Someone should write about Trump’s successes. Oh, OK, I will: None.

Well, he has made himself and his family a lot richer, and he has protected himself and other criminals from being held accountable for their crimes, so that’s quite a remarkable success.

The image of TFG at the McDonald’s Summit looks like a spoof from Saturday Night Live or Monty Python. In what universe, other than the one we are trapped in, does a United States president speak at a gathering of fast food restaurant owners? A quid pro quo to him for all the unpaid advertising he gives to McDonald’s.

Oh! That’s why he was there. From the McDonald’s summit: "We are retiring Supply Chain's *Mutual Commitment to DEI pledge* in favor of a more integrated discussion with suppliers about inclusion as it relates to business performance."

“No one can predict the future with any certainty; the economy could improve dramatically at some point in Trump’s term. But if it does, it will be not because of his policies, but in spite of them. And if anything, the choices he makes over the next three years will likely only make things worse.” He has been stepping in piles of 💩 for decades, and somehow still manages to come out smelling like a 🌹. 😞

With the exception of Trump Tower - a well known laundromat - the man has depended upon his father’s real estate empire (in the outer boroughs) to keep him afloat while his investments - hotels, vodka, casinos, an airlines, a football team, etc., etc. - have plummeted southward.
