"What war?"
The US Congress isn't blind and the president is still alive to blame for his historic blunder
https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...asnt-said-why/The number of specialists doesn't surprise me but CT angiography, D-dimer, and proBNP together suggests his medical team believes he's at a high risk for heart failure.
jawboning oil companies to lower the price of gasoline, as one does when everything is going awesome
The good thing is that he takes healthy naps in the middle of daily meetings.
The housing bill passed with wide bipartisan margins
Trump looks sweaty and desperate for doing this, he's basically punching himself in the nuts today because he's afraid of Dems winning the midterms
I hope Trump survives his presidency to see his (legal, political) comeuppance
Trump's contempt for the US Congress was eventually going to start pissing off Republicans too
Trump didn't keep the US Senate in the loop RE: war with Iran and there's probably some hard feelings about that
Two old men yelling at each other in front of (almost) all the Republican Senators tends to confirm
President Trump blew up at Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) during an intense meeting behind closed doors in the Capitol Wednesday after the Republican senator accused the president of not being forthright with the American people about the Iran war.
Trump asked “why would anybody vote for the war powers” resolution, according to Cassidy, who later recounted his tense debate with the president.
“I stood and said, ‘Is that a rhetorical question or would you like to really know?’” Cassidy said.
When Trump said he really wanted to know why Cassidy and three other Republicans — Sens. Rand Paul (Ky.), Susan Collins (Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) — voted with Democrats to attempt to curtail his authority as commander in chief, Cassidy stood up and ripped into Trump’s handling of the unpopular war.
“I stood and said, ‘You have not told the American people what’s going on. It was supposed to last four weeks, it’s lasted four months. Our original objectives have not been achieved and I want to know what’s going on,’” Cassidy said, recounting the heated back-and-forth.
Trump, infuriated over the Cassidy’s defiance in front of the entire Senate GOP conference, started yelling at the senator and Cassidy yelled back – matching the president’s tone and anger.
“He did not particularly care for my comments, raised his voice. I lost my temper, that’s not appropriate – it’s the Irish in me,” Cassidy said. “I matched his tone and his volume and it went back and forth.”https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/...n-gop-meeting/But the Louisiana Republican said he’s not sorry about clashing with Trump because he argued “the American people need to know” and “the Senate needs to know” more about what’s happening with the conflict with Iran.
at this rate Trump might not last until the midterms
the chances of the GOP chucking Trump overboard appears to be nonzero
inflation adjusted disposable income

Republicans are afraid of losing the midterms and facing accountability for supporting a criminal regime and covering up crimes -- as they should be
Johnson: If we lose the midterms, these Democrats will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors, friends, half of you in this room will be targeted. I run the protection program. We’ll take care of you.
He really said that?

(guilty-mindedness ponders the probable transition of Congressional power)
They should go after everyone in the family and review every move the president has made. If they were all on the up and up, he/ they should have nothing to worry about.
But they're clearly panicking.
Trump regularly falls asleep during televised appearances
Sidebar, it's incredible to me that guys like Dr Phil have completely given away all the credibility they ever had by hanging with team Trump.
The money must really be that good.
Dr. Phil's media company went bankrupt last year, he's probably willing kiss Trump's ass just to sniff new opportunities
inflation goes up again
