Trump's Bizarro World

Screenshot 2025-06-08 at 9.01.42 AMJune 10, 2025 (Vol. 19 No. 24) - Even if you were only a casual fan of Superman comics, you no doubt remember Bizarro Superman, who came from an alternative universe where everything was the exact opposite: Bad was good, the planet htrae was square while earth is round, and criminality is the norm. In short, welcome to Donald Trump's world. His Incontinence has turned this country upside down and inside out during the nearly five months he and his Cabinet of Clowns has infested the White House. Take the upcoming military parade in Washington on June 14, a Soviet-style display allegedly to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, but suspiciously coinciding with Don Dementia's 79th birthday. At a time his administration is gutting education, health and public safety programs, this dumbass display of America's might is going to cost upwards of $45 million. So, we are gutting FEMA, the weather service, air traffic control, medical research and other silly stuff. At least some Republican contractors will benefit from the $16 million job they will get for repairing the Capital's streets damaged by tanks. But it doesn't stop there. President Bizarro takes his special form of terror coast-to-coast. Instead of trying to calm the people of Los Angeles who are upset over his Draconian immigration policies, President Bone Spur has chosen to pour gasoline on smoldering embers by sending in troops where they were neither wanted nor needed. At a time the Great Dealmaker has positioned himself as the only man who can broker peace between Ukraine and Russia, he makes Vladimir Putin's war of aggression that much easier by transferring much needed weapons away from Ukraine toward the Middle East. (It makes you wonder just how much Donski Trumpski is in debt to the Russians.) Then there's his on-again, off-again bromance with Elon Musk. Donald has said he hires the best people and that Musk is brilliant. Now the Count of Mar-a-Lardo says Elon is a long-time drug user, begging the question of how Donnie defines "brilliant" and "the best." Speaking of the "best and brightest," Robert "Worm Brain" Kennedy, Jr. embraced his role as the nation's guardian of health yesterday by firing all of the vaccine experts in the Centers for Disease Control. But that's OK. It's not like we will ever experience something like, say, a pandemic. Yes, this is a Bizarro world with a Bizarro President who wears stupidity and cruelty as if it were a badge of honor. And there's nothing "super" about that. May God help us through his reign of terror. That's it for now. Fear the Turtle.
