    He has bigger things to do. He'll be attending the Commanders football game tomorrow, and wants the owner to name their new stadium after him. The self-serving grifting narcissist wants everything named after him.

    They used to do the same for Stalin in the Soviet Union. There are stories of him receiving letters from peasants sure that Stalin would help them with their problems - sure that Uncle Stalin was just being kept in the dark by corrupt low-level apparatchiks as Stalin was signing 'find 10,000 more to purge (kill) - doesn't matter where from".

    I'm sure there are people in North Korea sending letters to Kim every day.

    It's something about authoritarianism and their propaganda and the type of person who falls for it. They really WANT that fantasy paternal and nurturing version of their leader to be real, so much that they ignore all the evidence otherwise, I guess.

    There is some gaping hole in these people that NEEDS that fantasy of a caring, beneficent father-figure of a leader to be real.

    The funny part is that he says a man is only as good as his word, yet voted for that pathological liar Trump 3 times. Then, after the hundreds of thousands of disgusting things Trump has done over the years he is just now starting to lose respect for him. It's people like him who put Trump in office again, even after all the warnings and red flags. Those are the ones I feel sorry for least of all.

    these neanderthals are so low IQ it’s beyond embarrassing

    Kenney blames Democrats for the shutdown because of Vice President JD Vance’s assertions that the healthcare subsidies Democratic lawmakers seek to extend will be used fraudulently to benefit undocumented immigrants – claims rejected by Democrats and most congressional budget analysts.

    Its all about the hermetically sealed media environment these people willingly isolate themselves in. Not the brightest people ever but not historically uniquely stupid. Just willing accomplaces in the furtherance of their own ignorance.

    If i have absolute control of the news you take in, I can make you believe whatever I want.

    Why people feel the need to isolate themselves in this alternative reality bubble seems like fertile ground for study. In traditional authoritarian states people are forced to listen to propaganda. These people have willingly chosen to tune out everything but the propaganda. Its frustrating and I don't really understand it very clearly, but its the dynamic of the 21st century in America beyond a doubt.

    I feel like mush-for-brains saying "state your name" instead of his name is the bigger story.

    You've heard all about this right?

    President Donald Trump wants the Washington Commanders to name their planned $3.7 billion stadium after him, multiple sources with knowledge of the situation told ESPN.

    A senior White House source said there have been back-channel communications with a member of the Commanders' ownership group, led by Josh Harris, to express Trump's desire to have the domed stadium in the nation's capital bear his name. The new stadium is being built on the old RFK Stadium site that served as the team's home from 1961 to 1996.

    "That would be a beautiful name, as it was President Trump who made the rebuilding of the new stadium possible," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told ESPN on Friday night via email.

    Leavitt declined to answer additional questions, but the senior White House source told ESPN: "It's what the president wants, and it will probably happen."
