The airports are grounded, the farmers are broke, and the President thinks tariffs are a peace treaty.

Authoritarianism always begins by canceling flights of reason.

Blessed be the pilots talking to each other when the towers go silent,

the farmers who see through the fog of tariffs,

and the citizens who know that when a regime blames “Antifa” for everything,

it’s usually hiding a mirror.

While Stephen miller and others of similar nature in the administration are running most things, you can always tell what things came from Trump.

The gaudy gold decorations in the White House.

The gaudy gold decorated, huge ballroom at the White House

The UFC event scheduled at the White House

The large flag poles at the White House

The paving over of the rose garden at the White House

The indictment of Comey

The childishly mean postings on social media against his 'enemies'.

Bombing of boats, to show how tough he is...

How can we make sure the skies are not clear between DC and Mar-a-Lago or Bedminster or whereever he wants to go, to spend my money on his weekend vacations. We need to have him transport delayed big time and let the "little people" fly high!!

Let him fly economy class if they really want to save money.

But why are we into hoeing the same ground

‘ad nauseam’ about the last election?

How about working on some solutions? OR, to heck with it and make some strategic plans?

Read a comment recently where the person predicted it would be the Air traffic Controllers, as they worked without pay, overworked and under great stress, calling in sick, with too few of them to offer any 'buffer' that would create the collapse of our airports, forcing the end of the closing of the government. This has been made quicker by the poor economy (of Trump's creation) and the stupidity and unreasonableness of Trump's lack of desire to negotiate, prompting workers to have less tolerance, patience or hope for the eventual opening of the government again.

Just wanted to give credit to the post and note how the signs are already here.

Hassett is one of the Trumpettes that I can't watch with his schidt eating smile that doesn't reach his eyes. Thanks for the warning so that I don't accidentally open a video with him on it. But here's a story that just popped up on my Nextdoor: a guy who has been prescribed the meds he needs in the past but now can't get, because every doc in Tucson that he's called has expressed fear of reprisal from Bobby if they prescribed those meds now. His younger brother died from it, so he may die, too. Here we go! A true story in my back yard. May they all go to the Netherworld.

Thank goodness my trip from Asia had no connection through USA this year . It was very stressful last year through LA . I made sure no USA connection this time. Now be worse I’d bet.
