I can’t shake the thought that this military build-up near Venezuela is just the latest attempt at distraction from everything going on at home for President Dunce Cap. Imagine putting our military personnel in harm’s way just so we can secure more fossil fuel and keep the media off the scent of decay. Certain pundits and anchors are playing up this potential confrontation as a cakewalk, but we should know better.
There’s plenty from which to distract: a delayed release of footage from the second boat strike on 9/2, the ongoing smokescreen surrounding the release of the Epstein files, dissatisfaction with food prices and costs in general, and the never-ending reminders of just how ill-suited and incompetent the entire administration is, beginning with Donald Trump– the fragile man child dressed in a suit.
Another building with his name on it, receiving a ridiculous, contrived FIFA Peace Prize, hosting the Kennedy Center Honors and spearheading that institution’s plunge into irrelevance—it all serves to keep him happy, I guess.
But to the rest of the world, it’s just the latest confirmation of how pathetic he is, and that the bottom has yet to be glimpsed, in reference to how far we’re falling.
