Be sure to watch all 8 mins of Trump declaring war. In his oversized ball cap and his obvious exhaustion,does he look even remotely ‘normal’?

Or the federal bureaucracy or state governments or trends in society or the deaths of important individuals or a zillion other things that serious newspapers covered.

White House reporters: Please ask Trump why anyone should pay attention to his Truths if, as we’re now told, aides are free to post in his name at all hours?

Are we back in TACO land?

But boy is it revealing. Only an emotionally crippled man could propose a new world order in which he personally remains in charge forever. Yikes.

I urge my fellow citizens to take the time to read the entire transcript of our president’s interview with The NY Times. Then, please, recommend to your friends and relations. We are being “lead” by a man of painfully low intelligence and gaping insecurities. We’re in big trouble.

Why isn’t the NY Times publishing the transcript of their reporters’ long interview with Trump?

Trump did not grow up in the “New Deal era.” Truman was president when he was born. If in fact he did grow up (debatable), it was in the Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson years, no? Professor?

Would it make sense to just boycott the Kennedy Center until its proper name is fully restored?

Worth noting that to this day the major American media have shied away from confronting Trump’s malignant narcissism as Conway did in this brilliant piece

Hey everyone! These are real numbers. Please pay attention. In 2025 Dems are winning everything.

It confirms that the 28-point Ukraine peace plan was largely a Kremlin product.

Just got home from the NYC No Kings event, which I attended out of curiosity to see what Antifa people on the take from Soros look like. Many of the men resemble Speaker Johnson! Very sneaky.

Jake is it time to drop the word “fun” when discussing this time of grave constitutional crisis?

Does anyone in his immediate circle tell our Secretary of War how utterly ridiculous he looks to millions of serious Americans? Have we ever had such a buffoon in a sensitive cabinet position before?

How about the Commander in Chief? Our current one is obese—our fattest president since William Howard Taft. Is he going to be taking those fitness tests too?

Why are Krugman’s answers “amazing?” Might the truly amazing thing be that apparently smart people can wallow for hours in the endless stream of crud produced by the social media?

Here it is, folks: corruption in its purest form. Our government is a criminal enterprise. Congratulations America!
