To the point made at left:

1) There are plenty of Trump voters who regret their votes.  If that weren’t the case, it would be impossible to explain Trump’s cratering approval ratings.  Now, how many of these folks base their regret on the price of groceries, or the fact that trump continues to reveal himself as a criminal sociopath is impossible to know.

2) More important is the truth revealed in this quote from the immortal Carl Sagan:

“One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.”

I don’t see why not.  Let’s look at a few of his accomplishments over the last year:

• Illegally invaded Venezuela for its oil.

• Appears ready to invade and annex Greenland.

• Detains and deports people without due process.

• Pardons felons who support him financially and/or politically.  Several violent Jan 6. convicts have already committed new crimes.

• Condones excessive use of force common among ICE officers, who are coming after immigrants, U.S. citizens, and protestors.

• Tells Cuba to “make a deal before it’s too late.”

Earlier, Trump orchestrated the violent attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Is this all to distract our attention from the Epstein files?  Probably.

in any case, all in all, this “president of peace” things seems a bit iffy.

Trump–a President of Peace?

An old school chum writes:

“We live in a world … that is governed by strength … by force … and by power.” – Stephen Miller (see @ 5:55). For the record, that’s what Hitler said in 1939.

The United States has lost its place in this world. We’ve been taken over by a lunatic president and his “nazi” henchmen.
