The first 60 days of the presidency

 It is often said that an American President has 100 days after the election as a kind of "Honey Moon".    The score for the current holder of the job is not too good, nevermind the court reverting about 90% of what DOGE did as illegal.  But the fumbling of the ball has been rather spectacular.

Trump this morning will receive his first real piece of legislation from Congress, something to do with cryptocurrencies...

Then of course there is the daily commentaries, completed and utter bullshit,.   Unsurprisingly, the Department of health has become an anti-vaxer hotbed with a rather serious outbreak of measles in Texas.   A few children have already died, apparently, and I find this incredible to hear. The mother of one of the two children who died said that his sacrifice was worth it against the crusade against vaccines.   As they say you cannot cure stupid.

The latest trouble is the invitation on Signal (A Russian-owned and controlled competitor to WhatsApp) of a journalist. Not only did the administration fumble the ball on that little gem, but in addition, it also reveals that the real names of CIA agents were revealed.

The outcome is not at all surprising; the truth is that if you hire people to be meat puppets, you get idiots. In addition, Trump has the attention span of a gnat.

The next 1,029 days are going to be long....but who is counting

The end of Tesla?

 it takes a special kind of idiot, to think that he can antagonize his entire customer base, and think that it will not impact his business. When Elon Musk went to work for Donald Trump, and created the doge department, he antagonized every liberal, and these people represent 90% of his client base.That’s not a brilliant move. Now Elon Musk is worth hundreds of billions of dollar, so he shouldn’t care a great deal, however, he needs to care because of several other issues. The cyber truck has been a disaster, most have had to be recalled because of defective glue, it’s not a truck, it’s not a car, it’s noisy, relatively uncomfortable, but great as a development platform. What Tesla has learned in making car manufacturing more seamless is truly amazing. The problem was that Elon Musk was so pissed with the Democrats, and with Joe Biden, in particular because of some slight, which were just plain stupid too. By the way, that he decided to support with hundreds of millions of dollar, ...

Donald Trump‘s bad bargain

 The entire of 2023 and 2024 when Donald Trump was running for the White House, his mantra was no war, that the Ukraine conflict would be resolved in a day, and that he would do everything not to involve America and war. How the world has changed! He finds himself facing three conflicts; Ukraine, still going on almost 5 months after he became president. Gaza, an unspeakable crime against humanity, is obviously going to go all the way to its bitter end. And finally, Israel’s attack against Iran. It’s important to note, that Benjamin Netanyahu first indicated at the United nation that the Iranian were 3 to 5 years away from having the nuclear bomb. He made that statement in 1995. Therefore, no one is surprised that he uses the same two lines every so often. It’s entirely possible, that 30 years after he first announced it, that Iran has finally developed the bomb. It’s also remarkable that Iran, local power has been destroyed, from Yemen, to Syria, via Lebanon and Gaza to small exten...

TACO again, but worst!

 Donald Trump got the rare earth metals that he had thrown away on April 2, liberation day as he called it. What did the Chinese get in exchange? The whole deal, is on the wrap right now. But let’s be clear. It’s the Chinese that have the upper hand.Some of the materials made by the Chinese, are simply unavailable anywhere else. suspicions are that the Chinese got the high-end chips that they lost under Biden. Tariffs will probably return to the level of April 1, and in the end Donald and his friends got nothing for it. It gets worse, Chinese exports to United States are down 40%. The Chinese have found new markets, I probably never gonna buy American grain again. Once again, Donald Trump proved he’s a great negotiator. He got absolutely nothing for his Showmanship. He told the world, that everyone would come and kiss his ass, instead they’re laughing At him. There’s no joke about Donald Trump, a 25 and inherited a huge fortune and proceeded to make it a small one. Bottom line, the...
