Everything Trump Touches Dies
Everything Trump Touches Dies is a book by Rick Wilson, long-time Republican strategist, political commentator and never-Trumper, that captures Trump's entire career in its four word title. Elon should've taken note.
Their mutual admiration gland-handling had a slightly longer shelf-life than a Liz Truss lettuce and we all knew the end was coming. The entirely transactional relationship between these two narcissistic psychopaths is not the foundation of an enduring, selfless friendship.
Neither of these soulless ghouls has any true friends. All they have are sycophants, parasites, credulous simpletons and cultists seeking validation of their own hatreds and bigotry comforted by corporate media's cowed droogs and complicit careerists and the amoral moguls of Murdoch, Bezos, Zuckerberg et al who all bent the knee to Trump's gleichschaltung.
The rationalisation for the Trump-Musk public displays of disaffection by the more rabid MAGAfied Musk-a-teers is that this is a clash of two big swinging dicks - the ultimate alpha males seeking dominance as a ritual of nature. The image of two blubbery, pasty lard buckets with the muscle tone of half-deflated innertubes bumping sweaty moobs in a hoppo-bumpo contest for top dog status may satisfy the somewhat homo-erotic delusions and torn loyalties of the nuttier fringes of slack-jawed RWFW effluvia but most will need to pick a side.
Despite their prominence both the Dementadon and the delightfully nicknamed Sissy Space-X are needy sooks desperate for approval. That one inhabits the most powerful office on the planet and the other is its richest says something disturbing about the U.S., if not all humanity. Regardless of humankind's achievements, misanthropes can feel vindicated.
"...the Fox News viewer really does represent middle America.”
Lachie Murdoch, who I suspect is not far off the mark.
Trump is forever the aggrieved and vengeful Rumpledthinskin whom Obama ridiculed at the 2011 White House Correspondents' Association dinner setting in train the orange-stuccoed lunatic's quest for pay back. Trump is the Fates' plaything with which to puncture our species' self- regard by favouring an otherwise cartoonish serial failure and career criminal as Citizen #1 while, as if to emphasise the irony, also toying with his fragile conceit to incite his pathetic bleatings about his own specialness.
In the bizarre space in Trump's head, anyone who says nice things about him is, by definition, an exemplar - an encouragement for lickspittles and trucklers and mass murdering manipulators to flatter the ego of a bloviating moron who brags about being able to identify a camel on a cognitive test. Conversely of course, anyone testing Trump's insecurities by challenging his braggadocio and fantastical achievements is targeted for malicious attacks. Elmo has crossed that Rubicon and the spectacle is hugely entertaining but filled with portent. These are two of the four worst yet most consequential people on earth after all.
For his part, the Space Nazi, the richest ever man, tragically seeks validation from "the cool kids" - the tech bros, gamers (FFS!) and the dregs of RW trolls who haunt his Xitter app.
Elmo could solve world hunger and still be rich but he chooses not to. Instead his DOGE killed off USAID and Boston University modelling estimated that, at the time, 310,445 people died mostly by starvation as a consequence. “Nature ran a piece finding that 25 million people could die as a result of ending USAID. This puts Trump and Musk in the category of the most brutal leaders of the 20th century in terms of unnecessary lives lost.” - Don Moynihan, professor of policy at the University of Michigan.
Could he and would he break MAGA? "Musk’s money, platform, and own legion of followers can pose a formidable threat to the MAGA movement" claimed one pundit.
“Trump has 3.5 years left as president, but I will be around for 40+ years.”
Elmo on Xitter
No doubt watching on in bemusement will be furniture fornicator JD Vance with the biggest boner he's had since he took the drawers from that cute oak veneer nightstand.
Everything Trump Touches Dies. Rick Wilson "...the blazing, white-hot embrace of actual, honest-to-God stupidity has been as contagious as smallpox and as fatal as Ebola."
Spot on, as usual, I had forgotten the spur that drives Trump besides money is his enmity towards Obama. The clip from 2011 is almost the halcyon days.
My prediction - the big beautiful bill will get revised and then passed by congress and senate , whereupon Trump will declare that is what he planned all along. Stealing from the poor to give to the rich.
When will the right wing realise that you get what you pay for. They pay higher taxes in other countries but they are happy because they have a fairer society without the inequity which causes social problems.
When will the right wing get past the old testament eye for an eye and read the New Testament such as love thy neighbour?
Donny Kleinwiener and Musky McMuskrat is a match up for the ages. It reminds me of the cover from that great Moody Blues album, 'A Question of Balance'. Where the band are depicted sitting in deck chairs viewing all that was wrong in the world. The whole world can now view these selfish individuals destroy themselves and allow us all to move on in relative comfort. Moonwatcher, from 2001 A Space odyssey, had more intelligence in his hirsute hand wrapped around that bone than these two boneheads.
