And the whole Trump Presidency is rife with historically large conflicts of interest he and his family profit from. Feels like a Matthew 7:3–5 scenario.

Some processes are imperfect, and some experts may have conflicts of interest. But this administration’s approach seems to be: Find the worst 1%, discredit the other 99%, and then hand power to people with zero expertise with exact opposite view out of spite. That’s not reform. That’s sabotage.

Why is there so much death, destruction, and chaos when Trump is in office? Trying to figure out the common thread. What can explain it?

Directionally, Trump 2.0 completely misaligned with what MAGA “voted for”. surveillance state ⬆️ war ⬆️ deficits ⬆️ corruption ⬆️ lawfare ⬆️ economy ⬇️ states rights ⬇️ personal freedoms ⬇️ epstein disclosures ⬇️ except they got terrorizing immigrants and lgbtq folks and deregulation.

The only reasonable inference to make from this is these are the only four things in the bill that Americans broadly support and the hundreds of other things and the bill in general is NOT.

History is clear: federal troops enter states when invited (1992 LA) or to stop rights violations (Selma). Forcing troops into a state against its will? That’s not “precedent” — that’s George III redux.

Stephen Miller is making Trump look BAD! Not only is he terrible on TV, but Trump allowing him to dictate policy so much makes Trump look WEAK! Miller with his high profile ICE raids, use of military against protesters, and picking a fight with Newsom who is GOOD on TV will hurt Trump and help Dems!

So Trump believes that the deep-state thought of a plan to execute Biden, then create a clone or robot that gradually loses its ability to communicate and refuses to drop out, and gets him reelected? He’s gonna lead to MAGA conspiracies about himself being some type of bot/clone/agent at this rate.

Stop saying TACO, guys. It's really mean. Clearly you are hurting his feelings and you know that. Just stop! No more TACO! Should not be writing TACO and making it trend. That is mean. Some people write TACO like 4 or more times in a post. TACO!

2025 human/automation productivity is ~70/30. In 5 years it might flip and be 30/70, but the total production is 3x 2025, meaning human productivity actually increases by almost 30%. We just become smaller piece of much larger pie.

Only MAGA Republicans can unironically talk about how obvious it was that Biden was too old and cognitively diminished to continue serving as POTUS while actively electing and defending a demonstrably mentally ill octogenarian with far worse cognitive deficits.

The vile reactions from some MAGA supporters to Biden’s cancer diagnosis are appalling. Democrats took action and replaced a sitting president who wouldn’t step down. MAGA whined about that—then turned around and doubled down on their clearly senile octogenarian. They have no ground to stand on.

I was so confused how they read so deep into 8647 to think 86 meant to kill until I learned they invented 8646 and they were projecting their own meaning. Same accounts whining about Comey were posting 8646 not long ago!

Comey is so f’n hapless—wins the 2016 election for Trump, but when Trump demands a pledge of absolute loyalty he refuses, so Trump throws him away. Now he posts a pic of what he imagines is probably like a bday or something and will get sent to El Salvador.

The legal standard for bribery and corruption does not require an explicit quid pro quo. Though we’ll almost certainly see one emerge and those currently defending this by claiming there’s no obvious quid pro quo will have moved on to their next exercise in cognitive dissonance.

The only defense ever given to Trump’s corruption is whataboutism about Biden—but the largest total imaginary grift of the Biden family is orders of magnitude less than the known daily grift of the Trump family.

If Qatar gives $400M gift, they expect much more than $400M in benefit. Better believe he's not giving them free nights at Trump hotels in return--what he gives them comes from selling out the interests of the American people.

The poster-child for the word "transactional" just accepted a $400M gift from Qatar. Which means that Qatar expects to benefit a minimum of $400M in return for the gesture (but likely 10-100x more). Just so you know, that value comes from trading away the interests of everyday Americans.

My sister and I used to fight over who got to bring the laundry basket upstairs for my mom. It was my turn, so I did it. Out of spite, my sister went to take it back down to come up again. But she fell and broke her collar bone. All this is to say, Trump wants to take the S&P 500 to 3800 (1/20/21).

The fact that Republicans will often oppose Trump before leaving (one way or another) shows how each Republican is truly opposed to Trump privately but are all captive out of fear—why be in Congress if you have no power to impact policy? They seek power but will never have it.
