Tales From the Idiocracy - 4.7.2025: Let's All Take a Breath
In this week’s episode of Tales From the Idiocracy, David Blackmon, WACV 93.1 FM radio legend Greg Budell and his sidekick Pamela Dubuque take you on a 2-hour tour of both the lunacy of the American Idiocracy that is today’s Democrat party and all the glorious WINNING happening in and for America under Donald J. Trump’s presidency.
Topics Covered Include:
Markets' reaction to Trump tariffs;
Netanyahu at the White House to offer to end all tariffs on US - what effect will that have?;
EU now reaching out for zzzzzz "zero for zero tariffs" deal negotiations - why Trump might put them off;
Senate passes budget reconciliation bill and nobody notices;
Senate Bill does NOT include border security provisions;
Speaking of border security, crossings for March were down by over 95% year-over-year;
Trump meets with Dodgers at the White House - absolutely hilarious ceremony;
Michelle Obama's podcast is a huge flop. No surprise there;
The U.S. billiards "women's" championship features two men playing in the finals;
Irish University College Cork wants to train hairdressers to lecture customers about climate change;
And More!
Enjoy the Show!
That is all.
Sure, let’s roll with your absurd thesis: Donald Trump, in a fit of neural misfiring, declares “Liberation Day,” and single-handedly torpedoes the entire American stock market.
The Dow Jones isn’t dipping — it’s base-jumping.
And yet, somehow, the real villains are the Democrats?
Let’s be clear: we didn’t install a manifestly unstable reality-TV autocrat in the White House — a man whose greatest skill appears to be vaporizing middle-class retirement accounts with one poorly punctuated press conference.
The irony, of course, is that people like you will go to your graves believing you're right, no matter how loudly reality disagrees. That’s because you’re not interested in truth — you're in the business of retailing comfort. You sell narratives that flatter preconceptions, not facts that challenge them.
And that’s what this blog really is, in the end — not a platform for insight, but a fossil record of the “thinkers” who helped steer the car straight into the wall.
Another great start to the week. Thank you.
