Grab ‘Em By The Surplus
"I think it is mainly down to Trump. The threat is becoming more real."
So said an economist quoted
The title—oh, the title. It brings flashbacks of the video where he explained how you can “grab ’em by the surplus.” Epic!
Great article, no question there will be an attempt to suspend term limits. Bergdorf Goodman comment, like shooting fish in a barrel.
Suspend term limits? Probably not. Project 2025 is an idea Vance and successors will carry on and not dependent on any one mortal. Trump’s nearing 80 and the dementia is getting there even faster,. Putin has no real ideology, and when he croaks, anything can happen. As for Xi, hard to tell what that ideology is, or what will succeed him. Maybe there’s some continuity possible, but I doubt it.
Congress’s most famous patron of the arts and greatest wit, Lauren Boebert, already tweeted about getting prepared for Trump’s third term. The thing is, I can’t actually tell if she means 2028-2032, or if she’s referring to his incoming second term as the “third term” because he “won” in 2020.
Nitwit. I meant to say nitwit.
