Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

What Did I Miss?

I was away at New Englands all weekend and had no time to blog.

But I open the WaPo this morning and see that Trump continues to lose his squash over the Mueller investigation.  Mueller's indictments against Russian interference is a critical first step in his investigation.  Trump has denied or down played Russian meddling in his popular vote defeat/electoral college victory.  His fragile ego can't handle the fact that he won with the biggest asterisk next to his name since Quincy Adams.

His unhinged tweeting is being linked in the story to his absence from the golf course.  Once again, the best thing for America is that Trump is incapable of doing his job.  It is best to keep him distracted and occupied until such time as he leaves office.  Given the monumental id that rages under that fragile ego, a Trump free to focus on his grievances and enemies is sure to do more and more damage to American institutions.

Thanks, Republicans.
