GREAT GUY = A fellow member of Epstein's Hellfire club

Or a dictator Military General like Failed Marshal Asim Munir and his lackey, Shahbaz Sharif, who are bent on destroying Pakistan.

Major TV networks halt pool coverage of Trump over CNN ban CNN, along with MS NOW and Politico, also said it was suing over the ban, which the president defended as “an assault on the FAKE NEWS.”

Major television networks will halt TV coverage of presidential events, according to a memo obtained by The Washington Post, over the White House’s ban of CNN — which was barred alongside MS NOW and Politico in recent days — while the three news organizations have said they’re suing the government, alleging violations of their First Amendment free press rights and Fifth Amendment due process rights.


“This is to advise that, effective today, the TV pool will not be covering events designated as pool coverage of the President,” Bryan Boughton, the Fox News Washington bureau chief and current chair of the TV pool, wrote in a memo to the White House press corps that was obtained by The Post.


“This follows the White House’s position preventing CNN from fulfilling its assigned pool duties. There will be no replacement pool put in place. All other pool coverage will continue as normal, including Congress, VIPs, and selected events in Washington and around the country.”

The same people that said, “We’ll all be dead in twelve years because of Global Warming,” a name since “reborn” to Climate Change, because the Planet was cooling, not warming, and nobody was dead, are the people that are now saying that AI is going to kill us, that robots are going to attack us, and everything is a DISASTER.
This is more of a Hoax than even that of RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, and Climate Change!
Whoever wins AI, WINS!
We are leading now over China, and everyone else, and I’m going to keep it that way! I’m not going to stifle Growth, of something that will be bigger than the Industrial Revolution, or the Internet, itself.
We will be careful, and that’s why we have the Department of Justice, and other Law Enforcement bodies, that will rein things in if we have to, but I will only encourage AI or, SI (SUPER INTELLIGENCE)!
President DONALD J. TRUMP

If Senate Republicans don’t TERMINATE THE FILIBUSTER, the Dumocrats will, and I will be, despite how well our Party is doing, the last Republican President!
The Dumocrats will vote in Puerto Rico (4% Republican Vote), and Washington, D.C. (3% Republican Vote), pick up 4 Senators, 8 Congressmen/women, tremendous numbers of Popular and Electoral College Votes and, importantly, control the Voting Mechanisms and Systems, both Legal and otherwise, throughout the United States.
It will be impossible for Republicans to ever win an Election again.
In other words, it will be THE END OF AMERICA!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
President DONALD J. TRUMP

Stop threatening me with a good time.

American Research Group, a decidedly conservative entity, has Trump down to a record low of 29 in approval rating.

In the meantime, he'll do whatever he wants without repercussions. His approval rating could be 1% and he wouldn't give the slightest fuck. Assuming he leaves office 2028, he'll shuffle off tens of billions of dollars richer regardless of his approval rating. Considering all the self-dealing for himself and his family, they'll continue to make billions in the future.

Given SCOTUS' ruling that a POTUS is protected from all acts if it's an "official" act, all Trump has to say is that everything he did was an official act. IOW, If the President Does It, It's Not Illegal."

I appreciate being thanked for my attention to this matter. It makes high gas and food prices, and vomit inducing corruption all worth it.

I don't have time to find the link right now, but one psychiatrist said that due to his cognitive decline, Trump will likely be drooling like a toddler by the midterms. He is a very mentally ill deranged man with obvious symptoms of dementia and you don't need to be a mental health care professional to see that. All we can do is hope that he is either dead soon or Congress will finally due the right thing and remove him from office. They can simply point out that due to his mental status, he is unfit. It's amazing to me that there are still around 29% of people left in his cult.

By fall of next year they’ll be looking to dissociate entirely, and will probably remove him from office. I don’t think the entire GOP has a political death wish. And sticking with someone so obviously incapable and demented would be political suicide. The “Trump is great and doing great things” schtick isn’t going to fly with any more than the 30% Stoopids.

W had steadfast support through term one. It dropped a bit, but still solid until the '06 mid-terms. And then it got relatively low for GOP support level standards.

GOP support for W, Gallup
'03 ~90%
'04 ~90%
'05 ~85%
'06 ~80%
'07 ~73%
'08 ~68%

We would have to see that happen for Mitch first before I could entertain the notion that the GOP would do that for Trump.

So Trump's approval rating broke below the 33% mark. I thought 33% was Trump's floor. That it was his David Puddy Line.

