Fourth Stage Fright

Yeah, I really shouldn't equate Trump with cancer. It's unfair to cancer. (Baddoom-sissss!)

----------------

When I heard that Chairman Mango was doing everything in his power to spread the joy and warmth of cancer I had many tangential, semi-humorous thoughts on the matter:

Is he afraid of cancer being cured because he himself is part skin sarcoma, part malignant intestinal polyp?

Is this one of those “It’s more profitable to control symptoms than cure disease” things? (Probably)

Instead of chemotherapy is Donald Dumbass going to start pitching ivermectin again as a all-cure in the same way he shills his tariffs as a solution for all economic problems?

And then I imagined an animal study where they forced sweet little guinea pigs to listen to hundreds of hours of Trump speeches. None of them developed cancer but over 90% of them hung themselves with bedsheets.

As a tedious encore, Trump is stomping his tiny, shoe-lifted feet today and demanding that PBS and NPR be cut off from federal funds for..... reasons. Unfortunately for him the funding side of the equation is Congress' job. Methinks even Republican Congressmen are too timid to axe Big Bird, especially as the mid-terms near.

Even so, Trump's actions in this regard will only result in increased donations from progressive voters. One only hopes, in this case, that PBS and NPR will at last have the means to finally stop normalizing Trump and honestly remind listeners/viewers that he's an incontinent ex-rapist when they report on the latest utterance to escape his lunatic gob.

He made his demands using an executive order, of course, which he seems to perceive as the ultimate genie's lamp wherein all wishes must be granted. He might as well sign an EO that says he's young, well-hung and can finally understand object permanence.

Elon Musk is reportedly packing up and leaving the White House, presumably to return to his previous job... rigging elections.

--------------

Two days ago a vote was taken on a Democratic amendment proposal to the upcoming budget bill that would prevent the Trumpstapo from using federal resources to detain or deport U.S. Citizens.

U.S. citizens. That's me. That's you. That's judges. That's 2-year-old children.

Every House Republican on the Judiciary Committee voted it down. By a 23-17 vote margin they said "Nice Constitution you have there.... for us to POOP on!"

Have a nice day.

It's not surprising that Donald "Grampa Simpson" Trump would look at an obviously Photoshop-ed image and swear it was real because Trump has all the mental horsepower of a Tamagotchi. What's surprising is that of all the grifters and toadies who infest the White House not one could create a faked photo deftly enough that it would deceive anyone capable of empirical analysis. By that I mean anyone older than six years old.

---------------

Trump wants to force the military to parade in his "honor" for his birthday.

I think Democrats ought to throw Joe Biden a big parade for doing such a great job while in office.

---------------

Was Mike Waltz kicked out as national security advisor because he's a moron or because he's steadfastly in favor of Russian sanctions and Trump is scared shitless of Putin?

Just askin'.
