I usually avoid video with this kind of title. It took me a while to get around to watching this one.

Like anything else Trump related it is plausible.

If nothing else today, I learned there are radical chartered accountants.

As mentioned at least once a month about Trump, the Dunning-Kruger effect

Psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger wrote about it in their study, "Unskilled and Unaware of It." It demonstrates that ignorance can lead to inflated confidence, while expertise often brings humility.

Never underestimate the damage caused by Trump's incompetence because he'll never self-reflect and he's admit he's incompetent.

His elderly years don't help either.

The NY Times - Judge Denies Trump’s Bid to Throw Out Conviction Over Immunity Ruling

breaking

A judge [Justice Juan M. Merchan] on Monday rejected Donald J. Trump’s argument that a recent Supreme Court ruling had nullified his criminal case in New York, upholding the former and future president’s felony conviction for falsifying records to cover up a sex scandal.

The judge’s ruling preserves, at least for now, the stain of Mr. Trump’s criminal conviction. And if the decision withstands an appeal, Mr. Trump could become the first felon to serve as president. ...

Justice Merchan will not have the final say on the immunity issue, and Mr. Trump can now appeal his ruling.

... and Trump will of course appeal, because he is above the law. 😏

Also - sorry I forgot to post this the other day (it's been a busy week); I saw this on The Bulwark and thought it described exactly what happens with Trump and the Republican Party these days, and a portend of what's most likely to happen in his next term: https://www.thebulwark.com/p/weakness-is-a-provocation

A Democratic senator should ask every single Trump appointee, “Could Donald Trump run for president or vice president in 2028? Just a simple yes or no answer, please. Is it possible?”

What percentage of prospective Trump employees do you think would be willing to say—on the record, in black and white—that Trump absolutely cannot, under any circumstances, run in 2028?

I think the answer is somewhere in the range of 0.00 percent.

We have seen this dynamic over and over and over.

Trump suggests something outrageous. Republicans at first play coy. Then they say it probably won’t happen. Then they say we have to let “the process” play out. And eventually Republicans arrive at the point where they insist that this once-outrageous thing that they didn’t even want to comment on obviously must happen.

It's going to be quite a bumpy ride when the orange buffoon returns to office next year.

Don't worry about it. Donald will ignore the maximum 2 terms in office anyway - one way or another.

I hope you're wrong, but I have a feeling that Republicans are so fixated on bending over to do whatever the hell he wants now, he may get another term yet.

Then again, he will be 82 at the end of it and his health is pretty crap, so we're both assuming he lives long enough to see out the end of his next term.

Also...so many broken campaign promises:

So much for: "oh, I'll end it all in 24 hours":

I'm sure Trump supporters will be supportive and happy when prices rapidly rise due to tariffs.

I'm sure that just because United States is the world's largest importer, accounting for over 13.1% of global imports.

Obviously the US can instantly recreate all these industries which have ceased to exist in the US

Textile and Apparel Manufacturing
Domestic Steel Manufacturing
Shipbuilding
Furniture Manufacturing
Print Publishing
Logging
Paper Mills
Electronics Manufacturing
Rubber Tire Manufacturing

Plus most the US oil refining, because the US has the wrong kind of refineries, and relies very heavily on exporting unprocessed oil, and importing the finished fuels.

It only takes 7 to 10 years to build a new oil refinery. The last major refinery built from scratch was 47 years ago.
