The Few. The Proud. The 20%

 Parts of Trump's evangelical base are now openly calling Trump an antichrist.  He didn't attend any kind of Easter religious service and he uses ai regularly now to poke fun at faith.  Polling consistently shows deep negative job approval ratings and most folk are not on board with the Iran War.  If you still support Trump what's up?  On a personal level he has absolutely no likeable qualities as far as I can see.  Even Megyn Kelly has finally jumped ship.  If you're still in that polling minority that approves of Trump you need to explain his greatness because I'm missing it.

Cult:)

Artistic dementia

 Trump takes time off from ruling the world to play around with AI.  Trump as Jesus.  Him and Pope Leo don't get along.  Kindergarten stuff.  Trump says the ai-generated image of him as Jesus was really just him as a doctor for the Red Cross.  Aesthetic interpretations.  If Salvador Dali were alive today he'd probably do a Trump and a Bibi and include an unmistakable phallic symbol. The Persistence of Egoism.  I'm only guessing here but if someone posted an ai-generated image of Trump and Bibi in an act of homoeroticism he would not be amused.

Will this stuff be taught in art class someday?

First we stole Venezuela's oil. Now we're after Cuban cigars?

 They say Cuba is next on Trump's hit list after Iran.  Is there a missile crisis?  The way I was brought up only the Congress has the power to declare war it's such a serious undertaking.  Call me quaint.  War is Hegseth's version of Viagra.  Cuba - the only question is what's in it for Israel?

The missing checks

 Never got that 5K DOGE check.  Never got the 2K tariff rebate check either.  That would've been 7K total nice for some home improvement.   On the other hand NYS Governor Kathy Hochul promised New Yorkers an inflation refund check and delivered difference being she wasn't talking out of her ass.  Don't float something if you're not serious.  BB is probably right the money went to fund Hegseth's war games.  Maybe after Trump topples Cuba he can install the son over there.

My friend the Trump junkie.  Driving him home yesterday and trying to bring up different topics.  Movies from the 70s.  Robert Duvall.  Even Bigfoot couldn't stop him from proselytizing for Trump.  He brought up Kristi Noem and why Trump was right in firing her.  Appointed her the shield of feral cats in Latin America or something.  My friend brought up her muti-million dollar advertising campaign and something about a private jet.  Just as an outside observer looking in I offered even though I probably disagreed with most of what she said and did, spinning the ICE abuses for example she was extremely loyal to Trump and seems to me he pushed her off the subway platform.  Ethics?  When did that ever bother Mr. Trump before?

What's wrong with Lindsey Graham?

Ìs Hannity into Irish kickboxing?

 The warmongers over at Fox News.  Sean Hannity armchair warrior.  Probably never even picked up a rifle to shoot a duck.  You know things are serious when even Megyn Kelly is distancing herself from Trump over the Iran War.  She who spun the ICE abuses.  The rift in the Trump base is widening.  Trump is both impulsive and compulsive.  Is there a disorder for that?  Makes important decisions without considering the consequences.  Banned the penny now a woman at work doesn't know what to do with all her pennies.  The Strait of Hormuz now a huge problem for Trump.  The new Ayatollah, Ayatollah Jr. now closing it off.  Affecting the global economy.  Will you get your SHEIN shoes?  Hannity can afford to pay more at the pump.  YOU may have to have sardines for dinner.  Hegseth says it may take some time to take control of the Stait.  Maybe he can put some of his hair gel in the water and set the place on fire.

According to my Analytics I'm even getting blogviews in Vietnam.  I don't know what this means.

Remember when gas prices rose under Biden

 Some people put Biden "I Did That" stickers on the gas pumps.  Now we can put Trump stickers on the pumps.

Another Khamenei chosen as Iran's Supreme Leader.  The son.  That's some regime change.

7th US Serviceman killed.  Trump telling Americans to expect domestic terror.  Noem fired as Secretary of DHS.  I think Trump put her in charge of feral cats or something.  She went above and beyond for her man.  Thrown under the bus.  That's the Trump M.O.  Does the guy have any real friends?

Losing the midterms;)

Keeping the Epstein Files off the front page

 The War with Iran.  I think they make it up as they go along.  Apparently we bombed a girl's elementary school over there and the first American casualties are coming in.  Gone are the days I guess of the CIA trying to give a foreign dictator an exploding cigar and sparing everyone else.  The send our men and women into harm's way presidency.

