I heard about the President being billed for services in an interview with Laura Bush.

We’re going to see how that plays in Congress. Way too many special interests.

So the short answer is no?

Best summary I’ve read.

That’s exactly what’s going on. He only wants yes men.

I agree. Although I’m never really sure in these situations.

I never tweeted myself but I liked to follow a couple of local news outlets and out local government agencies for public notices and emergencies. I gave up when stuff from Elon and a bunch of right wing stuff populated my feed. I rarely saw anything of interest. I started using Facebook for that. At least the local stuff pops up in addition to the crazy stuff.

I’ve been seeing this kind of stuff for the last month. Of course most of my friends and family think Donald Trump is the annoited one.

Definitely an interesting thought experiment. It will be interesting to see if the tariffs actually happen how they will impact the economy. I work in telecommunications and most of the equipment we use is manufactured in China, regardless of the supplier. Any tariffs will impact about 70% or the material we use for projects.

I look for Trump to turn on everyone. It’s the only thing he’s consistently done his entire life.

It’s pretty disappointing.

I tried to watch it earlier this evening. It was brutal. He can’t finish a thought. I would love to fact check some of the claims he made but it would be nearly impossible without a room full of analysts.

Kind of like in “The Walking Dead” comics when Carl is telling his children about all of the events of the past?

There are plenty of E-Bibles (pardon my terrible term) available on the Internet for free since many translations are in the public domain. Edit: All of the other stuff is available via webpages, multiple e-book formats, and on webpages. Again, it’s all public domain.

I worked at a major public university for 14 years during the late 90s / early 00s. This happens more than people realize.

Recently he is looking confused and lost more often than not.

Is this the visit he made with Franklin Graham I read about in the news? I saw some Facebook posts claiming he brought several trucks of supplies and a tanker truck full of fuel that he paid for and the post also claimed he donated $4 million dollars of his personal money to the relief effort. I have a hard time believing this and have not been able to find any credible news sources that credits Trump with paying for the supplies, the fuel, or making the donations. If anyone has anything about this, please share.

Also, that weird centaur stance makes it look like he’s either photoshopped into the image or supported by a stick. I can’t decide which.

This is probably just theater. Iran can’t look weak but they really don’t want to pike the bear.

Very few people can recognize that level of dissonance. They have twisted stuff in their minds so long it’s impossible to see it.

I have so many questions.
