TRUMP: *spouts the most insane shit possible in a constant stream of consciousness*

NYT: It's a bit of a mixed bag

News Analysis: Nine months into his term, President Trump’s approach to allies, adversaries and competitors around the world has proved a strange mix of successes and increasingly frequent and erratic eruptions.

Trump, Long Erratic on the World Stage, Reaches a New Level

Whether because of his increasingly mercurial approach or despite it, President Trump has won some foreign policy victories in his second term. The question now is whether he can build on his record.

A robot would think about this situation and declare that the driver is also probably a dog, based on available data.

Zohran Mamdani's promises of free busses might sound great, but I live in Albuquerque NM where city busses have been free for five years and I'm here to tell you the truth. This is what every bus in my city looks like now. Think carefully about your choice this November.

a terrifying sight, a bus where dogs have taken over, all dogs riding the bus, no humans in sight, just good boys sitting on the bus waiting for a head pat, horrifying

A president who can tear down 1/3 of the White House can tear down the entire White House. A president who can steal $230M from the treasury can steal $1T from the Treasury. We have both legalized and tolerated Trump’s crimes, so they will only get bigger.

You would think the POTUS knocking down part of the White House and demanding $230 of taxpayer money would trigger such rage that a general strike would finally be on the table, and yet.

The optics of Trump building a ballroom that 99.9% of Americans will never set foot in while millions line up for food banks are worth more than any policy paper or economic proposal. This image is a visceral punch in the mouth that needs no words. It should haunt the GOP for a generation.
