The "fallacy of the last move" is a strategic error where someone believes their final action will decisively settle a conflict or achieve a desired outcome, often overlooking the potential for counter-reactions or further escalation from the other side. It assumes that the last move in a sequence of actions is the only one that matters, ignoring the possibility of an ongoing process with unpredictable consequences.

Excellent point....in reality part of Cheeto's move was to distract everyone from his terror war on immigrants and citizens and his terrible budget bill

Well apparently Trump and his minions are meeting in the meeting room. Can you just imagine what they are all cooking up?

None of them has a clue about cooking. They are poring over takeout menus.

I am worried about that. If that happens I am pushing my son and son-in-law into Canada or I will break both their legs. I also have a step son and step son in law that I will tell them to go to Canada. I have family there.

Here's a thought - would they take me a 66 year old with 2 spinal fusions, bad back, osteoporosis and depression? Man, what I could do to them.

I sincerely hope not--I do NOT understand any circumstances want to lose my nephews, or other loved ones to this insanity. This inevitability, is a lose-lose-lose scenario.

Yes & to look like a strong man instead of the coward he is. We all know what's in this bill....first & foremost the tax cuts for the rich which make my stomach ache

Finally! Been waiting to read anywhere what I've been thinking.

rRump is expert at using distraction... he has proven again and again. But now he needs to distract the biggest fuck-yous of his entire life, to complete his ascension to ruling his feifdom...

Plus the destraction he has chosen is also the next step to "legally" send occuping forces to every liberal city, take action against the people his A-I data collection systems identify as posting, airing, publicly commenting - declaring any facts or opinions contrary to the preferred narratives.

War!

The plans of tRump's backers and cult including Putin and Netanyahu and who else, where?

Anyone with any sense knew " America first" really meant America alone. Why would our allies who convict 47 has continually blasted & accused, be with us now? I fear for our military but I never thought our military would turn on us, but with drunks & thugs put in charge of them where are they to go?
