@Jakelafort – ya made me think of a modern Sinclair Lewis.

I recently asked AI to “Compare Trump and Berzelius “Buzz” Windrip”. I thought the last paragraph of the answer was very funny.

Sinclair Lewis’s 1935 novel *It Can’t Happen Here* introduces Berzelius “Buzz” Windrip, a populist politician who ascends to the U.S. presidency by exploiting…[Read more]

I see what ya did there with the left. You’re right. And yet I don’t mean to demonize lefties to the exclusion of right wingers or anyone else. We sort of have to posit free will even if we think it is absent. So to the extent I am reacting to the overt representations and behavior of far left i conclude it is despicable.

Trump being elected means CNN and MSNBC ratings will soar. One shit show after another and viewers outraged and wanting more.

@JakeLaFort, are there any good humans any more?

(I first wanted to say ‘are there any good humans “left”?’, but that would have opened a trap door beneath me.)

Now that Trump’s elected, has the prospect of civil war gone away? Hardly!

@ Jake

While of course military folk can vote and can have political views, their oath is to The Constitution and not the President, and if an order is clearly not allowed under that sacred document, we should be able to expect them to decline to carry it out. That said, a President can probably find some weak kneed, sympathetic, or corruptible…[Read more]

Lawyer says some Trump critics might want to take a long vacation (somewhere without an extradition treaty?) Some might want to consider becoming expats.

Trump is planning on taking a major page out of the dictator’s playbook by purging the military of potentially problematic (“woke”) leaders. You know, the ones who might decided to decline to carry out an illegal order.

In order to qualify for a position under Trump, you need to prove that you’re unqualified.

Right. (rolling my eyes)

Matt Gaetz has three traits Trump likes: 1) he’s got legal problems that Trump can immunize him from; 2) because of 1), Trump can count on his absolute loyalty; 3) he’s into underage girls.

Actually, Matt is really lucky because if Jeffrey Epstein was still around he would probably have been the leading candidate.

It’s over we are done 😂 😂 😂 joking, not joking. 😢

Musk already being regarded as “the guest who won’t leave after the party is over.”

Matt Gaetz to serve as attorney general????????? What next, Tulsi Gabbard as director of national intelligence???

I believe that two men prominent toward the end of Trump’s campaign will have a short shelf life.

You have to be loyal to Donald but he’s loyal to no one. Two of those he’s been keeping close (reference to a famous maxim) will probably be tossed aside in fairly short order. The first will likely be RFK, Jr., because he’s a loose cannon and, maybe…[Read more]

Adding to the fun, Trump is refusing to sign the ethics pledge.

WTF?!?!? Elon Musk in charge of “Government Efficiency????”

Now that he has so many government contracts with SpaceX and NSA spy satellites and how they communicate with each other, he should be able to ensure he has no competition when tendering for any future ones. He can just undercut the best ones by a dollar and award it to himself. The fac…[Read more]
