I am very surprised that Trump's approval ratings are continuing to trend down past their old floor. Maybe some MAGA faithful are loosing their religion??? www.natesilver.net/p/trump-appr... Allot of people don't like Nate's commentary, me included, but his statistics are as accurate as any.

How popular is Donald Trump?

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

The base case for financial markets seems to be: Trump will stop being crazy imeadiately, peace will break out in the middle east in the next week or two and AI will generate record smashing profits in the next year or two. Seems a tad optimistic to me.

I have concluded 'libertarianism' is a myth. 'I'll be responsible for me, you be responsible for you,' does not exist in the real world. People who are irresponsible do not feel responsible for ANYTHING, people who are responsible feel responsible for EVERYTHING.

For a guy who's, ostensibly, a shrewd political operator, John Roberts is doing a surprising amount to move mainstream Democrats and independents into the Reform the Court camp. A few long years ago, holding that view made me a radical outlier. Now it's nearly a candidate litmus test.

Rather than rubberneck at the inevitable implosion of the Platner campaign in Maine, I'd urge everyone to focus on another swing-state or even red-state Senate race that we might actually win. Ohio and Michigan are toss-ups and we have a fighting chance in Iowa, Texas and Alaska too.

Don't call it "expanding" SCOTUS. And, for God's sake, don't call it "court-packing." Call it **right-sizing** the Court. (There are 13 circuits now -- not the 9 circuits there were when it was set at 9 justices 157 effing yrs ago!) Or call it *modernizing* the Court. Thank you.
