Fuck Paul Woodward. Nobody has given a shit what that washed-up disgrace has had to say for decades.

Paul Woodward is not Bob Woodward and Bernstein, the famous Watergate reporters. But Paul did correctly note that Trump's discombobulation technique used against the doddering old fools in the Democratic party is precisely the same technique Hitler used. In Germany, the doddering old fools should have stopped being offended by Hitler's endless streams of words and, instead, killed him to shut him up.

Doesn't matter. They'd both have exactly the same thing to say and either one of them would have invoked Hitler to get their point across, either out of their own mental inability to put their out-of-control emotional outbursts to paper, or because they know that's what their braindead audience wants to ingest and what keeps them sticking around for the ad revenue.

A golden calf speaks at the National Prayer Breakfast

By Sabrina Haake | Feb 07, 2026

https://sabrinahaake.substack.com/p/a-golden-calf-speaks-at-the-nation
al


On Thursday, Trump addressed the 2026 National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C., a tradition President Dwight Eisenhower began in 1953 to solemnify the confluence of faith, gratitude, and public service. At Eisenhower’s ceremony, after he swore the oath of office, he delivered an unscripted and spontaneous prayer of humility, calling on God to “make full and complete our dedication to the service of the people.”

Seventy-odd years later at this year’s national prayer breakfast, Trump met Eisenhower’s prayer of humility and raised him one.

Instead of somber reflection or words to soothe an anxious nation, Trump used the national prayer to deliver a blasphemous meditation on Trump: 77 minutes of self-indulgence, grievance and hatred.

Using national prayer to promote violence

Trump opened his remarks by maligning the press, complaining that he never gets “a fair break from the fake news, which is (points dismissively) back there.”

Then, only three sentences in, he started referring to himself referentially as “Sir” while calling everyone else by their first name.

Forgetting the prayer theme of the breakfast, Trump joked about murdering people in Venezuela like it was locker room talk. “I was just talking to a great leader from El Salvador and he said, man, that was some attack, I’ve never seen anything like that one. Right? Right?” Continuing his banter with the murderous Bukele across the room, Trump laughed, “That (violent attack) was good even by your high standard, right? That was a hell of an attack.”

Only ghouls or morons would think that was funny. In a rule of law world, Trump would be hauled into the ICC on multiple charges of murder.

He also used the prayer breakfast to admire El Salvador’s torture prison, CECOT, saying President Bukele (“so incredible, such a great ally”) operates “prisons so large you can’t see from one side to the other.” Trump said he’d sent CECOT “murderers, the drug dealers, the people that came into our country illegally and have already committed massive crimes… We had 11,888 murderers and many of them are in (Bukele’s) prisons right now.”

Eleven thousand murderers? Massive crimes? CBS News and the Cato Institute reported that under 12% of the 250 men sent to CECOT had prior criminal convictions, and those were mostly minor. Meanwhile, Trump butchering due process to have innocent people tortured will go down as one of the worst abuses of government power in American history.

Trump tells congregants that immigrants are waiting to murder them

After lying about who he is having deported, and why, Trump continued his un-Christlike tirade against immigrants as “monsters” and “vicious people.”

Rejecting calls from Pope Leo XIV to deal with immigrants humanely and with dignity, Trump said at his prayer breakfast that, “You can’t have people going to church and coming out and have criminals taking advantage, and doing things that nobody even wants to describe. We have to get the bad ones out.” Immigrants, it bears repeating, commit far less crime than native born U.S. citizens.

On brand, Trump then segued to his ICE crackdown in Washington, D.C., claiming he removed over 2,000 “monsters” from the streets. Federal arrest data show that ove

Let Trump Keep Building Monuments to Himself

The president’s penchant for gilded statues and self-glorification clarifies the nature of his leadership.

By Gal Beckerman | February 8, 2026, 7 AM ET

https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026/02/let-trump-keep-building-mo
numents-to-himself/685903
/

A 15-foot-tall golden sculpture of the president—“Don Colossus” to friends—has recently been completed and will likely soon stand triumphantly, his fist in the air, atop a 7,000-pound pedestal that has already been installed at Trump’s Miami golf club. As for Trump, he loves what he’s seen so far—“It LOOKS FANTASTIC,” he wrote in a letter—and so not only will the statue most likely be erected in Miami before long, but a smaller version might also be headed for the White House.

At times, Trump’s desire to see his own outsize ego reflected in his physical surroundings, to wrap things in gold, supersize them, and then slap his name on them, seems to have no limit: the ballroom that ate the East Wing; the proposed “Arc de Trump”; the Trump Kennedy Center. Now he wants to rename Dulles Airport and Penn Station after himself.

But the news about the statue makes you wonder about what new frontiers of presidential self-regard lay ahead of us. The project was organized by a group of cryptocurrency investors who raised $300,000 for it and have been using it to hype a memecoin called $PATRIOT. The sculptor, meanwhile, had no idea that his art would be used in this promotional way. Like many people who have worked on Trump-related projects over the decades, he is still awaiting full payment for his work, and he won’t release the colossus from his studio in Zanesville, Ohio, until the check arrives.

Bear with me when I say something that many might find distasteful: Let’s have even more of this. The most effective way to highlight the unprecedentedly self-serving nature of Trump’s presidency has always been through moments when its abnormality is abject and undeniable.

