Most Americans are unable to point to something that Trump has done since he retook the White House in January of 2025 that has had any effect other than to ruin a national institution.

The Kennedy Center is a great example.  Once a venue comparable to Carnegie Hall, Trump’s usurpation of this treasure has brought it to its knees.

As if we couldn’t have seen this happening.  Do you think the most sophisticated people on the planet want to have anything to do with one of the vilest human beings who’s ever walked the Earth?

As they authored the U.S. Constitution, the Founding Fathers may have had thoughts about being more specific in defining the limits of presidential power. As we sit here today, we wonder if what Trump’s done to the Kennedy Center is legal, but also:

• Aren’t there laws that prevent the president from bulldozing a wing of the White House?

• Can the president launch an unprovoked war against another country, on the basis that it sits on a huge amount of oil?

• Does the president have the right to order his justice department to criminally prosecute his enemies?

• Why aren’t there prohibitions against a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist running for president?

• Can the president pardon thousands of his supporters, including those who were convicted of aggravated battery against law enforcement personnel?

Some say that it’s not the fault of the Founding Fathers that they didn’t think this through; they simply never had the thought that the American people could possibly sink to this level of stupidity.  I whole-heartedly accept that.

We can only hope that all this will soon be behind us.

What Karl Marx said here has been repeated by many dozens of people over the years, notably George Carlin (see below).

To the author of the meme here: It’s true that Trump has no concerns for the wellbeing of the common American, and the only reason he cares about the billionaires is that they make huge donations that help him to stay in power.  If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t care about the billionaires either.

This is indicative of the final days of capitalism–eventually you wind up with a mentally ill criminal running the country, who’s very difficult to remove because of his corrupt relationship with the wealthiest members of society.

Trump is destroying America’s opportunity to lead the world in clean energy and transportation, and is handing it to China, who is eagerly accepting it.

Countries around the globe are phasing out fossil fuels, and getting rich in the process, but the U.S. will have no part in it.

Even the most hate-filled and stupid Americans are starting to realize that the United States is being led by a psychopath.  If anything can serve as compelling evidence of this, the social media post below just may help to get the job done.

Venezuela? The country colonized by the Spanish and French? The one that’s been independent for almost 200 years?   There are elementary school kids all over the country asking, “WTF?”

Yes, we’re aware that Trump needs to distract us from the many criminal accusations against him, but does he really think this will fly?

During my years as a marketing consultant to large IT and communications tech companies, I helped my clients name or rename many dozens of products.  No need to be too clever or catchy; just pick something that makes an introduction in a way that’s clear and implies its power to create value.

Here, I’m not sure what the marketing people were thinking.  One thing’s for sure: you don’t want your kids being driven around by incoherent people.

At left is a post from “Real Texas Conservatives.”

When I first came across it, I wasn’t going to dignify it with a response.

But then it occurred to me to remind readers that, over the last 30 years, 78% of the planet’s mass shootings took place in the United States, and the remaining 22% were divided among the other 200+ countries around the world.

I understand that “real Texas conservatives” don’t give a shit about our children’s capacity to come home from school alive.  Fortunately, these people, tragically born without a conscience, are in the minority.

Two corrections here:

1) Until he entered politics, Trump was essentially unknown outside of New York City, where he was reviled as a business cheat and a fraud.  Finding a few photos of people smiling around him doesn’t prove otherwise.

2) No one was “told to hate him.”  If there is anything remarkable about the mainstream media, it’s its lack of willingness to call for his ouster.

He earned the country’s (and the world’s) contempt, starting with his attempt to overthrow the U.S. federal government following his loss in the 2020 election.

This enmity grew like a weed since Trump retook the White House in January of 2025, based on:

∙ His aggression in dismantling all elements of the federal government that had any potential to help the common person, including human health, disaster relief, public education, environmental protection, nutritional support for the poor, human rights, and economic stability.

∙ Transferring the resulting money to his billionaire supporters.

∙ Misusing his presidential powers to pardon or commute the sentences of more than a thousand convicted felons who happen to support him politically and financially.

He’s a man completely devoid of a single shred of honor and integrity.  That doesn’t sit well with decent people, and America hasn’t run out of them.  Yet.

From the reports we see all around us, it appears that even the most hateful and ignorant people in the United States are finally losing their appetite for Donald Trump.

Some of these folks base their growing distaste for the president on the unaffordable price of groceries.  That’s fine.  Whatever gets the job done.

Of course, it would be far better for our country and the world if we would get him removed from office on the basis that he’s among the most vile and disgusting human beings ever to walk the Earth.

We need “experts” to tell us that we have no right to steal oil from another country?
