Trump has entered the Querencia Phase of his presidency

It is right and fitting that the president of the United States give a commencement address to a service academy’s graduating class," Daniel Barkhuff and William Burke wrote in Wedesday's edition of the paper. "It is also right and fitting that citizens of the democracy for which these graduates will soon be charged with protecting point out the personal cowardice, narcissism and incompetency of the current president."

Barkhuff and Burke, who work a Veterans for Responsible Leadership, wrote of the sacrifices made by various Naval Academy graduates, such as Sen. John McCain, over the years.

"Contrast this to the personal and professional honor of the sitting president of the United States, who time and again makes small choices guided by self-interest, ego, impulse and immediate self-gratification," they wrote. "He could never do what we ask our U.S. Naval Academy graduates to do. He is a physical coward, a liar and no leader at all.

So what?

Those guys are protecting the personal cowardice, narcissism and incompetence of the country who elected Trump leader. So what - there’s this one guy who’s president who isn’t the leader these geniuses want him to be. They’re not protecting him - they’re protecting the genius people and the genius system and the genius country who made him our leader.

Trump is just an excuse to blame someone else for who we are, and if the moral leaders of our military need to do that too, well, they’re probably living in the right country.

And what a great opportunity for us to get behind these geniuses who think it’s about this one person and not about the entire country who elected him, and make ourselves feel better by not noticing that they’re morally righteous geniuses like us who don’t even notice our own self-delusions, and who want to make it all about him, and not about us.

Ok, if those are the cards you’ve got, I wish you luck, ‘merica .

1. Empower the American Voter to Ensure Responsive Government. We must protect every citizen’s right to vote, safeguard our election infrastructure from hostile actors and put an end to partisan redistricting.

2.Strengthen Our Nation’s Ethics Laws to Fight Special Interests. We must end the revolving-door in Washington and rein in the influence of high-powered Washington insiders, lobbyists and big-money donors – and the special interests that are driving Washington’s agenda.

3.Fix Our Broken Campaign Finance System to Combat Big Money Influence. We must break the stranglehold on our democracy by wealthy and well-connected campaign donors by empowering everyday Americans and ending the scourge of unaccountable “dark money” unleashed by Citizens United.

Within a few days, both Brazile and Warren walked their statements all the way back. Brazile now says she found “no evidence” the primary was rigged. Warren now says that though there was “some bias” within the DNC, “the overall 2016 primary process was fair.”
