Trump 47

Trump will not be able to fire Noem, Bondi, or Lutnick over incompetence or scandals (I suppose if bulletproof evidence could be found but that almost does not exist in the misinformation age). He chose them for loyalty not competence. If they remain loyal, he won't get rid of them. If he does, he has nothing left. He taught competent people (John Kelly, Mattis, Tillerson etc) to avoid him like the plague. All he has left are the loyalists.

I’m worried about Homan. He’s been acting like something of an adult in Minnesota. He doesn’t have much time left.

Ehh, he has still been doing the same heinous sh!t bovino was doing. He just hasnt been as inflamatory in press conferences and despite ICE and CBP pulling guns on observers multiple times, no one has been shot on his watch, yet.

Trump can say what he wants I guess. Now let's see him try and enforce it.

 
I think he is saying this for one of two reasons:

1. He is getting us ready for the dictatorship he think he will have.
3. He is clueless and thinks he is a dictator.

He lacks a fundamental understanding of how government works. I don't think he knows he can't just anti veto something if congress doesn't approve of it. And besides if he finds the votes in congress he probably doesn't realize that then it's lawsuit city and his lawyers aren't good enough to convince the court system that the government isn't really trying to require a federal poll tax.

That may be true.

It wasn't true 10 years ago.

I don't know. He didn't understand how primaries worked in 2016.

And he never seemed to be willing to learn. Eight years ago he had a collection of idiots and adults in the room around him. Instead of learning from the people who had an idea of how he was supposed to behave and uphold the office he ran those people off. Now none of those people are around and he lacks the ability to remember any of the lessons he should have learned in his first term.

That just isn't true at all. He worked the primaries like a boss. Trump won the open primaries where anyone could vote. He avoided the caucus states where Republicans only could vote. He also lost the closed primaries. Cruz won the caucuses and closed primaries. If not for the open primaries Cruz would have been the Republican candidate and likely would have lost to Clinton. Trump was the only Republican candidate that could have beaten her. I used to think that maybe it was Democrats voting in the open primaries for Trump trying to get the candidate that they wanted to run against and it backfired on them. But I don't think that anymore. 2024 is the evidence that wasn't the truth.

I was thinking more towards the end when Cruz and Kasich were trying to avoid each other in an attempt to deny him enough delegates and take the fight to the convention. He was saying they were cheating and trying to screw him when it was apparent what they were doing. Of course this was before I understood that he was someone who sees enemies everywhere and believes he only loses to them when they cheat. So yeah perception has changed somewhat over the last decade.

Its really crazy that everyone alive right now has to spend at least 12-15% of their lives dealing with this moron. I sometimes think about how someone born in the middle ages spent their entire life on a dirt farm so I could say and do things that they couldn't even comprehend. Then I remember for most all of us, the power structure doesn't change, just the names and titles of those in power but the distractions just get better the further along we advance.
 
"Whether approved by Congress or not" is certainly not "what our Founders desired."

Nor was a king disguised as a rambling fool

This is satire but if we are being honest about stuff, what type of voter is more likely to have a passport? What type of voter is more likely to have been freaked out in the last 6 months and gotten one?
