I have little regard for the current President of the United States (I assume if he thought of me at all, the feeling would be reciprocated; and we'd both be right).
That admission, I hope, is not a newsflash if you stop by this space in cyberspace, if only sporadically. To me, he is a fass ohne boden, a barrel without a bottom. Any time and/or every time you think he cannot go any lower, he does.
The attack on Representative Ilhan Omar made headlines last week and provoked a wave of the political equivalent of thoughts and prayers, some of which may have been sincere, from all sides of the ideological spectrum.
With one notable exception (of course).
No bother, brother; really. Sort of like the tantrum about lowering the National Ensign at the White House for Senator McCain's funeral while eagerly doing so for Charlie Kirk. But what hung me up was his suggestion, "She probably had herself sprayed." What could have ever given him that idea?
I only ask because, for a guy who takes to Truth Social to criticize the NFL's kick-off rule, whining about not getting the Nobel Peace Prize for ending eight imaginary wars, critiquing the logo change for Cracker Barrel, to say nothing about his insistence that the 2020 election was stolen, how often has he ever mentioned Thomas Crooks? More importantly, why not?
Perhaps, I suspect, because it takes one to know one.
