He promised to end the CoupKraine war Day 1. Then his proxies said that was hyperbole. He'll do it in the first hunnid. Reasonable folks said okay. Where's the beef? He's shooting for some sort of Korean DMZ in CoupKraine - the opposite of statecraft. Just leave a hot war on simmer with a flimsy firewall and hope for the best. And Putin, the Russian political establishment, and the Russian people, will never accept that. They're full grown - not adolescents like the American political establishment and the American public. So the CoupKraine war goes on, because the man who helped start it refuses to own it. 

He promised to take on the deep state. Said the pentagon budget should be cut by half. A hunnid in, he's gifting THE MOST PROFLIGATE, MOST DEEP STATE government agency a trillion dollars. Not cutting. Giving a raise. To the beating heart of the deep state.

He promised to cool things in the M.E. He's dropping bombs and rattling sabers in the middle east.

Trump's tariffs will CONSIDERABLY impact the YOU. Think, 2 dolls instead of 30. 2 gallons of gas instead of 30. 2 rolls of toilet paper instead of 30. When the rest of our groceries catch up with eggs, then something else has to give. Amazon's business model is being crippled - which in turn hurts consumers. The post office and UPS and Fed Ex are all harmed by this. They have to pay the bills, so shipping costs will increase. All that free shipping we're getting with prime and  walmart plus? That will go away - raising the cost of your groceries and necessaries.

I could accept all of this with equanimity. In exchange, I wanted to see a return to republic and citizenship, as opposed to continuing the empire. I wanted Trump to take on the deep state instead of giving the deep state positions in his cabinet and fat raises while I am told to downsize my life to fit my shrinking dollar.  

Just like last term - and we were promised he had learnt from it, - Trump put deep state operatives into his cabinet. A soros hedge fund manager. A blackrock ceo. Investment bankers. Hard core neocons. Little marco the ruby, OH! 

Kash was going to get to the bottom of all that corruption. The folks who BOWED TO TERRORISTS were going to be looking for work. The folks who SPIED ON TRUMP'S CAMPAIGN would be sent packing. Instead, there was rollicking good banter for the cameras, and then there was business as usual. The FBI is currently focused on Fentanyl - not corruption. It stays. I have no idea what the DEA is focused on - bank robberies, perhaps?

And they cut Kennedy's balls off. He's in Oklahoma and Texas, strenuously advising people to take the MMR vax that he wrote a book warning against and started an NGO advocating against. Obviously, they have photos. 

Trump has done SOME good regarding trans insanity. But has not killed the snake. He has thrown us a bone. It is stopped FOR NOW. He has not REDRESSED the grievance - has not rooted it out. It continues unabated in many states. He has not put a stop to it even federally, but only a pause. It will be as easy as signing an EO for the next guy to interrupt the interregnum. Trump and the Party are simply taking a break from it. It will be back.

I am giving Trump a D. He would get an F, but he receives one full letter grade for never having had Willie Brown's dick in his mouth - unlike some people who run for president in this drain-circling sheep ranch of a country.
