  1. “Brewster’s Millions: Department of War edition”

    Since everyone who disagrees with Trump is now a terrorist (domestic, narco, Muslim, gender, commie Nazi), I suppose a dramatic increase in war funding makes sense.

    Also,”There’s little use in trying to reconcile Trump’s campaign rhetoric.” – fixed that for you.

    1. If he has his way eventually (soon?) the Democratic Party will be on that ‘terrorist’ list too.
      Btw is trump media going to announce a defense contractor subsidiary/JV/merger soon?

      1. Powered by clean nuclear fusion.

        I had to laugh at the announcement that DJT was merging with a fusion energy company. I would laugh at the catastrophic failure ahead, but in this case, it’s more of a laughing-rather-than-crying situation, because I know full well that company is going to promptly receive massive government grants for “research.”

  2. This is getting scarier by the minute. That dramatic increase in military spending will buy a lot of new murderous toys. But it will also pay for a lot of new boots. T has already told the top military brass that they should consider using US cities as training grounds, and that we need to “fight the enemy within”. Who’s that? Anyone who opposes him.
    All those new boots will be coming to a city and voting booth near you.

  3. H-Man, this party will come to an end when the rest of the world stops buying our bonds which could explain why he is grabbing the assets of other countries to fund his vision of the new world.

    1. In a midterm year where the king is concerned about impeachment, just get the Fed to buy bonds and stock ETFs too…well for that matter, put some trump coins into central bank reserve too…

  4. A guy who went bankrupt every chance he could and now ‘we the people’ have decided he should head up the huge business that is America. Doesn’t say much for our collective intelligence.

    Kudos to H for the perfect graphic to this story. He transformed Trump into the perfect archetype Russian general – except for the tiny hands of course.

  5. Early in the campaign people noted that the scant guardrails that existed in his first term would be gone for a second term. We’re clearly seeing the effect of that right now.
    H — you had a strong contention that Michelle Obama would have defeated Trump on election day. Still feel that way?
