Another Weekend of Mentally Unhinged Behavior and Incompetence from the Intellectually Challenged Mad King in the Oval Office

Another weekend of mentally unhinged behavior and incompetence from the intellectually challenged Mad King in the Oval Office.

Remember when Donald Trump and his MAGA band of reactionary white nationalist fascists whined and bullied people who called out Charlie Kirk for what he stood for following his assassination, saying they were indecent and un-American.

Well, this is the Mad King’s reaction to the passing of Robert Mueller, the former F.B.I. Director and Special Counsel for Investigating Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election.

How un-Presidential.

How un-American.

Compare the Mad King’s post to the remarks from the President who appointed Mr. Mueller to the F.B.I. Directorship, George W. Bush.

Or the President who reappointed him to that position, Barack Obama:

To be fair, this should not be surprising given the remarks below made by Mr. Trump at Mr. Kirk’s Memorial Service where he said he “Hated his opponents and didn’t want what was best for them.”

Unfortunately, for the country, this is not the only mentally unhinged or incompetent act Mr. Trump did this weekend.

Earlier today (March 22, 2026), Mr. Trump, rather than work out a deal with Democrats to reopen the Department of Homeland Security during a time of war, thanks to Trump, announced that he was sending ICE agents, who are getting paid to help TSA agents, who are not getting paid, to some of the nation’s airports.

In the earlier post below, Mr. Trump threatened to go after illegal immigrants who arrive at the airports, especially Somali’s.

Based on ICE’s performance on the streets of American Cities over the last year, since Mr. Trump’s return, in what reality does this work out well for the country and the American People?

How un-American.

How un-Presidential.

In a final display of Mr. Trump’s intellectually challenged mindset, he removed some oil sanctions against Iran, the nation he went to war against, and wants $200 billion for that same conflict after repeatedly saying, “We won.”

How un-American and un-Presidential is it to give aid and comfort to the enemy while spending billions on a war of choice when you say you have no money to fund health care or food assistance for your own people?

In a great opinion piece from the New York Times, Nicholas Kristof shows how that $200 billion would be better spent, including:

“For a bit more than two weeks of this war, we could offer free college education to every American family earning less than $125,000 annually, at a cost of around $30 billion a year.

For less than three weeks of war, or $35 billion, we could run a nationwide pre-K program for 3- and 4-year-olds.

For $75 million, about an hour’s worth of war, we could provide three books free to every child in America who is living under the poverty line, according to Kyle Zimmer of First Book, a nonprofit that works on early literacy. Research suggests that books like these can help get children reading and improve their outcomes.

A woman dies in the United States every two hours, on average, from cervical cancer. Screening all uninsured women who need it would cost perhaps $1 billion and could save hundreds of lives, according to Dr. Linda Eckert, a cervical cancer expert at the University of Washington. That’s less than 13 hours of the war bill.

We could get glasses to all 2.3 million low-income schoolchildren in the United States who need them but don’t have them. The base cost would be about $300 million, according to Vision to Learn, a nonprofit that does this work. The bill would be what we spend on four hours of this war.

For about $34 billion a year, less than three weeks of war, we could restore health insurance subsidies that the Trump administration let expire last year. One analysis predicted an additional 8,800 preventable American deaths as a result.”

If Republicans want to fund Mr. Trump’s war against Iran, Democrats should say fine, but we want all the things listed in Kristof’s column to get our vote.

When Democrats come back into power, do not let Republicans whine about the need to tighten fiscal belts and there is no money to help the poor and expand the middle class.

Fiscal discipline never matters to them when they are in power, and voters should not let them get away with this pretense again when they are out of it.
