Thanks, Daddy Trump...For Nothing

Y'all. Wednesday was not a weird day for this administration. It was a normal day, and that is the whole problem.

Donald Trump canceled a bipartisan housing bill that would have lowered rent for millions of people. He killed the signing ceremony hours before it happened because he wants Congress to pass the SAVE Act first. That is voter suppression dressed up as a national emergency. He is holding your housing relief hostage. And his own supporters are in the replies typing thank you, daddy like that is a normal response to a man torching your rent relief.

Same day he got into a screaming match with a Republican senator, called him a lunatic, then asked Congress for another eighty seven point six billion dollars for his Iran war that nobody voted for and that even Tucker Carlson is now calling him weak over. He threw himself a Ferris wheel party on the National Mall for America's two hundred fiftieth birthday while the Reflecting Pool stayed green behind him. The Supreme Court handed him a win that makes it easier to strand asylum seekers in danger over a technicality about which side of an imaginary line their toes are touching. My home state of Tennessee put up a granite headstone for fetuses on the Capitol lawn while ranking forty seventh in the country at keeping actual mothers alive.

And the Democrats spent the week calling the candidates their own voters are actually excited about dirtbags.

This episode goes through every receipt. The housing bill hostage situation. The court losses that forced him to Plan B. The Iran war bill. The self inflicted birthday party. The Supreme Court rulings that will get people killed. Tennessee's monument to control. And why the Democratic establishment is more afraid of its own base than it is of any of this.

Let's go.
