Not just the insults, the threats but the on again/off again tariffs despite a trade agreement in place.

WARREN: Look, I asked him a fact. We need a Fed Chair who can assert reality. Kevin Warsh can't do it. Would you like to give it a shot? Who won the 2020 election?
EISEN: No, no, I'm not getting into a political question.
WARREN: You're a tool.
It was all about money laundering from the beginning, the Inauguration Ball contributions, the ABC settlement, the Melania movie rights, the crypto deposits, the pardons for bribes. If you want to play, pay up. If you want protection, pay up. Everyone else, you've been warned.
The candidate doth protest too much, methinks.
Things haven't been the same since Apollo Creed paraded into the ring surrounded by his partying entourage back in Rocky I. Even Rocky was impressed. Now everybody gotta try to entertain like Apollo and fight like Rocky. And we'll all be friends afterwards.
Well, I got two words: Jared Kushner. Ultimately failed his security vetting in 2018, so Trump just gave it to him. And everyone here shrugs. Now he travels the world on behalf of Big Daddy (and himself). Not sure if this UK scandal is commendable principle or pedestrian nonsense.
And if they can't get that deal, they'll stamp their feet, and threaten the apocalypse, and then just lie about it and hope nobody notices that the ships have stopped moving. Again.
"250 years of the Bible in America." But not in the Constitution.
Talk amongst yourselves.
Trump laundered the lifting of oil sanctions on Russia by lifting them as well on Iran - "Hey, we need the oil, gotta get the oil out there. I'm even letting the Iranians sell it!" Now that he got away with it, they're off, and pretty much no one said "boo!", they'll never be reimposed.
Thought it would have been cool if they had arranged some pre-match ritual, maybe as simple as reaching across the net, tapping their racquets and nodding, acknowledging their bond and ...well, everything.
The presumption of irregularity.
What the hell is so hard about letting us send in pdf tax forms instead of having to stuff them in an envelope and then send the paper. This is embarrassing and pathetic and a disgrace.
Everyone can be a NIMBY, especially if it threatens the value of their real estate, but also if it portends the slightest change to an enjoyed lifestyle. The only difference is, if it will inconvenience the likes of Bernie Sanders or Jeremy Corbyn, they'll have more elaborate rationalizations.
Eh, Mikey you should turn that around a bit.
"If you wade into religious waters - seeking divine protection for your bombing and murder - you should expect some push back from religious leaders who'll tell you what's what." It's not the Pope tweeting furiously at 2 AM every night, Mikey.
Pen plotter! A colleague bought an HP plotter ~1980. It used beautiful long glossy paper that I kept long after. I would watch the pen moving across making graphs - gorgeous. I made some graphs for him that helped him get the state legislature to repeal the ripoff "Rule of 78's". Ah, memories...
And you won't let anyone else try to use it.
"I am pleased to nominate a highly qualified individual par excellence, Bradford 'The Shredder' Wilson for head of the National Archives. He's a great guy and will do an even greater job, I guarantee you."
"Oh, forgot Greenland, that freezing hell hole."
The "Peace and Freedom" candidate for President.
"I was President Trump's emissary for peace, tireless in the pursuit, from Caracas to Kiev to Islamabad. I was also the strongest advocate for freedom, especially in the EU with its far-left censorship. I am YOUR candidate for Peace and Freedom!"
Nice grift he's got going there.
1) Build monuments to yourself - no one can/will stop you.
2) Get businesses to pay for it.
3) Reward them (and more) with tax cuts and preferential decisions/contracts by fed agencies
4) A piece of the action for yourself.
5) And donations next election.
"Funding the terrorists with billions of dollars!"
And:
6. Say you're sorry.
Take the win. If you were around back then you might be thinking “didn’t we do this 60 years ago?”. With like 64K technology? But everyone feels good and hopefully it’s a new beginning. Next time in London.
I thought surely that was an AI generated photo upon being asked for a dystopian city surrounded by a superhighway. But it's not. Looks much better in daylight.
A golden extortion opportunity. Who can say that wasn't the original idea? I need a piece of those tolls. I need a piece of that oil. Who's to say the Iranians aren't stringing him along. Hey, it cost us a lot of money too, but we did it for the world, so where's *our* reparations?
The People's Mayor, he said. And he meant it. And they see it.
VP Bringin'-da-Lies campaigns with Obgan. How charming.
Candy, by Iggy Pop (the duet with Kate Pierson). It was playing on the store speakers. When I got home I Googled "Candy I can't let you go" and it came up. This was maybe 12 years ago.
"I'm Secretary Marco Rubio, and these are my bloody hands. Happy Easter."
