Trump Usurps Mamdani

Fresh off flipping his position on releasing the Epstein files, Trump II changed on his characterization of New York mayor elect Zohran Mamdani.  Trump II's recent election defeats have him searching for a way to manipulate independent voters back into his camp.

Independents joined in Fall 2024 for economic reasons and have been extremely disappointed in Trump's tampering with nearly everything, while ignoring ever increasing prices.  Independent voters fled the Red Team in a huge way causing recent election victory margins of 14-16%.  Those are mandates, anti-Trump mandates.

Trump II will do whatever he needs to in the present moment to reveal his greatness.  There are no consistent, underlying principles or foundational beliefs.  Every issue and event exists to reflect Trump II's magnificence and brilliance such that the world can bow down and say, "thank you Daddy."

Trump's earliest and biggest supporter, Marjorie Taylor Greene, is leaving Congress in January.  She offered this on social media:

“If I am cast aside by MAGA Inc and replaced by Neocons, Big Pharma, Big Tech, Military Industrial War Complex, foreign leaders, and the elite donor class that can’t even relate to real Americans, then many common Americans have been cast aside and replaced as well,”

Apparently, Marjorie saw the guest list for the Black-Tie White House dinner with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.  That's exactly who attended.  

Trump II needs Mamdani's popularity to rub off on him.  Trump needs to be seen as committed to alleviating what Mamdani has referred to as a "cost of living crisis."  

Today's bear hug in the Oval Office began Trump's usurping of Mamdani's biggest strength in order to make up for Donald's biggest weakness.  

Don't donate more than a pint of public goodwill, Zohran.  Trump will take it all.  

Future Kings Have All the Rights

The world has a split screen where both sides reveal powerful people protected from accountability for their crimes.  One side of the screen has the Jeffrey Epstein survivors asking yet again for justice to be meted for crimes committed over twenty eight years and involved over 1,000 victims..  

The other side has Trump II defending Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman for his country's brutal execution of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi.  Trump II spoke ill of the victim before saying "Things happen."  The Crown Prince referred to it as "a mistake."

Trump insults the living and the dead.  He pardons violent criminals, financial fraudsters and saved "the backside" of the Crown Prince (his words).

Trump spoke highly of the Crown Prince in his rambling speech at the U.S. Saudi Investment Conference.  It sounded similar to the way he has described Ghislaine Maxwell.  

Mohammed bin Salman has been Trump-habbed, as have the Jan 6 rioters.  Is Ghislaine next in Trump's "Just Us" irreality?

Trump II indicated the Crown Prince will be on the Board of Peace that will manage Gaza.  Should underage girls and journalists, be concerned?

Update 11-20-25:  Add execution of Congress members to Trump II's list of desires.

Trump Follows House Reds with Epstein Flip-Flop

Trump II was nearly ejected as lead dog in the Epstein files Iditarod.  As he faced the prospect of having his nose not far from Rep. Thomas Massie's rectum, Trump flip flopped.  

The Guardian reported:

... (Epstein) documents expose a reality less about a shadowy cabal and more about a system of power that operates in plain sight, indifferent to conviction or consequence.

Private equity profits fueled Epstein's predatory operation.  Apollo founder Leon Black provided $170 million to Epstein.  TechGods sought out Epstein, including Bill Gates, Elon Musk & Peter Thiel.

The billionaires that make government policy enjoy a certain level of protection from what might put ordinary Americans behind bars.   

Speaking of protection, Trump II will host a big dinner for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.  Trump does not want reporters asking about old controversies, Epstein or Khashoggi.  We will see if reporters comply....

Update 11-19-25:  The Hill reported:

“This is Trump, you know, at his narcissistic worst because it’s just the mere fact he can’t abide being on the losing side,” Former Trump White House lawyer Ty Cobb said in the interview Monday. 

“He could not abide the wholesale repudiation that was headed his way tomorrow when hundreds of Republicans defected and voted to reveal these documents,” he continued.

Trump's Rager Weekend, Hosting Creep Prince

Trump II's retaliatory rage is on overdrive this weekend.  The protector of pedophiles is aggressively fighting the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files and attacking one of the lead proponents of sharing that information with the American public.  

A former Trump pardon recipient (who said he would turn his life to good) was convicted of running yet another Ponzi scheme, stealing $40 million from his new clients and not paying the $229 million restitution to his prior victims.  

I'm sure Trump II, the digital Caligula, can spare another pardon for this repeat financial fraudster.

Trump went after yet another late night comedian and his FCC bootlicker promptly shared his boss' tantrum via his boss' anti-social media site.

Trump II will host the Saudi Crown Prince for a Black Tie dinner this Tuesday.  The guest list is not available on the White House website.  It will feature two of the top retaliators on the global stage, Trump II and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.  Both utilize the long arm of government to enact revenge on their enemies, protect their evil friends and personally profit excessively from the people they are supposed to serve.  