In case a reminder is needed: There is no tradition in America of presidents commissioning or even unveiling statues of themselves. Of course, there are a few famous postmortem monuments, including the Lincoln Memorial and Mount Rushmore. But even these can be controversial. When the sculptor Horatio Greenough created a 12-ton marble statue of President George Washington in 1842 for the centennial of the Founder’s birth, he modeled it on images of Zeus. People felt such deep discomfort at the sight of Washington in nothing but a toga and sandals—looking like he was relaxing in a sauna and showing off some admirable pecs—that it kept being schlepped around the Capitol, even landing at one point on the East Lawn, hidden in a shed.

Whether you are a president or not, endorsing a 15-foot golden statue of yourself suggests either an enormous ego or a drive to inspire fear—or both. In authoritarian countries where the Dear Leader’s image is a mandatory fixture in public or even private places—during the Cultural Revolution, a Mao Zedong portrait in your home was obligatory—it also risks telegraphing insecurity. The object of enforced idol worship might be compensating for being a mortal with earthbound power by literally representing themselves as omnipresent or larger than life.

Such self-aggrandizement has never been an attractive side of Trump—again, even for many of his supporters. Polls show that his voters want him to get things done: fix the economy and make it affordable, project strength on the world stage, make good deals. Burnishing his cult of personality is, for all but the most besotted or trollish, not on that list. Which is why those opposed to Trump might consider keeping quiet at the sight of false idols. Statues and nameplates reveal better than anything else how much his idea of power diverges from the traditional institution of the American presidency.

When oppressive regimes do collapse, the first thing people tend to do is topple the statues; this literal iconoclasm becomes an outlet for their relief and rage. Just over a year a

The Trump Bubble Is Impregnable for Now—but Boy, Is It Going to Burst

The president is on a collision course with an accountability moment. Either he or our democracy will prevail.

By Michael Tomasky | Feb 9, 2026

https://newrepublic.com/article/206321/trump-bubble-impregnable-2026-e
lection


The new year is no longer so new, and we’re 10 months away from the midterm elections. Let’s take stock of where things stand in this country by acknowledging five central points that combine to tell us that we are at an unprecedented and chilling place in our history: We have a corrupt and incompetent president whom we are, for the time being, powerless to rein in; and on top of that, we have every reason to fear that, when the time comes to rein him in (this November), he will do everything he can to nullify the electoral process and reverse the voters’ will.

Last year was a democratic nightmare. This year is going to be worse. But he can’t do this forever. My five points below describe his temporary strength. But they also suggest that his hold on absolute power is fragile, and the reckoning day is coming.

Point one: On a personal level, Donald Trump is becoming more and more unhinged. He rambles, he stumbles, he fumbles. We don’t know whether he actually pooped himself in that one much-discussed episode in the Oval Office. But the fact that it has been discussed as something that might have happened is bad enough. And even if he retains full control of those evacuations, it’s the ones coming out of his brain and mouth that remain more concerning. Politico reported recently that the prime minister of Slovakia—a Trump ally—met with Trump at the White House on January 28 and later told other world leaders that he was concerned about Trump’s “psychological state.”

That repost of the Obamas as apes has been widely interpreted as one more Trumpian effort to troll the libs. Sure, I guess it was that. But what if it was something else? It may also have been the act of a man who is losing some marbles. It was beyond anything even he has ever done along those lines. He’s losing it. The mainstream media is afraid to touch the topic. The right-wing media screams that everything’s fine, it’s Trump Derangement Syndrome. That’s an apt phrase, all right, but it means the opposite of what the Foxies think it means. The bottom line for now is that the rest of us, the majority that finds him repulsive, just has to sit here and watch.

Point two: Politically, the bubble in which he lives is becoming further and further removed from reality. His penchant for self-aggrandization, always prodigious, has lately reached the point of insane self-parody.

Case in point: Last Thursday, it was reported that there were 108,000 layoffs in January—the worst number since the Great Recession. But the stock market also hit 50,000 on Friday. Of course, any president would brag about the latter and play down the former, but Trump went much further, congratulating himself repeatedly on achieving this milestone in one year.

First of all, “he” didn’t achieve it. And second, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was around 44,000 the day he took office, meaning it’s gone up around 6,000 points in the last year and change. That’s really no different from the change in the last year of Biden’s presidency, when it went from just under 38,000 up to 44,000. That’s normal stock market growth.

People aren’t buying his economic palaver; they see it as self-serving and out of touch. But that isn’t even the worst part of the Trump bubble. He has come to believe that the American people actually want what Immigration and Customs Enforcement is doing where it’s been unleashed. They do not. He has created for himself a world in which he never hears a negative word about himself. This is not a plea for him and his people to wake up—they won’t, and I’m well past hoping they will. It is rather an observation that this too is one more Trumpian assault on democracy. He thinks himself answerable only to those who adore him and think he can do no wrong—in other wo

Yep. I wrote all of that.

I won't take a single word of it back either.

I'm right. You are wrong.

What I wrote above is what the VAST majority of American Citizens of any color believes. IT'S WHAT THEY'VE ALWAYS BELIEVED. They were just too afraid to tell you or the pollsters. Until now.

Your ideology is dead and everyone hates you.


Nobody wants to hear a fucking word out of you. You want men beating up women in women's sports because you don't even know what the fuck a difference between a man and woman is.

And now nobody takes anything you have to say about anyone seriously anymore.

Congratulations, you dumb motherfucker. You did that.