A top psychiatrist has issued a new warning about what she described as President Donald Trump's deteriorating mental health, comparing his behavior to that of a "toddler" responding to feelings of helplessness.

Dr. Bandy Lee, a forensic and social psychiatrist who previously taught at Harvard and Yale, has long voiced concerns about the health of the 80-year-old president — which the White House has dismissed as "false speculation for political purposes."

Lee edited the 2017 book,The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump, and earlier this year was among 36 physicians who signed an open letter calling for the president's removal under the 25th Amendment. The letter cited a "marked deterioration in cognitive functioning."



In an interview with MeidasTouch this weekend, Lee said that several recent developments had intensified her concerns.

She pointed to Trump's remarks on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, including his claim that firefighters had to carry him away from Ground Zero shortly after the Twin Towers collapsed.

Kind of irrelevant considering that The Felon is polling around HALF those support numbers.

Here's more, not that it takes a medical professional to realize these claims.

Doctors who have warned for months about Donald Trump's cognitive state say his decline is accelerating, with a string of June incidents driving fresh calls for transparency from a White House that waited three days until a late Friday evening to release his latest physical exam results.

Clinical psychologist John Gartner, a former assistant professor at Johns Hopkins University Medical School, told The Daily Beast on 11 June that Trump's habit of veering into long monologues about projects bearing his name is consistent with one of the established warning signs of dementia. 'Tangential speech is one of the diagnostic criteria for dementia,' Gartner said, arguing that the 79-year-old president is 'in dramatic neurological decline'.

36 Doctors Tell Congress Trump Is Mentally Unfit​

On 30 April 2026, 36 physicians from Harvard, Tufts, Columbia, and George Washington University filed a formal statement that Senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Jack Reed entered into the Congressional Record. The signatories, including neurologists, psychiatrists, geriatricians, and a Nobel laureate, called Trump 'mentally unfit' and warned of a 'rapidly worsening, reality-untethered, increasingly dangerous decline'.

The doctors stopped short of a formal diagnosis. They cited what they described as 'marked deterioration in cognitive functioning', 'grandiose and delusional beliefs', 'reckless threats of violence', and 'apparent somnolence during critical public proceedings'.

Whatever it is.. 29%, 35%, 33%, which is usually the figure given for the die-hards, I won't talk with them. It would be senseless. They'd be enraged at my attitude, and I freely admit I'd be horrified at them. I always want to ask them about the Trumpisms that show how ill this man is. They don't see how juvenile he's always been? "Gavin Newscum." "Lake America." These stupid notions come out of a dull-witted child's mind.
They don't see how sick it is to want your name on some other President's memorial? They can't tell how stone-cold ignorant he is on all the things on which he pontificates -- take your pick: tariffs, climate change, windmills, crime rates from the undocumented, how to pronounce Yosemite -- THIS JACKASS IS PRESIDENT AND COULD NOT RECOGNIZE AND PRONOUNCE YOSEMITE. Jesus, didn't he watch Yosemite Sam as a kid?
Let me catch my breath. Yeah, I don't talk with the 33%. We're both better off.

So... who wants to fuck up the diesel market? Very short article, but unless this is a TACO thing, the Trump Admin is looking at a Diesel Export ban. The Trump Admin is saying this isn't true.

A ban would drive prices up across the globe, make diesel prices drop in the US... but then pop back up to where they were. link

Any ban would likely push US refineries to cut the amount of crude they process.

If US refineries cut runs, it would also lower the amount of gasoline and other products produced and push up prices for those fuels, analysts and traders said.

"Given that a surplus of diesel in the US could paradoxically force American refiners to cut supplies of oil products – potentially within a few weeks – a ban would ultimately be self-defeating," Capital Economics said in a note.

Restricting US diesel exports would wreak havoc on fuel markets in the US and abroad, destabilize refinery operations and ‌deepen a ⁠global refining crisis, said the American Petroleum Institute, a major trade group.

"A ban could raise world prices by as much as 100%, given the fuel’s low price elasticity of demand," said energy economist Philip Verleger.

Well he only needs the effect in the US to last a couple of weeks, if he times the ban for mid-October.

You don't seriously think that fucking up the entire world, including (or even particularly) the USA, would in any way give him pause in implementing a change that might slightly improve his party's performance in the mid-terms, do you?

I suspect that his base would be ecstatic at a sharp drop in diesel prices, and would utterly fail to heed any warnings about future prices, or about devastating effects on the US economy in the not-quite-as-short term.
