TEN MILLION more Americans uninsured by 2034. That’s the Congressional Budget Office’s estimate of Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” — not a Democratic campaign slogan.

“Pretend I’m on the ballot,” Trump says. He is, along with: An illegal war, high gas prices, ICE’s street murders, measles, crypto scams, explosive diarrhea after food safety cutbacks, concentration camps and pardons for cop beaters. When you vote for Republicans, you’re voting for all of that.

Trump’s past 24 hours of desperation:

— posts Sen. Tom Cotton’s cellphone number and tells people to call him over daylight saving time
— again tries to scam voters with fraudulent promises $5,000 checks to every adult citizen if Republicans win the House and Senate
— says if Democrats win it will be “a 1929 disaster” and an economic depression, essentially admitting he believes his term will lead to a Great Depression
— tells a Mobile, Alabama rally to close their eyes and “pretend I’m on the ballot”
— says he’s giving $100 checks to 20 million seniors

The system combines citizenship information with Americans’ Social Security data, and eligible voters (including naturalized citizens) have already been wrongly flagged as noncitizens. With the midterms just weeks away, the consequences of this are huge.

Trump hangs out at his golf course . . . across an Ocean, on a weekend boondoggle that required FIVE C5A Super Galaxy Flights to deliver his armored car and security brigade. I wonder how much that costs the Treasury, and how that might lost wealth might have benefited the country instead.

This is one of the biggest issues in our country — the rich keep tipping the scales, buying politicians, and rigging the tax system. Meanwhile, everyone else is stuck with medical debt, higher costs, and low wages. We need to make billionaires finally pay their fair share.

Trump can scribble “Lake America” on a map. Canada can close the Welland Canal. That 27-mile stretch and its 8 locks sit entirely in Ontario. It’s the only route connecting the upper Great Lakes to Lake Ontario—and from there, the Atlantic. That’s the geographical reality Trump can’t rename away.
