These people have zero self-awareness and just pretend that Trump hasn't tried to prosecute more than 48 of his political enemies

You reap what you sow.

A mighty and a fearful head they are, As ever offered foul play in a state

-- Henry IV, Part 1 (Act 3, Scene 2)

 


Trump obviously has dual loyalties but Abdul doesn't?

Trump's loyalty to Putin has paved the way for people like Abdul on the other side.

Our politics is in shatters as a result. 

Abdul is a missile aimed straight at U.S. support for Israel on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

Why is the hopeful first Muslim senator against U.S. support for Israel?

Because he knows that a defenseless Israel is a vulnerable Israel. It's anti-semitism dressed up as Trump's phony America First malarkey.  

As of October 11 the Jewish mayor of Lansing still hadn't endorsed Abdul. 

Lansing’s mayor still mulling whether to endorse El-Sayed for Senate 

Citing concerns about Israel, Lansing Mayor Andy Schor said he was still debating whether to back Abdul E-Sayed for U.S. Senate despite the two Democrats' private meeting on Friday.

... He pointed to two issues that he hopes to hear El-Sayed “expand upon" publicly.

One was El-Sayed's view on Israel’s right to exist, which El-Sayed has stopped short of embracing. The other was his position on U.S. military support to Israel to defend itself, which he emphatically opposes.

Schor said he didn’t know “yet” if he would endorse El-Sayed. ... 

 


Andy McCarthy calls out Mad King Ludwig and his supine Congress

 


 Andy McCarthy Shreds Trump for Giving ‘Aid and Comfort’ to Putin in Scorching Column — Demands Congress Investigate Immediately

 ... “Putin’s war of aggression and hoped-for conquest against Ukraine, like his war of aggression and conquest in Georgia (swaths of which he has occupied for nearly two decades), is part of his quest to reconstitute America’s Soviet enemy,” McCarthy wrote. “And President Donald Trump is giving him aid and comfort.”

McCarthy added, “In a properly functioning republic, there would be immediate hearings about this week’s shocking escalation of the Trump–Putin alliance. Since the start of Trump’s second term, it has been excruciating to watch America’s president blame the victim, our ally Ukraine, for Putin’s war of aggression.”

... “This week, in lunatic public statements … the president again blamed Ukraine for the war and gratuitously insulted Zelensky,” McCarthy said. 

... “If we … allow common sense to enter the equation, too many dark signs point in the direction of an American administration — at the very moment it was seeking Ukraine’s capitulation and threatening to leave it defenseless by denying intelligence — taking conscious action that left Ukraine exposed to an intense attack, which Russia just happens to have conducted right at the perfect time,” McCarthy wrote. “This is dark. It demands answers. Now.”

As far as I'm concerned this is an unforgiveable moral stain on the GOP for which every Republican down the ticket deserves to lose in November for failing to speak out publicly against Trump

As if what happened to these two weren't enough.

NOT for their anti-semitism . . .

Down, down, down he goes, where he stops nobody knows

Trump new low approval 37.6%.

 


Donald Trump is Marco Rubio's Thumos personified

 


... he grows worse from having power: he becomes and is of necessity more jealous, more faithless, more unjust, more friendless, more impious, than he was at first; he is the purveyor and cherisher of every sort of vice, and the consequence is that he is supremely miserable, and that he makes everybody else as miserable as himself. ...

Is the Trump economic policy doing anything positive for economic growth since 2016?

 Only if you squint.

The trend line inclines slightly from 1.3% seasonally adjusted annual rate in mid-2016 to 2.5% in mid-2026.

That's just part of a larger negative trend, however, since the Reagan Revolution in the 1980s. With the exception of the pandemic circus in 2020, quarterly real GDP hasn't been close to 10% since the mid-1980s.

We have fallen from a great height.
