Trump cabinet vibes

Outside of the idiocy and venal nature of his decision, let's admire how this picture of Bezos makes him look like an uneven 2-earringed Mr. Clean

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Jeff Bezos, the billionaire owner of The Washington Post, said on Monday in his first comments that the decision to end presidential endorsements at the paper had been done to improve the newsroom’s credibility, not to protect his own personal interests. https://t.co/jj9i1Yzsqh

Former President Trump had 44 cabinet secretaries. 40 of them don’t support his 2024 campaign.

Neither does his Vice President nor any of his former chiefs of staff.

@JessicaCalarco Man here. A woman doing well does not prevent me from getting ahead. Same applies to another man.

NEW: Trump isn’t running a political campaign; he’s mounting a disinformation operation. These are different things. That’s the key to understanding this race & this moment in US political history. I explain all in my latest piece. Please read & share.

Donald Trump put more thought and planning into overthrowing our government than he did to combat Covid.

@BittrScrptReadr Just watched and wholeheartedly agree. Plot, meta elements, jokes, Conan. Cherry on top: the parodies in the credits!

Me, a little stoned: “Actually, Twitter, this is not exactly the scenario in THE PURGE. In THE PURGE, the civilians also have the freedom to kill whoever they want. In this scenario, he’s saying the police alone get a free hour.”

@warrenleightTV @MeghanMcCain She has the exact wrong takeaway: it's not hypocrisy for a progressive to embrace a former political opponent acknowledging Trump's existential threat. Rather, it should be a signpost moment for her to reevaluate. There's a simple logic tree for conservatives to vote for Kamala.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

First, he got Roe overturned.
Then, he got abortion banned in 20 states.
Now he’s voting for an abortion ban in the state where he lives.

If elected, he’ll sign a nationwide abortion ban if it crosses his desk.

Breaking News: Donald Trump plans to name his former rival, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Tulsi Gabbard, a onetime Democrat, as honorary co-chairs of his presidential transition team that will help him select policies and personnel. https://t.co/OuJnolA9RO

@BittrScrptReadr Doesn't happen that easily, but I teared up barely a third of the way through

@Jamie_Nash Golden Girls was so good at this. Admittedly, no literal backstabbing
