This looked to be just one more Trumpian tantrum, which pops up when he sees something distressing on television or is spoken to by a woman without the self-abasement he demands. But this was something even worse: An episode that sums up Trumpian economics in all its stupidity and atavistic sleaze.

None of the fake grievance that birthed Kid Rock's All-American Halftime Show made it onto the stage. Bad Bunny wasn’t mentioned. There was no attempt to say why a Puerto Rican performing at halftime was so offensive that this alternate universe needed to exist. www.jezebel.com/turning-poin...
I Wasted 30 Minutes of My Life Watching the Turning Point USA Halftime Show So You Don’t Have To
It’s hard to mount a culture war when your big counteroffensive looks like a youth-group lock-in made up of kids who found God in a megachurch but lost their personality somewhere in suburban Atlanta....

The people want affordability. After initially calling the concept a “hoax,” Trump has begun unveiling his own agenda to bring down prices and increase Americans’ purchasing power. But each of his proposals would make the affordability problem worse, not better. www.theatlantic.com/economy/2026...

I'm absolutely certain he will do everything to "ensure the midterms can't be rigged" (which will of course only be a possibility in blue states). He has already broken so many laws a few more won't matter anymore.

We’re 10 months away from the midterms. Let’s take stock: We have a corrupt and incompetent president whom we are powerless to rein in. When the time comes to rein him in, he will do everything he can to nullify the electoral process and reverse the voters’ will. newrepublic.com/article/2063...

It is testimony to the marketing genius of Donald Trump that he never sold himself to Christians as one of them — pious, devoted, merciful, forgiving, irenic, biblically literate, a faithful husband and father. Instead, he sold himself as their protector. He didn’t hide his cruelty. It worked. 😳
