85. There's a certain dignity in recognising your limitations as you get old.

Mon Jun 8, 2026, 10:01 PM

Things that were easy in your younger days become harder and take longer.

Things you attempted before become a no-go zone.

But it takes a certain level of introspective intelligence to realize this, and Trump misses out badly there.

I expect Trump to flame out in a big way soon, and for that information to stay hidden for weeks.

When it happens, I will pretend I don't care too much, but inwardly I will be jubilant.
