This rich, egoistic buffoon was responsible for using his vast wealth to stock Pennsylvania school boards with loads of wackos. His scheme was later repudiated by voters in Bucks County, where he lives, and Democrats have since won election after local election in the county. But he's still smug.

Maybe Trump could get the judge to approve of the following message for the front of the Kennedy Center: "Bankrupted by Donald J Trump"
washingtonpost.com
The Kennedy Center was solvent when Trump took over. Then its finances collapsed.
The Post examined 15 years of the institution’s financial records to see why it went south after the president took over.

The grotesque "Beautiful Bill," the failure to continue the subsidies, etc are not merely Trump actions. They reflected the priorities of the Republican Party. And they party is going to lay a price.

Schmitt, Kennedy and other GOP senators and staff actually, and readily, believed the bizarre conspiracy theory that Smith was somehow secretly conspiring with Fanny Willis - despite the utter lack of evidence and sheer implausibilty of the claim.

I don’t own individual stocks, and I won’t own them as governor. The only thing I am invested in is lowering costs for Ohioans. Vivek Ramaswamy has over $5 million invested in the data center industry and millions more in many other industries that Ohio’s governor would be in charge of regulating.

Another way of making this point: The wheels may be coming off the Trump administration and the authoritarian movement energizing it. But a large tractor-trailer barreling down a highway at full speed whose wheels come loose is very dangerous to innocent people in the vicinity.
