Epstein, Springsteen, and Trumpenstein
When we last checked in on our dashing hero Donald Trump, he was enthusiastically salivating over the chance to sign the “Take it Down” internet censorship bill. A few days ago, he did indeed sign this very Orwellian legislation. Most of us don’t deal in “revenge porn,” whatever that is, but we have good reason to fear this odious act.
So that’s at least one thing Trump has accomplished thus far in his second go round; making it even more difficult for truly dissenting views to be accessed online. And this is also the only thing the Republican majority in the House and Senate- you know, the alternative to the hopelessly evil “Woke” Democrats- has managed to do. Well, I think they snuck yet another pay raise for themselves in there. It’s hard to tell, because they do that so regularly. Why no Republican-led legislation to deport millions of illegals? Or end birth right citizenship? Or approve of the DOGE efforts to expose (and presumably at some point eliminate) all that governmental waste, fraud, and abuse? It’s almost like the MAGA forces have no power in Congress. It’s almost like the RINOs still rule the Stupid Party. It’s almost like the entire MAGA movement is all smoke and no fire. Or as I call it, the Trumpenstein Project.
Other than the dangerous “Take it Down” act, try to find out exactly what Trump has and hasn’t actually accomplished. He wrote a lot of executive orders, many of them which sounded really good, but have any actually been implemented? Other than the pardoning of the January 6 political prisoners? I’ll give him credit for that, so Trumpenstein has done two things, one good and one bad. If official reports are to be believed, his “mass deportation” has resulted in fewer illegals leaving the country than there were under Joe Biden. Both sides have reason to lie about these numbers, as the Left wants to hysterically suggest Trump is deporting everyone named Jose, and the Right is trying to portray it as a genuine “mass deportation,” where Trump is keeping up with those “promises made, promises delivered.” I haven’t driven by my Home Depot at 7 in the morning lately, but my guess is the parking lot is as full as ever.
In true Trumpenstein fashion, he has resumed troll tweeting (well now it would be categorized as Truth Socializing) ridiculous celebrities, usually in the middle of the night. Well, I guess he has to do something when he’s not on the golf course. Bruce Springsteen, whose music helped comprise the soundtrack of my youth, has admittedly become a really pathetic caricature of “The Boss.” He fell recently walking towards the stage, and sometimes manages to look like he’s in the beginning stages of transitioning to perhaps become the “ Bossette.” Or to be Woody Allen’s stunt double. Anyway, he said some predictable nasty things about Trump, what you’d expect from your typical celebrity with TDS. And Trumpenstein lashed back, at 2:00 in the morning no less, with a flurry of name calling that would make any “Woke” partisan proud. He really utilized every grammar school epithet he could think of, calling Springsteen everything except “poo-poo head.”
Trump, in fact, demanded an investigation into this “dried out ‘prune’ of a rocker” and others. In his patented all caps fashion, the leader of the free
