Americans Are (Belatedly) Paying Attention to Trump
71%
A new Pew Research survey finds about seven-in-ten adults say they have been following news about the actions and initiatives of President Trump’s administration very (31%) or fairly (40%) closely. The major reasons cited: 62% said Trump news is “relevant to my life,” 43% said “it’s hard to avoid,” 36% said “I like what the administration is doing,” and 25% said “it’s entertaining or interesting.”
Trump’s Tariffs Tank Us
As if he’s some small-town Mayberry sheriff,
Like speeding tickets, Trump is doling out tariffs.
We know where this all ends —
With the U.S. having no friends
And a lot of new enemies with no incentive to spare us.
Mixed Signals on Signal
We knew Trump’s Cabinet of Deplorables was abysmal,
But the dumbness of their hubris is truly dismal.
The plan was to bomb Yemen’s Houthis,
So they grabbed an armload of emojis
And got together for a text fest on Signal.
