12. Not Much Surprise Here
Sat Sep 6, 2025, 04:24 PM
Sep 2025

The only thing that surprised me was that Oregon wasn't first on the fool's list of states to attack: Solidly Blue state with a lesbian governor who lives with her wife, both work to fix social problems, and both are Dems. Checks all of his trigger points. Not sure why he chose Portland to threaten, rather than Salem (the capital), other than the fool was watching a five-year-old news story that lead him to this stupid threat. Or, maybe Oregon's lower population saved them from his immediate wrath. Whatever caused this, it needs to stop NOW!
