Presidential Quotes

Trump held another adulation session in the Cabinet room with his loyal clowns, cronies, and crooks. Trump said on ending the war in Iran, “I read a story today that I'm desperate to make a deal. I'm not. I’m the opposite of desperate. I don’t care.”

Trump is the most dishonest occupant of the Oval Office since it was built. Given Harding and Nixon, that’s saying something. Trump lies with a frequency and ease that are frightening, yet is oddly part of his appeal to his cultists. When historians seek to identify a quote that encapsulates his second administration, “I don’t care” will be a strong candidate.

Presidential Quotes started out as a simple observation that it didn’t take long for America to descend from “Yes, we can” to “I don’t care.” And that is quite a descent, but it doesn’t capture just how low we’ve come. Thus the walk through history. And hey, I got to bring the TV back, which is something I always enjoy.

P.S. As President Obama said, “We don’t give up. We get up.” The No Kings protest is tomorrow. I hope you’ll get up and join in.
