I get and appreciate the humor. However, President Bush doesn't belong in this group -- he has his own special f*ck-ups that have cost the lives of many and trillions of dollars of spending and debt.

I disagree. The DOJ took the Jan 6 rioters too seriously. The rioters were the distraction that kept the DOJ from investigating the real coup attempt by Trump through the fake electors scheme.

This is so spot on that I had to look it up to see if Truman really said this. He did. It is worth a read.

Lieutenant, I have top secret clearance. Putin sees to it that I share more than you.

From "It's a Wonderful Life"
George: "I wonder what’s eating that old money-grubbing buzzard anyway?"
Father: "Oh, he’s a sick man—frustrated and sick. Sick in his mind, sick in his soul, if he has one. Hates everybody that has anything that he can’t have. Hates us mostly, I guess."

Exactly what I was thinking about today, the business person persona of "the firefighter" which is really an arsonist role so you can be the hero who puts out the fire.

I was also thinking about which grift was being enabled by these market swings.

Be patient @markhamillofficial.bsky.social, I need this to play out just a little bit longer so I can make billions. [Did I just say the quite part out loud? Oh well, just kidding.] --Trump

To be fair, anyone less than 10 months dead should have been ahead of Trump by double digits.

I don't see President Trump in your lineup.
