Tom Nichols: A Farce and a Sham

He said, I direct the departments of the United States to think of ways to lower costs for the American public. I was like, okay, thanks, boss. Well, nobody was going to think of that until you put it into an executive order, but we'll get right on it. I mean, this is all make-believe and playtime. But I think that โ€“ let me try and find a silver lining.

The thing that also struck me about the past day is just the โ€“ incredible amount of incompetence that seems to be congealing at that end of Pennsylvania Avenue. I mean, there's a lot of damage incompetent and really bad people can do.

But I think we're going to get a look at what it would have been like eight years ago if there hadn't been people putting pool noodles and baby bumpers on all the corners of government. I'm kind of ready for that. I mean, that's why I'm not as depressed as you might have, you know, you might think the day after. So I'm kind of like sitting back and saying, listen, people voted for this.

They want to floor it over the edge of the cliff. Have at it, you know, but I think they didn't really expect Trump to lower prices or any of that stuff. And I think, too, you know, we have to remind ourselves that for all the talk about the threat to democracy that is now coalescing rapidly before our eyes, somehow millions of Democrats just didn't think it was that big a deal and didn't vote.

No, no. I'll just bookmark that. Democrats ran to say, for me, it's a a rant about the entire voting public where you had people who definitely did this for a reason that voted for Trump for reasons that they knew were nonsense. Right. That they weren't really voting. Somebody had a great I couldn't find it. Somebody put on Twitter.

Found kind of the first tweet from someone last fall who was complaining about the price of eggs, who now is posting about how they paid thousands of dollars to go to the inauguration but couldn't get in because it was inside.

It's like, I'm sorry, you know, normally you don't pay thousands and thousands of dollars to go to Washington and see an inauguration if you're really sweating the price of eggs. There's a lot of things I would.
