Will Trump Ever Shut Up?

So, Trump goes on his Truth Social app this past weekend and rants against Bill Maher, who said on his TV show that the FBI raid ‘saved’ Trump’s political career.

And what does Trump say in response? He takes Maher seriously and goes into a long-winded kvetch about how the FBI raid was an ‘assault on liberty and very bad for our country, which is incredibly angry right now.’

The country’s incredibly angry? I drove several hundred miles this weekend through bucolic country in three New England states and all those incredibly angry people were lined up at every soft-serve ice cream and take-out place that I passed.

What Trump still doesn’t realize is that if you never shut up, sooner or later people just tune you out. I mean, how many times can you listen to anyone saying the same goddamn thing over and over again?

There was a large billboard somewhere in New Hampshire carrying an ad for a local company that was looking to hire help at $21 an hour. That’s forty grand to stand in front of a machine and stuff what comes out of the machine into a carton which will then be taken into the warehouse by another guy driving a forklift who’s probably getting paid fifty grand a year.

I think Maher’s probably right. Since everyone has a job that’s paying a lot more than minimum wage, Trump needs something else…