Update:  Trump II wrote on his anti-social media site:

"...House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files, because we have nothing to hide..."

Those Red Team House Whips must have whiplash from that Trump II flip flop. 

Trump II became a follower on releasing the Epstein files.

Update 11-20-25:  Add execution of Congress members to Trump II's list of desires.

Epstein Pot Boiling for Trump Frog

Trump II has one simple thing he can do to move the Epstein situation toward a conclusion, release the files.  The fact that he is doing anything but that is concerning.  It's as if he's sat in the warm Epstein pot for so long, Trump does not realize it's boiling.

The files will show the political giants and major funders from both Teams that Epstein cultivated.  It may or may not be clear which ones also preyed on Epstein's underage girls.  

"Remember when we learned that our wealthiest and most powerful people were connected to a guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring?"-J.D. Vance, TechGod 2021

Now, Trump II hates that people are talking about it.  The victims knew Trump was deep in the Epstein circle.   The government has consistently shunned Epstein's over 1,000 victims at every turn. That includes both Red and Blue political teams.

I wrote the following in August:

I imagine the Trump "Just Us" Department shopped the list of predators for Blue Team members and any never Trumpers of the Red version.

Trump just put in his retaliatory order with Pam Bondi.  He'd like the Larry Summers, Bill Clinton & Reid Hoffman.  And leave off the Leon Black, Ghislaine Maxwell & the Birthday Book.

Give the people the information, not some twisted version of Trump II's irreality.

Catering to Ghislaine

 CNN reported:

Rep. Jamie Raskin said he learned from a whistleblower that Ghislaine Maxwell is receiving special treatment in prison and is in the process of filing a commutation application.

Special treatment includes customized meals, visits by guests allowed to take their computers into the visit and communicate on behalf of Maxwell,  service dog in training for her to play with and special time in the prison exercise yard.  Ghislaine is reportedly working on a commutation letter as well.  

U.S. citizens hate a two tiered system of justice almost as much as they detest pedophiles.  Trump II promotes "Just Us" while protecting his former wingman's pedophile circle, where Donald sits firmly in the center.

As for why Trump II would give Maxwell such care and concern, consider this from ABC News:

"I want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump," Epstein wrote in a typo-riddled message to Maxwell in April 2011. "[Victim] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned." 

"I have been thinking about that ... " Maxwell replied.

Spoken like a true wing-man and wing-woman in spring 2011.   Does any NDA with that victim include all three names, Trump, Epstein & Maxwell?

Budget Shutdown Nears End, Pardon Shitdown Unceasing

Eight Blue Team Senators struck a deal to advance the funding bill and reopen government.  The over 40 day game of political chicken cost considerable political capital amongst independent voters.  Independents considered the Blue Team the equivalent of herpes, but Trump's mouth gonorrhea repulsed the non-MAGA majority. 

News reports indicate the government may reopen late this week.  That is if our "Savage Whim" President doesn't demolish the deal like he did to the White House East Wing.

Trump II's pardon shitdown, sold as "Just Us", continues in full force with his pardoning at least  seventy seven co-conspirators who tried to keep the Donald in the Oval Orifice come January 2021. 

The White House Office of Pardon Attorney has not updated their webpage since October 22, 2025.  

Disappointed supporters of the Blue Team may recall their cave to America's policy making billionaire class, comprised of private equity underwriters (PEU) and their new political influencer brethren, TechGods and CryptoBros. 

Blue Team Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema took turns saving private equity's preferred "carried interest" taxation.  

Back then I called the two teams, the Insane Reds and the Blue Lucys.  I'm not sure much has changed.

Now Congress can get down to the people's business.  That includes serving as a check on both the Presidency as well as the Supreme Court.  

It also means turning their attention back to voters, not catering to PEU Legends, TechGods and CryptoBros.  That bipartisan catering to policy making billionaires has gone on for far too long.

Update:  Trump wants to short SNAP recipients in November.  He offered two new ways for financiers to make bigger bank, 15 year car loans and 50 year mortgages.  Rising up the pardon list is Epstein's pedo concierge Ghislaine Maxwell.  

Trump's Assault on Rule of Law

A Ronald Reagan appointed judge resigned in order to speak out against Trump II, the digital Caligula.  

The judge said what news organizations and universities cannot, for fear of giant lawsuits.  Add assault on the rule of law to his history of sexual assault, assault on tasteful interior decorating, assault on historic preservation, assault on the memory of outstanding Americans, assault on conventions of losing elections gracefully, assault on judicial decisions via his pardonic whimsy......the list goes on and on in Biblical scroll like fashion.

Virtually everything Trump II does is an assault on something or someone.  I thank the Judge for his courageous act and for his naming the rectum in the room.

Update 11-20-25:  Add execution of Congress members to Trump II's list of desires.

