    Trump Escalates His Bizarre Canada Joke in Weirdest Way Possible | The New Republic

    excerpt:

    "The joke has proven an understandably controversial one, but Trump on Tuesday afternoon followed up on it by posting an apparently AI-generated image to Truth Social captioned “Oh Canada!” The image depicts the president-elect atop a mountain, beside a Canadian flag, gazing upon a pinnacle that users have noted closely resembles that of the Matterhorn in Switzerland.

    The post recalls some of the more delirious moments of Trump’s first term, namely his half-joking posts about the administration purchasing Greenland. It also offers a foretaste of the presidential communications that await us in his second term, thanks to the wonders of AI image generation.

    But in this instance, behind the post and original joke, there lies a serious threat against our top trading partners, which analysts say would have dire consequences if fulfilled—even barring retaliatory actions.

    NPR reports that Trump’s proposed tariffs would likely raise the cost of groceries and gasoline for American consumers. The Brookings Institute notes that the tariffs could be even more ruinous considering “approximately 50% of U.S. trade with Canada and Mexico is driven by supply chains” in which products cross borders repeatedly during their production."

    It may be part of why Chronister withdrew from Trump's nomination. Chronister enforcing the Covid restrictions doesn't sit well with Trump and many in the GOP.

    It was appropriate for Chronister to withdraw. He's not qualified to run the DEA just because he was a sheriff.

    Similarly, Hegseth is not qualified to run the entire military just because he was in charge of an army platoon and hit a military drummer with an axe during a stunt on Fox News.

    Arizona wasn't MAGA's last stand.

    Trump won AZ by about 5.5% in the 2024 election. Biden won it in 2020 by 0.3%.

    It turned out Trump didn't need AZ critically. He won all seven battleground states, although by small margins.

    The AZ ban on abortion didn't stop Trump.

    Hegseth's remarks about Trump in 2016.


    Now There's Resurfaced Video Of Pete Hegseth Completely Trashing Trump

    excerpt:

    “It’s typical Trump, all bluster, very little substance,” Hegseth said on Fox News in March 2016. “He talks a tough game. But then when pressed on it, he’s an armchair tough guy. I hate to say it, but this is a guy who said that John McCain is not a war hero. Yet he sought his own five military deferments.”

    Seeing Amazon Honcho: Mr. Jeff Besos is joining the pilgrimage to Mar-A- Lotta-dough. His Washington Post did not make an endorsement in the recent election. Does Mr. Besos need to match-up w. Viveck & Elon in DC?
    Mr Besos runs a Progressive warehouse.

    So Billionaires lining up behind Trump or begging him not to make good on his promises to lock up his enemies?

    So far Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and now Jeff Bezos are flocking to Mar-al-lago. They must be worried.

    I doubt Trump will be in office that long.

    Trump's oligarchy.


    Elon Musk spent a quarter-billion dollars electing Trump, including financing mysterious 'RBG PAC'

    excerpt:

    "Billionaire Elon Musk poured more than $20 million into a mysterious super PAC at the end of the 2024 campaign, part of more than $250 million he spent overall to boost President-elect Donald Trump, new campaign finance reports show.

    Musk financed RBG PAC, according to the report the group filed Thursday night with the Federal Election Commission. The super PAC, which did not disclose its donors before the election, launched ads contending that Trump did not support a federal abortion ban."

    Fox missed out on giving the QAnon Shaman an award.

    Trump has plenty of opportunity to do it during his second term. He could even do it at the State Of The Union Address like he did when he gave the Presidential Medal Of Freedom award to Rush Limbaugh.
