Trump has been in office for his second term for 6 months and a day. So much has happened. So many decrees. So many efforts to dismantle the federal government. So many sycophants praising their boss and laughing at his jokes and doing his bidding seemingly without the slightest bit of self-awareness or shame.Elon is out but DOGE is still apparently trying to cut billions in spending while Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” was passed and we can look forward to adding trillions of dollars to the national deficit in coming years.

Meanwhile, companies are setting law suits with Trump after publishing anything he doesn’t like (even though they’re usually telling the truth) and CBS has cancelled Stephen Colbert’s show after claiming it was losing millions of dollars every year. Not surprisingly, Trump lauds the cancellation and says that “Kimmel is next.” His televised interviews consisting of softball questions are conducted by his family members and friends who don’t dare to question his lame-brained responses. His spokesperson, Karoline Leavitt spouts propaganda at each press conference while pulling the press credentials of any reporter who asks a question she doesn’t like.

There’s a small but growing chink in the armor of this President – the Epstein files.

Although I’m almost sure it will amount to nothing, it will be interesting to see how this plays out with Trump’s base who seem to be suddenly aware that he lies about everything.
