https://www.rawstory.com/2020/07/trump-blasted-as-weak-and-small-man-after-calling-veterans-anarchists-who-hate-our-country/President Donald Trump is desperately trying to create a fight between federal agents dressed as American soldiers and protesters in many cities in the United States.
In Portland, in particular, a group of veterans and a group of moms and leaf-blowing dads helped work as protectors of the protesters. It created a PR disaster for the president, but he has doubled down, calling veterans anarchists against our country and the wall of moms a scam.
It infuriated those online who couldnt believe Trump would attack mothers or veterans publicly, particularly with just 100 days until the election.

(6,265 posts)because they are men and woman that, in spite of the politics, stood up for their country, while bone spur the coward didn't. And when it comes to moms, well thanks to trumps' niece, we all know now he has serious mommy issues and hateful disrespectful misogynist issues.

(6,448 posts)And he's trying to lose the EC this time. The popular vote is a done deal.
Somewhere between Nov. 4 and Jan. 20, he'll set fire to the White House to destroy all evidence. His Cabinet will do the same to their respective buildings.
America will have to start from scratch anyway.

As much Trump as you can handle
Five identical statues of a nude Donald Trump have appeared overnight on street corners in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Cleveland, Seattle, and New York City. So, The Verge ran down to Union Square in NYC to see as much of fake nude Trump as our eyes could possibly tolerate (photos below!).
The Washington Post reports that the anarchist collective INDECLINE is responsible for the statues, and are calling this project "The Emperor Has No Balls." The name is ostensibly a reference to the famous fairytale "The Emperors New Clothes," in which a narcissistic emperor gets conned into strolling amongst his people in the nude. Mr. Robot fans might liken the stunt to the one pulled by the shows anti-capitalist fsociety, who symbolically removed the testicles from the iconic Wall Street bull statue.
