I'm reminded of a very prescient joke that Seth Meyers told on his show back in 2016 that we were about to elect our first woman president ever (Clinton), or our last president ever (Trump).
Very chilling what Trump is proposing here with being the sole authority. You know damn well he doesn't actually want to work or evaluate things on a case by case basis. This will be a stream of overlapping edicts, each one trying to undo the logical inconsistency of the last edict because he can't think through to the natural conclusion beyond his petty resentments.
And ~50% of American people who will actually vote will check that box and be fine with it. I wish I could say I had faith in my fellow Americans to not do that, but look how 2016 turned out.
The rate of inflation may be falling, but year on year it's still rising. I mean, I don’t know about you, but the cost of living certainly doesn't feel like it's getting any easier.
And there is basically nothing we can do about it, short of the 2nd Amendment. GOP will never remove one of their own for something as silly as ethics.
I know it's wrong to think of this as a self-solving problem, but I do.
The worst part is that there are innocents still in Florida. I hope they can escape before the authoritarian theocracy kills them, too.