Anatomy of a Shutdown

The demolition derby known as the longest government shutdown in history may end soon.  The game of political chicken wrecked a car each day as Senate Reds and Blues refused to veer from their crash trajectories.  Each day the Senators exited the wreck, seemingly unscathed.  

Election Day 2025 showed there to be internal damage as the public increasingly realizes our leaders care not about us and feel no pressure to show up and do their @#%&*!#$ jobs.

The team in charge of all three branches of government?  Independents fled from that group, the one they supported just one year ago.  Hispanics turned on their new party, repulsed by the government's treatment of Spanish speaking people with brown skin.  The Red team dismissed instances of U.S. citizens, even military veterans, being detained for days with no charges.  

The good news is people suffering had no impact on Trump II's golf schedule or his Great Gatsby Halloween soiree.  Trump golfed six times in October and celebrated his last round of the month with the demolition of the East Wing of the White House.  I guess he wants to make it whiter.

Congress should be feeling serious heat from constituents to do their job and fund government of the people, by the people and for the people.  That's not government of the policy making billionaire, by the policy making billionaire and for the policy making billionaire (PEU/TechGods/CryptoBros).

Update 11-9-25:  Trump II golfed on November 1st and again on the 8th.  He is golfing again today, for the eleventh time since the government shutdown began. 

The Senate reached a deal to end the government shutdown and a vote this evening will show if that deal passes.  The vote is currently underway according to the Senate live feed. One vote remains:

It will be the deciding vote.  There must be some serious offers being extended to this Senator.  

The final vote was a Yea, the bill passed and the end of the shutdown may be in sight.

Update 11-13-25:  Trump II's SBA Chief went on CNBC to offer nonsense regarding the shutdown.  She blamed the Blue Team for not caving sooner while Trump golfed and worked to keep the Epstein files from becoming public.

Patriot Melania Honors Predators

As Eric Prince called for the return of Colonialism and others want the return of the Aristocracy, First Lady Melania Trump, the wife of our digital Caligula, accepted the Fox Nation "Patriot of the Year" award.  I named her speech the "Ode to a Few."

There's a strong shout out to TechGods, the greater (Peter Thiel) and the lesser (VP J.D. Vance).  

Melania worked in a nod to employers, which includes private equity underwriters (PEU).   For fifteen years they've been known as "policy making billionaires." 

There's a tip of the hat to Trump II, builder of cities.  Trump's newest buildings are going up outside of the U.S. in the oil rich Middle East.

The "common good" arises from "their creation."  Not yours, not mine.

Note how God is completely absent from this speech and how many of God's powers have been usurped by TechGods trying to build the science fiction of their youth.  

Elon Musk deserves his $1 trillion pay package, recently approved by shareholders, because everything at Tesla is his creation.  Musk referred to Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) as "corporate terrorists" after they recommended a no vote on his pay package.  One can read his Tesla employee reviews on Glassdoor and know that Elon is missing significant knowledge about leadership, as are many of his fellow TechGods.  

Aristocracy is back.  TechGods have one simple task, to please Trump II, emotionally and monetarily.  As long as Daddy is happy, TechGods can garner huge chunks of federal business and tap Uncle Sam's wallet for $ billions. 

We know how much the government pays for a hammer.  How much might that "all night algorithm" fetch under a Trump approved deal?   Surely, someone at World Liberty Financial knows.

That which is natural and beautiful has virtually no relation to this administration, Trump's band of cabinet lackeys or his insufferable TechGod supporters.  TechGods are thrilled that they can dismantle freedoms and harm citizens for riches/status beyond belief.

From God's creation, many wonderful things can arise.  TechGods and Trump II intend to pilfer, naturally and inevitably.  It's anything but beautiful.  It's unGodly.

Trump Pardons Another Parasite

Trump II, the digital Caligula, pardoned two more fraudsters, the former Tennessee Speaker of the House and his former Chief of Staff.  Obviously, they are members of the political Red Team.  

The case involved setting up a corporation with a non-existent person as CEO to target government funds.  The real person running the organization had to leave his political advisor job due to racist and sexist e-mails.  The Speaker of the House exchanged sexually explicit texts with his staffer.

This pardoned pair set up a scheme to churn available government money for the benefit of a creepy former staff member.  That sounds on brand for Trump.  It also fits with the trajectory of our politically connected business climate that warmed significantly over the last fifteen years for private equity underwriters (PEU), TechGods and CryptoBros.

Red Team Tries Explaining Prices (like Biden)

House Speaker Mike Johnson tried to explain that food prices always go up.  What happened to supply and demand?  Flashback one month:

President Trump told the United Nations General Assembly late last month: “Grocery prices are down, mortgage rates are down, and inflation has been defeated.”

The Red Team got shellacked in Tuesday's elections with independent voters running away from Republican candidates.  I'm not sure Mike Johnson is going to win them back with his "food prices always go up" lecture.  

