It's worse than the Emperor's New Clothes.
The Emperor is not only naked, he also has FUCK YOU ALL tattooed across his back

I didn't even know what UFC was.
I have had a look. It's boxing with a lot of kicking thrown in and some Big daddy style wrestling

And this represents the 250th anniversary of Independence? The US is in trouble

It's basically an advertisement for steroid abuse

There is no way, no way on this Earth, this is going to ever be a win. We knew that from day 1.
But it could be an end to the war. An end to the bombings across ME.
At least it has been confirmed by both US and Iran. And that is an advance, a MoU is a good sign.
Will they manage to fuck it up? Likely, at some point, they will have a disagreement, but I think they will keep at it.
Israel will have to keep to it and that will be a tricky point. Trump has ran out of patience with Netanyahu.

Recruiting for this, I would think

Hold on a moment! So, this drug enhanced -I do not know how to call it...- is actually happening?

That is quite a list of what they are allowed to take!

It was a flop but made a few non enhanced athletes a lot of money

Cannabis ?
Cocaine ?
Heroin® ?

The photos of the crowd are both revealing and scary - a lot of young white men.

He is making a play for the military too - he bigged them up.

I always think we underestimate Trump at our peril.

What does he need most? VOTES.

He is after the audience this UFC brings. It is big in California for example. It is also really big amongst the young Gen Zs.

Even if he loses the next election, he is feeding something now that will not go away.

Trump is not a blip - he tapped into something out there.

Nope, not yet....
Maybe on the next go?
Do I want whatever Trump is on or not? I cannot make my mind.....
Maybe I just stay as I am. I may win something if I keep my heart going on healthy for longer than the enhanced guys.....

If you rewind 250 years, and excise all that bullshit about liberty and similar nonsense, you realise that the entire American project really was just about evading taxes.

And still is.

People often speculate on fundamental differences between Britain and the US. Maybe the most basic is that most people in the UK understand how tax works.

Yes, if you look at Trump at a single time point, he is useless, incapable and dangerous.
But if you look at the trajectory overtime, the scheme, how he got there and what he achieved is clear. And he does, somehow, get what he wants. Consistently.

The Kennedy Center Tarp now has 2 very permanent looking entry points created in it. It looks like it's staying until further legal action requires its removal. I hope the Judge awards costs against Trump personally

Remember how many of the electorate voted for him, not just once, but twice? Something is fundamentally rotten in the states of America, to mis-quote Shakespeare.

state ? or states ?

Yes, no doubt. They voted him in twice. But, for me, that they let him do and say the things he does and say without not even stirring.... that is quite telling.
Congress is... nothing
That is precisely what we are saying. It works for him. He gets away with it all. Gets exactly what he wants. There is no mountain high enough.
Trump is not to be understimated. There is purpose behind the chaos.

He's more dangerous second time around not only because the Supreme Court basically gave him Carte Blanche, and also because his mental state is much more erratic . His desire for Legacy has become all consuming

It's interesting that Nixon was only evicted after he threatened to stay and burn the GOP to the ground if he were not pardoned (and he also considered pardoning himself).

I don't think it will be removed until Trump is.

(a) the judge only said to remove the Trump line - they did not actually say you could not remove the Kennedy line.

And it's hard to argue that the Trump line has not been removed. After all I can't see it. Can you ?

Remember contempt for the judiciary is part and parcel of the dictators playbook.

Oh he's leaving a legacy alright. Shame he won't be around to see just what that legacy will be. I don't think the history books will remember him kindly.

Or his offspring.

Very true.

Kill me now.

Well, also settlers wanting to expand further west and the British government being reluctant to allow that.
And some crazy people who had a theory that George3 was secretly a Catholic and wanted to make everyone a Catholic
And some people with genuinely idealistic views about creating a country with new ideas about the ideal forms of government
