your thoughts and a couple other reactions tell me that the only rational response is to ignore Joe, Donald, and the press for awhile. will vote for the Dem, whoever that may be, but don't need to track the wagon train's progress through hostile territory

I have read about "undecided voters." If they are real, and not mythical, I wonder whether, in places where the vote is close. they might be influenced to decide for the Democrat.

hey, kids. Joe is the president. He can stand up and say what needs to be said. If he doesn't say it, mumbles it, slurs it, misstates it, well, that's on him but Joe is the president and people are listening

Trump says he knows nothing about project 2025 but he disagrees with some of it. Seems reasonable. Old guys have always had strong opinions about stuff they're ignorant of Good for Donald for maintaining that manly tradition

are the documents his now? he's not "allowed" to take them, is he? but the illegal act can't be charged if he can't be charged originally, there's nothing to obstruct. except, wait! what about his accomplices?

I'd like him to be fit, but the evidence is weak. the situation presents a fascinating paradox: 1-Joe has been a good-excellent president and 2-Joe is sometimes muddled seems like 2 trumps 1

diagnosis: Joe doesn't know when to shut up. He's unable to shut up when shut-up time arrives. All he needs is an aide with an air horn. Blow it when it's time for Joe to shut the fuck up

if what we have today is democracy at its best, why would we want to save it? we certainly don't want to put our fate in the hands of a man who stole from a charity, but what is the best way to run things? if we put economists in charge, would that lead to a rational world order?

"I had forgotten that convicted felon Donald J Trump stole from a charity" zackly. I think this is such chickenshit, low-life behavior. And the truth is not disputed. Maybe he raped a lady, took documents, plotted a coup. But for sure he stole from a charity. What a bum! We can all agree.

my idea is that it would be powerful to remind people that Trump stole from a charity. stole from a charity! your interview-people-in-a-diner reporters could go on the road and remind fried-egg eaters what Trump did. Do they think it's okay to pilfer money from veterans, churches, and whatnot?

how crazy is it that reputable constitutional scholars are debating the legality of a president assassinating people . . . as though it could be a real thing? we all know by now the tale of the scalded frog. folks, the water is boiling and that tension you're feeling . . . it's your brain melting

seems to me post-WWI artists and writers were casting about for meaning in the wreckage of a world gone mad. Today's chaos has echoes ot Vietnam and post-war eras. Basically, fucking crazy. One might say, big fires everywhere.

perhaps there's an opportunity in looking at the Epstein Grand Jury stuff. Pretty sure people would be interested to hear about Trump's connections to the predator, as recently revealed? Insurrection=pffft. Kinky sex=talk to me.
