On The Cusp Of Trump II, A Way To Make Sense Of The Madness

But they will never look at this as a negative. They’ve been so programmed that the entire mess we’re about to receive will be acknowledged with ‘Thank you, sir, may I have another?’

When food prices don’t go down, but in fact go up, it’ll be everything I can do with my customers not to make comment.

There was a survey yesterday (sorry no time to find the link) where most adults in the US do not think food prices will actually go down in Trump’s admin. THEN WHY DID YOU VOTE FOR TFG?

Because they were convinced by his hypnotic statements that they WOULD go down. That he retracted it later, was well after the ballots had been cast.

Yes, he lied to get their votes and they were stupid enough to fall for it.

I intend to start asking them at the end of day one.

Why are eggs still expensive?
Why is the stock market still falling?
Why are gas prices rising?
Why is there still war in Ukraine?

By MAGA reasoning, Trump is a failure at the end of day one.

The action, aimed at inmates who received harsher sentences based on old disparities in drug laws, will be the broadest commutation of individual sentences ever issued by a U.S. president.

“This action is an important step toward righting historic wrongs, correcting sentencing disparities and providing deserving individuals the opportunity to return to their families and communities after spending far too much time behind bars,” Mr. Biden said in a statement.

Garland’s quote has got to be the most conservative thing ever said.

If you want to know how a liberal should think, take his quote, replace the word norms with “what is right:”

It is the obligation of each of us to DO THE RIGHT THING, not only when it is easy, but also when it is hard, especially when it is hard. It is the obligation of each of us to FIGHT FOR OUR VALUES, even when and especially when the circumstances we face are not EASY.

Anyone who values norms over right and wrong, over basic human values, that is someone who is deeply conservative, and deeply comfortable in the status quo.

Another pragmatic pol that seeks to influence and moderate Donald Trump. Just like Fetterman. Kissing of Trump’s ring should not be interpreted like a self-serving act of a weasel just looking to save his own ass.

“It is the obligation of each of us to follow our norms, not only when it is easy, but also when it is hard, especially when it is hard. It is the obligation of each of us to adhere to our norms, even when and especially when the circumstances we face are not normal.” –Attorney General Merrick Garland,

It’s official. Garland is a fucking moron. This useless, clueless, worthless fool has learned absolutely NOTHING. If we ever do end up in a hot civil war with the fascists, I want him on the other side. 100% responsible for the calamity we’re about to endure.

Some advice, courtesy of Mike and the Mechanics:

“Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel

Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still”

By MAGA reasoning, Trump cannot fail, if things are not going well is someone else fault.

Because, like the “economic anxiety” in 2016, the price of eggs wasn’t the real reason why they voted for TSFF. That’s the excuse. The real reason was quantity of melanin and number of X chromosomes in the candidates.
