS THIS MAN… …WORKING TO GET THIS MAN ELECTED? In August, one ISIS spokesman wrote: “I ask Allah to deliver America to Trump.” Yes, Trump wants terror. Period. He thinks it will help him win. If it does it proves the American people are as stupid as he hopes we are. Trump patted himself on the back Monday morning for calling the weekend attack in Manhattan a “bombing” before officials did. “What I said was exactly correct,” Trump bragged in... Read more

TURNS OUT TRUMP IS A WELFARE QUEEN LIKE NO OTHER– BUT HE USED HIS VERSION OF FOOD STAMPS TO BUY GOLD FAUCETS

Last updated on: September 17, 2016 at 2:13 pm By Frank Schaeffer

(Photo YouTube) “[Trump’s] whole MO is to exploit the government for everything he could get,” said Jerilyn Perine, the city housing commissioner during the Giuliani and Bloomberg administrations. Trump “started” his business with millions from his dad. Then he expanded it on the backs of the working taxpayers of New York. Turns out Trump is the biggest welfare queen of all time.

A MUSIC CRITIC DID MORE RESEARCH ON TWITTER (WAITING FOR HIS KID TO COME HOME FROM A PLAYDATE) THAN THE POLITICAL/FINANCIAL PRO REPORTERS DO ON TRUMP– WHAT THE F#!K!

Last updated on: September 17, 2016 at 12:38 pm By Frank Schaeffer

This guy did more for actual journalistic investigation on Twitter than any TV network has done so far to expose some hard facts about the Trump lifetime scam. Read this then ask “Where the fuck are the ‘real journalists’ if this music critic can find all this?” Oh I know where they are, they are covering the Trump show as entertainment to boost ratings. And on such careless stupidity we slide into the grip of a fascist con artist… and... Read more
