So some guys are sitting around managing a dam and the President just calls and tells them to open it up? So, he can say he made some water flow in California?

  This, alongside side the footage and mic of him signing EOs he neither wrote nor know what they are, really make it seem like they're just keeping him occupied.

    Did Biden write anything he signed? This comment is a bit disingenuous considering that Biden was asleep for his entire term. His nap times were legendary.

      Well, if we’re going by those metrics then wait ‘til I tell you about the young dynamic lad who replaced President Hindenburg, age 84. I prefer sleepy. If the presidency should be spent in a coma compared to this, then all the better.

  > Everyone in this chain of command should be fired and Trump should get the 25th amendment. (I know that won't happen I think that ship sailed when Merrick Garland failed to aggressively prosecute Trump after he incited an attack on the Capitol. He seems to have been under the impression that given time opinions would settle and become wholly aligned against Trump. Instead, the Republicans' initial condemnation gave way to denial and approval. Garland misjudged the right-wing's domination of media and assumed that sanity would prevail, sparing him from having to do something potentially controversial. Now just over half the voting population believes that the 2020 elections were rigged by Democrats, and that they tried to unjustly charge Trump. It was liberal incompetence at its peak, and it may well be the historical all-time peak-liberal point ideologically-speaking, as we're forced to confront the fact that propaganda works, and voters are not rational. My greatest fear is that Trump tanks the economy, makes life intolerable, and when 2028 rolls around the American public overwhelmingly vote in a Democrat who has learned nothing of value and runs on a platform of "return to sanity" ushering in a return to neo-liberalism, but dropping the progressive social policies in favor of strict media and communication controls to "prevent misinformation from destroying our country again."
