How fast can you shake and move on?

While Donald’s photobomb attempt got all the attention, Borja Iglesias, strongly anti-Trump, was asked up front if he’d shake the President’s hand

He said he hoped it would “pass very quickly.”. But that yes. “I don’t want to go to jail.”

Comparison shopping..

Tyler Rogers, who would’ve returned to SF Giants, signed 3 yr, $37 million contract with Toronto Blue Jays

46 appearances, 44 innings, 1-2 w/ 1.61 ERA

SF Giants signed Aaron Houser for 2 yrs $22 million.

19 appearances, 83 innings, 2-7 w/ 5.10 ERA.

Tom Cruise, for some reason at the World Cup

“Millions of people united by one language… football.”

Uh, Tom Cruise, hundreds of millions of Americans don’t even call it football.

Also Canada, Australia, Japan, New Zealand call it soccer.

Leaving aside the fact that many people hate the change, are avoiding Palm Beach Airport, which was PBI and is now DJT, arport, and airport code humor is taking off.

FAT DJT- Fresno to Palm Beach

DJT SUX – Palm Beach to Sioux City

MAD MAN DJT – Madrid, Manchester, Palm Beach

So what’s the real reason for this latest tariff madness

That Donald’s feelings were hurt by being booed and avoided while Canadian PM Mark Carney was well received at the World Cup final?

At luxury hotel event in 2025, Maui hotel sales rep bemoaned plan to bring 50 top Canadian travel agents to Maui for familiarization trip.

They canceled, saying Canadians don’t want to come to US.

Inbound tourism has fallen off a cliff.

We’re ALL paying for Trump’s tantrums.

Meanwhile, as Mark Carney issues a calm well-reasoned statement on tariffs, in case we forget, it wasn’t that long ago that the USA was also a functioning democracy with a grownup in charge…

Why isn’t this a bigger story?

Dozens of US troops were wounded in 3 Iranian strikes in Jordan that Pentagon kept quiet in week before attack that killed 3 American soldiers
Attacks damaged multiple American helicopters & were never publicly disclosed, but multiple officials confirmed them to NY Times Monday”.
