    Why is no one questioning this man's sanity? Or wondering, at least, why he's wasting time and money on crap like this?

    A series of plaques recently installed in the White House’s “Presidential Walk of Fame” includes scathing attacks on former Democratic presidents and lofty praise for President Donald Trump.

    Susie Wiles, care to explain this to the rest of the country?

    Clearly because they are so unpatriotic and so selfish that all they care about is protecting their own interests.

    Or wondering, at least, why he's wasting time and money on crap like this?

    Indeed. I would love to see a detailed report of all the unnecessary expenditures like this that are happening, each with a column that gives a numerical ranking on a scale of 1 to 10 of the level of petty…. Or in a sanity. This one would be a 10.

    A series of plaques

    It’s the plaque version of his social media posts. 🙄

      Well now we know whose fault the speech was.

      President Donald Trump claimed Susie Wiles, his chief of staff, made him deliver Wednesday’s primetime address.

      The president gave an 18-minute address to the nation, in which he blamed former President Joe Biden for the current economic woes, rising housing costs, and what he called a “colossal border invasion.” Now, after 11 months of the second Trump White House, he claimed, the U.S. has become the “hottest country anywhere in the world.” Trump was mocked online for the address for its seeming lack of substance and for how he shouted through most of it.

      Following the brief address, Trump told reporters that his chief of staff informed him he “had” to give the address. Pressed as to whether she would stay in the role, the president said: “Yes. She’s doing a great job.”

      Wonder how long she'll last.

        Ain't gonna happen until Trump's people say so or he dies.

        Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.

          Guess he needed a pick-me-up after last night's debacle.

          President Donald Trump’s handpicked board voted on Thursday to rename Washington’s leading performing arts center as the Trump-Kennedy Center, the White House said.

          Press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced the vote on social media, saying it was because of the “unbelievable work President Trump has done over the last year in saving the building. Not only from the standpoint of its reconstruction, but also financially, and its reputation.”

          Trump, a Republican who’s chairman of the board, often refers to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, which is named for a Democratic predecessor, as the “Trump Kennedy Center.”

          Asked on Dec. 7 as he walked the red carpet for the Kennedy Center Honors program whether he would rename the venue after himself, Trump said such a decision would be up to the board.

          Saving its reputation? Leavitt says these things with a straight face. Remarkable.

                They always use words like-- "unbelievable." I guess this has the advantage of both being cult-like and literally true.

                    He isn't a businessman, unless Don Corleone is just "a businessman." His record in business is abject failure. His record in extortion and in profiting from influence ... golden.

                        Nothing like tending to the important stuff. Website got changed yesterday. His name went on the building today.

                        alt text

                        The name change wasn't on the agenda for the board, and people who objected to the change were muted out on the video call. A unanimous vote! This is like Putin winning an election with 99% of the vote...

                        And let's not forget the congratulations sent by Press Secretary Leavitt:

                        Congratulations to President Donald J. Trump, and likewise, congratulations to President Kennedy, because this will be a truly great team long into the future! The building will no doubt attain new levels of success and grandeur.

                        This is all a joke, right? We're going to wake up and realize it was just some really strange dream, right?
