Trump readies US troops for ground invasion in Mexico to go after drug cartels

Trump thrives in mediatic chaos and a lot of things going on around. His worst fear is ... a calm boring period, be it in domestic or international politics. Because then, people may start asking real questions.

As long as can flood the headlines with whatever he wants, people will be busy with those. And not ask for example why he pardoned a guy who pretty much gave him 2 Billons $ ? Or what's up with that Epstein list ?

He needs however bigger and bigger things to keep the show on.

He's probably the first politician in history to carry out every single one of his campaign promises in the first 5 minutes of getting into power... Trump does big things, huge things, the bigliest things ever... That's not in itself problematic, unless you think the things he's doing are all bad.

The chaos can be glorious, like the time when he informed Israel, Iran and the rest of the world that their war was over and a ceasefire had been agreed upon seemingly without their knowledge.

It feels like reality now is just an ongoing season of the Trump Show. He knows how to seize every moment to make himself the centre of everything. One surreal example is Trump warmly welcoming kier starmer to his residence in Scotland. The Prime Minister being treated like a guest in his own country!

Wasn't one of his big campaign promises to release the Epstein files? That hasn't happened in any meaningful sense.

America First ? Spending cuts ? Looks like people already forgot about DOGE !

Edit: Wow - I've just checked DOGE website - no updates since mid-August. Amazing
