We’re at the point where Trump is certain his blatantly illegal and unpopular behavior will go unpunished and that he is free to continue doing whatever he chooses. Corruption and extortion is the coin of the realm Trump’s America. MAGA: You’re still okay with this? He hasn’t crossed the line yet?

Trump tried to bury this story on a Friday night, but it’s extremely important: He’s planning to take land on the border controlled by the Dept. of Interior and sign it over to Dept. of Defense so migrants “would have trespassed on a military installation,” resulting in harsher punishment.

The Trump has been purging senior military officers he deems disloyal. If you’re watching the same movie I am at some point there will be a citizen’s uprising against Trump’s crushing of American liberties and values and he will be calling out HIS military. Then what? Are you watching this MAGA?

Lots of complaints about Trump playing golf 25% of his time in office at his privately owned golf courses at great expense to US taxpayers. It occurs to me, though I may be late coming to this, that we would all be far better off if Trump played golf 100% of his time in office.

The objective isn’t focused on efficiency or outcome. The objective is to tear down gov’t thru widespread firings and disruption. That farmers can’t get a reliable weather forecast or a seasonal bridge loan is not a consideration. No more then what will the country do if there’s a measles outbreak.

The most plausible explanation for why Trump is not being hounded from office is that a substantial number of Americans agree with his views on immigrants,people of color, the evil being inflicted on them by government agencies, educators, and scientists. America has never been what it says it is.
