Unbelievable

 This is a strange time.

I've lived through any number of international crises and this one feels different.

Somehow less involving....

Less believable.....

Perhaps because the people who are orchestrating it for us are so absurd.

The President most of all,

But his lieutenants too. People like Dick Cheyney and Henry Kissinger were horrible but at least appeared to know what they were doing, whereas Pete Hegseth and all the other chappies whose names I'd have to look up because they're so  unmemorable come across as incompetent and hysterical and silly.

It's like we're in the universe of the Three Stooges.

One looks at what they're doing and one thinks (well I do anyway)

"Come off it!"

"You having a laugh?"

"Get real!"

Since I started this post I've learned that the President just posted this image on his website.


O, the presumption, the self-pity, the tone deafness!

After the spat with the Pope and the picture he posted of himself as Jesus you'd think he'd have known better than to keep on digging....

I mean, really!
