Most of us normal people regularly ask the question, “What is it going to take to get Trumpists to turn against him?”  Thousands of lost jobs from his trade war didn’t do it; his sucking up to Vladimir Putin and other despots didn’t do it; North Korea caught building more nukes didn’t do it; roller coaster markets didn’t do it; his continuous lying didn’t do it;  his globally embarrassing performance at the Paris Armistice Day ceremony didn’t do it; not showing up for Veterans’ Day ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery didn’t do it; his incessant sophomoric tweeting didn’t do it; 22 indictments, 5 guilty please, and 8 convictions of his cronies didn’t do it;  it’s seems that NOTHING gets through.

Until yesterday.  Yesterday, Trump, while visiting wildfire ravaged California with Gavin Newsom and Jerry Brown,  Trump babbled really stupid shit about Finland and raking forest floors.  He made these idiotic statements on national television in the wake of thousands of destroyed homes and businesses, over 70 confirmed deaths and more than A THOUSAND people missing.  Apparently, we’ve found the limit; doing that is what it takes to turn Trumpists against him.  Kirk Ellsworth, whose family suffered catastrophic losses in the destruction of Paradise, California, responded to Trumps idiocy, saying:

“My kids lost everything. I voted for him – and now? He can kiss my red ass.  What he said was ridiculous. It hurts my heart. A lot of us voted for him and he [talks] down to us?”

There you have it.  Apparently for Trumpists to see the light, they (and their families) have to suffer catastrophic personal losses before the scales fall from their eyes so they can see the light.  Such is the totality of the delusions of the Trumpist hoard.

I’m not going to comment on Trump’s visit to wildfire-ravaged California beyond saying this is the latest episode of Trump holding the position of number one global embarrassment.  What an idiot.  In his own words:

On forest management:

“You’ve got to take care of the floors. You know the floors of the forest, very important. You look at other countries where they do it differently and it’s a whole different story.”

“I was with the president of Finland and he said, ‘We have a much different—we’re a forest nation.’ He called it a forest nation, and they spent a lot of time on raking and cleaning and doing things. And they don’t have any problem.  And when it is, it’s a very small problem, so I know everybody is looking at it to that end and it’s going to work out, it’s going to work out well.”

On climate:

“Maybe it contributes a little bit. The big problem we have is management.”

“No. No. I have a strong opinion: I want great climate, we’re going to have that.”

Again, this guy is an idiot.  ‘Nuff said.
