It's Thursday! That means Greg Dworkin is on his way out the door for the weekend! That's OK. Congress is gone all month.

Which might be why Democrats in that body aren't doing what the latest "centrist" pundit says they ought to be doing… which is, of course, praising Trump.

But under no circumstances must you hand it to Trump!

The "idea," we gather, stems from the Old School Media Playbook, which instructs that if a president says it and then it happens, it's a "win." Even if it's an obvious disaster. But this particular "idea" also rests on multiple false assumptions. Like that Democrats have no electoral support. (They do.) Or that Trump is popular. (He's not.) Or that his "policies" are wise and well-considered. (They're not.) Or that members of his party benefit politically from his leadership. (They don't.)

Nope. He's the same guy he's always been. Plotting a coverup of his sex scandals. Firing people who won't do his dirty work, or lie for his benefit. You know, the usual.

Meanwhile, in Gotham… where Eric Adams is already corrupted by Trump, Andrew Cuomo seeks Trump's counsel. And adds one of the least-respected consultants in the country to his team of duds, which is sure to make things worse.

But he might not even be the dumbest Cuomo of the day!

On the Jeffrey Epstein front: Jeffrey Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein!

Is there anything that can make this worse? Sure! Woody Allen!

While we're on the topic of public pervos, there's still more (mysteriously less-than-disastrous) news about MAGA trainwreck Cory Mills.

Why is this news less than disastrous, anyway? IOKIYAR, as the olds used to say, when they were young.
