Some members Congress do their jobs. Not cultist Cline. Vote Beth Macy for Congress!

"Arlington National Cemetery is sacred ground, the resting place for some of our nation’s greatest heroes. It is unthinkable that we would desecrate this hallowed space to build a monument to Donald Trump’s ego.

Trump’s vanity project would waste taxpayer money, brazenly violate existing law, and become yet another vehicle for his corruption. The Administration has also given no consideration to potential harmful effects on the region including impacts on air safety and traffic on major roadways.

Worst of all, Trump is not trying to build this arch to commemorate national heroes, servicemembers who lie in Arlington National Cemetery, or to celebrate freedom. He did not dedicate it to the American people or our country’s greatness. Asked who this arch is for, Trump said, simply: ‘me.’ Congress must draw the line at dishonoring our fallen with such naked displays of narcissism, and I therefore call on all members of both parties to join our efforts to block this arch.” -Rep. Don Beyer, VA08

Trump has trapped himself in a cul-de-sac of humiliation with no feasible way out.

He's a giant orange bag of entitlement and grievance who believes other people exist solely to cater to his ego. Spineless Cline asks, "What can I do for you, Dear Leader?"

Iran is supposed to fall to its knees and surrender because that would be convenient for Trump; the media is supposed to praise him for winning no matter what he does.

When other people fail to do what Trump wants (as in his 2020 election lies) he spins fantasies and conspiracy theories and/or whines endlessly about how he is being treated unfairly.

This is why ever since the ceasefire on April 8, Trump has repeated a cycle over and over of announcing a vague deal, then vowing to escalate, then backing down, then announcing a vague deal again.

It’s possible that Trump is trying to manipulate markets or shore up polls by lying. But there’s also reason to believe he has trouble distinguishing his own fantasies from reality. -Noah Berlatsky
