It’s not been a full week. We’re a long way from peak hypocrisy.

There is no peak. It's an endless hamster wheel of hypocrisy. It will never end.

Please consider protesting on LinkedIn. I have had some success but see limited activity. LinkedIn hosts a mixed audience with influence and money.

Thank you and fuck Nazis of all stripes.

Hell no. This is a malignant clinical sociopath with low intelligence, onset dementia, and a lifetime of being trained that he can always get his way by throwing a tantrum and never being told “no” or facing real punishment.

It is going to get much, MUCH worse.

Oh hell no. He can always find a way to sink lower and degrade his office and country in the process.

Not a chance. He's got room for a lot more hypocrisy.

Has everyone stopped eating the cats, eating the dogs?

(Ever heard of "the dead cat" method?)

Two things to remember about him.

There is no bottom. (Or peak in this case)

The cruelty is the point.

Not according to the fucking idiots who voted for him. They love his lies and hypocrisy.

This has been a test week.

Can I pass illegal executive orders?

How far can I push the military?

Can I get an unqualified cabinet approved?

How much urine can I spray on the constitution?

Can I hide behind Elon Musk?

Will the media call me out?

Will the American Public react strongly?

And that’s a short list. Trump is checking how far over the line he can go and after week one he learned a whole lot about American Apathy, a complacent media, congressional intimidation and John Fettermanchin.

We are FAR from reaching the peak.

Yeah, cool your jets and fire up your imagination. We aren't stacking the dead in refrigerators trucks again yet, so why don't you wait until he's telling us about how lucky we are and how great it is once the bad shit starts rolling.
