It’s not that nothing is happening to stop this crap. But we have unrealistic expectations about how fast things can happen as well as how much is actually ring addressed. Stay calm, stay engaged and stay positive. He’s hoping we will tire or shut up.

In fact we are not tolerating it. We aren’t powerless but to keep talking about everything. Epstein and corruption are going to be huge. You’ll know when it gets huge when the republicans start accusing democrats of the same things he is guilty of.

Bill Clinton was impressive, really. He was able to campaign and win. He was smart as hell. He was a bit of a dog, yeah. He knew what he was doing. I didn’t always agree with him. And the fact that his very existence bothers Trump thrills me.

How does supporting feeble efforts by a lying criminal solve the issue? War is complicated and foreign affairs are delicate, complex and require seasoned professionals to accomplish anything. Trump is NOT a negotiator or a deal maker. Our options are limited and we shouldn’t expect results.

Yes! First, find a serious president who plans his state meetings (these take months to plan if you are serious) with principles to uphold, goals and aspirations, making clear what is hoped to occur. Make it a requirement that Ukraine be in Alaska. Then tell the world Russia has no plan to end it.

Indeed, but they still try to define what makes people vote. Go figure.
bcbird.bsky.social (@bcbird.bsky.social) reply parent
People vote the ways they do because their parents voted that way, their spouse votes that way, the ads on TV look good, the candidate’s last name like looks familiar, etc. Only columnists and political scientists think people vote because they really tv light it through.

Trump sees tariffs as a way to pay for tax breaks to billionaires. He has said as much. He doesn’t give a rat butt if that means taking even more money out of the economy in the form of inflated prices for every American. He has so many believing it, too, that countries pay the tariffs. They don’t.
