The man is an idiot. Unfortunately, we average American citizens (and the rest of the world) are paying the price for the other idiots who voted for him.

(P.S. your writing assistant looks very competent!)

He thinks the world is a fucking supermarket! I’ll have one of those, get that one next time. Bad things happen if you try to do it all at once…like bad things are not happening now?!!! Lost servicemen and women, dead children and innocent civilians, domestic terrorism, fucked economies!!

Psychopath down to the skin flaking off his body as he talks and walks.

He and his family need to be put on trial and stripped of all the money they have stolen from the American people.

And let those trials be televised, please.

Yes, all authoritarians fall, but it takes a long time. Usually decades. We have reached the point where his insanity, psychopathy and sadism must be stopped. Attacking Iran during their holy month of Ramadan and killing their Supreme Leader has ignited a holy war for the Shia Muslims and martyred Khomani. Trump has no clue what he has madly blundered into. I'm no longer sure America can count on the midterms to block his power. This is utter madness that our children will pay for. He has to be stopped before the damage is unreversable.

Why didn't Congress rein him in by maintaining their right, their *obligation,* to oversee acts of war?!? I don't just blame Trump, I blame every representative who voted against this!

I mourn for Cuba. He will turn it into a strip joint full of brothels....I have been to Cuba. The kindest most educated people on earth. Will someone stand up for them? I think so!!!

Once again, Heather, yet another insightful and thoughtful post. I don't know how Americans can sit and listen to this man's childish rants. I can't help thinking that the orange buffoon started the war in order to divert attention away from the Epstein files. It's all about his fragile ego.

We are prisoners, really, as he is surrounded by a moat of enablers. Everyone of them, from the silent Susie Wiles to the bombastic Hogsbreath, all surrounding the child-king and getting their backroom deals so that when it all falls apart, their offshore accounts will be filled and their children in private schools.

He is playing monopoly with the countries of the world….big real estate magnate🤮

I am angrier and angrier at representatives who could stop this and let it go on and on despite looking like clowns to the rest of the world.🤡. Speaking to my republican reps is like banging my head against a stone wall…..they must GO.

You are the first person I’be heard mention this Missile Corp meeting and the $20B for oil tanker insurance. He’s dipping into our tax money like there is pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

The "businessman" who has numerous bankruptcies, failed offerings, a history of cutting corners, non-payment of vendors, racism, misogyny, and complete lack of ethics is now doing the same thing to our country that he did in his prior life. And we're surprised why?

It's interesting that the Arab countries in the region curried favor with him and gave him shinny objects and money under the table and are now finding out he and BiBi are stabbing them in the back with a war that seems to be spiraling out of control. How long will they put up with this............time will tell. If they are not already sick of him, their citizens under their control may soon be as bombs fall on them too and when the citizens get pissed, look out!

It would be comforting to think that this scenario is a clown limo story, say, DUMB, DUMBER, and DUMBEST (Little Marco, Horrible Hegseth and Hitler Wannabe), but the stakes are more THE DAY AFTER, I’m so afraid to say. Thanks again for digging into the muck for us, Heather.

Trumpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Trumpty Dumpty had a great fall

All the King's horses and all the King's men

Couldn't put Trumpty back together again.

Amen

Trump demanding complete and unconditional surrender from Iran, and the people of Iran ever willing to fight to the death as martyrs in a war against Israel and America, is the description of a forever war. God save us all from this insanity!

One of our many problems is the media. While you write concise, factual articles about this truly pathetic man they simply do not. Let’s imagine for a moment the fervor that would ensue if Biden had gone off script during a pretty consequential moment and talked for many painful minutes about gold drapes. Not just drapes but gold ones. Slipping in that he likes gold as if the White House interior looking like a 1980s Gucci shirt or the set of Tony Montanas house wasn’t clue enough. Let’s imagine the outrage from the cunts at Fox.

We are lost.

Thank you, Ms. Reese.

This is all so scary ! I just read another article from a reporter who has studied the financial side of Jeffrey Epstein and Trump. If all that is true we are in real, real bad trouble. I can't even understand how many men and banks all over the world are involved in the Epstein files. We are in big big trouble and a large part of the country still supports this idiot. What can we do to get rid of him????? There probably won't be any mid-term elections because he will do everything in his power to get rid of them. The Republicans in Congress will go right along with him. We are SOL (shit out of luck)
