Trying to be sensible amongst the madness.
Kennedy Center board votes to rename ‘Trump-Kennedy Center’. At least this way, killing a great American institution will cost less than having DOGE do it.

Since the Trump administration took office, the National Park Service has lost 24% of its permanent staff. Who is supposed to be raking the forests on Federal lands?

We need sandwich control laws in America. Backdoor payments by French's obviously swayed the jury! At very least legislators must restrict the flow of condiments across the border. They're not sending their best!

There's a long list of movies old Trumpy obviously didn't see that would have helped him with his empathy bypass and blighted view of right and wrong. He is a latter day Old Man Potter, hence "The Gulf of Pottersville." Any others come to mind?

So, America is taxing imports on Canadian and Mexican products. Aluminum, automobiles, high-grade oil (for gasoline). Who buys those imports? Americans. Who do you think is going to pay extra for those imports? Dick Trump thinks we’ll “understand”. Will we?

What can be done when a government becomes no longer fit for purpose as it relates to the well-being of its people? Perhaps let it look after things important to its interests, and the people take care of those things important to their well-being, and not be subject to its whims and fancies.

Tariffs. Canada and Mexico have options. E.G. Canada buys a LOT of agricultural machinery. Tariffs on Caterpillar (Texas) but not Deere (Illinois). This would have a long-term impact for both companies and might prompt some serious lobbying in DC. Just a thought.
