Everybody’s got their take on the “Gulf of America” and other babblings from the Trump “news conference” yesterday.
As per usual, some espouse the view that Trump is playing some kind of three-dimensional chess.
May I humbly suggest that Trump has, for a long time, suffered from malignant narcissistic personality disorder and related mental diseases; that, to his portfolio of afflictions, he has recently added early stage dementia; that his mental and physical health are worsening by the day; and that handing him power was a breathtakingly irresponsible act.
The Richie Richs did it because they loved them some tax cuts back in 2017—and here in 2025, they would love them some more tax cuts.
What with the confusion in their Republican legislative ranks, I don’t think they’re actually going to get their tax cuts.
What with the tariffs, the deportations, and other reckless nonsense, I think the Richie Riches are going to wind up screwed, blued, and tattooed.
It couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of guys.