"Always go up" is the Trump mantra for the financial markets and he pried open 401(k) accounts for a spate of risky ventures, private equity, private credit, and crypto.  We'll see what Trump II, the digital Caligula and Mike Johnson say if those don't work out for retirees in the manner sold to them.  

When did Mike Johnson start using Trump's makeup?  I assume that's why his nose looks so different.  

I don't want to think about how it might have been applied.

Politics and sausage, eeeeewwwww......

Trump Evokes IT

Independent voters sent the political Red Team a huge message in yesterday's elections.  As usual, Trump II, pretended not to hear it.  The results did ignite his easily triggered, grossly excessive retaliatory impulses.    AND SO IT BEGINS

Stick a sock in it, old man.  Shut up for once and listen.  Independent voters, the group that swings elections, do not want you remaking everything in your image and purloining the public treasury for your family's personal wealth.  That began decades ago and it's taken many people time to realize the depths of the insider money funnel fueling both political teams.  Trump II made it obvious.

President IT ride your evil clown bus down the revenge ravine and back up the hill of spoils.  It's all you are capable of doing.  And that's why so many voted for anything but that...

Update 11-20-25:  Add execution of Congress members to Trump II's list of desires.

Blather: Trump Speaks & Speaks & Speaks

Now that CBS toed the line and allowed Trump II to blather spontaneously with no pesky interruptions, his Tower of Bullshit is nearly complete.  The news is to take direct quotes from Trump II and handle them as if they are fine crystal and a magnanimous gift from a King.  

When all the news stations become amplifiers for Trump's blatant nonsense his "Tower of Babble On" will be finished.  Any similarities between Trump's newest tower of toilets and an AI data center all are purposeful.  Neither are in touch with the real world, are voracious consumers of resources, hallucinate frequently and lack any semblance of an ethical, spiritual or moral center.

The January 6th Garden of Tourists sits in a special courtyard for news reporters to use for lunch breaks, when management allows.  Building vending machines only accept USD1 or $TRUMP payments.  Tips for Trump II are automatically included and will be used to fund his AI library.

The 13th floor is a private club for TechGods and CryptoBros, costing $10,000 a day per person.  That's pennies on the dollar each TechGod/CryptoBro stands to pull from the federal treasury under Trump II, the digital Caligula.

The news has a new job, dictation.  Given Trump II's nasty personality we can upgrade that job to prick-tation.   Bend over reporters and listen intently for Trump has a new line to insert.

While the regular news falls apart America's comedians regularly come to the rescue and shine the light on Trump's persistent and grandiose entitlement.  Thank God for them.

"Church and State" Flashback

Brandi Carlisle's new son "Church and State" has roots.  Nearly fifty years ago rock band U2 sprung from Irish religious conflict.  Their early songs had a distinct sound and often had religious themes.  

Around the same time conservative Christian groups formed in the United States.  Rev. Jerry Falwell started the Moral Majority and Rev. Pat Robertson established what is now Regent University. 

During the time Rev. Billy Graham allied with political leaders.  He later grew to rue this decision.

Billy Graham would have spoken less and studied more. As Billy Graham got older, he increasingly valued the life of the mind. Pragmatism and activism needed to be better balanced with more contemplation and deeper thought. 

The second regret was that he would have spent more time with his family. The demands of his work and extensive travel detrimentally impacted his family life. Both his wife and children have spoken transparently about the challenges they faced with a father and spouse who was so often absent. 

The third regret was not spending enough time in the spiritual nurture of his own soul and fellowship with other Christians who could have taught him, encouraged him, and rebuked him when necessary. 

The fourth regret may also be surprising. It was the regret of endorsing partisan politics. As a pastor to presidents and politicians, Billy Graham puts it this way, “There have been times I undoubtedly stepped over the line between politics and my calling as an evangelist.”

Christian Conservatives and U2 did not click.  Heavenly wisdom and earthly power usually mix poorly.

Those are the roots for "Church and State."  They exist in today's soil, the hardpan desert of Christian Nationalism, a harsh, violent Old Testament version where kings, jewels, armies, loyalty and obedience are prized and where Jesus, the One who taught us a better way, is shoveled to the side.

The roots exist in today's air, polluted by TechGods who have usurped God's domains.  God trusted creation to us, not inference machines (AI).  

God's heavenly promise of healing and wholeness in heaven is replaced by lurid TechGods wanting to live forever.  Revelations in The Bible has been twisted to keep government out of the TechGods business, which by their right is unfettered, unlimited and untaxed.

Some of us believe the TechGods next act (AI) will be legions more harmful than their last (social media).  

Some of us believe the people's government should protect us from clear evils, greed, violence (including from authorities), sexual predation, fraud, and persecution, religious and otherwise. 

Some of us believe faithfulness begins with  loving God and loving our neighbor and extends to keeping alive the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.   

I am grateful to Brandi Carlisle for taking me back and giving voice to the unheard and diminished in today's cacophonous environment, where politicians use religion to divide and manipulate.  

