Steven Cheung claims 250,000 showed up for Trump’s birthday perade. What do you think?

On this Flag Day let’s remember that to Trump it’s just another prop to be exploited.

Later today Pope Leo XIV will speak to the American people by video at Rate Field in Chicago. His Taconess is very strong that the Pope will not steal the thunder from his perade.

DHS claims “Senator Padilla chose disrespectful political theatre. . .” DHS secretary Kristi Noem doesn’t believe in political theatre.

This is what happens to a United States senator when he tried to ask questions of DHD Secretary Kristi Noem at a press conference. Welcome to Trump’s Amerika.

Leon deleted this but it won’t be enough. He’ll need to crawl. As I’ve said before, Musk really, really needs taxpayer dollars.

Trump doesn’t like dogs. Never owned one apparently. How many times has he disparagingly used the phrase “like a dog”? He’s spoken of people who’ve died, choked, sweated and been fired like a dog. Despite all that, I think I’ve found the perfect companion for him.

What makes Trump especially dangerous is he 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 believe he’s on a mission from God. And MAGA does too.

Trump displaying a picture he claimed showed dead white South African farmers. The picture is actually from the war in Congo. What an embarrassment he is.

Another example of the make-believe world in which Trump lives. Incredibly sad, and potentially dangerous.

“As a construction person I'm seeing perfect marble. This is what they call perfecto … and we appreciate those camels, I haven’t seen camels like that in a long time.” What an embarrassment he is.

Trump last August: “We're going to have no tax on seniors, Social Security. . . Very simple.” Not simple enough for Trump’s one big beautiful bill.

Sound familiar? It should. His tariffs would pay down the national debt, remember? Instead, the debt rose $7.8 trillion while he was in office. Tired of all the winning.

Trump: “The United States is the hottest country, with the exception of your country, right? I'm not going to take that on. No, Mohammed, I will not take that on.” MAGA voted for this.

So a year ago, when Biden was president, it was a Trump stock market. But now that Trump’s been in office for over 100 days, it’s Biden’s stock market. How stupid would you have to be to buy that?

Trump on Ben Carson, 2016: “super low energy, right? He's super low. Super low energy. We need tremendous energy.” Tremendous energy.

Trump’s asked why he thought it important to go the Pope’s funeral. His answer: Because he won the Catholic vote. Always about him, isn’t it?

“I used to think Trump was an 11-year-old, an undeveloped school-yard bully. I was off by about 10 years. His needs are more primitive, an infantile hunger for approval and praise, a craving that can never be satisfied.” Author and psychiatrist Charles Krauthammer

Thank heaven Trump’s addressing the most important issues confronting Americans. Who cares about trillions of dollars in savings lost because of his stupidity?

Less than a week ago, Trump bragged “MY POLICIES WILL NEVER CHANGE.” He was lying as usual. His flunkies applaud him as courageous as he lurches from one flip flop after another. We’re not supposed to notice.

Trump now says he was being sarcastic when he claimed he’d settle the war in Ukraine within 24 hours. Here’s the no-sarcasm receipt. You be the judge.

Our markets are crumbling, but that’s not true everywhere. Trump may well be named Russia’s Man of the Year, which will go well with that Michigan’s Man of the Year award he brags about.

I can remember when a message like this would never - never! - have come from a person holding the title of Senior Advisor to the President of the United States. But that was when Presidents of the United States were sane.

How many of you find it reassuring that a former Russian president is cheering on a U.S. president? Trump’s talked for years about peace through strength. What he’s delivering is peace through acquiescence.
