Trump treating a press conference like a pen-pal moment with Putin says it all, he is more eager to please a dictator than to answer to the American people. Bragging about autographs and respect from Putin, it is fanboying for an adversary.

It used to be for outdoors and windy days almost exclusively. The hat started showing up noticeably more often (calm days, indoors, even at night) right about the same time as the canckles and the makeup on the back of his hand could no longer be hidden. And the new, far less impressive and less concealing hairdo, that showed up.

He’s famously done that hair himself for decades so what changed?

He can’t hold his arms up long enough to do it anymore.

He can’t hold his arms over his head to do his hair. I would happily wager half a year’s house payments on it.

Justice matters.

No stupid hat, no corruption, no intimidations, no bullying, no extortions, no crazyness, no collusion, no takeover of the DOJ, no chaos in cities and states, no cover ups, no pardons of insurrectionists and other criminals, no selling out to putler, no idiotic unconstitutional tariffs, no cruel cuts to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, USAID, Food Stamps, and meals for school kids, no war with Venezuela (coming up soon to distract away from Epstein...) and no wasteful bombing in Iran, a two-state solution in the Middle-East, no cuts to FEMA, no ICE raids and beatings, a bipartisan border bill, and a real justice for all.

Plus, a very cool Vice-President who cares about everybody equally (and a POTUS who cares too).
