Got off the Trump train awhile back ever since Gulf of America. Many of you are still on it happily blowing the whistle. A new OTA channel came on my TV the other night - Newsmax 2. Must be important. Watched a little bit and my impression is I don't think Newsmax fully understands the idea that people have the right to protest proposed Medicaid cuts. A few channels over I have OAN. It's usually at this time I'll watch the infomercial for Omega XL or the Emeril Lagasse air fryer. Don't know why almost the whole conservative movement has hitched their wagon to Trump. Sure there are some lone critics and holdouts here and there like Glenn Greenwald and Candace Owens but for the most part it's this massive nonstop collective right-wing orgasm. A real freakoff.
I'm not against the idea of a Golden Dome but how do you fire tens of thousands of federal workers shutter entire agencies and then say we need a multi-billion dollar Golden Dome to maybe even include our neighbor up North? The tariffs are confusing and need to end but Trump wants businesses to just shut up and absorb the extra costs without passing them along to the consumer. Executive orders don't strike me as having the quality of durable law, comes totally out of his whimsy and not the Congress but he feels this is the way to govern and on and on it goes.
Geeeeeez......
Golden Dome goes great with Golden Qatar AF-1. Sort of odd, racking up trillions for stuff after promising to lower the fed debt. His followers bask in the comfort of the only news channels and podcasts that repeat the magic mantra - "Sleepy Joe did it". Dunno- even bright red Idaho is starting to complain to their bright red congressmen. What would George Washington say?

Smoking a pipe is an art. Smoking cigarettes is a habit.
