My commencement speaker was George Steinbrenner. This was before he bought the Yankees and became a nationally known asshole. At the time he was a locally known asshole, at our school known for his two kids who were nicknamed the Steinboogies.

I suspect Trump really knows little about what his regime is doing, that he signs orders he knows nothing about and is, for once, telling the truth when he says "I know nothing about it" when questioned. Except for his destructive tariffs and vicious nature (which he shows off proudly in his speeches and public appearances wherein he openly bullies foreign leaders), the decision making is in the hands of his minions. Stephen Miller, Russell Vought, Elon Musk, and of course, JD Vance. all come to mind.

The parade is a sop to the old fart, keeping him happy and under the impression that he's the powerful guy in charge.

To the US Armed Forces sworn an oath to defend the US Constitution against all enemies, foreign or domestic. I'd posit that what the current administration has done has BEEN in direct violation of the US Constitution. On June 14, can you please uphold your oath and bring he and his associates into custody - the charges are violation of the Oath of Office, High Treason by he and his cabinet, and assorted misdemeanors. Remove him from his grandstand in chains.

The Führer is probably hoping for some kind of protest to occur in the are of the parade so he can order the troops present to terminate the protestors with extreme prejudice.. Normally they wouldn't have live ammo for this kind of event, but there is nothing normal about the clowns in charge. Secretary Shitfaced might order all weapons to be loaded and combat ready just in case of immigrants, feminists, gay couples, drag queens, or other woke threats.

So, we discuss juvenile nicknames instead of the disaster of Trump and MAGA and how we survive. Gotcha.

If losing in 2020 was "God's will," does that mean MAGA will shut the fuck up about how the election was stolen? Don't like the results? Take it up with God.

Uh, it's only "God's will" when you get what you want. When you don't, it's because God got thwarted by the woke liberal commie leftists!!! See how that works?
