The Showdown Fat Donnie Loser Orchestrated

Trump's rhetoric suggests he's eyeing political objectives that go beyond the immediate situation in Los Angeles, which, compared with historical precedents, hardly seems to justify a unilateral presidential intervention.

He is delivering a warning to Democratic jurisdictions nationwide that oppose his deportation moves. And he's not simply demonstrating his desire to militarize his crackdown on undocumented migrants, which he promised in the 2024 campaign despite legal constraints. He's implying he'll use the military, specifically the National Guard, to act against protest and dissent - a prospect that is troubling in a democratic society.

The good news, when Trump cancels midterms, is that the 90 million eligible voters who sat out the last election probably won't notice.

Golden Trump is a poor man's idea of a rich man, a weak man's idea of a strong man, and a stupid man's idea of a smart man.

Which is why he got so many votes.

Trump is eager for blood.

If, by the Grace of God, no actual blood presents itself he'll manipulate the situation until he gets what he wants.

He's a tyrant and a monster. All nations get their turn in the barrel with such freaks and now it's our turn.

Here's hoping that all of his insane plans blow up in his face.

he'll manipulate the situation until he gets what he wants.

That's precisely what he's in the midst of doing now.
