It’s another restless night for Donald Trump. He posted an angry screed denouncing General Milley on Friday night and then around 2:00 a.m. he decided that Howard Stern needed to be taken to task. His rage is palpable. It all but radiates off the pixels in his current social media onslaught. Here’s another tidbit for the history books, folks, a former president, current candidate for the GOP ticket, is talking about executing the outgoing chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
“To be continued!!!” We can hardly wait. What happened was that in October, 2020, General Milley had a conversation with his Chinese counterpart in an effort to let China know that Trump was just blowing smoke as usual and had no intention of attacking them. That such a thing was necessary is, once again, testament to how messed up this country got by electing the reality TV actor to run things. Washington Post:
One call took place on Oct. 30, 2020, four days before the election that unseated President Donald Trump, and the other on Jan. 8, 2021, two days after the Capitol siege carried out by his supporters in a quest to cancel the vote.
The first call was prompted by Milley’s review of intelligence suggesting the Chinese believed the United States was preparing to attack. That belief, the authors write, was based on tensions over military exercises in the South China Sea, and deepened by Trump’s belligerent rhetoric toward China.
“General Li, I want to assure you that the American government is stable and everything is going to be okay,” Milley told him. “We are not going to attack or conduct any kinetic operations against you.”
In the book’s account, Milley went so far as to pledge he would alert his counterpart in the event of a U.S. attack, stressing the rapport they’d established through a backchannel. “General Li, you and I have known each other for now five years. If we’re going to attack, I’m going to call you ahead of time. It’s not going to be a surprise.”
Li took the chairman at his word, the authors write in the book, “Peril.”
It’s a good thing that the adults were able to come to an understanding that the child in the White House was just throwing a tantrum and never mind him. This was how precarious things were in Trump’s last days — yet 73 million people were either oblivious to all this or gaslighted into believing that Trump not only had things under control but that he was doing a great job, with China in particular.
Then the focus of Trump’s unhingery went off of the general and onto an old friend of Trump’s, Howard Stern.

I didn’t support anyone. I’m just noting that your hero is ripping out social media posts at 2 AM attacking a male satellite radio host for being unattractive. While you’re here, this is a brief montage of some of Trump’s “highlights” on Stern. pic.twitter.com/UB1ldbZ2kR

And after Milley and Stern, Trump finally got to his usual nemesis, Crooked Joe.
Crooked Joe Biden had no intention of going to visit the United Autoworkers, until I announced that I would be heading to Michigan to be with them, & help then out. Actually, Crooked Joe sold them down the river with his ridiculous all Electric Car Hoax. This wasn’t Biden’s idea,… pic.twitter.com/wvqeaflpo4

The bottom line here is that Trump wants the UAW workers to endorse him, so that he can get elected, so that he can save the Car Industry.
The day is young. It could be yet another meltdown, not that anybody really cares. If there’s one guy who has long outdone the boy who cried wolf, it’s Trump on social media.
Given Joe’s record versus Billy Goat Gruff…I’m certain members of the UAW know WHO is really on their side. If we Democrats can actually get the kind of legislative power to change fundamental injustices, then it’s time to give General Milley the Congressional Medal of Honor for saving OUR and the world’s collective arses. Thanks General. As Atticus Finch said to Boo Radley..”thank you for my children.”
It must have been wild to be a general in the Trump administration. It’s the opposite of Dr. Strangelove, here the president is the one who’s nuts and the general is saving the world.
Just a broken weirdo…
Who dat, Goldilocks?!?
Unattractive? Has Donnie Donuts looked in a mirror lately? He is basically the Penguin,A rich politician secretly running a criminal.network. These days he only needs the beak prosthesis;he’s got the rotund body and annoying voice.
Donnie Dumb negotiated the terms, not Biden. His “negotiations” shut down bases that would have allowed us to carry those,Afghan a who had worked with us to safwty. The horrible mess was HIS fault. We only had one base and a lot fewer planes. HIS FAULT.
He did the same to the Kurds.
My hope is that he ends up.paralyzed and aphasia from a,stroke and suffers Locked In Syndrome,completely unable to communicate for months or years. It is precisely the fate he deserves.
great visual
My God. The fact is we are dealing with monsters. Anyone that supports these creatures are suspect.
Now let me cast my mind back a few years before the Donald snuck into the Pennsylvania address: didn’t he ask a few times regaring nuclear weapons something on the lines of “If we have them – why can’t we use them?”
Then there was his idea of using them on tornadoes.
Not forgetting “…“I have built a nuclear — a weapons system that nobody’s ever had in this country before….”
or
“I had an uncle who was a great professor for, I believe, 40 years at MIT. And I used to discuss nuclear with him all the time.
But he is a genius after all
