Quotations From & About
Donald J. Trump

Donald Trump is not the President of the United States, he thinks that he is playing one on television. Here are stimulating and horrifying quotations from Donald J. Trump and quotations of others about him, not to honor him, but to record the sheer idiocy of Donald Trump's endless spew of garbage into the mindless 24-hour news cycle. Twitter is complicit because they have not shut down or muffled Trump. The Fox Propaganda Machine is complicit on purpose, and everyone who watches Fox Faux News is complicit by their constant choosing to be willfully ignorant.      Jon McNaughton's 2018 painting 'Crossing The Swamp'