The unexpurgated unredacted Epstein Files must be pretty bad.  Trump doing a Bibi.  Expect more wars.  Cuba?

A visceral take on the Iranian action

 No tears here for Khamenei.  Saw some of our American protesters on TV.  I never understood the soft spot for dictators on the part of the Left.  Never understood the soft spot for radical Islam on the part of the Left.  Having said that Trump didn't campaign on taking out the Ayatollah.  A key part of MAGA was not so much anti-war but no foreign wars or entanglements.   Joint US/Israeli action striking Iran.  Again whatever Bibi wants Bibi gets.  That too goes against another key part of MAGA America First.  So a kind of mixed reaction from me.  Ali Khamenei now officially deceased did have thousands of those Iranian protesters killed.  No grief here for the ex-Iran Supreme Leader.  However since this is all about regime change who will succeed him?  Does Bibi have him all picked out?  Unclear.  Will probably also affect the oil markets.

Chaos in the Middle East.  What else is new?

Foreign protesters good American protesters bad

 Pondering the dichotomy here.  The Iranian regime's crackdown on anti-government protesters at last count 2,500 dead.  Trump weighing his military options and knowing Trump he will probably do something and truthfully I would not shed a tear for the mullahs.  Over here state-sanctioned violence against anti-ICE protesters.  Not getting the dissonance.  A growing number of DOJ federal prosecutors are resigning over the direction of the probe into the killing of Renee Nicole Good.  Fringe righties though still defending it even as Rogan and some other podcasters who used to support Trump are condemning it.  Maybe Megyn Kelly will dance with Trump some day to some nice Nazi waltz music in the new WH ballroom.  Apparently if I understand correctly the new training period for new ICE recruits is no longer 5-6 months but 47 days in honor of Trump being the 47th president.   Iranian regime bad Trump regime good.

You can't make this shit up:)

The few remaining people who still support Trump are not MAGA

 President Trump has betrayed MAGA not the other way around.  Trump has betrayed MAGA most notably on foreign policy to wit no foreign interventions and no regime change wars.  America First NOT Israel First.  Trump is a war criminal at this point.  He invaded Venezuela, kidnapped its president Nicolas Maduro and his wife and now claims to be in charge and running that country.  This was never really about drugs but all about OIL.  The indictment against Maduro and his wife doesn't even mention fentanyl.  The rest of the Venezuelan government is still largely intact and Trump has threatened an even more brutal attack if the lady VP over there doesn't comply.  Venezuelan paramilitary forces everywhere.  Sound familiar?  Boots on the ground would mean guerilla warfare = quagmire for years.  Now Trump has his sights set on Cuba and possibly Greenland an important NATO ally.  So far the military is obeying Trump's every illegal order.  Thorny issue.  They might want to reconsider that or be held to account somewhere down the road.  Putin has made his chess move saying release Maduro now.  China the same.  MAGA has already abandoned the POTUS in droves.  What remains are those few remaining supporters and loyalists.  That's not MAGA.  They're beyond MAGA.  Now we're talking cult territory.  Weren't we just talking about the Trump/Epstein Files like a few days ago?

Donald J. Trump.  Madman on the world stage.

The only way to stop Trump is to bring him before the International Criminal Court

 Any country can file a motion.  However with America's military might probably won't go anywhere.   War crime charges have already been filed against Bibi by the ICC and he's still happily conducting his little genocide with our help btw.  The other avenue is impeachment and that's very unlikely to happen.  Turns out Trump if you read the news reports was really after Venezuela's vast oil reserves all along.  Most fentanyl comes from Mexico.  Don't confuse me with the facts though.

Yet another distraction from the Trump/Epstein Files.  Glad Anonymous is exposing Mr. Trump on YouTube though.  Just wish they'd get rid of those silly masks.

So now we capture foreign leaders?

 The little ones anyway.  Trump bombed Caracas the capital of Venezuela and captured Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro and his wife.  An act of naked aggression.  What are they gonna do with Maduro have him scrub toilets?  Hegseth is like the neighborhood psycho who finally grew up and got himself into a position of power.  Will Trump someday join his BFF Bibi in the docket at the ICC?  The man is out of control.  I'd like to see him capture Putin, Kim Jong Un and Xi Jinping.  Trump - a big man with tiny balls.

The Restoration of the Republic - how long?

