Must be a megalomaniac egotists nightmare. Get elected and all that craved attention turns to you, only to demonstrate to the world that you are a dishonest, greedy, vindictive and dim-witted person.

In retaliation for Trumps tariff tantrum, China just slapped a large tariff on US imports. This will “devastate” American farmers (Axios). The electoral map of the US is blue on the edges and red in the breadbasket. American farmers are definitely in the red. Sad, but hard to sympathize.

Things I didn’t want, but now wouldn’t live without: Leaf blower Hedge trimmer Battery chain saw Instant Pot (food steamer) Air fryer Microwave Color HD TV

Unsung patriotic hero: Michelle King, 30 year Social Security employee and acting Director, resigned rather than allow Doge goons access to citizens private information. She’s a beacon in the Trump chaos. Find out who will rehire her and patronize that company.

CNN news crawl: “Trump officials accidentally texted war plans to reporter.” Trump only hires the best people he could find in the Star Wars cantina.

I miss him and his VP.

Eugene Robinson is my journalistic hero. He warned us in October 2015 that, as a New Yorker, he had observed Trump over the years and warned us that Trump is a “dangerous ignoramus”. A majority of swing-state voters didn’t get the message.

Bastards! Other people voted for the Lyin’ King and now I have to learn Russian.

Tomorrow, the last day in February, is economic boycott day. Don’t purchase anything except from local businesses. But take it one step further. Go into a big box store and steal something.

Doomsday pandemic? Report: Three children in Congo died within 24 hours of eating a bat, and now others are dying. Don’t look for professional help from the US, we’re dismantling our government. New answer to the Colbert Questionert query “Most Dangerous animal?”.

Sympathies for those federal employees who unceremoniously lost their jobs to Musk’s rampage. Perverse humor: Statistically, slightly more than half who lost their jobs voted for Trump. The high cost of political stupidity.

Cutting fat from the federal government is a noble aim, but Musk is using a chain saw, not a scalpel. The pain is just beginning to set in. The GOP intent to raise the debt limit by trillions is revealing. We and future generations will pay, the 1% will profit.

Feral Frankie freaks at feeding time.

While laying groundwork for tax breaks for the 1%, the Scumbag Millionaire has just imposed a sneak tax increase for the American consumer disguised as tariffs on goods from Canada, Mexico and China. We, the consumers, are the big losers.

Feeling good about my “dry January”. Decided to extend it until Trump leaves office, one way or another. On that day, huge wet celebration!
