So, it's come down to this.
Donald Trump is not just from Professional "Wrestling," where everyone understands the "wrestlers" are not really wrestling, where they are not really hitting each other or landing on each other--we can see all that. It's all just for fun. He IS that grotesque not to be thought of as real. He's simply the theater of the absurd. Just a spectacle. Nothing real.
As Peter Baker said in his Washington Post article:
"OK, so President Trump’s name is in the Jeffrey Epstein files. But who put it there? Could it possibly have been Barack Obama from his prison cell? Or a tranquilized Hillary Clinton? Oh wait, maybe it was etched onto the documents by Joe Biden’s magical autopen."
So, there's no there there.
It's a willful suspension of disbelief.
Even his most brain dead fans are in on the joke.
He calls the Chairman of the Federal Reserve "stupid," which manifestly Jerome Powell is not. He may be a lot of things, but the one thing Powell is not, is stupid. And in the next breath Mr. Trump asks, "Who was dumb enough to appoint that guy head of the Fed?" Uh, (tug on Trump's sleeve) That was you who appointed Mr. Powell.
Oh, well, don't take Trump literally.
Trump accuses a former President of treason, a former rival of being "crooked," or small or "sleepy" or "low energy."
Certainly, one thing you cannot accuse Mr. Trump of is being "low energy." He's always spewing. Nothing halting about him, but plenty that's lame.
He has never really been anything different.
The wonder is not Trump. It's his fans.
What is with his fans?
They see in him whatever they want to see: He is the champion of Israel, protector of the Jews, defender of the Evangelicals, thwarter of abortionists, the magician who transformed the Supreme Court from woke to Inquistion star chamber (true that), macho man who wants more concussions in the NFL, and wants the Redskins to be guilty but alive again, irresistible seducer of women,

grinning good ol' boy, blonde Nordic Wagnerian hero of the Ring trilogy, champion of white trash, uneducated who was himself, a brilliant student at an Ivy League school who has "all the best words."
He is the ultimate American berserk.
He is our dark demons, not our better angels.
He is the king of devastation, master of mayhem, the Amazing Hulk.
Oh, how we'll miss him when he's gone.
Jerome Powell is dumb as a brick. I had a number of friends who did not have college degrees say to me in 2021 doesn’t basic economics imply if you increase the money supply doesn’t that cause inflation. Any somewhat intelligent person understand the basic economic fact that too much money chasing limited supplies will drive up prices. I was going to post at the time a chart of M2 and M3 money supply and call Powell out as idiot in 2021 but I didn’t have the audacity, Now I can safely state Powell is an idiot.
ReplyDeleteAnd why don’t you post photos of Hamas supporting leftists who crave the death of Jews and the seizure of private property? You are stuck in a 1941 to 1968 time warp. The modern day Nazis are leftist Hamas supporters. Your continued efforts to evoke Hitler and Nazis to critique MAGA are juvenile and disconnected from current reality.
ReplyDeleteOh, for a moment I thought yol would not connect Powell to hamas and the end of the Jews! But you came around. And if Powell is dumb as a brick what of the man who appointed him?
ReplyDeleteBOT Anon: Your AI programmers really can do better.
ReplyDeletePunch in: Trump is a phony who appointed Jerome Powell, who Trump now says is stupid.
Algorithm: Track to Jerome Powell is dumb as a brick. Hamas, leftist, elitist, Ivy League=death of the Jewish people.
Seems to be a jump off the rails from the "What about other stupid people" to the parallel track of "Jewish people face annihilation!"
HAL is slipping into "Mary Had A Little Lamb..." (See the movie "2001")
