What a useless prick. While many indicators trend poorly, he’s worried about his image, he’s pissed at someone about a picture or a magazine cover or a derogatory comment. He’s such a weakling, his priorities are so skewed that he worries more about his damned ballroom than about any relevant indicator of health or sickness in this country. A robust DJIA will only get him so far.
He’s got an administration full of whack jobs and lightweights, all beholden to him (imagine that—this time around, the main quality he looked for in filling positions was loyalty to him!). Nobody offers reality checks or speaks truth to him. They just burrow further up his ass.
Looking at the headlines this morning, it’s apparent that a storm is coming, and it’s coming for every sector of our economy, every aspect of our life together. Nothing is going to be left unscathed by the total failure of the Trump administration to take its job seriously.
The sham passing as strategy is obviously to portray the current shutdown as the Democrats’ fault, which is the furthest thing from the truth. No doubt, it’s a political hot potato, but the reality is that Republicans have lost their minds. They insist on draconian cuts to programs that millions of people depend on. Sure, they can offer up drivel, like those people are lazy, or most of them are illegal immigrants, or “This is America. Everyone strives and makes their own way!” But in reality, they are all out to lunch, intentionally clueless.
They can cast aspersions and throw numbers around until the cows come home, but most of us don’t need numbers anymore. We’re totally familiar with cold-hearted incompetence when we see it, and Trump has been the poster child for it since 2016. Actually, well before that.
And one more thing: he’s losin’ it.
