King of the Seven Kingdoms in exile. Father of three, master of none. Political bard, soothsayer. I call out general MAGA shittery. Formerly Rex Alcairum.

@RichardC90564 @AP This plea deal doesn't mean it's not retribution. It'll only be undone by the next President regardless.

@CharlotteAlter Not sure what universe you're in.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@greggnunziata Nah.

@KenGardner11 Nothing we are doing in Iran is moral.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@DarioCpx Well, since we've never had all-out war with Iran, I'm not sure this means anything at all.

@raefejenkins And she'll be unsuccessful. She can do this because she's in the government. The average person would get laughed at.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@ChrisMartzWX Odd line in the sand, but okies.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@greggnunziata But he's not wrong. How to reconcile?

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@DanielLDavis1 There is a small army of partisans in the Oval Office tasked with making graphics the President himself can understand and crow about. They have to keep him satiated so he doesn't destroy things.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@MysterySolvents I'm convinced there is a small army of people whose sole purpose is to produce graphics Trump can understand and crow about.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@DrNeilStone How about stopping the war because we went in without clear goals or a way to actually succeed?

@masonls1066 Conservatives have a black & white view of things. When they're in power overlong, it affects the rest of the nation. Thankfully that's changing.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@RMConservative Nah. We've just reached a point in our country where there is no longer any grey, just black and white, and it's enforced from the Presidency on down.

@JoelMCurzon The fact that people say there is a LGBTQ movement in 2026 is fascinating revisionist history. It's akin to referencing the Civil Rights movement or the Women's Suffrage movement in the modern era. It's an anachronism.

@JustinWStapley There is a bigoted red meat proffer because Republicans understand how to speak to and inflame their base. Frankly, it's easy to do. Buzzwords work.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@JohnnyNash77 Honestly, under what currently forseeable events could it define Trump's legacy as legendary?

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@JesseBWatters 4 Republicans have a conscience...and remembered their oaths of office.

[John William Bass Jr. @CairoTiger]

@DastDn Happened well before that...but there is no 'trans offensive' just a manufactured perception of one.

@RespectableCon Evangelicals and Catholics.

@Jakethecrazy19 @DerekPederson3 Christian nationalism is appealing because it promotes autocracy, and autocracy is palatable to those who would propound their own belief system upon all others.
