How much is too much?

I saw on Tv a squib of Bernie Sanders talking about the 25th Amendment, sounding like the 2015-16 Bernie. The MSN home page offers a nonstop parade of squibs raising Cain about Trump and Israel and their downright EVIL effort to eliminate Iran from planet earth.

This is in contrast to the cynicism du jour which holds that Americans as a whole are too dim to grasp what the war on Iran is all about. I don't necessarily disagree about the dimness of people, but I do not agree with fatalism as a way of life.

We all have to ask ourselves how much of Trump and Israel is too much to tolerate. And then what if anything we will do about it.

Crazy is an easy word to toss around -- but how else do we understand the Ormuz Two-Step? Destroy a civilization for blocking it. No! Trump blocks it himself.

The culture is moving toward a ritualistic rejection of the Orange Fart Cloud.

We don't have to like how it plays out, but it is a lot better than World War III.

Although we are still given some agency to 'choose'
whether to tune in or out of current affairs, the ability
to alter trends is diminishing rapidly. I believe the upper
classes recognize the threat posed by the uncontrolled
media and are therefore attempting to constrict the flow of
information to the masses to hold on to their 'power'. We have
the sheer numbers, they control the financial system, MSM and
politicians.. The wild card is the military. Do they side with the
constitution or not? If so, the Epstein class is in trouble.

Zionism is a social disease

We get no "choice." And we are not going to play any role in running off Trump. The existing power structure will find a way to get rid of him.

My post is intended only as a passive observation. He appears to be batshit crazy which is a hell of a surprise to people who hired him to act crazy.

We should not worry about how Trump exits the world stage. Just when.

Trump’s Crypto Ventures ‘Hurting’ Industry

Speaking at the 2026 Semafor World Economy summit in Washington, D.C., Scaramucci specifically criticized the Official Trump TRUMP memecoin, which has lost nearly all its value since peak levels.

“If you’re in opposition to the president and he’s launching meme coins, which are now down 96-97% right now, that’s going to hurt our ability to get the legislation done that’s important for the industry,” the Bitcoin BTC bull said.

The brand name is now toxic.

I can see one possible scenario (among many):

The war with Iran is still happening. Israel is still annihilating villages in Lebanon and destroying skyscrapers in Beirut. The UAE has largely been depopulated because there is not enough of an energy infrastructure there to last the summer. The economy is in a tailspin, in the US but, especially, in those portions of the world dependent upon Persian Gulf oil. Taiwan is slowly being integrated into the rest of China. But all of this has been interrupted, for a day, because a committee appointed by Congress has convened to depose the President. The President is removed from power, and JD Vance becomes President.

Nothing else changes.

The problem, of course, is that the majority of the world's politicians are mere creatures of money, empty suits which can be plied by Zionist billionaires. But the removal of Trump offers the world a dramatic opportunity to see this, and to see that an alternative to capitalism will be necessary if there is to be a society not ruled by creatures of money.

So, yes. Remove Trump from power. It will mean one less excuse. "Oh we can't do X because Trump is in power." That will be gone.

about how removing Trump does not accomplish a whole lot, but I won't miss him when he's gone.

(which he isn't), he could have claimed he was LARPing as the Magician from the Rider-Waite tarot deck: https://tarotx.net/tarot-card-meanings/rider-waite/the-magician.html I don't think anyone would have believed that either, but it would at least not have been so totally moronic.

(Yes there are some images of JC that have a white robe with a red over-robe - I checked.)

Veteran Democratic strategist James Carville on Wednesday warned that he believes Donald Trump’s mental state has reached a dangerous turning point.

Speaking on the latest episode of his “Politics War Room” podcast, Carville referenced Aesop’s “The Boy Who Cried Wolf” fable as he acknowledged that critics have long raised concerns about Trump’s behavior and called him “crazy.”

“But I think that he’s turned a corner, and turned a corner in a really substantial way,” he cautioned.

“It’s a bad situation right now, and honestly — I’ve cried wolf so many times, but I think this time it’s really the wolf. I really do,” he added.

“I think we’re on a short leash, I really do,” he said later.

Carville’s warning comes amid fresh scrutiny of Trump, who in recent days has drawn bipartisan backlash for his attacks on Pope Leo and for sharing — and then deleting — an AI-generated image of himself as Jesus, which has prompted calls from some Democratic lawmakers to consider using the 25th Amendment to remove him from office.

How weird is too weird? Now we know.

Let's hope somebody has hidden The Button.

@QMS @QMS I can imagine a sketch with Dan Akroyd in an orange wig and makeup looking all over the oval office for that damned button. Because Finland has pissed him off and needs a big, beautiful nuking.

Always in the last place you look, and goodbye, Finland.
