Ever since he disappeared during Labor Day weekend and subsequently altered his schedule, Trump has looked and sounded weaker and older than ever. Not a bright man to begin with, his blurting out about his "successful" dementia tests and MRI results combined with him falling asleep during meetings suggest that Trump's juice is drained. He's a lame brained lame duck.
This informs the recent spurt of news about seemingly bizarre decisions coming from the White House. The "peace plan" that Steve Witkoff produced doesn't make sense, unless we accept to conditions. The first is that Trump loves Putin. Sure, that's part of it. But Putin also dangled lucrative bribes for Witkoff and Jared Kushner. This administration can be bought.
Don't believe me? We had the outright admission from Secretary of War Crimes Pete Hegseth that he ordered the military to shoot survivors of the attacks on those Venezuelan boats. This blatant war crime was "justified" by saying they had to keep these dangerous drugs out of the US. With almost the same press release, we learn that Trump is going to pardon Honduran president Juan Orlando Hernandez, who had been convicted of...wait for it...working with drug cartels. This one only makes sense as a cash grab by someone.
Trump? Maybe, but I doubt it. The fact is that he has surrounded himself with fellow grifters and grafters, and he will sign anything a hot blonde puts in front of him. Since he can't be challenged by the media, any reporter who asks him about it, he attacks. It's a perfect grift. Take a bribe from the Crypto guy or a drug runner, put the paper in front of the senile old man and cash in, especially if you believe that his days are numbered.
There are basically two factions working together in the Executive Branch right now. You have the outright fascists like Miller and Hegseth and then the blatantly corrupt like Witkoff and probably Noem and others we don't know the names of. The fascists seize their headlines, directing attention at their violation of our laws and Constitution, meanwhile, the grifters strip the copper wire out of the White House.
