What a dick. Break things = hurt people!

"Trump and his team are like playground thugs in their crudity and rudeness. But this is the sound of things breaking ... that is what cultural revolution means"

**Crudités

Does he know even the Chinese think the Cultural Revolution wasn't so great?

Has a bit of an air of "Mussolini made the trains run on time", doesn't it?

Good Lord. This is mental.

This gibbering fool gets everything wrong - everything. How is that even possible? Here are a few of his worst howlers:
1. There was no 'smart money' on a 2nd Trump term being mild & conciliatory. Everyone expected the worst, because he promised it. Elon bought him the presidency.

2. Trump isn't 'moving fast'; he lumbers or rides around on a golf course about every 3rd day, cheating as he goes. Elon's gamer-troll army is moving erratically and definitely breaking things; that is not something to salivate over, as this goof seems to be doing.

3. Trump is not a cultural revolutionary. He's as reactionary and 1950's as they come. He has never been reconciled to a world in which people of color walk freely, and almost all women laugh at him. This makes him Angry Trump. A grumpy lazy old man.

Trump has appointed a cabinet of sycophants and incompetents, with predictable results. He is signing off on human rights violations without even reading them. He spent several days this week raging about an unflattering portrait of himself.

Trump's bizarre remarks about Greenland, Canada, the Panama Canal, etc. have caused terrible damage to international relations. This nitwit Jenkins is just making things up, and clearly finds the hobby titillating. He can keep his twitchy imaginings to himself as far as I'm concerned.

Always in error, never in doubt.
What will we do without him?

telson.bsky.social•68 days ago

Not yet 82.
With luck many more idiocies to come.

Why does the Guardian continue to pay him for this crap?