Loving God and loving your neighbor are nowhere to be seen in today's political environment.  How can that be in a State that wants a specific form of Church?  That church must not be real.

Trump's Weave (Not Hair Related)

Trump II offered several positions recently that I believe he wants to spread in lice like fashion to other areas.  First, restarting nuclear testing.  It's OK because "everyone else" is doing it, like the kids "6-7".  It's not much of stretch to steer that to the Senate where eliminating the filibuster is referred to as "the nuclear option." Trump wants detonations, everywhere, maybe 6 or 7 a week.

The second area where the Trump non-hair weave may be in play, Muslims.  Trump threatened to send troops to Nigeria to stop Muslims from killing Christians.  Nevermind the practicality or legality of his proposal.  There is a Muslim running for Mayor of New York City. Trump wants an image of Muslims killing Christians in people's heads as they go to the polls on election day.

The weave is also a good disguise for Trump's savage whims which have no consistent moral or logical foundation.  His retaliatory impulse rages 24 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  

There are no discernable behaviors or words showing knowledge of or commitment to the teachings of Christ.  Trump does not do service or follow-ship.  His iron will, when heated properly, also works well as a hair press.

Be the weave, Donald.....you can work in 6 or 7 ideas as you wave your hands.

Update:  The weave is a public diversion for backstage goings on.  Biden's pardon of someone he may not know, invalid.  Trump's pardon of someone who used $2 billion of WLFI USD1 stablecoin and who Trump doesn't know and pretends there is no question, same sorry thing.  

Politicians Red and Blue love PEU (private equity underwriters/policy making billionaires) and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one. 

Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards.  Trump speaks Pablum.  He offers blather.

Trump is Soooo Brat (the original definition)!

 Jesse wrote on Halloween:

Trump is acting in a rather erratic, and some would say bizarre, manner. I don't think this is as much of a departure from his past performance as some of his apologists may offer. 

It's important to remember how strongly his priorities are centered around what he most wants at the moment. 

He is intellectually lazy to a fault, and intolerant of any information that does not suit his preconceived notions which are remarkably uninformed. He makes things up as naturally as the average person breathes, and his sycophants imitate him. 

His respect for the Constitution and the rule of law is almost nil. And he appeals to others with the same sort of limited perspective. 

A recipe for disaster to be sure. And that's what makes it significant for us as investors. Ignore it if you wish, but at some point Cloud Cuckoo-land is going to come crashing down with severe real world consequences for the people are just trying to get by and make a living. 

But a significant portion of the American public is caught up in their rebellious fit, and seems determined to bring a wreckage of devices to fruition. This is what motivates a defiance of a reality they reject, preferring to substitute their own. 

There is plenty of blame to go around on both sides of the aisle. Make no mistake. But the impulse to reform is being strangled in a fog of engineered distractions and adversarial deceits. 

For a 250 year old, America has been acting like a petulant brat, for some time.

Trump II's series of wingman have risen to his defense war making.  Elon Musk was Doink, George Santos is Yank and Scott Bessent is Prinx to Trump's Pablum.  

Bessent's citing Obama's golfing as problematic is Trump level projection/deflection at its purest nonsense.  Trump's henchmen could write for the late night comedians.  Their material is that laughable.  

The British monarchy took concrete steps to deal with their Epstein problem while Trump II attempts to bury Epstein evidence in concrete.  

Maybe that's the reason for demolishing the East Wing.  They needed more square footage to dump all those files and videos.  Look for Trump II to have a hard hat on supervising the pour.  That's the only pour he cares about.

Quit Political Game of Chicken & Do Your Job

The political Red and Blue Teams are 27 days into their game of economic chicken.  Both sides want the public to believe they are not capable of resolving differences.  The answer is they are unwilling to do the job required of them.

Congress can walk and chew gum at the same time.  The never ending political campaign has turned every vote into a W or L.  Most people can recall the spoiled kid in their school who had to win at everything and would lie, cheat, harm or steal to make "a win" happen.   That can be seen in our elected officials.  

Get back to work.  Do your job.  Serve up your best work to Trump II and he'll either sign or veto the funding bill.  

Many corporate and political leaders today are those spoiled kids of yesterday.  Our country should be embarrassed, as should their parents.  After all, we raised them into their roles of public-private service.  

27 days of no empathy, no understanding, no courage and worst of all, no responsibility.  Quit tackling each other and tackle the problems facing the American people.  It's your flipping job.

Update 10-31-25:  Quit the finger pointing, get together and hammer out a way forward.  Do your ffffffffing job!!!!

Update 11-1-25:  Airline CEOs joined together in calling for Congress to get back to work.

From "Not Touching" to "Demolishing"

Trump II, the digital Caligula, went from adding a ballroom that would "not touch" the existing White House to demolishing the entire East Wing of the building.  The move came with none of the usual historical oversight.

