There’s actually a third way that this is stupid, because what Trump posted was “This is Biden’s Stock Market, not Trump’s”. But of course the main negative data today was the quarterly economics report, not the markets (which, AIUI, recovered early losses and basically had already priced in this data). So _Thanks, Joe Biden!_, for a relatively calm stockmarket. That’s…somehow…responsible for the GDP contraction. ---

So given Trump’s support of the Declaration of Independence as a document of “unity and love”, I decided to go back and read it to see how his supporters are planning to spin this ( for example, unity among the colonies). Here is some of what I found: He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither "He has made [judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, "For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world "For depriving us in many cases, of the benefit of atrial by Jury “He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, This is just some of what I found. It almost seems like we need a Declaration of Independence from Trump. ---

RFK Jr. sounds like a dangerous, dangerous person who’ll cause the United States to revert to the way it was during the 1950’s and before, by cutting down on the requirements for vaccines such measles, polio, Covid-19, and other vaccines that have pretty much wiped the above-mentioned illnesses , as well as many others.

Heh. Another example of Trump’s psychological projection (sorry if this has been posted, I just saw it): [Study shows Trump suffers from Biden Derangement Syndrome](https://www.nj.com/politics/2025/04/study-shows-trump-suffers-from-biden-derangement-syndrome.html) > Why won’t President Donald Trump stop talking about his predecessor? > > A new analysis [from NBC News](https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/first-100-days-trump-still-leans-old-foe-joe-biden-rcna201229) shows that Trump has spoken about former President Joe Biden, his family or his administration 580 times in public remarks or on social media posts since he took office. NBC noted that the number averages out to about six times for every day of Trump’s presidency. > > In comparison, NBC News reported that Biden invoked Trump just 29 times during the first 100 days of his presidency. > … > MSNBC political contributor Steve Benen [wrote on Monday](https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/even-easter-message-trump-cant-shake-unhealthy-fixation-biden-rcna202159): “The idea of ‘Biden Derangement Syndrome’ never really caught on as a phenomenon during Biden’s term, but to the extent that the ailment exists, there’s reason to believe his successor has contracted a virulent strain, which has gone completely untreated.” I’m guessing there won’t be a vaccine for BDS. ---

I wrote this during Trump 1.0 and COVID, but think it aged quite well: But, but, but … Benghazi! But, but, but … The FBI! But, but, but … The Justice Department!
