Painted Into A Corner
Nothing really new happening in the Iran war. Our leader still has no exit strategy. He has been defeated in every area: nukes, missiles, control of the Strait of Hormuz and, Corey Booker says, is being played for a fool on the world stage. Domestically, the longer the war lasts, the worse it gets for the midterms.
His oversized ego will not permit him to admit anything but an American victory. Meanwhile, Netanyahu is still pummeling Hezbollah. No end in sight. Just the usual litany of lies.
So what does he do? Blow up a few more Iranian boats.
If the city of Washington hasn’t been disgraced enough with an arch, a ballroom and the demise of the Kennedy center, this classless maniac is now planning an event for his eightieth birthday whereupon two twenty-first century gladiators beat the shit out of each other on the White House lawn before a cheering crowd of thousands. Really!
If the Republicans lose the Senate, still a longshot but getting somewhat more likely, look for lame duck resignations of Alito and Thomas to be replaced by Aileen Cannon and some other young conservative ideologue. Republican leaders (the real ones) want to insure a conservative majority for the next thirty years and this is the only way they can guarantee it.
