President Trump railed against a recent Fox News on Friday, calling it “phony” and declaring his former favorite news network a “group of haters” for showing him trailing his Democratic opponent Joe Biden by the widest margin seen so far this year.
I know better, but so many times when I read news reports like this, I find myself saying out loud, “Oh, grow the fuck up!” As though he could. More often, it’s “Shut up! Just shut up!”
But luckily John Roberts is there to help. By postponing the DACA decision (it was not a loss just a try again) Trump has a huge talking point to rally his racist host into the next election. Both in the issue of immigration as in the composition of the SC.
He thought he had a tame SCOTUS and it turns out that they’re only tame part of the time. He thought he had a tame news network and it turns out they’re only tame part of the time. He thought he had a tame National Security Advisor and it turns out he was only tame part of the time. Hopefully he’ll find out that his tame electorate is not tame at all.
Trump is mentally ill. He is a danger to himself (equal to America in his mind) and others (black, brown, hispanic, asian, and anyone who doesn’t want to catch covid). I am authorizing a 72 hour psychiatric hold and appointing a guardian ad litem, and will make my ruling on permanent guardianship in one week.
It’s one of life’s little ironies that their polling is one of the few things that isn’t phony on FOX. As far as I know it’s considered a serious, legit poll. What should really shock him is that even his beloved Rasmussen sometimes lately shows him like 12 points down on approval. That’s cataclysmic, since they usually have him up around 50 percent.
If we had tied a bar magnet across his shoulders and placed stator windings around his grave, we could be cheaply generating electricity. It would have to be rectified to DC and then processed to 60 Hertz, because he’s spinning waaaay too fast.
It works both ways. Those affected by DACA have been put on notice that they can stay in the country if and only Biden is elected. Literally, it’s up to them to maintain their status. If that doesn’t drive greater participation of a group composed of almost 100% Biden voters, I dont know what would.
