Trump's Second Term

Spiffy Shoes

KILMEADE: Is it true you're telling your whole cabinet to wear the same shoes, these Florsheim shoes?

TRUMP: I have fun with it. When they tell me they have a problem, I say, 'let me get you a pair of shoes.' It seems to work out pretty well. Now they look all spiffy and nice. I never liked cabinet members walking in sneakers, you know? So I'll get them a pair of shoes. It's a gift from Donald Trump.

Q: You have said the US military has aerial and naval superiority over Iran, yet we're not escorting ships through the Strait of Hormuz. How did you not plan for this?

HEGSETH: We planned for it. We recognize it. Um, because ultimately, we want to do it sequentially in a way that makes the most sense for what we want to achieve.

So now it's clear that the US warfighting Navy has only one vessel capable of escorting a tanker "across the road" of Hormuz like helping an old lady over a crossing. Or that is all they are prepared to put in the line of actual fire.
 
Osama bin Laden

Trump: "You know what else I thought about a long time before it happened, one year before it happened almost exactly? Osama bin Laden. I said, 'You have to go out and kill Osama bin Laden. He's big trouble. Kill him.' Nobody did anything. A year later he knocked down the World Trade Center. Did you know that? It was in a book. One of my many best sellers."

Jeanine Pirro: "The judge has neutered the grand jury's ability to investigate crime. As a result, Jerome Powell today is now bathed in immunity preventing my office from investigating the Federal Reserve. This is wrong and it is without legal authority."

Aww, real lawyering is such hard work! You look like you really need a relaxing drink, Jeanine.

Trumpy can't see the joke.

"The grand jury's ability to investigate crime." Yup, that shows how well she actually understands the Justice system just fine. No wonder she did so well on Fox.

It comes as no surprise to anyone, except perhaps MAGA idiots, that Donnie is lying. He's been repeating this lie for years but this is the entirety of his comment regarding OBL in his book:

Here’s the book’s single mention of bin Laden, in a section criticizing US foreign policy: “Instead of one looming crisis hanging over us, we face a bewildering series of smaller crises, flash points, standoffs, and hot spots. We’re not playing the chess game to end all chess games anymore. We’re playing tournament chess – one master against many rivals. One day we’re all assured that Iraq is under control, the UN inspectors have done their work, everything’s fine, not to worry. The next day the bombing begins. One day we’re told that a shadowy figure with no fixed address named Osama bin-Laden is public enemy number one, and U.S. jetfighters lay waste to his camp in Afghanistan. He escapes back under some rock, and a few news cycles later it’s on to a new enemy and new crisis.”

So with everything not going great with Trump's Iran adventure, what would the Arcons be discussing? Exit strategy? Better ideas for defending the Strait*? Defending Trump as a warrior truly ending what Carter started? Disdain for going against his campaign promise of no new wars?

Nope. Most of their posts have been about NYC Mayor Mamdani.



* In fairness there was one thread or comment run about this and the main suggestion was to run things like it was a WW2 Convoy in the Mediterranean as if that was easy-peasy to arrange.

THE TRUMP KENNEDY CENTER will be, at its completion, the finest facility of its kind anywhere in the World! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Well okay, maybe Trump didn't actually say Bin Ladin was dangerous but in hindsight he reckons he thought it. I mean Trump is a pretty shrewd judge of character. To everyone else Bin Ladin was just a run of the mill public enemy number one. But Trump now says he thinks he thought there was something not quite right about the guy.

Guy's got ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ spidey senses, man.
