Trump is so unhinged that I am now looking at posts from the speaker of the Iranian Parliament and thinking, "He is not wrong".

After The United States has carried out 47 boat strikes in Latin America and killed at least 163 sailors, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio now sits on Fox News talking about Iran violating international laws for marine traffic.

These past 11 months have been easily the most miserable era in America in my lifetime.
The hatred, the bigotry, the lies, the racketeering and pedophilia are beyond anything I have ever seen.

When politicians do the exact opposite of what they promised in the election campaign, you know creative explanations are coming.

Here is what Republicans came up with — and yes, this is real:
