    Mike, elsewhere I've sang praise to Trump for being one of the few elected officials, ever, to actually do, or attempt to do, balls to the walls, everything he promised.

    But, he did not "accomplish" Schedule F. He did not go balls the the walls on it. He issued an EO 2 weeks before the election to department/cabinet heads to identify the positions that influenced policy... he only started the ball rolling... those would not have been in place until after the inauguration... and so they never happened.

    He dropped the ball on drain the swamp. Pure. Simple. Factual.

    To @BugI02 's point that everything cannot be in the first 100 days. Sure, I get that... but 3 years and 50 weeks in... on the 1,130th day? Obviously not a priority...

    And definitely not a mic drop moment.

    I think that’s where all the denials come from. I think Mike is thinking in a colloquial sense. I’m using the actual meaning. Trump is a politician. I’m not gonna say there is no corruption in him.

    But, as much as that guy has been investigated, if there is any corruption in him and all they have on him is taking some documents home with him (which apparently every president/veep does) or paying off the porn star he ****ed, then that’s a lot cleaner than we’d find Biden, if he were scrutinized like that.
    If Biden were scrutinized like Trump has been he would be a puddle of melted ice cream.

    Would he even know it was happening?
    Hey uh, who installed these bars in the whitehouse? Did I get my morning briefing. I don’t remember my morning briefing. Thanks whoever put that toilet next to my bunk. Now I don’t have that far to go. Can someone get me a different secret service agent to sleep in the top bunk? This guy looks like Corn Pop. And he keeps smelling my hair.

    This was pretty much what Trump was saying in a truth social post a while ago criticizing DeSantis for his ongoing personal tiff with Disney.

    ESPN and Disney CEO Bob Iger sent a clear threat to DeSantis, the Republican leader who's been critical of the Orlando-based theme park.

    "One question: Does the state want us to invest more, employ more people, and pay more taxes — or not?" he asked.

    "We've built a business that employs, as we've said before, over 75,000 people and attracts tens of millions of people to the state."

    Iger added that Disney paid more than $1 billion in state and local taxes last year.

    Empty threats. It would never be feasible for Disney to move.
    Of course it wouldn't be feasible. I don't think he's talking about packing up and moving the whole shebang. I believe he's talking about future investments like developing more properties, paying more taxes, employing more people and attracting more tourists thus creating more local and state revenue.

    I think DeSantis even threatened to build a state prison adjacent to Disney properties out of spite if they didn't fall in line so they couldn't invest in developing it.

    "One question: Does the state want us to invest more, employ more people, and pay more taxes — or not?" he asked.

    Disney is likely gonna chill until the next governors race. Politicians come and go, mega-global corporations tend to stick around a bit longer. It wasn't long ago some drug-using, male prostitute-renting guy OD'd. And that guy was damn near governor of Florida. I'm thinking Disney's long game is intact.
