Trump can’t do a course correction because he’s hopelessly out of touch with reality. I might even go so far as to say he appears to be insane.

I just read the New York Times article about this. I think the article provided the “Why” towards the end of the article. Trump sees another President convicted at trial who claimed he wasn’t guilty & was the victim of a conspiracy to get him. So Trump’s thinking “kindred spirit.”

Now Admiral Holsey needs to testify before Congress regarding what he knows that caused him to abruptly retire.

I think Trump has fewer and fewer MAGA “fans” who think his insulting reporters is a “winning” tactic. Especially since he’s particularly targeting women. Plenty of the MAGA crowd are women and now they also see Marjorie Taylor Green pulling back the curtain on Trump.

This Texan applauds the judges ruling. Love seeing Guv Abbot & Friends and Donnie T having a very bad day today.

As others have said, Donald J Trump is totally transactional in all scenarios. My 2 cents: He has no morals whatsoever & could care less if people become impoverished, imprisoned, sickened or die as a result of his actions. He has a mind similar to a serial killer.

And let’s not forget Trump’s prediction for the kiddies for Christmas: “Two dolls instead of thirty, and they might cost a bit more.”

Well, if I was face to face with Trump and called him a liar and a scumbag, that would probably agitate and irritate him. But it would still be freedom of speech. And when the heck has a flag burning ever incited a riot? Trump incited the January 6th riot & got immunity. Go figure.

If you look at the newsreels from WWII, you see our Generals and Admirals were not exactly perfect physical specimens. But they sure did a hell of good job leading and helping to win the war. Hegseth doesn’t know what he doesn’t know.

Tyrant. And Donnie sounds like he’s breathing his last gasps. Very unwell.

To me, this was - in effect - Hegseth saying to those assembled: “Look at me! I got the power! On a whim, I can make you jump on a plane and come to me. I can make you sit there and have to listen to me rant and rave about ‘fat generals’ and whatever other crap I want to throw at you. I own you!”

Trump making it about him. Even at a funeral. Admittedly, it was a very surreal sort of funeral, but Trump emphasizing hate put the spotlight on what a disgusting creature he is.

I guarantee you, that you can make one pound of ground beef stretch farther by adding water and a box of Hamburger Helper. It’s a cheap “filler” that many of us who’ve been through hard times are very familiar with.

I’d love to see Donnie - at a press conference - try to pronounce the word “incalculable.” 😳

Retired Veterans Health Administration employee here. “Burn it all down” is not the way. In my 40 years as a federal worker & later as a Union rep, I experienced firsthand the serious harm that a govt shutdown does to federal workers & the public. Chaos & mass suffering will be the result.

Yep. The ghost of Epstein has come back from Hell to haunt Trump in his waking hours and in his nightmares. I’ve always felt strongly that one day Trump will get his comeuppance. Maybe this is it.

Trump did file a lawsuit against
the Wall Street Journal when they brought the birthday card to light. But nothing has happened with the lawsuit, & since then the birthday card has been released to Congress by the Epstein estate. That release was due to a subpoena.

No one in the press yet - that I know of - has yet has confronted Trump or his Press Secretary with:
“OK, you say Trump didn’t write the words and didn’t sign the card. But…here’s a Yes or No question: Was the card an idea of his that he had someone else print and give to Epstein? Epstein kept it!
