Come on. You know that it's correct. Putin is now arguably the most powerful man in the world since Donald is back.

Some people so badly want to see evidence of strength and intelligence in Donald. They are not there.

The first weeks of the man's second term have been among the stupidest of any president on record.

Stupdity, as Heinlein said, is a capital offense.

Donald's going to make a military miscalculation. We both know it. The man is drunk with power and wholly out of touch with reality.

Donald will hand us a military DEFEAT. The only question is how big and bad that is.

Servicemen will die; and Donald will not call the widows.

What did the traitorous orange turd do with the missing Russia binder?

Maybe they're cackling because they're watching a very stupid President of the United States self-immolate.

Is it too early to start talking about 25th Amendment? Oh wait, he's only appointing lunatics more loyal to him than to the nation to the Cabinet! America is F**ked! Thanks MAGAmorons!

"Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved, indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous."
