Wait - because Ukraine is blowing up Russian diesel, the shortage and price rise is their fault.
Trump should at least quit using the talking point papers with the Kremlin logo on them.

I can’t wait to get my Republican win check to go along with my DOGE check and tariff check.
Just how stupid does he think his base is?

Apple a Google Maps both folded like a cheap suit.
Renaming lakes may seem trivial or childish BUT it undermines the basic trust of those institutions. What else changed, don’t know.
But the trust is gone.

So many vanity project “shiny object” distractions, what about the Epstein files? Plenty of time elapsed to vet them and have the public see them.

Darlene Graham won the GOP primary in South Carolina.
The primary was an open one, no party restrictions.
You have to wonder if she was “Cantor’ed”.

Regarding election integrity, remember that Trump, as a convicted felon in the state of New York, is allowed to vote in Florida because of a loophole. A loophole that he uses via mail-in-balloting.

Trump is going to reduce the price of ground beef by 25% for 90 days.
The tariff he imposed on ground beef was a hair over 26%.
Like an arsonist calling in the fire he started to claim to be a hero.
BTW - Trump is a pedophile protecter.

Reporting has indicated MAGA enthusiasts in the Navy want to rename a carrier under construction from a Black WWII hero to Trump.
OK I guess but not sure if anyone would really want to serve aboard the USS Sex Offender.

The good people of South Carolina deserve someone better than Daline Graham to represent them in the US Senate. Literally as a sitting US Senator, she is an embarrassment.

The ChickenShit in Chief wants battleships and steam catapults now. Maybe go back to shoveling coal? He is stuck in the 50s, could be 1850s or 1950s, doesn’t matter.

If the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over again expecting a different outcome, then Trump's hand picked Kennedy Board is indeed - insane. It doesn't matter if you voted to plaster his name on the building, that is up to an Act of Congress.
Or you can prove to be stupid again.

Commander in Chief #ChickenShit is blaming his staff for making him fly the other plane. The cherry on top is that he said “I think actually the plane that I flew on was at greater risk,”
I wonder if the 747 flew with the call sign Air Force One.

Trump Used Own Staff as Decoy During Iranian Assassination Threat
Donald Trump let the press pool and some of his staff think he was on Air Force One, while really he had been smuggled in a catering cart onto a different plane.
