From the Meidas Touch

To start with Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy, first:

So I guess serving on the House Financial Services Committee (which mostly relates to banking and financial markets) doesn’t automatically make you qualified to be Secretary of Transportation. Or, a FOX News talking head. Or, a wannabe MAGA reality TV star. Wait, I already knew that.

The problems that Secretary Duffy was talking about, weren’t even issues in early January and now these blackouts and lack of power at some of our largest airports, like in Newark, New Jersey, are becoming routine. I guess the Secretary can blame Elon Musk and DOGE for cuts to the Federal Aviation Administration… but President Trump created DOGE.

What was really easy to predict as far as the self-inflicted damage because of President Trump’s global trade war… the consequences were not just easy to predict, but the President retreating on that as well, and then trying to claim victory. Again, you don’t need to a psychic to see any of these things happening. Just have a bit of what’s very in short supply in America, (and I’m not talking about dolls) which is commonsense. I guess commonsense is also 1 of Donald Trump’s trade war victims.
