"People just like him" is precisely why. He's a narcissist and, what we see as bad in people, he sees the mirror image of his "perfect self". They all have the same motivation - grift - so they'll all be on the same page.

It's interesting that there's already dissent in the ranks. One thing these crooks love is themselves. We need to play them at their own game and set them against each other. Divide and conquer.

P. S. I'm so glad you are here on Substack now, Brian. As I age closer to 80, my ability to follow podcasts diminishes. Short videos with longer written words are perfect for me. Thank you.

I'm probably naive, but I think Trump and the worst of his cabinet will self-immolate before they echieve a fraction of their plans.

Does Patel suffer from Graves' disease or something else? His eyes are not right.

He looks cross-eyed to me, as if he can't see beyond his big, crooked nose.

At first I thought he was too, like a niece of mine, but if you watch a video interview with him, you'll see that's not it. I asked my wife, a physician, and she immediately suggested hyperthyroidism.

In that case, he will have to have his thyroid scorched and then take synthroid - or something similar - for the rest of his life. This happened to a friend of mine, but her eyes protruded more than his, and she didn't look cross-eyed. Personally, his physical health does not concern me in the least. His mental health is his main presenting problem, and that could have dire consequences for us all.

Well, this condition has a lot of behavioral consequences consistent with his actual conduct.

His "Musk-infused" "cabinet of horrors". Well put!

Do you think he knows he is picking the worst possible people? Is being boot-lickers their only qualification? Has he picked them on Putin’s instructions to break America? Has he picked them as smokescreens that he is happy to give up as distractions from the really dangerous ones? Steve Bannon, puppet master. Elon Musk puppet master? I keep feeling like I am inside a made for TV movie. A really cheesey one.

One more horrible in the parade. Hard to know who to label as the worst one of a rotten to the core bunch.
