This should be the fitting response when Trump finally leaves office. The only reason he parted ways with buddy Bibi and signed a ceasefire deal with Iran is the price of gas and what that would mean for Republicans in the midterms. No other reason. He should never have started that war to begin with. Trump starts the mess and then pivots all statesmanlike to make peace kind of digging out of his own hole. The whole Trump term somehow reminds me of a Brady Bunch episode when they don't know how to do the laundry, a touch of a male Lucy then the MAGA-ites celebrate the art of it all.
Are we piling on Trump? For sure but he who can dish it out should also be able to take it.
He spent several million redoing the reflecting pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial and painted the bottom blue. They turned on the water some time back and now it is filled with algae. Can we call it the Trump Sludge Pit?
ReplyDeleteMay as well put some turtles and tadpoles in there. A chorus of frogs on a hot summer night.
ReplyDeleteWe canoe tripped a N WI river and camped on a sandy bushy mound.
ReplyDeletePlace was surrounded by lily pads and we had a chorus of frogs. Almost as bad as the night we camped next to s slough on the Red Cedar. Bunch of dead trees sticking up. It turned out we were next to
a blue heron roost. Dozens up in the dead branches, croaking alllnight. I had nightmares of pterodactyls all night.
Oh, to be young again....

Well if you're into lipid nanoparticles and modified RNA that has never existed in Nature before.
ReplyDeleteI remember a story from that era. Chris Rock got sick as a dog from covid after having been vaccinated. Posted on social media trust me you don't want this get vaccinated. Kind of circular reasoning. Strange times.
ReplyDeleteI'm with James Carville and I said it months ago... Trump will not finish his term. He will resign under a pardon deal with VP "soon to be President" Vance.
ReplyDeleteCarville thinks it will be in March 2027. My chips are on November 2028, after the next elections.
On the grounds of corruption? Health? Illegal actions? Mental derangement? Or All Of The Above?

ReplyDelete:Larry Kudlow, former Trump economics expert still rules the Fox airways. I did everything he did not recommend and nothing he recommended and did quite well. Now I see a couple of economics experts going over the records agree with me. At least he got over his alcohol and cocaine habits.
ReplyDeleteEconomics. The dismal science.

ReplyDelete"Bitcoin (BTC) is down about 39% year-to-date, sitting in the low $63,000 range after plunging from highs near $100,000 late last year. The cryptocurrency market has erased over $2 trillion in valuation since its 2025 peak, with BTC languishing through a third consecutive negative quarter" The crypto $ is based on complex aglorithms that use of KW by the huge buildings of computers and over 90% has been
'mined' so far. Oddly, an actual phisical bit coin has never been made.
Like Soapy, Trump is heavily invested in the stuff. Kind of like a scam?

Ood threads of history butting into my life - On a cold wintery night in Februar 1959 there was a Winter Dance Party in town, but I turned down the HS bunch because it was only 9 degrees. out. Raving success live Buddy Holly the Big Bopper, Richie Valens (La Bamba) and their band. It broke up around midnight. The band left, some in a rented plane, some on a bus. Headed for Iowa, plane crashed, killing
ReplyDeleteall of the above into a frozen field. They made a movie about it called
The Day The Music Died - described in American Pie. Next year some politican gave a talk in our college auditorium. Went thru the reception line afterwards and shook the guy's hand. John F. Kennedy. He won and was assassinated 3 years later. A year later I enlisted just out of college to avoid the draft (didn't have bone spurs). After a few weeks
Pvt BB was in a pup tent in a blizzard when the top sarge called me out. They put me in a jeep to regimental HQ, where the Col pinned the
