It was abhorent. It revealed character more efficiently than all his years of ubiquity on TV -- an ugly character, a deceptive character, a vassal of the Russian, a betrayer of democracy.
J.D. Vance, playing Grover Dill to Trump's Scut Farkus, got to throw the first punch -- why haven't you thanked Trump enough? -- and played like a schoolyard brat for the approval of his muscle-man.
Apparently, those two felt powerful in the moment. POW-er-FUL. Playing for the bleachers. Strong men doing decisive things, and doing it as loudly and as publicly as possible, to send a message: "Russia, Be Pleased."
The darkest day so far in the 2nd month of the 2nd term of Donald Trump.

Monty Python used to call this "Biggus Dickus."
Those skits referred to disarray in the falling Roman Empire.
Tuesday (March 4) tariffs on Mexico and Canada go into effect,
and I already see some price movement (Inflation) in anticipation.
With so many Americans carrying various debts already and wages
mostly stuck (in relation to productivity) the Trump Administration may hit a speed bump and bite off their tongues. The Tech they're counting on is
mostly outdated hype and produces no vital commodities. No one can subsist
on abstractions and fictive wealth. I have been forced to delay two projects
sub-contractors were counting on. Yes, there is anger at my decision, but later this anger will rightly shift to Trump. I think it is prudent to avoid debt at a time when future work is uncertain. Mexico and Canada are the USA's biggest trading partners. China, Japan and England trail behind. I don't see England sending us much plywood or tomatoes (they import these things). So with tariffs the USA puts itself in Depression, just like Europe (especially Germany).
