Millions of artificial intelligence robots are being installed in nearly every workplace, thanks to the new AI billionaires. Other than the fact that they are such blood-sucking greedheads, why have today’s multibillionaires, high-tech barons of artificial intelligence (AI), become so despised by so many grassroots Americans? By “so many,” I mean they’ve sparked a hell-raising mass revolt,…

SO. Would Trump like Jeff Bezos to re-boot the Apprentice on Amazon Prime? SURE he would. He has obviously been obsessing about that since Bezos mentioned it. BUT. Not the way Bezos thinks.

Bezos is planning his Amazon Prime reboot to star Don JUNIOR. Um. Really? If Bezos thought that would warm the cockles of Daddy's heart, he don't KNOW Daddy, DO he?

NOBODY upstages The Donald. Not even his kids. Every time a reporter praises Junior, he says, "Shhhh. Don't get me in trouble." Bezos got Junior in a whole lot of trouble.

How do we know that? Junior was NOT invited along on the China trip, even though Eric was. And when Daddy was asked at the presser Thursday if he was going to Junior's wedding, he said he might be too busy to attend. WOW. He has time for a UFC cage fight. Time go golf. But not time for his son's WEDDING?

Daddy is furious with jealousy. And he wants to reclaim The Apprentice as his very own. Trump resembles no fictional character better than the LOTR dragon Smaug. Hoarding his treasure. Flaming anyone who tries to take it. And destroying everything around it, or letting it go to ruin, rather than letting anyone else profit from it at all.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Would Trump rather be back on TV screaming "You're FIRED!" on the Apprentice? You bet.

Trump is clearly bored with being President. Nothing is going his way now. The world leaders have figured out how to box him in and isolate him, and work around him. The Republican party is no longer handing him whatever he wants, and are now they are revolting. (Yes, I know, they were revolting people even before this LOL)

And he doesn't know WHAT the hell to do about Iran - and Cuba and Greenland no longer look like easy pickings. Becoming world emperor has already slipped through his grasp.

Plus, the job is killing him. He has health issues and just cannot keep up. But he is also SCARED of being killed. He has too many enemies, and he is afraid the American people are going to rise up against him, again, too. He is obsessed with his Ballroom bunker, and now even plans to put drones and snipers on the roof to fend US off.

But Congress is dragging his feet on funding his private DHS army of federal agents to protect him. The states won't allow the National Guard to take up arms against our own people.

Annnnnnd ........... it looks like he won't be able to get his slush fund, to buy back his Proud Boy and Oathkeeper gangs to protect him either.

He's tired. He's cranky. He's scared. It's just no FUN any more.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

HOWEVER.

Trump is in a shit load of financial trouble. His insider trading has been exposed. His business ventures are all tanking. The big donors don't want to give him money, because he isn't delivering what they expected from him. He did not even sign the big AI deal that was announced for yesterday. With no explanation.

Even his fundraising is failing, especially after his cellphone scam. People are finally getting phones, but they are cheap gold plastic covered older models of existing phones. And the flag decals on them have only 11 stripes.

Meanwhile, he apparently owes the IRS over a hundred million dollars. He still owes multi-million dollar fines to New York over his Stormy Daniels/Election interference/Business fraud case that ended in 34 felony counts, and for the E Jean Carroll case, too. As soon as he steps out of office - OR IS THROWN OUT OF OFFICE, he could be arrested for contempt of court - perhaps even sent to jail.

Because even his reptile brain must realize that American politicians and the American courts are not going to make the mistake again of letting him off the hook. After his January 6th attempted coup, everyone figured if they just let him retire to Florida to play golf, all the chaos and division he created would just go away. Nobody wanted to make a martyr out of him for the weirdos, racists and extremists to rally around again.

But instead of gratefully accepting the gift he was given, he took it as permission to go on revenge. And here we are. We are not going to make that mistake again. And he knows it.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

BUT WAIT - THERE'S MORE. Not only was he never made to pay for the Justice Department Investigations that resulted in evidence of his relationship with Russia, and his illegal possession of Classified documents, he was never made to pay for the crimes he was impeached over.

And so many questionable things have been piling up since he got back into office, not the least of which is the millions he has made on stock trades involving corporations he has had official dealings with.

Todd Blanche is stalling retribution from the EPSTEIN Files, too. But retribution is coming. No matter what he does, that information WILL come out.

Blanche just proved he does not have the power that he and Trump thought the DOJ would give them. The $10 billion lawsuit failed, and so has the $1.776 slush fund and the attempt to shield Trump, his family, and his businesses from the IRS. Blanche's pre-emptive pardon for TAX FRAUD FAILED.

And THAT was the crime that took down "the late great Al Capone," as Trump calls him, with such admiration. THAT is what Trump fears the MOST.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

So here he is. STUCK. Just like Midas - stuck in a gold-plated hell of his own making.

There is NO way out of this Iran mess. New reports are revealing that he and Hegseth did NOT reveal the vast numbers of planes and weapons we lost when Iran took out ALL of our bases in the Mideast, and it looks like Hegseth depleted our stockpiles to an alarming level.

President Xi refused to help, insulted America, and immediately invited Putin in to make new deals. The Arab prince and his allies refuse to help him, either. Our former NATO allies - and all our other allies - are making new alliances of their own. And Netanyahu has destroyed his what was left of his credibility.

So Trump is just spinning his wheels, helplessly, stalling for time. Staring morosely at his bunker. Striking out at everyone around him. Desperately grasping for every last cent that he can.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Trump's best days were the days he was on The Apprentice. Everything was done for him. All he had to do was take the escalator down to the studio boardroom NBC built for him, read the teleprompter, and be his worst self. He got to BE the Donald Trump he imagined himself to be. That he had worked all his life to convince the world he actually WAS. He was a celebrity who got the worship and praise and adulation he really wanted. Everyone SMILED when they saw him. They were delighted to bask in his glow.

Now everybody hates him. He knows that. It used to be the most fun of all forcing people who hated him to smile at him and give him praise. But now EVERYBODY hates him. And he knows he cannot trust anybody at all. Not even his own family. Melania is long gone. With Barron. Ivanka is nowhere to be seen. Neither is Tiffany. Jared and the boys want to be their own men. Not even his grandkids seem to be allowed in his presence any more. As for Kai, she recently pleaded for everyone to ignore her last name and love her for herself. She hasn't been seen since.

Everybody hates him. Worse. They are no longer afraid of him. They are LAUGHING at him.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Why is Trump obsessing every day about who to hand the presidential succession to, Rubio or Vance? We are not even at the midterms yet. Trump not seem to care at ALL about the midterms. Why is he obsessing over 2028?

Maybe he desperately wants a deal. Perhaps he is signally he wants one of them to come to him with a way out. To let him step down. To pardon every single thing he and his family and his businesses have done. To wipe the slate clean and set him up for the wealthy lifestyle he wants at Mar-a-Lago. With perpetual Secret Service level security.

So he can just go back to being the celebrity he was on The Apprentice. When everybody loved him and wanted to bask in his glow.

It was World Bee Day this week. Hence this verse.

Underneath my garden shed

Each year the bumble bees

Have made their nest while overhead

The rubbish rises by degrees

The deep fat fryer that packed up

The fan that gave up in the heat

The broken handled china cups

The broken garden seat

And then the Amazonian waste

Of cardboard boxes that were trees

Once, ere Jeff Bezos got the taste

For wealth that brought us to our knees

How many times will I have read

“We’ve found something that you might like”

He’s trying to get in my head

I wish he would get on his bike

But underneath the garden shed

The bees have made their simple nest

They come and go and bring no dread
