No adults in the room

Adam Kinzinger and I may not agree on policy much, but we absolutely agree on this:

Picture this. American troops in harm’s way. Gas prices climbing toward record highs. The economy teetering on the edge of recession. Russia attacking Ukraine. China flexing across the Pacific. Iran probing every soft spot it can find. The world is on fire, and the global order our parents and grandparents built — the order that has kept us prosperous, free, and feared by tyrants — is shaking on its foundation.

So what is the Trump White House doing about it?

Posting cartoon turtles.

The world is watching. They see the memes. They see the banners. They see the groveling. And they’re laughing — right up until they stop laughing and start moving.

Russia, China, and Iran could not have scripted a better blueprint for the slow dismemberment of the American project than the one this White House is acting out for them, live, every single day. The most patriotic thing any of these cabinet members could do right now is shut up, log off, and try — for once in their professional lives — to do their actual jobs.

We have a demented, malignant narcissist rapidly coming apart in charge of the most clownish cabinet in history. Not even Harding was this corrupt, and no cabinet since the start of the Republic was this stupid.

The mid-terms are in 188 days. After we vote the enablers out, let's hold these grifting idiots to account.
