It goes back to the fundamentals If your fighter jet is shot down, and you're taken prisoner, if you die from COVID, if your child contracts measles by interacting with sickly lower class toddlers YOU LOSE Trump likes winners. Mmmk?

Does he have time for a treat? Lately, seems too busy, cheerleading Trump giving his hero, Putin, some man-love.

What possible reason is there for the US to piss all over our relationship with Canada and Mexico? Who could possibly support this new strategy?

King Baby bitched how Zelensky didn't wear a suit today, yet has never whined about what a slob Elon Musk is when Nazi guy visits the Oval Office.

Has war taken too big a bite out of Putin's growing, gigantic pile of wealth? Is Trump attempting to follow Putin's playbook? (this is what I've thought since the news years ago that Russians officed at Trump tower) Is Trump anxious to redirect spending and revise our U.S.-Ukraine strategy in ways to fill his pockets more quickly?

Found this Asian Website, Bangkok edition, with articles on The White Lotus, such as the fashion, the creator Mike White, the actors, and episode reviews. https://www.lifestyleasia.com/bk/

MAGA is trying to tone down all the gay shit so America doesn't forget about masculinity.

I watched the 1st episode of S3 of The White Lotus on HBO and looking forward to episode #2 tomorrow. Many of you actually live in Thailand, right? Is this show airing there? Is there any reaction in Thailand? Are you watching it? I love it. The music. The vibe. The scenery and culture.

Are we supposed to care about polls again? Or is this just a cable news feature to drive up TV viewership and internet clicks? I don't trust their value, e.g how those polls will translate into change with this White House American's don't understand much these days. As Jimmie Chieng says, they don't read enough or have the vocabulary to foster ideas why they might want to resist MAGA.

Trump just told defense contractors the Pentagon must reduce spending by 8%, in each of the next 5 years. So yeah, I really wonder if defense and aerospace sector has buyers remorse. Trump is a lame duck president, so he might not worry too much. As long as he succeeds as a good power bottom for Putin, it seems he is on track for that piece of his agenda.

I can't understand how the US Aerospace and Defense industry is pro Trump. Maybe it's old thinking that Repubs increase defense spending. Yet will NATO buy American weapons after Trump shits all over them and Ukraine? Frankly, it seems Trump is fucking up a lot of trading partnerships, and potentially fucking up domestic businesses that rely on immigrant labor. When will the private sector revolt?

May I just say thank you New York Times and Washington Post for helping me understand the health care agenda and where to look for the truth. And may I assume how we all need to vote in the midterms? Happy President's Day sistahs.

I wish politicians like Cuomo and Clinton could have kept their hands off da chicks.

Thank you for sharing the biographer interview. "Demon mode" must come with risk. Thinking how demon leaders of the past have wrought so much terrible suffering, e.g. Stalin, Hitler, Mao, and so on, one might worry how Musk could magnify the damage wrought by Trump. Would Musk have any sway over defense policy? As the biographer explained, with Starlink and Ukraine, that can happen. We should worry. His design-for-manufacture algorithm to reduce costs by eliminating requirements might raise a bunch of red flags. Sure it might be OK as he said if a few rockets blow up. But when will it not ok, e.g. the Challenger disaster, our functioning democracy, our global alliances?
