Citation is an art. I'm stealing this one (for an epigraph of something not yet written): it's gnomic, comic, and suits the times we're living in.

My favorite part of today's speech was Trump leaning on the Generals to use their connections & influence to whip up sales of U.S. made armaments and weapons to foreign countries, as if they were Fuller-Brush salesmen. Perhaps he thinks he can co-opt them thus--by paying them a sales commission.

I wish someone would take up the taxpayer angle on all these silly moves by Trump. We, all of us, are paying for this theater that does nothing but provoke court cases (more tax dollars).

This is why J.D. Vance is a sub-human ratfucker. He's clearly lying out his ass, and he knows it, to try and demonize the opposition party. Everyone knows that the Epstein scandal is non-partisan, but there he is. Makes me think he knows Trump has serious liabilities.
