He imagines himself a king. Which is not newsworthy unless it's carried through to the full conclusion. It's ok, it's not important.

JD Vance is a pick-me girl. He tries so hard and is just so lame. 😬🤦‍♂️

Why would you think that?

First heard this song in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. I couldn't wait to grow up and find a girl like Jennifer Jason Leigh. 😄

Except as an example of the ravings of a confused old dementia-riddled rapist, this is not a thing. Trump once again imagines himself as Louis XVI, which will only matter if they stay true to the ending.

More ravings from a spiraling demented old rapist. Oh well.

Who among us wouldn't have believed that to be a direct quote from Pete "The Diplomat" Hoekstra?

Completely understand. And you're clearly a better human than me. 🙂

Given the level of sneering bad faith "questioning," you would have been completely justified in dunking on his ass.

Definitely. And, look, it might pay off if he has time for it to become clear that nothing's going to get built. But the immediate coalition he built to get elected is blown up -- the word of the day from the left is "betrayal".

I always went with "lower mainland" for Vancouver area, "the Island" for the Island, and "B.C." for the rest. But that's from a far away Ontario view.

Emilie! You're so sweet, thank you. I'll be ok -- feeling a little bruised but this too shall pass. Thank you for your kindness. 🤗♥️

Trump cracks at any hint of pushback. He's such a weakling.
November 28, 2025 at 3:07 AM
Thanks, Cheryl, that's very kind. 🤗♥️

No, definitely not Pierre. But that's what I mean -- if you make all your calculations based on the current circumstances and then the circumstances suddenly change, you can find yourself blindsided. PP just assumed he'd run against Trudeau and look what happened. Carney can't make the same mistake.
