Same-Same (It Just Feels Different)

[Trump's] failed on almost every count. We used to call Joe Biden "Genocide Joe" when he was in the White House. We could easily call Donald Trump "Genocide Don."

"Trump's in-charge, but he lied, too / so we've traded one form of fascism for "Fascism Part II

Snake Eyes

"Has [Trump's tariff] policy worked as he intended? I think the answer is clearly 'no.' As you said, he expected to have 90 deals in 90 days.

Tom Cotton is a reminder that, as Prof. John Mearsheimer says, "white people" lied us all into this mess, and will keep doing so, until they're stopped.
