Honest to God, you can’t make this stuff up. GOP Politicians are lower than whale shit - and that is low indeed.

If we survive this episode of Republican idiocy, there are going to have to be a lot of new laws made that will prevent this kind of oligarchic takeover of the government.

If anyone is still unsure or uncertain that this man is at MINIMUM a narcissist…this picture says it all. That is disdain. He disdains the existence of all the rest of us…hates his voters the most. I very much want to punch him.

Paul Krugman has a great piece up today on his substack regarding why trump has such animus towards Canada.

I’m a huge fan of Paul Krugman. I like economic advisers who have won Nobel Peace Prizes, not advisers like Peter Navarro who are convicted felons.

I guess if you search hard enough you can find officials without a sex scandal, a financial scandal, a history of anti-semitism or racism, or a record of substance abuse in a senior position. But it isn’t easy. It really looks as if being vile is a fundamental job qualification.
