Jill: is there evidence that he EVER knew the basics of grammar, syntax, capitalization? Is this a demonstrable decline or did he manage to get through school like that?

Back in the 70s PBS presented a BBC production of Robert Graves' "I, Claudius." The episodes featuring Caligula were frightening for their arbitrariness and madness. This is what our lived reality feels like. When will a horse get introduced as a Senator? This all defies belief.

The other side of this is that manic episodes don't usually last very long, and there's often a hard and corresponding crash. I would like it if Trump is no longer president before that happens.

When I was a kid in the 1970s I would hear whistles because the ice cream truck was coming and we’d all run out to buy ice cream.

Now in 2026, when you hear a whistle, it means grab the kids and run in the house and lock your door because the ICE truck is coming to kidnap you.

Is Trump and Miller ever gonna stop?
