A Glaring Half-Truth

I generally don't comment on any of the Boy King's sound bite utterances - to do so could quickly become three full time jobs and might imperil the available bandwidth. Today is an exception. In a whistle-stop photo-op speech at a small business he managed to strike a nerve.

In his freshly minted populist/outside observer persona, he stated that "there's a limit to what government can do"... That's only half true, and Barry knows it. There's certainly a limit to the good government can do, but there's no apparent limit to the harm they can do.

Keep struttin' around in your new clothes, Mr. Emperor - you do more in five minutes to wake this nation up than I could in a lifetime...
