President Donald Trump has floated a bonkers plan to turn the White House briefing room into a pool as he escalates his war on the press.
The 80-year-old president has been spiraling since a judge he appointed ordered him Thursday to temporarily restore the credentials of three outlets—CNN, MS NOW, and Politico—that he tried to ban.
But while he had targeted only those three outlets, whining that their coverage of him has been too "negative," he now appears to be taking aim at the entire press corps covering him....

I keep hoping trump will give some examples of all this FAKE NEWS and LIES but so far, nobody has been able to come up with anything. So it's all just more trump LAW (Lying And Whining). There's just no goddamn end to it..

Like a child acting out, it's gonna get worse as he gets closer to being hammered in the midterms.

Just now came across this article by Daniel Dale, the CNN fact check guy....it kind of sort of "explains" the trump theory of LAW.
Video Shows Trump Appearing Short of Breath in Limousine After Stairs
The footage, recorded on September 27, 2026, shortly before Trump headed to the Presidents Cup golf tournament at Medinah Country Club, prompted observers like Ed Krassenstein to note his heavy breathing even while seated. Posters speculated on reasons from fitness to health issues, though these are unverified social media opinions amid polarized reactions including memes and jabs. Trump later spoke briefly at the event, greeted players, and presented the trophy to the U.S. team, with no White House comment on the video.
Just die already.

Yeah, I noticed that. It's more of "here it is, and this is it" sort of thing. I've always been amazed that NOBODY ever pushes back on trump when he blatantly lies about something. Hell, how hared can it be to tell him "no, that's not true" but I don't think I've ever seen anyone do it. I'd tell him myself if I had the chance. Hell, I wish somebody would throw their shoes at him like that guy did to Dubya that time. If somebody threw a shoe at trump every time he lied, thousands would be wearing one shoe. Or none.
(Councillor Riley) Brockington explained the decision to rename the street was by residents who wanted to distance themselves from President Trump
In the Canadian capital of Ottawa, a street named after Donald Trump is changing its name as the ongoing trade war between Canada and the U.S. continues.
... Ottawa city council passed the motion to rename the street unanimously this week and the residents will vote for a new name of the street....
I propose Sleepy Joe Ave.

Yeah, that explains a lot.
Of course, it's easy to prove your own point if you create your own definitions, but there's no denying there are a lot of people who unexplainably totally fit his definition of "stupid." Actually the conventional definition of "stupid" also.

... Imagine, if you will, if an extraordinarily stupid man were to somehow become secretary of defense, jeopardizing both our soldiers and our position in the world while also promoting a testosterone-based culture that could damage our forces for years....
That hardly takes any imagination at all.
... This is because politicians often have to appeal to the stupid in order to maintain power, ensuring that stupid politicians will always make up a fraction of government officials....

But does "appeal to the stupid" really have to require becoming stupid in office? Broken campaign pledges are pretty much to be expected, and stupid constituents will still believe your lies next campaign, at least enough to keep you in office. Look at Susan Collins: campaigns as a moderate, reasonable, Maine-like person, gets elected, votes like a MAGA, then goes back out and says she didn't mean it and they elect her lying ass again.
Why wouldn't the reverse work? Claim to be MAGA, then vote moderately/reasonably, then go back out and blame somebody else.

I thought it was interesting because the guy came up with his idea fifty years ago. But I think he nailed the methodology of it. The story I posted struck me as very relevant after w3atching Repubican Senators the other day debasing themselves on purpose in service to trump.

MAGAts have long memories and develop stronger grievances.
