What continues to amaze me is how the mainstream media treats him and his every utterance as if he were a conventional President with some grasp of reality. No skepticism is expressed even when commenting on what he babbled.
The same is true for the "investment community" - oil prices streaked higher yesterday until Trump said something like "we're winning, but we need to win more" - then oil prices retreated and the stock market went back up - both against any measure of objective reality.
His fellow oligarchs own the mainstream media, and they will push the agenda that makes the most money for themselves. I love to watch Useful Idiots (Aaron Mate and Katie Halper), as they show segments where the news anchors constantly contradict their own statements. It would be funnier if it wasn't so sad.
Not entirely, tho, Tom. The press is starting to reflect him. Not back to normal, tho. Just fluctuating…Watching the mainstream press, we ARE seeing them react to his insanity…just not strongly enough, but the cracks are there.
In his last administration, they normalized everything he did. Less so now, in some places, but we still need the Rs to stop enabling him totally. THEY are the ones who normalize him to a toxic degree… Even Lindsay Graham! He’s a lunatic. I swear, I think Republicans have a magic potion that turns their people into raving MAGA fruitcakes.
I came across this Trump quote today from some time in the past (I assume 2016): “He’s (Lady Lindsey) one of the dumbest human beings I’ve ever seen...you’ll end up starting World War III with a guy like that.” Now he's a Trump Whisperer.
Every day feels like we're living in a Monty Python horror movie.
He lies and lies and lies rapidly while lies reach and settle far faster than truths. Trump's diseased mind still leaves him a master marketeer capturing the attention- even Aljazeera played his whole speech last night taking away time to dismantle his lies. Actually, CNN did a better job of handling that flooding the zone with lies. And that is Not saying much!!!
Glenn Diesen has become my richest resource as he has the likes of Mearsheimer, Larry C Johnson, Larry Wilkerson... Iranian professor Seyed M. Marandi. They predict Irian success and huge American/Israeli failure in this war. I hope they are correct and it not just wishful thinking. I see Israel-Zionism the same way I see Nazi Germany-something that needs to be destroyed.
You'd like to think this would be self correcting. But most politicians in D.C. seem to be out of it. So the citizenry gets whipsawed from one incompetent party to the other. Sheesh. Is this any way to run a Republic? Or a Democracy?
In the end 107 days was not time enough to accomplish the task of running and winning the presidency, and we are all the loss for it... I have pretty much nothing but pessimism for this my country, and I'm a optimistic person!! Hope... I'm not one to look back so all we can do now is try and change the system from within. The System is failing us from every level, and guardrails what guardrails....
What more proof could it possibly take to ignore the fact this man is severely learning disabled? Albeit reading, the man is completely illiterate. How much more evidence does anyone need to see something so blindingly obvious?
This is not personal as I do not vote nor ever will. I do however follow politics to stay informed of the lies and subterfuge. And Forest Gump Trump is the greatest ruse in the entire history of world politics. The man doesn't exist. It's nothing more than a charade, a mirage, a hologram they have created. Just like his alleged wealth solidified by the 34 felony counts for falsifying all his business records. There is no such thing as DJT - it's all political theater and he could take home as Oscar.
The man is a fraud and has been his entire life. However they hit paydirt with him as he is also the greatest distraction also in the history of world politics which is why he was deliberately installed.
If Forest Gump Trump had even two living brain cells they would kill each other. The man is also autistic. The only thing he eats are hamburgers for over five decades. Always wears a blue suit, look at his posture, the crossing of his arms in front of his chest. Just "some" of the telltale signs.
He also suffers from severe ADHD and has the attention span of a gnat.
How anyone can believe this ruse solidifies they are just as dumb and ignorant as he is. Politics is all about the gimmick Obama exploited the blacks FGT exploited the idiots not only because he is one but also speaks their very language.
That anyone would believe or put an ounce of credence in anything he does and or claim is more frightening then when this war is headed. There is no such thing as DJT other than in name only. The sooner people start saying USA instead of DJT the faster this ruse will be exposed.
I believe this is also blackmail Israel has on him. Exposing all of it. Although how anyone can deny it, solidifies the intellectual caliber of the world. It's worse than Joe Biden who at least once had a brain, before it deteriorated.
Ah, Bill, no matter what she would likely have done (and I would not have liked ALL of it, I know), I wish to hell we could have elected Kamala…She absolutely would not have done DOGE, dismantled the Ed Department, dumped USAID and WHO, withheld FEMA funds, invaded our own cities with our own Nat. Guard, turned security over to the likes of the Trump Clown Show, enabled Musk, enriched herself with crypto, alienated all of Europe and the rest of the world, started a war with Iran…And
I would like to have seen how that border bill functioned that Trump scuttled so he could continue to bloviate about Biden’s “ open borders.”….. I’d like to have seen how Ukraine might have fared. And NATO, where countries were increasing their defense spending at rational rates and still had a modicum if trust in the U.S., …
And, maybe, our politicians would not be saying “sh*t,” and “fu*k” so often on the record…..
I wonder if, in light of the Gaza behavior of Bibi, whether old AIPAC relationships might not have seen altered relationships. They ARE seeing some in certain quarters today. Maybe Kamla would not have made a strong change, but I do see other past “supporters” rethinking full-throated endorsement these days. No knowing what might have been, except I think I can be confident we would NOT have seen talk of The Gaza Riviera Resort, nor so,many of the wonderful things Trump has done all over and everywhere. Sigh.
I am well aware that he is Jewish. As far as I can tell, he’s not at present officially associated with AIPAC, but I did not look up his history. I know about a zillion Jews who are not AIPAC.
"No matter who you vote for, you get Bibi Netanyahu as president. It makes sense. Recall Bibi’s visits to Congress and the rapturous (even stormy!) applause he always received."
Yup, beyond disgusting. Doesn't this mean that virtually all of Congress is complicit in abetting genocide, and therefore should be packed off to The Hague?
"Well, at least we know who’s controlling this war, and for all their posturing, it’s not bully boy Trump or punch’em when they’re down Hegseth."
Of course the Zionists played the same game with Great Britain from when they first arrived from Eastern Europe to Palestine in the late 19th century. Of course the Brits bent over backwards to have them go there, because they didn't want them in England. Later, when Britain stood in the way of the establishment of Israel, the Zionists showed their gratitude for all that the British had done for them by blowing up the King David Hotel, administrative headquarters of the mandate, killing 91, injuring 46. Menachem Begin was a central figure in pulling that off, thus buffing his resume to become prime minister later.
Right now Israel relies on the US for economic and military aid, and diplomatic cover. When that's no longer the case, adios amigo.
Sorry, no time to read thru all the original post or comments. But as to The Donald's mental functioning--and I am NOT an expert in this field, of course, though I have worked in medical field--I wouldn't say he's "brain dead." ["Morality dead" is another question!] I believe he is very deep into dementia/Alzheimer's (putting Biden in his shadow in that regard!). But of course he'll always claim he "aced" any cognitive skills examination.
A Lancet study of summer of 2025 between 1971 and 2021 America has caused 38 million deaths with its sanctions around the world. That's Nazi Germany territory alone without all the millions of deaths its warring has caused. Bill there’s a bracing topic for you to write about
YES, and you could say that corporate Democratic and Republican policies have starved Americans of basic needs at home causing death and unnecessary poor quality of life.
So now let us together as brothers complete the thought to the root of the problem. The root cause of greatest evil in America and the world IS the Concentration of Private Wealth in the richest nation in the world. The concentration of wealth at HOME-in America-and its corporate policies are the root cause of Americas corporatism backed up by its militarism-its economic warring around the world and military warring. Concentration of wealth is evil-deadly destructive. Concentrated wealth in the richest nation in the world is particularly evil-deadly.
If America shared its wealth for greater social security, it would not have grown the military for a sickly security that ensured social insecurity for Americans and the world.
Trump's presser gaffs cannot even be called gaffs. He actually believes he's either being glib or informative...as his cabinet reps stand around and cringe. Unbelievable! I usually hang in until his concluding remarks though. It's kinda like watching any Nicolas Cage movie or Jaws: The Revenge just to see how funny (bad, ridiculous) it could get.
Hello Bill Astore... This is a Powerful Posting... Thank You... Was Epstein tied into Mossad, as well as the Russians?... Do they have enormous Compromat on DJT?... Why is the USA threatening the World Economy?...

