As is to be expected, Trump doesn't know jack shit about geography.
Everyone knows that The Gulf of America is that sea between red and blue, right and left, illiberal and liberal America. The one in which I and other radically moderate, hair-on-fire non-partisan freedom and democracy-loving Americans have been treading…
As is to be expected, Trump doesn't know jack shit about geography.
Everyone knows that The Gulf of America is that sea between red and blue, right and left, illiberal and liberal America. The one in which I and other radically moderate, hair-on-fire non-partisan freedom and democracy-loving Americans have been treading water in our non-tribal political homelessness for years.
All the while watching the opposing shorelines growing ever more distant.
Oh, come on. You know... The one that now makes the Gulf of Mexico look like a f**kin' mud puddle.
"Radically moderate." I kind of like it. I have always hated the term "moderate," given its connotation of weakness and/or indecisiveness. Though it makes me "politically homeless" especially now, for >50 years I have been a staunch independent with strong views on issues. But I evaluate them independently, not as a "package deal" to fit in any "tribe." I average "center-right" but if anything, that makes me even more strongly opposed to the rabid authoritarianism of the MAGA cult than the "radical left" is.
Right there with you, OC11. I'm not sure exactly what my "average" is these days, the Overton Window having moved so wildly. And considering how the Right has coopted issues like free speech, meritocracy and colorblindness from the Left, who the hell knows what issue belongs to what tribe in may cases.
I'm pretty sick of it all. Which is why I'm now more than ever inclined to say a pox on both their houses.
Does Trump know that America includes North, Central, and South America? (Rhetorical question). He would have to rename it the Gulf of USA to accomplish what he is shooting for.

Trump knows nothing about anything.
Well, when he's done with scarfing up Greenland, he might just turn his sights south.
Oops, you covered that!