Sounds like something a predator would do......

Speaking of predators, the financial kind are among the funders of the new ballroom/East Wing: 

...Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Meta, Google, Amazon, and Palantir. The guest list also featured oil billionaire Harold Hamm, Blackstone CEO Steve Schwarzman, and cryptocurrency entrepreneurs Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss.

71% of Independent voters are dissatisfied with the direction Trump is taking the country.  The group that swings elections has every right to be upset.  The takers take and take and take....

Update 10-31-25:  Trump II is 63 points more unpopular than February after cratering with young voters:

Trump went from a plus-eight net approval in February to a minus-55 net approval in October

The creep element, a core aspect of Trump II, has become more manic and magnified.  Apparently, young people have noticed.

TRUMP XIX 2092

Trump II posted yet another AI video that only a TechGod could love.  Both plan to live forever.  Both usurp God's word and creation nearly ceaselessly, given most of these folks do not sleep.  They generally are not in favor of their worker's sleeping or having a personal life.

Don't sleep, live forever, torture the little people...there is lore regarding such beasts.  

I'll venture the science fiction club has put more thought into 2092 than Trump.  It's clear the kind of future Trump, TechGods and PEU Legends wish to create, one where there are no restraints on their whims or predilections.  Lord, help us all.....

Push Donald, Push

It's not unusual for a 79 year old man to enjoy taking a badly needed dump.  Thanks to AI and Truth Social people have the opportunity to see Trump II's giant defecation make its way through the bowels of a fighter jet and fall on a mostly white crowd of people gathered in the street.  

It's not clear the location of Trump II's expulsionary fantasy given the signs are not in English, normally a requirement in MAGA world.  AI is yet to learn that, despite being "all knowing" like Trump II himself.

Another AI video pictures Blue Team leaders bowing to Trump the King, whose donned robe has fallen off.  

Trump says he wants to go to heaven.  He does not seem serious about improving his chances, not in the least.  You can't push your way in, even if you have legions of earthly followers.  

Red Team's "No Kings" Roots

The original orange tinted Republican expressed concern in 2014 over President Obama's executive orders as monarchical, kingly and unworthy of a democracy. House Speaker John Boehner threatened to sue over this violation.   Karl Rove and Senator Rand Paul got in on the characterization.

Boehner's successor in skin color was relatively restrained in his first White House term.  That went out the door for Trump II, the digital Caligula.  

Every American should be able to say they are against imperial power, indicate they oppose a monarch acting as the law contrary to passed legislation.

However, that is not the case.  Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards. 

The foundation of democracy should be more than Bronx Colors Nutmeg WPF06 and a spineless Roundtable.  

Red Team Future Executives

Trump II era Red Team politics has been grooming future leaders to carry on his divisive, selectively enriching policies.  

I long for the days of traditional conservatism, now a mere memory.

House Speaker Mike Johnson's list includes of conservative values includes "human dignity."  I wonder how he'd score the racist chats from Young Republicans who for the most part are channeling their party's CEO.  

You can't call any of this leadership on behalf of our Republic.  It's tribal win lose which is part and parcel to an election but needs to be set aside for governance to occur.

Oh and Congress, Get Back to Work!

Call Back the House, Get to Work

Citizen Trump had this view of the Presidency in past shutdowns:

TRUMP: But if there is a shutdown, I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the President of the United States. He’s the one that has to get people together. 

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Who’s going to bear the brunt of the responsibility if indeed there is a — is shutdown of our government? 

TRUMP: Well, if you say who gets fired, it always has to be the top. I mean, problems start from the top, and they have to get solved from the top. And the president’s the leader, and he’s got to get everybody in a room, and he’s got to lead.

Trump golfed twice instead of "getting people together" and fired government workers vs. those at the top.  One Red Team Senator called the firings punitive.  I would go further and call it abusive.

Politics is an insufficient way to explain our world, given its ever shifting sands, serial mistruths and mind numbing double standards.  

Congress can walk and chew gum at the same time.  Get back to work and do the people's business!

Update 10-14-25:  A recent poll showed:

Some 67% of the 1,154 respondents said Republicans deserve “at least a fair amount” of blame for the shutdown as it stretched into Day 10, while 63% said the same of Democrats. President Donald Trump also drew scrutiny with 63% saying he deserved a share of the blame.

Get back to work. 

Trump II: King of "Just Us" Comedy

So much of what Trump II, the digital Caligula, says is highly comedic. Trump dusted off the "lock him up" chant for a sitting governor and major city mayor. He went after a judge randomly assigned to the James Comey case, which may fall apart before it ever gets to trial.

Doing his stupid memes and just f-ing around...  It gets a belly laugh now and then.  That helps deal with the fatiguing nature of Trump's incessant whining and savage whiming.  

Leave Ranting Old Man Behind

Trump II continues his retaliation game even against judges he appointed.  His "ignoble irreality" has no patience for judicial appeals.  

