After Colin Mochrie pointed out that “Lord Dampnut” was an anagram of Donald Trump, inquiring minds wanted to know: What else can be made from the name?
Well, there’s
I’m always here to help.
For years, the policy of the United States was to separate the radical terrorists now known as ISIS from Muslims.
After all, there are about 1.6 billion Muslims in the world — 23% of the global population — and ISIS represents a very small percentage of them, in the same way the KKK represents a very small percentage of Christians.
And who does ISIS fight? Quite often, it’s other Muslims. (In the same way the Muslim Syrian refugees are running away from other Muslims.) 
Obama refused to call these terrorists Muslims because not only is that an inaccurate and misleading description, but also because it hurts their cause.
Remember: ISIS wants us to call them Muslims, and wants us to hate all Muslims, because that helps them recruit new members and build their organization. They can then claim that the United States is at war with Islam (instead of with ISIS) and therefore, all Muslims must join in the fight.
Smart Presidents know that. Obama knew that. Even George W. Bush knew that.
So when you see pictures of ISIS cheering and laughing, remember: They couldn’t be happier with Trump. He’s doing exactly what they want him to do.
Let’s face it, a majority of Americans didn’t want Trump, don’t agree with the Republican platform, and hope that he’ll fail in his goals. More importantly, they don’t believe the lies coming out of the White House.
For the GOP to pretend otherwise is not surprising of course, since they are the party of “Alternative Facts” and fake news.
The newest PPP Poll shows this clearly. In every single matter, Trump loses. Seriously, the public is not on his side about anything.
He starts off with the lowest approval rating of any newly elected President ever (since they started doing these polls). The majority of respondents think he’ll be a worse President than any we’ve had since Nixon.
Only 18% believe Trump when he falsely claimed that his inauguration crowds were bigger than the Women’s March a day later. 17% believed the fake news claim that George Soros paid these people to march. (Hey, I know a lot of marchers who would be upset to learn this, because they didn’t get a cent.)
59% want to see Trump’s tax returns, with 54% supporting a law requiring all candidates to release their returns. 61% want him to completely divest himself from all his business interests.
When it comes to whether they trust Trump, respondents chose the intelligence agencies, CNN and even The Today Show over our “President.” Sean Spicer and Kellyanne Conway scored even lower, if you can believe that.
Vladimir Putin, by the way, has a 67% unpopularity rating with only 10% saying they have a favorable opinion of him. Russia itself has only a 13% approval rating. Just saying.
Only 34% want to see the wall built. Only 30% want to repeal Obamacare completely, with a plurality supporting it.
Of course, Republicans will once again attack the messenger and claim that the highly respected PPP poll is biased or something. This is to be expected. Ignore them as you do any other time.
Yeah, we’ve been through worse. We had a civil war and survived. But just seeing what Trump has done to our great country already has depressed me to the point where I just don’t even feel like thinking about it, much less writing about it on my blog.
So there hasn’t been an update in a while. 
The good news is that the Republican establishment doesn’t like Trump either. All we need are a few Republicans to vote for impeachment — there are plenty of grounds, especially if they use their power to subpoena his income tax returns — and he can be removed.
We end up with Pence, but at least he is competent. I think.
I can imagine Ryan encouraging an impeachment, thus placing Pence in power. Oh, look, now there’s an opening for Vice President. Speaker Ryan, are you available?
Will this happen? Not sure. But I can pretty much bet that it has at least been discussed in Republican circles.
2008:
We are the Republican party. We proudly stand for:
2016:
Just kidding!
