Husband, Dad, and the world’s greatest Grandpa. Aspiring curmudgeon (hey you kids, get off my grass!). My side gig is mocking Trump. A writer by trade, I believe in science, civility, good grammar, and the Oxford comma. Sarcasm is the best ism.

In the early 80's I went to see Arlo Guthrie at Bogarts in Cincinnati. President Reagan had just reinstituted the registration for the draft. Arlo was mad. He had stopped playing Alices Restaurant after VietNam. Now, he had to "learn the whole Godamned song all over again."

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch Editorial Board has something to say about their junior senator's behavior at the Jack Smith hearing. This sum it up well: "And we’ll just leave it to readers to decide whose behavior in this story qualifies for the label “dirtbag” — let alone "villain."" Well said.

Sleepy Joe Biden? I don't recall Biden falling asleep in televised meetings. Of course, I don't recall him needing to surround himself with people, while he's sitting at this desk, just so he can feel important, either.

If the Democrats win back the House, and/or the Senate, it won't be because of anything they did. They're losers. Trump is screwing up left and right, breaking laws, destroying the economy. Senator Durbin's response, "I wish." Get the hell out of the way and let Ossoff do it.

It seems apparent that Netanyahu knew what was up, but let it proceed so he could move his country to war. Why? To avoid his own prosecution??? If not true, someone needs to explain the profound failure. If true, he is a truely vial creature and an enemy to Israel.

OK, I just want to put it out there. It's not just that I disagree with Tommy on important issues, which I do. The problem I have with him is he is so stupid. He is shallow and ignorant and clueless and uninformed and un-American in his profound cluelessness. He is perfect for the Trump admin.

The experts said, "Don't do tarriffs." We did tarriffs and broke the U.S. economy. The experts said, "Don't go into Iran." We went into Iran and broke the world economy. The experts are saying, "Don't do an export ban on Diesel." Guess what? Yup. Chuck Grassley is a dumbass.

The Lincoln Center, a memorial to President Kennedy no different than the memorials to Jefferson and Lincoln, was doing fine financially--until Trump got involved. And then, like everything else he touches, he destroys it. Or at least he's in the process.
