Trump just finished “addressing” the nation. In the nineteen minutes he spoke, oil prices jumped another four dollars a barrel. He openly declared his intent to commit a war crime — to bomb Iranian electrical facilities — and announced that Medicare and Medicaid could no longer be funded “while we are at war.”
Those nineteen minutes were essentially free campaign ads for every Democrat running in the upcoming midterms. The performance was stunningly disconnected from reality. Trump’s cabinet had better learn to count to twenty‑five soon, before he collapses the entire Republican Party.
I’m only surprised we didn’t get an update on his precious ballroom.
