Jovaughn @jovaughn.bsky.social · 26/08/2025In a sentence what we are experiencing is a presidency that is testing the "norms" ie. unwritten traditions of the way we do things. Every check and balance that Trumps army of lawyers can find are having a plate of spaghetti headed their way to see if their insult will stick. Where will it stick? 000 0
Jovaughn @jovaughn.bsky.social · 16/08/2025It's difficult to deal with a narcissicist. Most take the easy path and feed Trumps ego to keep peace. Here that would not work so Newsom is triggering Trump to expose the weaknesses for all to see. The emperor has no clothes. 010 0
Jovaughn @jovaughn.bsky.social · 16/08/2025Or he does his famous TACO and does not announce his TACO on fox news so the rubes never hear about his 180. Thats what he does when he told the rubes one thing and the elites that bankroll him the other thing. But on fox news one would never know the game he plays. 000 0
Jovaughn @jovaughn.bsky.social · 16/08/2025Most of what Trump tells you he is doing is illegal. He makes a proclamation on Fox news and the rubes think it is a done deal. Then he has to drop it when he loses in court. 000 0

Reposted by JovaughnScott @scottglewis.bsky.social · 03/08/2025You can also target it at specific industries. Dump all green energy tariffs. Start with Canada, Mexico, South Korea and Japan for cars and parts. Call up the American autos and ask to start building nice cheap cars and then start lowering the rate on China EVs. 101 0
Jovaughn @jovaughn.bsky.social · 04/08/2025Sad to say that these days anyone saying "he" is referring with outrage to a single individual. Find some meaningful contribution to the resistance that fits with your circumstances. It can be protests, divesting, personal austerity or skip the vaycay to a red state.
