Yep, He Did It.
Very short Gene Pool today. Mostly, I just wanted to make sure you saw what Trump burbled out yesterday. It was not at night, so he was not yet sundowning. (He’d already done that the night before, in a spit-flecked series of social media posts that included doctored images of himself on the $100 bill and demands that his political opponents be arrested.)
In short, yesterday’s thing was not just another nocturnal admonition. He just said it, in broad daylight, in response to a question about whether he was motivated to make a deal with Iran to help Americans cope with financial problems caused by the war he started. This was his answer:
So. Here’s the question of the day, the Gene Pool Gene Poll.

Okay, good. I said this would be short. But I am going to end with something lovely. A reader submitted it, opining that it rivaled Seuss. I generally think nothing rivals Seuss, so I was skeptical. Then I watched it.
It rivals Seuss.
Good.
I’m out of here now, after my customary plea.
Please. If you can afford it. Adorably, it is how I make my living now.

Hearing all the lies exposed, seeing all the promises broken, and feeling the effects of incoherent policies, and then still thinking this is the leader America needs? That's the real definition of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
The most fervent members of thr MAGA cult will never change their minds. It's more important to see whether Trump's blurting out the truth affects swing and independent voters.
