And Trump and his family are grifting all over the Middle East, so of course, they could just walk away from a destroyed American economy and live like the inherited wealth royalty they are, in new world Earth where country boundaries keep the poor out, but not the rich.

Still, say what you will about Trump losing in the courts, it still means it all is about him, and I am quite sure he is fine with losing as long as it keeps him with all the attention. He is an awful man ruining our land, for his ego and of course, for the grift.
Greatest American grifter ever...criminal sure, Unconstitutional, sure...but in a narcissistic dark hearted way, he is what Nixon wanted to be...on top of the world screwing over everyone.

He has watched Netanyahu run Israel as the law was his heels, and Trump clearly figures he can do the same, as long as he can somehow get a south of the border Hamas like attack on the US...
War is the enemy, not each other, we need international laws that strongly penalize those who wage wars of aggression.
Problem is, the US would rather international nuclear war break out rather than international peace break out.

Let's be honest for a minute or so...AI is profitable, is seen as being the way to eliminate the America workers so that the investor class can make even more money, so soon, doctors, lawyers, teachers, truck drivers, taxi drivers, all will face impossible competition from AI and will lose a lot of their ability to work in America.
AI doesn't need to intimidate, the big boys of cutthroat capitalism are on it, are the ones behind American manufacturing running away to China or Vietnam, just research "Nixon opening China to the West".

Good. We now live mostly in a digital world, and getting change with pennies is really and truly dumb.

Children who were raised in wildly dysfunctional families recognize the problem. When the person in charge is an insane, narcissist who demands that everything be about them, that all bend a knee to their mutterings...then one nods, one keeps one's thoughts private, and one moves a thousand miles away, and finds a very good therapist.
America will never get the help it needs because...Republicans. They really are in thrall to the inherited wealth royalty, who demand that the poor suffer and lose whatever safety net they might have.

How does one appeal for reason and logic from an insane, narcissistic leader who is wandering around the world muttering? He isn't famous for listening to anyone, though last term his Chief of Staff, John Kelly, and his Secretary of Defense Mattis were able to distract him as one would distract a little child.

War is in charge of us, we don't seem to be charge of our country and its ability to feed and house and heal the sick and poor.

Fascism on the march...just Trump making sure of those voters who put him back in the White House, that they show up for the midterms. You don't buy a silence to go hunting for deer, you buy one to go hunting for people.

I live in low income HUD subsidized low income housing, in a city where rents have skyrocketed. To be poor in America today is to pretty much lose one's status as citizen and adopt a new status, citizen refugee.

Trump tried to send his consiglieri to Greenland to get them to bend a knee, but the average resident looked at Vance and laughed. It is Vance's main job these days, trying to get leaders to bend a knee to our fascist Dear Leader.

Honestly, I was surprised they didn't do it at the end of Trump's last Term in the White House. It might have ginned up a war with Iran that would have let Trump win his second term.

The educated vote against fascism, so of course, Trump is totally on board with seeing the Department of Education as an enemy stronghold.

Nothing left to do but watch terribly powerful hurricane and tornadoes tear apart our country, and then watch FEMA blame everyone else for their inaction.

The Republican Party has has a plan for many, many years to cut taxes for the rich, and add to the burden of the poor, until the "great day" arrives when America is bankrupt and the rich can take everything including housing, health care, and those things that FDR instituted like social security, away from the poor and the powerless.
No such thing as a good Republican in the time of Trump, they are all too cowardly to stand up for the rule of law and democracy itself

The jury has returned with a verdict many years ago on whether Americans are to be trusted with everyone carrying a firearm.
We cannot.
I wonder if there is a betting site out there that bets on just how many mass shootings Americans will have to endure, as we indulge the firearm industry and the army of hate that wants all dysfunctional young men to carry on their drunken Friday nights.

Weird how Trump lies through his teeth at least half the time, and is called on those lies by a lot of the press not named Fox News, and still he doesn't lose followers. White power hate is strong in Trump and his family...

The Art of the Deal was a ghostwriting bunch of nonsense and that is what Trump is showing to us all, that he cannot do anything but shed blather upon the airwaves.

So you pay a tariff, an add-on fee, to a company that has produced that thing with non union labor in china, and life goes on. Has anyone noticed American manufacturing heading back to our shores? It was the ridiculous Republican Party of the Republican Nixon that "opened china to the west" exactly to do what happened, kill the power of American unions and make a fortune for the investor class. Trump is not going to stop that gravy train any time soon.

And when a massive hurricane blows into Miami, crosses to the Gulf, then reverses course and goes back over Florida...the devastation will be paid for by those people who invested in Florida real estate, and Trump.

Putin did the same thing, but after awhile Russian courts were so totally in Putin's control he didn't have to pretend anything at all to anyone. He was Deal Leader and that was that.

We already have fire and forget drones run by internal AI...not so far from judgement day, is my guess.

Would that the entire US had similar laws, that let people over 70 make their own decisions about their lives and how much suffering they are willing to live with. The Catholic Church is against death with dignity laws, including for those suffering with painful incurable deadly diseases, because, of course, we own the Priest down the street our suffering.
