Welcome to Stupid America!

Prediction: Pope Francis will not survive the year; a new pope who will forsake Christ is crowned. Instead, this successor to the Prince of Peace will hold the reigns of the Four Horsemen, ushering in ages of the past.

The fact that Pope Francis is going to die this year requires no great insight. It’s obvious. What may be least apparent is that the new Pope will take the Church backward. Dare I say backward in the direction of the rest of the world, which is being dragged to a yesteryear where hate and bigotry reign supreme and the super-rich steal from the rest of us. Now, the Catholic Church will want to get into the game lest they be left behind, poorer and less relevant. To be sure, religion in this day and age — if ever — is not the beacon of righteousness by which humans aspire to do good and be better. No, it is the mirror of humanity’s collective flaws magnified and beautified to the rest of the world, lending peoples’ failings a veneer of acceptance and morality as they abhor with abandon. Where the people are, this new Pope will follow.

According to Spectrum News, “New York Democrats hit the brakes on a controversial bill allowing the governor to delay congressional special elections until Election Day. The bill was introduced Friday to fierce Republican opposition, which prompted a letter to Attorney General Pam Bondi asking her to open an investigation into the move. Multiple sources say the directive came straight from Gov. Kathy Hochul, who depending on whom you ask, is either looking for leverage in her negotiations with President Donald Trump as he targets congestion pricing, or simply felt the optics of the bill were bad. The governor’s office did not respond to a request for comment.” Of course, they did!

Eh, it never f***ing fails: Democrats see their own shadow and flee in terror! I hate dumbass Democrats — hate them — sometimes more than RepubliKKKlans. Ya know, when I first heard of New York Democrats’ plan to pass legislation that would postpone a special election until November, thereby delaying RepubliKKKlans in the House from adding to their already slim majority, I thought to myself: Wow, now that is a baller move! That is the political hardball they should be playing all the time! Good on dumbass Democrats for finally dishing out to RepubliKKKlans the bitter medicine they deserve. Good thing I only thought it and did not write about it, for in the usual blink of an eye, dumbass Democrats backed down because maybe they “felt the optics of the bill were bad.” This is precisely why RepubliKKKlans win, and dumbass Democrats lose more often than not. F*** Democrats! I’m so f***ing sick of their fecklessness. Do you seriously think RepubliKKKlans would care about the “optics” of a bill that advantages them and hurts Democrats? No! They always plow through — always! But not dumbass Democrats! Nope! They back down with the smallest of pushback or criticism!

And to think pausing this legislation can be used as a negotiating chip with Dictator Don to protect congestion pricing only evinces that dumbass Democrats still — to this f***ing day — do not understand The Don! You can’t make any deals with him. He’ll stab dumbass Democrats in the back every chance he gets, and, apparently, Democrats are more than willing to hand him the knife. Un-f***ing-believe. Whatever! I expected nothing less. I don’t know how many times I must repeat myself before people finally believe me: The dumbass Democratic Party needs to dissolve completely and reinvent itself into a political faction that actually understands how to politic! Welcome to stupid America! The end is here, and dumbass Democrats, at this point, are helping to write America’s final chapter.

According to NPR, “Marko Elez, a 25-year-old software engineer, was working inside the Treasury Department to cut costs and root out fraud, as part of Musk’s DOGE effort. Elez, who formerly worked at Musk companies X and SpaceX, was one of two temporary appointees at Treasury connected to DOGE who have been granted access to a highly sensitive Treasury system that processes trillions of dollars in payments every year. ‘You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity,’ the [Elez Twitter] account wrote in September. ‘Normalize Indian hate,’ a separate post from that month read. In July of last year, the account posted: ‘Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool.’ In other posts, from December, the account pushed for repealing the Civil Rights Act and shared: ‘I just want a eugenic immigration policy, is that too much to ask.’”

This is low-hanging fruit for when the killing starts, and it will sooner rather than later. Mark my words. If one were to believe that the only way out of this not-so-slow-motion demise of America’s democracy and the only way to save our way of life is to take the fight to the enemy of the people, then one must not hesitate to eliminate these MAGA morons, RepubliKKKlans, evil evangelicals, and QAnon kooks. If one wanted to send a message, then this would be a good target to communicate to the far right that Americans are not going to tolerate this hostile takeover of America. One would need to start with easy, soft targets; people like Elez should not feel safe colluding with Dictator Don and Elonna Musk. Gather your list of names, my fellow freedom fighters. Soon, all of you will become the true heirs to the Sons of Liberty, who fought against the tyranny of an autocrat. Be prepared to take up arms! The moment approaches! This is the resistance for which we’ve been waiting.

According to ABC News, “Protesters gathered nationwide Wednesday as part of a movement opposing the Trump administration’s policies and Project 2025, the controversial conservative presidential wish list. The protests, which took place largely in state capitals, were organized by an online movement dubbed 50501 — meaning 50 protests, 50 states, one day.”

