Note: It was a short clip, but you were very much on the right track, Donnie. "Smart people don't like [you]." Now, take one more very short step, and characterize the people who do like you.

Two things:

1. Don't you wonder what people in tRump's audience thought when he said smart people don't like him? Audience thoughts: Is he saying we're not smart? If we are smart, why are we here? Should we not be liking him too? Should we leave now?

2. LOVE LOVE LOVE everyday Americans. Following the National Guard patrol playing the Imperial March from Star Wars --- brilliant! And the irony! The very guys who are there to stop crime in D.C. have to threaten to call the police. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Thank so much. I will be laughing all day long.

1. I did wonder about that. He said smart people don't like him, and his audience laughed. Yes, he was saying they're not smart. And that amused or pleased them. There's no need to end your imagined "if we are smart..." sentence. They're not, and presumably, they're so not smart that they don't know how not smart they are.

2. Yes, it was very funny that the people who are allegedly there because someone thinks the police aren't capable of doing their job need to call the police. I never know if the saying is "the blind leading the blind" or "the halt leading the blind."

I think the raiding of the Hyundai factory was an intentional raid on EVs. I love my Hyundai Electric Kona. The Trump administration wants to keep us in the gas guzzling datk ages while therest of the world transitions to the light of renewables. It's kind of metaphorically interesting as gas, coal and oil come from the dark, deep in the earth while most renewables (apart from hydro thermal) are created from the light and air

He has often said that he "likes the poorly-educated" - what does that tell you...

You see tRump's bare head with stands of long thin hair that looks like a nest with nothing but a bald head under the strands that can not hold the pretend coverage (Fake News) that he he has a full head of hair. It's an empty shell.

Oh my gaud! What a hero ! Playing the Imperial March to American soldiers! It IS hilarious! The sad thing is ....... it really is depicting what is going on in America. Anyone think these soldiers will regret what/who they have chosen to bend the knee too? Thanks Adam and Sam. I truly appreciate the daily Alt Media Substack

Can you add a reminder that it's about 6 weeks until THIS year's elections? It's not just about mid-terms/presidential years.

Note: It's President KKKankles.

.....

Note three: I have a spoon...

.....

Note six: Not are they only telling the world about how fucked up our government is, they've cancelled billions of dollars of investments in the US manufacturing sector, and I doubt that they will continue the work on the battery plant they were in the process of opening.

.....

Note eight: I really hope we get to see it on your substack, or youtube.

.....

Note sixteen: The only regret I have about this is that it's driving food costs higher. They stuck their heads up their asses and now are bitching because they only see shit.

.....

Note seventeen: Oh, you can count on AT LEAST one of them to royally fuck us over. Why would they stop now?

.....

Cook This: Turns out that PULTE'S PARENTS were GUILTY of doing what Pulte accused Cook of doing. One of the towns revoked their homestead exemption and is suing Pulte's parents for back taxes! OOPS Motherfucker! I call that a Karma Kickback!

.....

Go Zo! And Fuck Der Trumpenfuehrer.

.....

"Vice President JD Vance will host an edition of "The Charlie Kirk Show" on Monday" Betcha ten bucks he does it indoors and away from windows.

.....

“And the Emmy goes to… the Late Show with Stephen Colbert!” And about fucking time, too.

Bloody chum in the water brings sharks. They will bite anything and that is not violence. It is emotionally soothing food for the soul.
