THE PIT IS BOTTOMLESS — AND HE BROUGHT A SHOVEL.

You know, some people talk about “rock bottom” like it’s a place you eventually hit.

A limit.

A boundary.

A moral guardrail.

But with Donald J. Trump?

Honey, the bottom isn’t just gone — it’s been excavated, bulldozed, and leased out as an underground event venue for hate rallies.

Every week, we find out that the abyss we thought we hit was actually a trapdoor leading to… another abyss. Because Trump doesn’t fall downward; he commutes, like it’s his spiritual home.

And this week?

Oh, he packed a lunch and stayed awhile.

🦃 Thanksgiving: A National Holiday, or Trump’s Private Septic Tank?

For most Americans, Thanksgiving is a time for gratitude, connection, and pretending you don’t hear your uncle’s politics.

But not Trump.

No, for him it was a 24-hour rage buffet, where he served up cruelty like it was cranberry sauce and spite like it was stuffing.

While the rest of the country practiced gratitude, Trump was spewing bile with the enthusiasm of a man who thinks dignity is optional and shame is a liberal conspiracy.p

🧂 THE WALZ MELTDOWN: Hate Speech in Grandpa Font

This week’s highlight?

His glorious decision to sling a slur at Minnesota Governor Tim Walz — not just an insult, but one dipped in decades of cruelty and shaped specifically to punch down at disabled Americans.

He didn’t “misspeak.”

He didn’t have a “late-night lapse.”

He didn’t get “carried away.”

This was intentional.

Eager.

Practiced.

It was the rhetorical equivalent of throwing a brick through the country’s living-room window at 2 A.M. on Thanksgiving night.

This man’s soul is a basement apartment with a flickering lightbulb and a carpet stain you absolutely cannot identify.

✍️ THE AUTOPEN APOCALYPSE: Constitutional Law by Sippy Cup

Then came the autopen tantrum.

Trump announced that any document signed with an autopen by President Biden was “INVALID.”

Canceled.

Null and void.

Poof.

This is not governance.

This isn’t even Fox News logic.

This is “a toddler in time-out scribbled on the wall with a crayon” energy.

Every modern president has used an autopen.

Even Trump.

But suddenly it’s illegal? Fraudulent? Grounds for impeachment

No.

This is what happens when a deeply insecure man discovers the government kept functioning without him and flies into a jealousy spiral so intense it needs electrolytes.

💃 THE MAR-A-LAGO MACABRE: Dancing While Families Grieve

And then there was the dancing.

Yes. The dancing.

Picture it:

Families are mourning a National Guard soldier.

A state is grieving.

America is hurting.

And in Florida, under chandeliers the size of a modest home, Trump is boogying like a man who’s never had a feeling other than “hungry” or “furious.”

There he was — glowing like discount ham left under heat lamps too long — flapping around the dance floor as if rhythm were a Deep State plot.

Former presidents comforted troops and families.

Trump?

He does a victory shimmy while tragedy unfolds.

It wasn’t tone-deaf.

It was moral necrosis with a soundtrack.

Selective Outrage: His Favorite Mental Gymnastics Routine

When violence is committed by someone who fits his preferred demographic, Trump turns into a contemplative monk of silence.

But if the perpetrator is a refugee, an immigrant, a Muslim, a Somali, a Black American, a community he can fearmonger about?

Suddenly he’s Paul Revere on a bullhorn screaming about “dangerous people.”

Hypocrisy isn’t a glitch in Trumpworld.

It’s the operating system.

Cruelty is never about principle.

It’s about who he can use as kindling.

🕳️ THE UNPLUMBED DEPTHS OF TRUMPISM

Let’s just say it plainly:

Donald Trump is a man of unlimited awfulness.

The human embodiment of a gas leak — invisible, dangerous, and the cause of every headache in the room.

His track record this week:

  • Slur disabled Americans
  • Smear refugees
  • Declare legal documents “illegal”
  • Threaten autocratic power grabs
  • Dance while families mourn
  • And lie about… well, everything, including things he clearly doesn’t understand

This is not a decline.

This is the man.

There is no bottom because he never brought one with him.

Trump is not slipping into authoritarianism.

He’s sprinting toward it with his tie flapping behind him like a warning flag.

🌄 AND YET — WE ARE STILL HERE

Here’s the thing they can’t stand:

We see him.

We name it.

We refuse to normalize it.

He rages.

He blusters.

He threatens.

He insults.

He rots in public.

But we do not bow.

America has outlasted tyrants, crooks, demagogues, and wannabe dictators.

We will outlast this one too.

And when history writes its final paragraph about Donald Trump, it won’t cast him as a titan or a statesman.

It will remember him as:

A small man with a loud voice, who mistook cruelty for power, and never realized he was sinking because he was always digging.
