I'm tired of asking the "what if" question.
And that is - what if any other president had done some of the things that Trump is doing? What would the reaction be coming from the right wing mouthpieces like Hannity and Alex Jones? What if another president told a wartime leader to fuck off because he wasn't wearing a suit? What if another president had an agency run by a psychotic billionaire that was dedicated to destroying government agencies and they fumbled that badly? What if another president accepted a $400 million jet from a Middle Eastern government that he gets to keep after leaving office? What if any other president was blindly signing executive orders the way that celebrities and athletes sign autographs, that were trotted out in front of him that were written by shady think tanks that we don't know what is in them or who's writing them? What if???
It's been 110 days and it feels like an eternity. Every single day it's a new disaster and a new fresh hell. If it's not Trump on Fox saying something stupid, it's someone from his cabinet - RFK Jr, Bondi, Noem, Patel, Lutnick and so on. We have a cabinet full of James Bond villains and each one is infinitely worse than the next. But they all have one thing in common - they were all promoted by Fox News, or the Fox Ministry Of Propaganda.
Yes we know - Fox News is in charge and they're stomping over everyone and everything to maintain their power because they didn't like their precious plaything being taken away from them in 2020. They stole the 2024 election, like they stole 2000, 2016, Congress, the Supreme Court, and various state and local offices with the shitty candidates they trot out night after night. They had a nightly batphone to the White House on Hannity and everything. It was bad in 2016, but this is on a whole new level. Now they're in charge of almost every branch and department and they're doing the worst job possible. All so they can get ratings and keep people voting for the incompetent shitheads they trot out on their talk shows night after night.
They've basically become a 24/7 Trump all the time infomercial. All their lackeys in his cabinet - all they do is go on that damn station and kiss his ass. They do nothing but vie for attention from Fox hosts. It's infuriating that Trump gets all the "get out of jail free" cards and we know damn well that Biden didn't even get one. It's time for the republican protection racket around him to end. This administration sucks and the whole world knows it.
Anyone else doing this much damage would have been given the heave ho by now. We all know the talking points. The Heritage Foundation, Federalist Society and Fox News are running a massive criminal racket, and a MAFIA style protection racket that's aimed at keeping authoritarian power, and it all needs to be taken down now, tomorrow may be too late.
