As we move through the confirmation process for President-elect Pussygrabber's cabinet nominees the next few weeks, we will encounter many references in the media to the president's "agenda." They'll go on and on about the ways in which each nominee is supposed to hold views supportive of or consistent with that "agenda," and there will be much discussion of the extent of the Senate's support for or interpretation of that "agenda."
It all will be posed in terms of ideology, principles, policy positions, and political strategy, as if those things in any way define the president's "agenda." And to that extent, all this coverage - literally all of it - will be misleading, false, and beside the point.
President Pussygrabber has no ideology. He has no principles. He has no political strategy. He has no policy positions that he will not abandon as soon as he perceives it to be to his personal advantage in that moment to do so. All this should be obvious to anyone who has been paying attention, but it is not to the advantage of our corporate media to say so directly. Like commentators at a bad sporting event, the corporate media's political "journalists" cover politics in order to promote their own job security and career advancement, and to help their corporate employers to make money by making it look like an exciting contest that people will want to tune into, and to do so in a manner that does not unduly impair their corporate employers' interests. These latter two goals they mostly achieve by engaging in endless speculative prognostication, gossip, both-sidesism (the equivalent of donating to both parties), horse race polling, and construction of entertaining narratives of easy to understand conflict and scandal, all calculated to be of interest to their audience and all beside the point.
So they won't tell you outright that the President may indeed have an agenda, only it has nothing to do with ideology, principles, political strategy or policy. He nominates people who are patently unqualified for the jobs he wants to put them in, hostile to the functions of the agencies they are vying to lead, and committed to policies diametrically opposed to each other. They are unified only in that they have pledged loyalty to and will be beholden to Pussygrabber. Governance, as such, is not on this president's agenda. Instead, his actual agenda has three main objectives: to stay out of prison, to monetize government, and to prepare for a comfortable and lucrative retirement from politics at the end of his term. Again, this much should be obvious.
The president-elect's first objective is largely achieved, via the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity, "Judge" Aileen Cannon's perversion of her federal court to protect the man who appointed her, and the presidential power of pardon.
The second objective explains why Pussygrabber's partnership with Elon Musk is superceding his reliance on Steve Bannon, the latter of whom is at present being thrown under the bus with regard to the HI visa program. During the time of Bannon's ascendancy, Trump said he wanted to abolish this program, but Musk uses it to import cheap techies from India; so much for MAGA. There's more money in Musk.
That leaves the third objective to be accomplished. A lot rides on the mid-term congressional elections. Pussygrabber needs to retain control of either the House or the Senate, and preferably both, in order for the prez biz to stay lucrative and to ensure a soft landing beyond 2026. Otherwise, he could face all sorts of obstacles up to and potentially including yet another impeachment.
Stay tuned! We've assembled a focus group of Evangelical Christians in Kankakee, Illinois, to tell you all about it. But first, a new poll says that most Americans are disappointed!