Christ! What the f*** is it with dumbass Democrats always getting things half right? Mass protests on a Wednesday? I don’t know about you, but I assume that most people, like myself, actually have a day job that keeps me tied up Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 6 PM, give or take. If you really want to show strength in numbers, then don’t call for protests during the f***ing week unless you plan on conducting a general strike. To adequately demonstrate the power of the people, demands that protests happen on the weekend. You can’t gather massive numbers during business hours. As usual, dumbass Democrats get everything half right. It’s half-planned out. Half the energy. A quarter of the impact. It never f***ing fails. In fact, it would appear that the protests were a flop, underwhelming by any measure. F***! Why can’t dumbass Democrats get even the simplest tasks right? Whatever! We’re f***ed. This iteration of the Democratic Party is not the version we need to fight against Dictator Don. When and until dumbass Democrats understand this, then we will never win enough elections with the margins required to save our democracy. Welcome to stupid America. Dare I say, it’s too late!

According to Axios, “President Trump declared during a press conference alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday that ‘the U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip’ and ‘own it.’ … [Two] million Palestinians live in Gaza, which was largely destroyed by Israel in its war with Hamas militants. Trump has contended those Palestinians should be moved out and the U.S. should take control in order to rebuild — a startling proposal with no legal backing, but which Trump presented as a done deal. … He has frequently remarked on what valuable ‘real estate’ Gaza could be, and suggested at the press conference that it could one day be ‘the Riviera of the Middle East.’”

Congratulations, you f***ing Palestinian Americans, Palestinian sympathizers, and “uncommitted” voters who could not bring yourselves to vote for Harris, abstained from voting, or incomprehensibly voted for Dictator Don. This is all on you, and this is everything you deserve! And I’m happy for it. I laugh in your faces because you are that f***ing G.D. stupid! Honestly, given the utter damage you’ve done with your vote (or lack thereof) to America’s democracy, you should self-deport. Get the f*** out of America! Go join your clan in the Middle East. Find your displaced relatives wandering the Gaza Strip and immigrate with them to Egypt, Jordan, or elsewhere. Good luck! Buh-bye!

On the political side, take Dictator Don seriously on this matter. I hear the general reflexive commentary from the MSM that ranges from befuddlement to astonishment to dismissiveness of this new shiny object as if it is just The Don! saying sh*t to say sh*t. In other words, don’t believe him. He doesn’t mean it. To that, I say, nonsense. Believe him if for no other reason than to understand what his thinking is. Also, remember that Dictator Don has something in his second term that he lacked in his first: Power. Not only power but power coupled with impunity and a staff that will effectuate his wish list, which grows by the day. Mark my words on this. If he wants to send troops to occupy the Gaza Strip, then that is precisely what his government will do. Again, you should recognize a theme here in all his — dare I say — musings: He wants to be the 21st-century president to expand America’s borders, and he’s going to do it! Mark my words! He’s literally scoping out real estate in Greenland, Canada, Panama, and now Palestine! Get ready. Dictator Don is going to get us into a war, which directly contradicts his campaign pledge to keep America out of foreign wars and entanglements. And guess what? No one f***ing cares, especially his MAGA moron base, who will support Dear Leader no matter what he does. Oh, well. Welcome to stupid America. The end is here!

Dictator Don blinked on the trade war with Canada and Mexico. He’s making my predictive powers look bad, and I’m not happy about it! Moreover, the markets were right — I should have known. Just after I had excoriated the markets for failing to heed the rantings of a mad Orange Julius, it turns out they were right after all. It seems the markets took a wait-and-see approach before reacting. They waited and waited. The markets slid a bit — a 500-point dip on the Dow is relatively insignificant — but it was not a full-on sell-off as I was expecting. And then the markets were right: Dictator Don backed off implementing his tariffs for 30 days. Market: 1. Me: 0.

But I am still perplexed. I firmly believe that The Don! is not using tariffs primarily to negotiate. (And let’s be clear about something: What Dictator Don “won” from Canada and Mexico were not major concessions at all.) Was this him merely creating a paper tiger only to bat it away and claim victory before his fellow MAGA moron base? I guess. I miscalculated his usual showman tactic. But I am convinced, nonetheless, there is something deeper going on; I think these tariffs will eventually go into effect. He may try to extract more from our neighboring countries in the meantime, but at some point, he’ll pull the trigger on tariffs in earnest to accomplish his ultimate goal: Subsume Canada and Mexico under U.S. control. I think he’s willing to cripple economies, knowing that the U.S. can withstand more economic pain than Mexico and Canada.

As for his trade war against China, I say, eh! Go to war with China all he wants; it is a rare instance of me not minding his China policy. I think American companies should have avoided trading with China from the beginning — maybe food stuffs but certainly not moving most of our manufacturing base to China. If you want to talk about one of the worst political moves in the last 50 years, it would be Nixon going to China.

But I digress. While The Don! may be playing the same game, I think his definition of winning is much different than his first term. He wants to be the first president to expand the United States of America since World War II, so when he talks about acquiring Greenland, Canada, and the Panama Canal, he’s not kidding. Welcome to stupid America.

