Trump wouldn't understand the word "projection" unless it was his image on a screen.

Maybe some brave staffer, at the risk of being fired, could do a cartoon drawing, with crayons, to explain the ol' "I'm rubber, you're glue" political warfare game. And slip the drawing over the transom.

DANNI

Without fail, like it's been pre-programed into his brain at birth, Trump automatically projects his own shortcomings and failings onto whoever he's badmouthing at the moment.

And the weird part is, he doesn't seem to be aware of it.

I checked our local recruiting office. There were no lines.

Sorry Pete, bad idea. On the bright side, there's still Happy Hour.

If we say something snarky about Trump's bald spot showing through his thinning egotistical combover, is that hate speech?

Is the truth hate speech?

Is the Drudge Retort "the media?"

I take his use of the word "illegal" means he's already told A.G. Bondi to start drawing up a more narrow new line between free and hate so it will fit Trump's definition of "hate" that his attorneys can argue vigorously in court ~ with proof provided by the DOJ so it doesn't appear personal.

Trump is sneaky. He's using the government to do his dirty work.

Just another one of Trump's many, many insecurities.

Nothing is ever his fault

Disorganized"

Yes, on purpose.

I remember when he used to create chaos among his own staff because he thought it kept them on their toes. Now he's expanded that same meme to creating chaos all over the world because it makes him feel important while he sits back and watches like he's a spectator at a dog fight.

Everything Trump does is for himself and nobody else. It's how he gets his jollies.

And to quote his niece, Mary Trump, about Trump's insecurity, "Too Much and Never Enough."

"Putin let me down"

My guess is that Mr. Putin could say the same thing about Trump.

Trump has spent four of his nearly six years in office trying to set himself up as the Imperial Emperor of the World, or at least most of it. In a nutshell, I suppose Putin just got tired of waiting.

Neither one of them are getting any younger and time is their enemy. Moreso for Trump as angry people keep testing the second amendment solution.

Big Bad Wolf: "The better to eat you with, my dear."

BBQ

If all those names are exposed, bye bye campaign donors. They'll have other things occupying their time and money.

Such as divorce court, ya think?

I've wondered that same thing about Ken Paxton's wife in Texas claiming biblical grounds.

Or, son caught with hand in the cookie jar. "Honestly, Mom, I wasn't taking it out. I was putting it back in."

How often did Trump dunk his dicky I wonder?

And since it's always tit-for-tat with Republicans, what outlandish, self-serving reward is he demanding for these names?

CORIOLANUS

I wasn't exactly thinking of it in those terms, but I guess if the sexually abused minor females were "rented out," for sex that could be a form of slavery. Epstein did keep a stable of girls for just that purpose even if they weren't physically held in chains.

Not that it matters now. Epstein is already paying his dues in purgatory.

Here's my question:

Did Trump take out his 10% ownership in Epstein's enterprise in trade?

That's what it's all boiling down to, isn't it?

A better question might be, when is his staff going to hide him in an undisclosed location strapped to a gurney while they prep his body double for a limited, very brief, schedule of appearance, preferably from a blurred distance?
