There’s nothing normal about any of this. Normal went out the window when Trump descended that damned escalator close to ten years ago now.
He was out of office for four years, but no one would have known that, thanks to a compliant media hungry for ratings, covering Trump’s made-for-TV life. He’s a manipulative media whore, addicted to attention, needy, getting older and less stable by the minute.
He’s being marginalized by Elon Musk and the graveyard full of Heritage Foundation stooges who seem not to have a problem with hastening America’s decay. Trump won’t stand for this. He’ll find a way to elbow his way back into the limelight, so we best be prepared for the next bizarre EO or boneheaded proclamation.
Jumping ahead, is anyone else curious about what we’ll actually be celebrating by the time our 250th rolls around next year? Donald and the rest will do a stellar job with that, too. It’ll be some sort of flag-waving extravaganza, I’m sure.
