• All MAGA knows about is the war against woke and migrants while they don’t know that Biden is striking real enemies with missiles… by Hal Brown, MSW

      Whether our military response to the drone attack which killed three American soldiers will make a difference remains to be seen, but it contradicts any MAGA narrative that Biden is some kind weak sister cowering in the corner while a macho-man Trump would be leading the charge standing heroically on a tank reading to take…

    • Lara Trump singing Tom Petty’s “I Won’t Back Down” isn’t all that bad, By Hal Brown, MSW

        I listened to both Lara Trump and Tom Petty singing his song and wrote about my conclusion that she isn’t all that bad. There are lots of reasons to loathe Lara but I don’t think her singing is one of them.

          Trump has a legion of female fans who seem to think he’s either the second coming in Jesus or Elvis, or perhaps both. I doubt they will swing the election his way if he ends up running against President Biden.

        • Nikki Haley picked up where Chris Christie left off in her attacks on Trump, say’s he’s toxic, chaotic, self-absorbed and lacking moral clarity. By Hal Brown, MSW

            The woman from Bamberg, South Carolina has not only picked up in attacking Trump from where Chris Christie left off but outdone the Newark, New Jersey brawler who called Trump a  “lonely, self-serving, self-consumed mirror hog” among other things. If Haley is a southern belle ringing a warning attention grabbing bell it’s an eardrum shattering…

          • John Kerry got Swiftboated. Could Trump’s campaign be sunk by his own Swiftboating attempt? By Hal Brown, MSW

              Swiftboats like the one John Kerry commanded had deadly twin 50cal. machine guns fore and a motar aft. Taylor and Kelce not armed with actual weapons, unless you count being a great singer and song writer, and hands that can grab a football out of thin air, but they are quite cabable of helping to…

                The GOP is desperate to make immigration their top campaign issue but Biden has thrown a monkey wrench into their plan.

                  Trump is again being called a short fingered vulgarian. You can help this make it tredn on X (Twitter) and get under trump’s skin.

                • Robert Reich’s three questions about Trump’s cognitive condition must be answered. By Hal Brown, MSW

                    In his Newsweek opinion piece, Stop Talking About Biden’s Mental Acuity. Start Talking About Trump’s Signs of Dementia, Robert Reich asked three questions about Trump. What if Trump… … really thinks he’s being persecuted? What if he has a persecution complex? What if he believes his paranoid fantasies? Reich presents a dirty laundry list of things Trump…

                        I live in a very liberal continuing care retirement communty where I frequently engage in political discussions with my friends. Since they know I was a psychotherapist and am a political junky they often ask me for my “expert” opinion on why so many people not only support, but worship Trump no matter how egregiously…