 In just the span of a few short weeks my rock-ribbed all-American conservative friend has gone from anyone who is anti-Trump is drinking the Kool-Aid to Trump's a weird guy.  MAGA not so much a base anymore but a remnant.  The tariffs - unless it's my imagination the cost of my online shopping has shot up overnight.  Venezuela - not a source of major drug traffic like Colombia and Mexico more a grab for oil.  Trump's Birthday - maybe a national holiday?  The ICE shitshow continues to rampage across the land.  Putin/Zelensky- Trump the Great Appeaser.  Foreign policy - Israel First.  The MRI - what's that all about?  Whimsical pardons.  The SCOTUS poised to expand his kingly powers.  Who's the court jester in this Administration?

The Trump 2nd Term - a boil on the ass of History;)

For Anti-Semite of the Year I nominate my sister's parrot

 Some woman with a sketchy background runs some site called StopAnti-Semitism.com.  Every year they hand out awards for Jew-hater of the year.  Last year Candace Owens got the top honor.  This year Tucker Carlson is in the running of course along with Cenk and Ana from the Young Turks, Ms. Rachel, actresses Marcia Cross and Cynthia Nixon and a few others.  Basically it's all about calling out Bibi and the genocide in Gaza.  This is weak.  Criticizing a foreign government is not the same thing as hating that country's people.  If you have a problem say with the Argentinian government it doesn't mean you hate Argentinians.

My sister owns an African Grey Parrot.  In addition to saying my sister has a fat ass and generally talking smack he has said some things about Jews behind closed doors.  Nick Fuentes has asked why he's not on the list.  Can we nominate the bird?

Is the Trump Doctrine just to go to war against everybody?

 The little countries anyway.  Venezuela, Colombia, perhaps Nigeria.  Modeling himself after Bibi maybe.  Multi-front wars or wars in the making.  Seems to have forgotten about Greenland.  Lost track of all the Venezuelan fishing boats blown out of the water.  Hegseth talks about it like a video game.  Hegseth the gamer - 3 killed today.  Is Trump gonna take the coffee fields in Colombia too?  Retesting our nuclear arsenal in his spare time.  Funny way to angle for a peace prize down the road.

A broken clock is right twice a day

 By my calcs for every ten bad things Trump does he does one good thing.  The release of the remaining hostages in Gaza or trying to get Big Pharma to lower drug prices.  So for Trump to do five good things he has to do fifty bad things.  You do the math.

Back to business as usual

The shitshow must go on.

D.C. police apparently not obeying their ICE overlords so Trump may declare another emergency.   Rubio and Bibi meet in Israel to discuss possible annexation of the West Bank.  Bibi bombing high-rises in Gaza City for no apparent reason.  If the Supremes don't approve of Trump's tariff policy he may have to pay the money back.  Good times.

I haven't checked my updates but is Rosie O'Donnell still a threat to Humanity?

Charlie Kirk

Conspiracy theorists are already saying Netanyahu and the Mossad had right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk assassinated.  For the record I do not subscribe to this but the thought occurred Bibi is out of control at the moment and it's not entirely out of the realm.  Many people even experts are describing yesterday's events at Utah Valley University as a professional hit.  One precise shot from a rooftop at least 200 yards away and the bullet hit Kirk's jugular.  Cops recovered a high-powered bolt-action rifle from the scene.  The FBI describe the shooter as college age and are said to have recovered palm and forearm prints.  Image released of person of interest.  Broad condemnation of the act from both the Left and the Right.  I'll save further thoughts for the Comments section.

If Hamas leaders are vacationing in Paris

Does Bibi then bomb Paris?  What are the Rules of War anymore?  Trump gave a muted response to the latest saying he wasn't thrilled by Tuesay's attack by Israel targeting senior Hamas leaders in the Qatari capital of Doha.  Trump wants to keep his jet but also Bibi as a BFF.  Reading Zionist reaction online to the strike saying Netanyahu has balls of steel and now has a real achievement under his belt.  Meanwhile there's been a little Polish action in the Russia/Ukraine War first time a NATO member got involved in the conflict.  Poland said it shot down Russian drones that invaded its airspace.  Mad players on the world scene.  Putin Bibi and Trump.  What could go wrong?

Does Trump have plans for a Greater Israel?

 Bibi has a dream, a vision for a Greater Israel.  Not a fan of the 2 State solution.  In it he gets all of Gaza of course, Lebanon, parts of Syria and Saudi Arabia, the Sinai Peninsula of Egypt, Iraq, part of Yonkers?  He sees this as a Biblical mandate, a spiritual mission.  Pure Zionism.  Bibi's Greater Israel Project.  What's in it for Trump?
