I now have TDS: Trump Detachment Syndrome
It has me down. Trump now admits that he issued a crude threat to Bibi Netanyahu, beset on every border by relentless jihadist terrorism.

"You're fucking crazy": Trump fumes at Netanyahu in his call on Lebanon. "You'd be in prison if it weren't for me. I'm saving your ass."
I would even be upset if he spoke that way to Macron or Starmer.

Sorry, I take that back.
So, I browsed books to find something that might lift my mood. What do you know? There are many books about and by Dr. Jill Biden. My fave is: The Things That Matter In Life: The Collected Words of Dr. Jill Biden as Second Lady of the United States. by Progressive Press.

None about health or medicine.
So, I search for recipes on MSN and find Meryl Streep’s favorite breakfast and what was Robert Redford’s one-pot dinner. Good to know. I have to try that. Food is good for mood.

Speaking of recipes: On spy series on TV, generally there is agreement…. America bad…. environment cooking and justice fried.
Along the way I stumble upon Kate Middleton, who should drop the last name, and pictures of barely clad Demi Moore and Gwyneth Paltrow, a compilation of a lot of flesh and no brains

But there is a lot of real Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Senator Blumenthal has actively slammed Trump's military decisions and use of unauthorized military force in the Middle East. He would know. During his Senate campaign in 2010, he falsely claimed he served in Vietnam. He later clarified that he served in the Marine Corps Reserves stateside. He sort of apologized and got elected anyway.
Rachel Maddow laughs at ‘Humiliated’ Trump’s List of Failures”…maybe she should look at her own bias and misinformation. Remember her lies about Trump’s so-called Russia ties?
When Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s report was released, there was no evidence other than the fact that Maddow promoted a false narrative. What’s that saying about “glass houses and stones?”
AOC and her cohorts in the “squad” suffered some losses, so it’s not a battalion or a platoon, but her lies travel until they are debunked, like her recent fibs that millionaires only pay 7 to 8% in taxes.
Did she wear her designer duds with “tax the rich” printed on the back? Did it not raise hackles like Melania’s jacket, which said “I really don’t care, do you? “
Thinking of elections? The new/old kids on the block are Buttigieg followed by California Governor Gavin Newsom. Wow, sounds like a team!!!! All Buttigieg has going for him is he’s gay, so I’m sure the Ayatollah would love negotiating with him.
He has a book too, titled TRUST. It’s a New York Times best seller. In TRUST, Pete Buttigieg demonstrates how trust will be essential in order to face the unique challenges of the decades ahead. How original!
In the Bronx we used to say: He couldn’t run for dog catcher. It turns out that in a town in Vermont, people elect their dog catcher. Who knew? Do Baristas also run for office?
So, who else is tossing their hat into the wide-open 2028 Democratic presidential field?
Mark Kelly: Remember a video reminding service members they do not have to obey illegal orders?
Kamala Harris: She’s on a book tour in New York City hosted by the Rev. Al Sharpton. I was not invited.
Rahm Emanuel: The former Chicago mayor. Never mind.
We have some time. So, for the moment, I’ll put up with a foul mouth, narcissism, and confusing foreign policy and pray for MAGA all-stars.
And J.D. Vance? Not really enthusiastic about him.
And leave the name Haley out. Been there; did not do it.
I’ll read a trashy book. I have belonged to fiction and history book clubs. Now I want to start a trash book club. Plenty to choose from among the Booker Prizes and plenty of friends who don’t mind trash talk instead of politics.
