From the Financial Times:

He promised on day one of his presidency to let January 6 convicts out of jail, close the US-Mexico border and “drill baby drill” for gas and oil. He feted Viktor Orbán in Mar-a-Lago as the best leader in the world and assured Hungary’s strongman that he would not “give a penny” to Ukraine. He took out a $91.6mn surety bond to pay defamation damages to his sexual assault victim, E Jean Carroll.

He purged the Republican National Committee with 60 staff firings — the opening move by his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, who he handpicked as RNC co-chair. He did a U-turn on TikTok, now saying its Chinese parent company should retain ownership. He mimicked Joe Biden’s stutter, insisted that America’s true inflation rate was 50 per cent and attacked Jimmy Kimmel as the worst ever Oscars host. It seems almost trivial to add that new detail emerged about Trump’s apparent soft spot for Adolf Hitler.


Just yesterday on Newsmax, Trump said Hillary Clinton used acid* on her email server that would destroy everything within 10 miles and that Bill Clinton took classified material out of the White House in his socks.

Trump claimed that before the pandemic, he was on his way to reducing the debt. Nope, he added $4.8T to the debt before the pandemic, and $3.6T during it.

Senator Katie Britt absorbed the media spotlight for two days when she lied to viewers in the State of the Union rebuttal with an anecdote about a Mexican sex trafficking victim.

"Every time Trump gives a speech, he dispenses a minimum of several full-blown lies. His untruths merit a shrug; everybody else’s qualify as a scandal."

There's the rub: the media simply shrug at whatever nonsense pours from his pie hole.

* The senile old fool Trump believes BleachBit, a free and open-source disk space cleaner, privacy manager, and computer system optimizer, is dangerous corrosive super acid that will destroy anything and everything within 10 miles of it.

What a doofus.
