“Once a week, the Trump administration does something that would get an ordinary president impeached in sane times: cooking up a ridiculously pretextual criminal investigation to try to bully the Fed chairman into cutting interest rates leaps to mind, as does murdering scores of seafaring South Americans on similarly thin pretexts. Consider the fact — which would be unbelievable in normal times — that NATO countries are sending troops to Greenland because NATO — a U.S.-led alliance — is worried that the United States is about to carry out an act of war against Denmark. … Trump’s amorality and ruthlessness, and those of his underlings, are constrained by one thing and one thing alone, and it is not the noodly spines of such specimens as Mike Pence: It is their incompetence — their horrifying, hilarious incompetence.” (01/16/26)
