It’s hard to decide which is the real main act in the center ring of the Trump circus, because there are so many side acts and distractions. Forget about the culture war outrage. That is merely to drag you off of the main points. Empty Greene tried that today. She was upset that the Congressional Record had verbiage referring to Rep. McBride as “gentlelady” when “she’s a MAN!” Marge wants you to know. Ignore all that. And ignore Marge’s lush boyfriend, Brian Glenn, claiming that he’s had “1,000s of death threats” for asking President Zelensky why he didn’t wear a suit to the Oval and has to have a police escort. Nobody knows that asshole is alive and those who do, don’t care. This is stuff and nonsense to detract you from the main event.

Or should we say events? Because the two areas where Trump is wrecking America most fervently is national security and the economy. It’s merely a question of which one will take main stage first. Right now the odds are even. So let’s begin with Ukraine, because that is certainly the linchpin in the world order as we know it. And here is Trump’s number one son to explain it to you. (You may want to watch this with the sound off first, just to realize how utterly effed up this guy is.)

And lo, for it was prophesied well over a year ago. We have all known exactly what was going to happen — well not all of us. Half of us have known. MAGA believed that Trump could stop the war his first day. Say, maybe Trump WILL stop the war on his first day in office — if only Trump is talking about one day in Mercury time. Yeah, that’s it. A day on the planet Mercury is 59 earth days long. So Trump still has a while to make good on his promise to end the Ukraine war in one day. Hell, I think I’ll send this idea to Fox News and let Jesse Watters pitch it with a straight face. We’re on Mercury time, ladies and gents. You’re welcome, Donald and Rupert.

And here’s president co-president Musk arriving, wearing his kid for a scarf, as usual. I don’t want to know what that kid is like in fifteen years.

Let’s get real. Looney Tunes and Barnum & Bailey have nothing on this crowd. And here’s J.D. attempting to sound like a diplomat. No wonder the Wall Street Journal told him, “that’s no way for a wanna be diplomat.” (Referring to attacking Zelensky in the Oval.)

Details schmeetails. We have known all along that Trump fully intends to dump Ukraine like a juicy bone in front of ravenous wolf Putin. That is not new information. And as to the economy?

So you call it: which will Trump manage to wreck first, national security and our standing in the world or the economy?

  2. Simple questions to challenge MAGA folks who want to end aid to Ukraine: “Should the US end all aid to Israel? To Taiwan? Why single out Ukraine, which is fighting for its survival?”
