donnie Really Is An Idiot And Related Thoughts: This Could Get Good

Every few days donnie makes inane assertions, threats and accusations to and about Jay Powell.

donnie wants him out.

he wants somebody on the team to give him low interest rates.

So he can kite the national debt even more than he already has.

And then he got the jobs report last week and fired the head of the jobs report department.

he said she rigged the numbers to make him look bad.

She was a Biden appointee, you know.

And "her" numbers clearly showed that the economy is likely already sliding down the greasy slope to recession.

Or worse.

Most presidents would take advantage of that; they would go public and ask the Fed Chair to call special emergency session to re-consider his (Powell's) recent, and now obviously premature decision to keep rates where they are.

"Late breaking news calls for a hasty revisit of recent interest rate decisions" might be the opening sentence of a hastily called presidential press conference.

Instead, donnie shot the messenger.

That being the messenger who told the world that the US economy might be tanking. 

A lot of people in donnie's position just then would have seen an opportunity.

They would have used late breaking bad news for the economy as a club to get the Fed to do their bidding.

Instead, donnie shot the messenger.

Because I guess it made him feel good in the presence of bad news.

Not only is trump not a brilliant bidnessman, he's not even a competitive barroom tactician.

Might be brain rot, though, instead of incompetence.

Let's hope so.

That's why we have the Twenty Fifth Amendment.

'Course then we get Ol' J.D.

Then Ol' Mike Johnson.

Once the dominoes start, they just keep fallin'.

I guess Ol' Marco is going to have to kill Ol' Chuck Grassley.
