Kansas MAGA Senator Roger Marshall was upbeat and optimistic Tuesday morning, telling Fox News’s Maria Bartiromo that people just feeling better about the economy back home in his state would add 1 percent to the GDP alone so it’ll be easy to get to 4 percent annual growth. Those glum bastards at the OECD saying their 2025-2026 outlook “projects global growth slowing from 3.3 percent in 2024 to 2.9 percent in both 2025 and 2026. The slowdown is expected to be most concentrated in the United States, Canada, Mexico and China, with smaller downward adjustments in other economies,” can’t just chin up and turn their forecast models’ frowns upside down.

Marshall also told Bartiromo that cutting Medicaid is going to make Medicaid stronger, which might be missing some context since they’re not *actually* cutting Medicaid, or maybe it isn’t.

Context is important, according to Joni Ernst, whose context got cut off by the elevator door as she tried to explain why she joked about how people facing Medicaid cuts are going to die anyway.

Joni was at least cheerful about it on Tuesday. And so was Don Jr as he explained how exciting it is for the crypto industry to have the freedom from burden of messy regulations and scrutiny that could hamper the free flow of foreign money to “stablecoins” and “memecoins” like $TRUMP.

In conclusion, life’s challenges are all about attitude. And the context of them.
