Trump is showing himself to be breathtakingly stupid and lazy, much to the surprise of no one with more than a handful of functioning brain cells.

Let’s unconditionally release hundreds of violent criminals and then spend money to cause food inflation to spike. What a frickin’ moron.

There is no quicker way to cause a long and deep recession, along with inflationary food prices, than to screw up California, which has the largest GDP of any state. California’s crop value is 59% greater than number 2, Illinois.

Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.

California sends more money to the federal government than it gets back by a ratio of over 5 to 1. So when they’re in trouble, let’s withhold money to hurt them.

Like I said, Trump and the obsequious Republican Party is doing more damage to America than any of our enemies have done.

You can fix a lot, but you can’t fix stupid.


In 2023, California's gross domestic product (GDP) was about $3.9 trillion, comprising 14% of national GDP ($27.7 trillion). Texas and New York are the next largest state economies, at 9% and 8%, respectively. California's economy ranks fifth internationally, behind the US, China, Germany, and Japan.

The five states with the highest value of crop sales are California, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, and Nebraska. With its large horticultural sector, California's overall crop value of more than $33 billion (in 2017) is about 59 percent higher than that of Illinois, the second-ranked State.

California’s Federal Tax Dollars Paid per Dollar of Support Received is over 5 times.

Revenge is the top priority for the little orange ogre. And for most MAGAs, too.

Now, if and when his loyal cult followers start to abandon him, he will change course. Big if.

People have short memories. It was only 4-8 years ago that we experienced the Felon. He was soundly defeated in 2020 (despite his claims...he lost by 7M votes). Did conservatives find someone else? Rubio? Johnson? Nope...they went right back to the toxic moron who harmed them (and the nation) the first time.

"Thank you, sir, may I have another."
