6. Once again, Trump is...
Fri Mar 20, 2026, 08:13 AM
Friday

... trying to shift blame to underlings for this monumental clusterfuck, even though he'd been – in public – salivating like one Pavlov's dogs at the thought of killing people... from a safe distance, of course. He wanted a war, and it would serve a dual purpose: first, of course, as a desperate attempt to distract public attention from the burgeoning blowback of the Epstein coverup, and to lay the groundwork for justifying the takeover of elections and installing himself for a third – and open-ended – term. Remember "You won't have to vote ever again"? It was NOT an offhand remark; it's been his plan from the git-go. At least, insofar as he's even capable of making a plan. His mind is miasma of cloudy chaos, and you can bet that Nosferatu Miller has been guiding his scatter-brained decision-making through the minefield of fuck-ups Trump has laid for himself. Here's hoping a political Bouncing Betty finds his cankled foot.
