🤔 The Supreme Court had one job and one job only = PROTECT DEMOCRACY by preserving our Constitution through interpreting it justly, but they chose instead to protect only one political party and in doing so made one man a King and destroyed our entire country!

It's surreal how we're truly in a emperor has no clothes situation
Trump now says there are no talks at all with US and Iran. He adds that "the Hormuz Strait is open and operating."
According to our data 4 (four) ships traversed the strait yesterday, vs 137 on Feb 26.

At various point POTUS described the Iran war as a "little excursion," declared victory and gave several different timelines for when it would be over.
The war is now approaching the 6-month mark, Trump
says he won't renew the 60-day truce, oil is $90+ a barrel and he's threatening to bomb Oman.

Modern factories do not lucratively employ half the men in the town straight out of high school to work an assembly line on union contracts.
That was a weird blip in the 1950's when automation hadn't taken off yet and the US was the only country in the world whose factories weren't blown to shit.

Why would a book, especially one allegedly filled with stuff that's not true, merit a White House presidential briefing?
Because it's all true, of course. All of it. And they know it, hence the panic.
Every accusation is an admission.

If your focus is on changing the rules before an election, you’re only admitting that you know that you can’t win on your own merits.

“You have to respect the president. If you don’t respect the president, you’re going to have a problem.”
Funny, I don’t recall this clown calling for the same considerations for Obama and Biden.

Nobody is vandalizing the Reflecting Pool, and Trump knows it. This is a visible example of his corruption--a no-bid contract to some crony followed by sky-high cost overruns, and shoddy construction to boot. Classic Trump: I didn't fuck up, it was my enemies.
