20. Trump's White House:

Wed Jun 17, 2026, 12:36 PM

Wednesday

Trump’s White House:

"Run by men obsessed with looking tough, but who are, in actuality, weak and incompetent.

The more they fail, the more they grasp for these theatrical but ineffectual displays of masculine preening, hoping that the public mistakes loud and violent displays for strength.

This may fool the hardcore MAGA base into perpetuity, but increasingly, it’s becoming evident to everyone else that all the chest-pounding theatrics are just a cover to conceal the weakness that defines MAGA manhood."

So FREAKIN true! We've all known this but the writer expressed it just so perfectly!
Thank you Amanda Marcotte!
