And here we are, with Dumba$$ Donnie saying things he really shouldn’t. No one comes out well in this one, not even him. And it’s odd how he blurts this out, really, *really* without thinking. This is not going to improve the feelings and confidence of the people of America. It’s going to do quite the opposite. What in the hail was he thinking?! Oh, wait, silly me. He doesn’t think. He just says whatever comes to the front of his tiny little mind. And most of the time, it’s another disaster. My indebtedness to Raw Story:
President Donald Trump made a wildly condescending admission about the sort of people he likes to surround himself with during an event in Miami shortly after the signing of his executive order to move money around to pay Transportation Security Administration officials in the absence of a congressional deal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security. “I hang out with losers because it makes me feel better,” said Trump. “I hate guys that are very, very successful, and you have to listen to their success stories. I like people who like to listen to my success.”
That’s harsh. It says a lot about his ‘cabinet’, first of all. It says a lot about him, too. He wants the ego-boo of people looking up to him and asking what he wants done. He loves his slavering sycophants. He wants to look good All The Time. Statements like this one just make him look petty … or should that be pettier? His ‘cabinet’ certainly has to listen to his successes, even when they aren’t. But a lot of the American people think he’s a loser, too. I’m certain I’m not the only one who has a Very Bad Attitude toward Trump and his grifting of all sorts of things. He’s certainly a loser in the Iran war. Idiot to start that. Maybe he’s realizing that Hegseth is a loser and a problem in the whole mess. I wrote about munitions yesterday and commented on Hegseth, as well. Idiot.
This admission caused an eruption from commenters on social media. //// “The only moment of self-awareness in Trump’s life,” wrote podcaster and former Barack Obama strategist Dan Pfeiffer. //// “A better explanation of his two administrations than any idea that any pundit has come up with,” wrote financial columnist Heidi Moore.
“Well, that explains the Cabinet!” said writer and political commentator Robert A. George. //// “Trump sums up his cabinet and Mar-a-Lago,” wrote Campaign for New York Health executive director Melanie D’Arrigo. //// “That explains Valhalla Kash,” wrote former Barack Obama strategist T.J. Adams-Falconer, posting an edited image of FBI Director Kash Patel appearing to wear a massively oversized winter FBI coat.
One of these days, when I grow up, I’d like to write like that. At this point, I can’t come up with anything that witty and snarky. Someday, though. So, our loser ‘president’ has a loser ‘cabinet’, who think they are much better than the rest of us ”peons”. They have shown us they aren’t. They’re power mad and believe they are outside the law. Well, that’s already started cracking open, starting with Gnome. They don’t know how to do their jobs. None of them do, except possibly Rubio. He at least appears to have a brain and intelligence. But the others? Clueless. They are trying to fragment America, to turn people against each other, so we can’t effectively fight back. It’s not working. No Kings had its third protest today. I’m still waiting on estimated numbers. *Everyone* is tired of the decimation of our country and the bullsh!t from Trump, including that effing war. And the world is with us. There will come a time when Trump and his losers will have to face some hard facts. We won’t give up. Let’s see how we can make them lose more. Yes?
See you soon!
Friends, I know everyone begs you for money. I promise that among all those asking for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a group of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. The rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the chance to keep telling the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