Trump does seem to believe he can "dream it true" until the creditors come to close his casino.
I believe he has some familiarity with that - same with Trump University; Trump Steaks; Trump Vodka, etc.
His fellow oligarchs own the mainstream media, and they will push the agenda that makes the most money for themselves. I love to watch Useful Idiots (Aaron Mate and Katie Halper), as they show segments where the news anchors constantly contradict their own statements. It would be funnier if it wasn't so sad.

Way too true… gad.
( I edited my comment up there…fixed “there” to “ their” … obsessive editor here)
In his loose language as President, when he calls the Leaders of Iran lunatics, it's called Projection!
He lies and lies and lies rapidly while lies reach and settle far faster than truths. Trump's diseased mind still leaves him a master marketeer capturing the attention- even Aljazeera played his whole speech last night taking away time to dismantle his lies.

Hello BJ... "I believe this is also blackmail Israel has on him".... How about Putin... It is called the Content of the Epstein Files...

Sigh.
If only she had run a better campaign!
If only she'd been a different person.
Hello Bill Astore... & how AIPAC Friendly is Kamala?...
Very, very friendly.
Hello Bill... This embrace of AIPAC helped put DJT in Power... In the end, how much will DJT inflict on the USA?...
I wonder if, in light of the Gaza behavior of Bibi, whether old AIPAC relationships might not have seen altered relationships. They ARE seeing some in certain quarters today. Maybe Kamla would not have made a strong change, but I do see other past “supporters” rethinking full-throated endorsement these days.

Hello Pat.. Kamala's Husband, Doug Imhoff, is AIPAC...
I am well aware that he is Jewish. As far as I can tell, he’s not at present officially associated with AIPAC, but I did not look up his history. I know about a zillion Jews who are not AIPAC.
I don't think a person with dementia lies deliberately; they are just disconnedted from reality.
Trump is unfit for the office he holds. He needs to be institutionalize.
"No matter who you vote for, you get Bibi Netanyahu as president. It makes sense. Recall Bibi’s visits to Congress and the rapturous (even stormy!) applause he always received."

It's remarkable that economic sanctions are not usually seen as brutal acts of war -- because they often are exactly that.
YES, and you could say that corporate Democratic and Republican policies have starved Americans of basic needs at home causing death and unnecessary poor quality of life.
Yes, that is true.

It's just so sad that countless people are being slaughtered due to his Dunning-Kruger affliction and sociopathic narcissism.