According to CNBC, “Stock futures tumbled Sunday night to kick off a new trading month as investors weighed new U.S. tariffs on goods from key trade partners and their potential impact on the economy and corporate profits. Futures tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average slid 611 points, or 1.4%. S&P 500 futures dropped 1.9%, while Nasdaq-100 futures lost 2.4%. President Donald Trump on Saturday slapped a 25% tariff on goods from Mexico and Canada. He also placed a 10% levy on imports from China. The U.S. does about $1.6 trillion in business with the three countries. ‘Markets may now need to take the rest of Trump’s tariff agenda literally rather than just seriously … If this new level of seriousness gets priced in suddenly, Monday could be a rough day for markets,’ Wolfe Research head of U.S. policy and politics Tobin Marcus said in a note.”

So much for “experts”! Now the markets realize they should have been taking Dictator Don literally and seriously!?!? Now they finally get it — maybe? We’ll see when the markets open just how much market “analysts” apprehend, but my guess — which is usually right — is that traders will fail to fully price in the impact of the Dictator Don trade war. I’m sure there are plenty of idiot “experts” who still believe this tariff mess will work itself out or be resolved quickly. Not! I can’t with this sh*t-for-brains country of f***ing morons, who are so willfully stupid that they find themselves surprised and bewildered that The Don! is doing everything he said we would do during the presidential campaign. How f***ing dumb can you be? Well, apparently, there is always room to prove one can sink lower on the IQ scale. Welcome to trump stupid America!

From USA Today, “President Donald Trump on Saturday followed through with his threat to impose tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China, pushing the world’s largest economy into a trade war with two neighbors and a superpower. Mexico and Canada, the top two U.S. trading partners, immediately vowed retaliatory tariffs, while China said it would challenge Trump’s move at the World Trade Organization and take other ‘countermeasures.’ … With a stroke of a presidential pen, Trump imposed 25% tariffs on Mexican and most Canadian imports and 10% on goods from China, starting on Tuesday. … ‘I’ve instructed my economy minister to implement the plan B we’ve been working on, which includes tariff and non-tariff measures in defense of Mexico’s interests,’ Sheinbaum posted on social media but didn’t identify which products would be targeted. … Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Canada would respond with 25% tariffs against $155 billion of U.S. goods, according to Reuters, including alcohol, lumber and appliances, beginning with $30 billion taking effect Tuesday and $125 billion some three weeks later.”

Congratu-f***ing-lations, f***tards of America! You’ve just shot yourselves in the f***ing face. And no one cares! I have no doubt that this sh*t-for-brains country, after four years of blaming Biden for inflation beyond his control, Americans will give Dictator Don a pass for singlehandedly causing inflation by levying a 25 percent tax on 40 percent of America’s imported goods. I have no f***ing doubt The Don! will be blameless because it never f***ing fails: RepubliKKKlans ruin the economy, and then voters elect Democrats to fix RepubliKKKlans’ economic mess only to have the same voters re-install RepubliKKKlans to f*** things up again and worse. Oh, you stupid, stupid people of the highest f***ing order. You deserve this. You really f***ing do. Every bit of it. Every bit of pain, misery, and discontent. I wish nothing but the worst for you MAGA morons, RepubliKKKlans, evil evangelicals, and QAnon kooks. I pray for the day Dictator Don’s policies leave you people poorer and, God willing, dead! Welcome to stupid America.

While I will not blame the tragic incident of a medevac plane crashing in Philadelphia on Dictator Don, if God is sending a signal in the opening weeks of his second term, then it is unmistakable that God Almighty is telling American f***tards that this country is about to crash and burn. God could not have picked a more perfect metaphor than two plane crashes on The Don’s! watch in three days. Get ready, f***tards. Not only have I been warning about the death and destruction Dictator Don will bring to America, but it now seems God is sending his own omens. Welcome to stupid America! The end is here, you f***ing morons. Just remember that you idiots did this to yourself. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, the White House confirmed this afternoon that tariffs on the U.S.’s largest trading partners would begin tomorrow; and how does the stock market react to this — yet one more — reiteration that Dictator Don is not backing down from trying to tank the entire U.S. economy? With utter insouciance. Un-f***ing-believable. No wonder this guy got re-elected; you simply cannot convince morons of America just how seriously dangerous The Don! is to this country, no matter what he says or does, no matter what Americans have witnessed and experienced in the first two weeks of his second term. And if the U.S. stock market — the grandest of all market efficiency theory oracles — can’t seem to see Dictator Don for what he truly is, then America is lost. (Shocking!)

Slowly but surely and one by one, he has been dutifully fulfilling his campaign promises, and one of them was to slap the hell out of Canada and Mexico (and China to a lesser extent — go figure) with massive tariffs if they failed to fall in line behind Dear Leader. Well, they are defying him, and the stock market is inexplicably unconcerned by this. Oh, how the “titans” and “gurus” of Wall Street will be mightily embarrassed for daring to believe Dictator Don really has any concern or forethought when it comes to protecting America’s economy or the average consumer. He does not. I’m not sure at what point “experts” of the market will ever be convinced that all The Don! wants to do is wreck things and steal money — American’s money. Oh, well. This is what morons of America voted for, and they are going to get it in spades. Welcome to trump stupid America!