Our nation's most recent insurrectionist uses the word insurrection to describe normal judicial procedure and decision making.  The days are dark and growing darker with each new Trump "savage whim."

This morning six C-130's flew in formation over our section of rural West Texas.  That sign occurred after 9-11 in the run up to wars with Afghanistan and Iraq.  Is it an indication for a looming attack on the "already obliterated" Iran?  Wrapping up the Hamas war front is another sign.  Israel has a pattern of buttoning up one conflict before engaging in another.

Reality matters not to Trump II, the digital Caligula.  Portland is "on fire" and "burning" with no visible smoke or flames.  A "radical left wing terrorist" assassinated Charlie Kirk, except the assassin had no ties to radical left wing groups.  DEI caused the passenger plane-Army helicopter crash over Reagan National but its not clear how DEI infiltrated the inaccurate altimeter in the Army chopper.

Normally when a perpetually ranting 79 year old man gets things wrong, they aren't the President of the United States.  Unfortunately, that is our situation and his staff, Congress and the Supremes have been hapless and helpless to do anything about it.  That needs to change, because Trump II isn't changing his ceaseless and ever escalating retaliations or his protection of convicted child sex offenders.

Update 10-8-25:  Former White House advisor Miles Taylor said Trump's putting soldiers in cities is to foment a reaction that would justify using troops domestically.  The Hill reported Taylor saying:

The Trump administration’s deployment of troops to U.S. cities is a “false flag” operation meant to provide a rationale for ”harsh crackdowns.” 

“I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop ‘left-wing’ terrorism. He is staging it.”

Update 10-11-25:   Trump II and his goon squad continue to appropriate Charlie Kirk for nefarious purposes.

“Trump deploys outrageous rhetoric to try to legitimate his unconstitutional overreach,” said Peter Shane, who teaches constitutional law at New York University. “Whether it’s the baseless withholding of funds from private institutions that fail to bend the knee or fantasizing about the use of cities with Democratic mayors to train the military, Trump is running roughshod over the laws and traditions that have long sustained a robust American democracy.”

Update 10-31-25:  Cattle ranchers in Red States may be ready to leave babbling old man behind after Trump II pushed Argentinian beef on top of a $40 billion bailout for his economic Quasimodo twin, Javier Milei.  

Update 11-20-25:  Add execution of Congress members to Trump II's list of desires.

DHS Tool for Trump II's Savage Whims

Trump II's ignoble irreality went into overdrive on the White House lawn.  His "Just Us" department did such a bad job stating the case for sending National Guard troops into Portland that a Trump appointed Judge rejected the legal basis for such a move.

Courts require evidence, i.e. more than an erroneous presidential assertion.  

DHS Chief Kristi Noem has it out for Bad Bunny, the halftime show entertainer, who was born in Puerto Rico, a U.S. territory.  People born in Puerto Rico are U.S. citizens, no different than Kristi Noem.  

An ICE raid on Super Bowl ticket holders may garner a few candidates for the Trump Gold Card.  There could be a big haul on the concession side, but does Noem want to hear blowback from wealthy seat holders not being able to buy drinks and munchies.  

Noem's statement about the NFL's sleep patterns is absurd. The organization already has trouble sleeping after the domestic terror attack that targeted their office in New York City.  

The DHS Chief might be better off redirecting her resources to young men who live nearly exclusively online, play violent video games and spend time on Discord being ironic.  She may wish to reduce their access to high powered weapons or intervene if they plan "to take someone out" as they have the chance.

To sum up, Portland, not burning.  Judge, selected by Trump.  Bad Bunny, U.S. citizen.  NFL, organization with no need for sleep cycles.  

Trump picked the judge that held up his appropriation of Oregon National Guard troops just as he picked Kristi Noem.  The judge did his job regardless of politics while Noem does her job exclusively to please her petulant boss, desperate to impose his savage whims.  

Our country needs more people like the judge and fewer people like Kristi Noem in important government positions.  God bless us all.

Update 10-7-25:  Politico reported on another Trump II enabler, "Just Us" Department Chief Pam Bondi.

Trump II Shanks Shutdown

Flashback (from CNN):

TRUMP: But if there is a shutdown, I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the President of the United States. He’s the one that has to get people together. 

 UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Who’s going to bear the brunt of the responsibility if indeed there is a — is shutdown of our government? 

TRUMP: Well, if you say who gets fired, it always has to be the top. I mean, problems start from the top, and they have to get solved from the top. And the president’s the leader, and he’s got to get everybody in a room, and he’s got to lead.

This has been today's lesson in the Trump Rule which compels him to say whatever he believes in the present moment will optimize his image.  You could play that back in front of him and he would say "I never said that.  That's AI."

Just as the video of Trump shanking a shot in front of the green is also AI.  True to form, Trump's standards for other Presidents do not apply to him.  He hit the course today instead of getting people together to reopen the government.

