He stood up there, when he finally woke up, and he insulted your colleagues and friends like Kaitlin Collins and others.

Not only is Trump a blithering fuck-up for starting the war, he’s a blithering fuck-up for negotiating a ceasefire that wasn’t a ceasefire, and he’s a blithering fuck-up as the commander in chief in charge of the war. luciantruscott.substack.com/p/delisted-t...

Delisted: Trump and Hegseth change the rules to reduce the number of soldiers killed in action.

Do you remember back in the very early days of COVID in 2020 when Trump wouldn’t let a cruise ship dock in Oakland, California? There were people with the virus on board the ship, and COVID statistics...

Ain’t this a hoot? Iran’s leaders are good at waiting, because they know what waiting gets them: yet another fuckup from the Flailing Blunderbuss of Errors and Terrors in the White House. luciantruscott.substack.com/p/hes-a-bomb...

He’s a bombin’ negotiatin’ thievin' lyin’ fool!

The Pentagon is fond of playing wargames where they try to come up with scenarios estimating what the enemy might do so they’ll be ready in case it happens. You and me, we’re not in charge of thousand...

Am I hallucinating? Are Republicans doing the same shit they did in Iraq with Iran? Borrowing money for a useless war as they turn it into a quagmire at the same time they pass tax cuts for the wealthy on the backs of the middle class and the poor? luciantruscott.substack.com/p/quagmire-q...

Quagmire, quagmire, here we come!

What is it about scum-sucking quagmires started by idiot presidents and $70-plus billion supplementals passed by supine Congresses? The House today passed $73 billion in additional money for Trump’s i...

Think of our national humiliation as the gift that keeps on giving, as a motive like no other to come together and cut out the cancer that is making us sick to our stomachs as Americans. luciantruscott.substack.com/p/there-is-s...

There is something to be said for humiliation

Trump’s appearance on the medal podium at the World Cup was a humiliation for all the citizens of the United States, leaving aside the 30 percent whose worship of him has no bottom.

The Persian Gulf is not a playground, and war is not a spat. War is serious business. We do not have serious people in charge of the war we are waging against Iran. We have people presenting cage fights on the White House lawn. luciantruscott.substack.com/p/trump-is-p...

Bamboo ballot night at the White House: I watched Trump’s regurgitation so you don’t have to

If Trump thinks turning loose ICE on election day to prevent imaginary voting by foreigners will help Republicans, he’ll do it. If citizen voters are killed in or near the polls, he will blame it on Antifa and claim any evidence that emerges is AI. luciantruscott.substack.com/p/trumps-mur...

Pray for the power of Trump’s ego. It’s driving him to lose his war with Iran, and they will ensure the tit-for-tat war goes on long enough to cost him the midterm elections.
