Everything trump does is done in the single dumbest way imaginable.

Not necessarily - he isn’t bright enough to be that consistent. Sometimes he does something okay like a blind man playing darts will occasionally hit the dartboard.

I actually take that back. Everything trump does is done in the single most evil way imaginable. It’s just that evil to these extremes is also really really dumb.

There’s a TV show on the ABC in Australia called Planet America that analyses presidential elections for Australians. Since Demented Don’s ascension it hasn’t stopped yet. Just too much to discuss.

Closing the strait of Hormuz has done a lot to accelerate the transition to electric vehicles.

I don’t think it having some upside makes it a good/okay thing… Still seems pretty stupid and net negative.