Welcome to crazy town where brains are broken every day.  To heal your brain remember the Trump rule:

Trump says in the present moment what he believes will optimize his image.

There is no other rule.  It has zero to do with reality or his developing prerogative state:

See E Fraenkel, The Dual State, pp xiii, 3, 71 (1941) (describing the way in which the creation of a ‘Prerogative State’ where the Executive ‘exercises unlimited arbitrariness … unchecked by any legal guarantees’ is incompatible with the rule of law)

Or the rules of golf....

Update 10-7-25:  Neither the President or Congress are doing their job as the shutdown nears Day 7..  Get together people!

Update 10-12-25:  Trump hit the links again for the second weekend in a row since the shutdown began.  Shank you very much for your attention to this matter.  

Musk "Remote Challenged" with Netflix Transcott

Brilliant inventor Elon Musk has targeted LGBTQ+ programming on Netflix with his call for a boycott.  Musk as the ability to watch 3,590 other shows that do not include the dreaded 1.7% of the population, transgendered people.  

Two hundred years ago Musk could've not paid the entry fee to see the carnival She-Male.  If Elon lived in the time of Joan of Arc would he have called for her banishment?

God has and continues to create people who do not fit neatly into strict male and female categories.  They deserve to be seen for themselves, both on and off screen.

Update 10-12-25:  The Guardian reported:

A prominent anti-DEI campaigner appointed by Meta in August as an adviser on AI bias has spent the weeks since his appointment spreading disinformation about shootings, transgender people, vaccines, crime, and protests.

Yet another reason for me to stay away from both social media and AI.

Trump's Nowhere Near Done

Trump II posted an AI video of himself as the Cowbell King of Death.  The bell tolls for Israel's enemies under Trump's ignoble irreality.

One might think his recent executive order on Qatar a slap on Israel's assassination attack in Doha, Qatar.  Not so.  It's for the future attack on Iran which former military experts suggest could happen in the next several weeks.

Trump and AI are perfect for one another as both are rife with errors but pretend to offer perfection.  

Trump II's Reign of Ignoble Irreality is clear for those with eyes to see and ears to hear.

Update:  My wise friend wrote:

The world is watching. These guys televise their malevolent madness. Is this the ultimate shakedown of "let us do what we want and you come aboard" OR we all end up with a RAPTURE? 

Don't you love it when the bunker class rolls the dice with nuclear war? Hollow Men rule the world.

Update:  AI video has quickly joined social media in proliferating widespread harm:

“Synthetic media machines, whether designed to extrude text, images or video, are a scourge on our information ecosystem,” Bender said. “Their outputs function analogously to an oil spill, flowing through connections of technical and social infrastructure, weakening and breaking relationships of trust.”

Trump II is a voracious consumer and spreader of same.  TechGods suck.   Those are the same Israel aligned TechGods Bibi Netanyahu is working with to get his messages spread.  

Trump/Netanyahu are working hard to wrap up Gaza so then go after Iran once again.

Update 10-5-25:  The Gaza wrap up effort is underway.  Israel's pattern is to end conflict on one front before adding a new one.  

Apex Usurper

The recent speeches to the gathering of America's top military officers was painful to watch. 

And the President declared that certain American cities can be used as 'training grounds for the military' to crush the enemies within. 

The masks are falling away, and what has been hidden is being revealed. 

Faustus, who embraced evil and shunned righteousness, became the foremost symbol of the misuse of free will, that sublime gift from God with its inherent opportunity to choose virtue and reject iniquity. 

Faustus had advanced beyond the level of a scarlet sinner — he was a conscious follower of the Prince of Darkness. The fact he could publicly project an Antichrist image with pride, having no fear of reprisal, and his seeming diabolical art of escaping all punishment when others who were considered heretics had burned at the stake for less, would certainly signal that an unnatural individual walked in their midst. It is true in many respects he assumed the role of the charlatan, yet how apropos, considering his willingness to follow the Father of Lies and deception. E.A. Bucchianeri, Faust: My Soul Be Damned for the World 

You may look away, but you can never again say you did not know. When the reckoning comes, it is going to be exceptionally dramatic, and memorable. 

Congress and the Supremes are feckless enablers of Trump's carnage and chaos.  The generals meeting occurred as Trump II's military prepares for another engagement with the "nuclear facilities totally obliterated" Iran.  

More 24k gold accoutrements adorn the White House walls every day.  Come January 2028 when Trump II has achieved his $200 billion net worth goal, will those pieces of gold get packed up and sent to Mar-a-Lago?  

Endless rewards for the loyal and ceaseless retaliation for everyone else.  That is the "savage whim" way of Trump II, the digital Caligula, who is bringing the Age of Usurpment to an apex. 

Trump usurps while Congress claps and the Supremes await their next dog treat.  And the Epstein files remain sealed behind lock and key in an out of date Mar-a-Lago bathroom.
