While I like the result, it's disappointing that the measure did not pass with more Republican support. Trump is a lawless president, becoming increasingly so as his dementia advances. We're in a very dangerous situation in which our president feels free to commit murder and acts of war wherever...

They have before ... decisively. Social Security Amendments of 1983

I am distressed about Trump being president, but I do not frame my life around him or make everything about him (like you just did).

That's good. Sad that the people they vote for do not.

I do not know the man beyond what he posts here. I do sometimes wonder if he is a happy man.

There you go again. Lifting a fact or two out of the soup and using it to proclaim all is well. This is a logical fallacy formally known as hasty generalization. It's also a cognitive distortion known as overgeneralization.

Neither does the right, and that's the problem.

The left complained about Musk and DOGE, yes. I do not know if they complained specifically about "consulting about the waste fraud and abuse."

I don't have 10 off the top of my head. The first change I would make would be to reverse the tax cuts given to millionaires and billionaires. That alone would cover a good chunk of it. Massive reform in the way defense contracts are awarded and maintained would also be on the list. That...

You Cannot Laugh the Debt Crisis Away muttly, I see you responded to my debt-crisis post (Two Trillion Dollars) with a laughing emoji. Does the debt crisis not concern you? What is it about the national debt or my post that prompts you to laugh?

Two Trillion Dollars Actually, $2.23 trillion. That's how much the US national debt has increased since Trump took office in January, 2025. (Source: U.S. Treasury’s Fiscal Data "Debt to the Penny" dataset and reports) Contributing factors to this accelerating growth of the national debt...

When two people accuse each other of being ignorant, people tend to believe them both.

I'm sure you think so but an objective observer cannot help but note that you are comparing a future hope against real prices being reported by a real citizen this moment. When looking at lower drug prices, you can do just that. Take a single product, cite the Trump-induced cost reduction and...

Epstein Files Update In January 2026, the Department of Justice admitted in a letter to a federal judge that it has released less than 1% of the total documents required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act. While the law mandated a full release by late December 2025, officials stated that...

Once again we see the dynamic play out; real-world reality vs. a hoped-for better outcome and Trump supporters evaluating Trump by the hope they place in him.

Trump and Soybean Farmers Me asking Google Gemini: Soybean farmers were in the news a few months ago complaining about China's soybean purchase halt. Trump promised relief and China said they would resume their soybean purchases. Did they ever get any money -- actual money -- from the US...

Including those who are burning their red hats today.

Concur all you wish. It's what Trump true believers do. As I said, there will always be some who always believe in Trump. I take comfort in the fact that the total number is declining.

While Trump continues to voice his friction-free Venezuela daydream in public, the Venezuela government has confirmed none of it. Trump can't even produce one US oil company executive who is willing to relocate to Venezuela, let alone a company willing to pour the billions of dollars into the...

I have come to accept that no matter how much evidence to the contrary Trump produces, there will always be some people who believe Trump is/was a great president. Even as we see prominent MAGA believers (e.g. Marjorie Taylor Green, the QAnon shamon, Mike Pence, Nikki Haley, John Kelly, Bill...
