Everything he does is destructive. Everything. Even those things that pretend to have a veneer of creativity are destructive, like the ballroom and this monstrosity. Measure them by what they wreck. He wrecks things unrepentantly. Constantly. apple.news/Axc2pVIfhSuu...
The Kennedy Center has been in continuous operation for 55 years.
Trump and Ric Grenell destroyed it in one year by making it so toxic that nobody will perform there.
Now they have to shut it down like a Trump casino.
Damn proud of Minnesota.
Biden has one bad debate and heβs out. Now we get a recurring stream of demented, embarrassing nonsense, andβ¦three more years? God help us.
Very fun that everyone who panicked about Biden's mental acuity is willing to sit through this endless national humiliation ritual.
Whatβs unacceptable is him.
Possible?
1. He realizes what will likely occur if he completes his term.
2. He is removed from office, either via the 25th Amendment or conviction.
3. Vance gives him a βfull and unconditionalβ pardon.
4. The SOB walks.
You know what worries me? Letβs say that Trumpβs acts of war are, in part or in total, meant to distract the public and the media from his ever-growing problems with the Epstein files and Jack Smithβs deposition. Letβs say these problems just continue to grow. Whatβs to prevent him from using nukes?
EVIL.
Then again, with the SCOTUS rubber stamping so many power grabs by the president , this idea of mine night not work so well.
Hear me outβIβm thinking that maybe the best we can get is to let him finish his term. If he dies in office, heβll get too many honors, and JD will become president. If heβs impeached and removed from office, JD will become president. But if thereβs a midterm blue wave, heβll be a truly lame duck.
East Wing demolition
Think he will get the tacky ballroom built? Maybe. But I think this is basically another example of his overriding policy of wrecking stuff.
For pretty much the first time since the passing of Frank OβBannon, Iβm proud of my present home state. apple.news/AZD2Vye40Qgq...

I doubt he even needs to do that. #depends
Racism is what this is.

Iβm hoping that what appears to be a Democratic cave-in will have a silver lining when Representative-Elect Grijalva is sworn in.

These are fun π
Republicans canβt win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.
