In the case of Trump and his fascist regime, *idiocracy* is a more appropriate word — and entirely accurate.

I’d contend that’s the MO for much of what they do … the distraction du jour for the hoi polloi while far more nefarious shit is happening behind the scenes. The fascist felon & his flunkies are too dim-witted to realize it’s all backfiring. Tens of millions have had enough … now we must VOTE. ✊🏻

I’d agree … playing dirty is how Trump rolls. Interestingly, Fox News was on the scene as the fascist thugs descended on her house (and likely rummaged through her lingerie drawer.) 😡 Trump’s loyal monsters tipped off their favorite propagandists to ensure the kind of coverage the felon wants.

So touching. 🥹 The world needs more people like him and his friends. Hope the seagull recovers … and a pox on any fishing enthusiast who’s unforgivably careless with hooks and lines.

That’s true as far as Trump himself is concerned … and he’s rabid and running amok. But SCOTUS is far from irrelevant. The Sleazy Six can still hand down rulings that are disastrous for the American people — and that’s what they do.

“With his popularity tanking and his grip on power growing tenuous, Trump is becoming a flailing tyrant.” “… he has been granted extraordinary executive power by a loyalist Supreme Court and has purged the federal government of practically all checks and balances. It’s a recipe for immense harm.”

I understand why you’re citing tradition. But I think Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs offers a better explanation for why people show greater concern for gas prices than for war casualties.

Thank you for posting this. 💙 I’ve fought back on this AIPAC misinformation more than a few times. I don’t understand why people are unwilling to do some research before denigrating any leader working his or her ass off to do the right thing — ESPECIALLY an exceptional man like Jon Ossoff.

I’ve wondered about that 🤔 … why is the focus on money & not lives. It’s not just politicians; it’s also ordinary Americans. Incessant bitching about the price of gas but far too few words of heartache & outrage about those killed & maimed. Maybe the constant chaos has desensitized us. Sad. 😔

Brilliant, exquisitely eloquent, handsome Jon Ossoff offered many on-point remarks in his debate with Republican bigoted bastard Mike Collins; this was one of his best: “If John Lewis were marching today from Selma to Montgomery, Mike Collins would be grabbing a billy club." 🔥 #electjon

"Bread and circuses" was 1stC poet Juvenal's framing of the way Roman Emperors distracted from their failures by providing grain and gladiatorial death-matches. The wannabe Emperor is trying to cover his failures with bread in the form of cash, and televised gore. We better be better than this.

Trump has been often been referred to as "Teflon Don" because none of his many scandals seem to stick to him. You know how Teflon-coated pans wear out over the years and get crusty and then everything start sticking to them? That's Trump now. He's at Late Stage Teflon.
