Go Big or Go TACO I long ago moved away from leading Morning Memo with crazy shit Trump says, but over the last 48 hours he’s become so unhinged, erratic, and cartoonishly bombastic about an ongoing regional war in one of the cradles of civilization that it feels worth noting for posterity’s sake.

Three weeks of the war in Iran could have funded vision, hearing, and dental coverage for every senior in America on Medicare.
The trade-off is unacceptable. The Republican Party does not care about American citizens. We could have had universal healthcare all these years.
FUN FACT
In Canada, dental care is now free. We’re behind and losing.

As the NYT notes, the newly revealed texts create a new bind for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), “who is dangerously close to losing what is left of his tiny majority and cannot afford the resignation of another Republican.”

He’s completely insane now, but I guess we knew that already. Oil should be at least $200 a barrel and gas at least $8 a gallon by summer.

I was promised the apocalypse would be exciting, with doomsday devices, mushroom clouds, zombies, and galloping horsemen.
This is the dumbest apocalypse ever. Zero stars.

bar that the US President states intent on meeting.
IOW, under US definitions, it’s quite hard to commit genocide, but Trump is managing to clear that high bar.

Chump is enjoying playing with Iran and the global order. He gets endless do-overs, so he’s never really boxed in or out of options. Even an utter failure and withdrawal with his tail between his legs will get endless massaging (for years, decades if necessary) by all RW outlets until it becomes an honorable detente; or a casus belli to do it all over again.

And it is quite clear that the entire GOP Congress supports CF-DJT.
Have any of them said, “You know, maybe destroying the planet is not such a good idea?”
