Caveat emptor (buyer beware) must be ringing through many Republican politicians’ heads. The electorate may be forgiven for their disinterest in anything beyond the dollar in their pocket. But senators and congresspersons don’t have that excuse for their wholehearted support for Trump, knowing full well his – ahem – idiosyncrasies and his mental deterioration from last time round.
Now that he has gone full tonto (= crazy) with appointments that might seem extreme in a black comedy more than a few will be regretting their choice.
What follows are jumbled astro-thoughts since it is not clear whether Trump will get a carte blanche to appoint whatever deplorable he fancies.
Matt Gaetz for one in as Attorney General, previously described as a person of moral turpitude, who was on the hook for sex trafficking, allegations of sexual misconduct, illicit drug use and other alleged ethical breaches. Born 7 May 1982, he is a Sun Taurus with Venus in Aries in an ‘enthusiastic’ opposition to Mars and a stubborn Saturn Pluto in Libra. Tr Saturn Neptune opposing his Mars from this April onwards into 2026 will present him with failure and setbacks. His relationship chart with Trump has a high tension, prone to outbursts composite Sun square Saturn Uranus T with a bitterly resentful, dominating Mars Pluto conjunction square Mercury.
Like several of the relationship charts with Trump 2026 is showing up as flashing-red-light time.
Pete Hegseth, alarming the generals in (possibly) as Defence Secretary is also facing an explosive 2026 with Trump. Ditto Tulsi Gabbard, pro-Russian seemingly by inclination in as Intelligence will find relations with Trump stormy in 2025 and worse in 2026.
Ditto Robert F Kennedy Jnr, and Susie Wiles, and John Thune, and the 1853 Republican Party – all show up 2026 as a year of panicky failure vis a vis Trump.
The Inauguration chart would certainly back that up with a blocked Solar Sun moving to conjunct the Pluto and a sagging popularity with SA Saturn conjunct the Venus. Not terminal but highly stressed and stuck.
When former UK Prime Minister Harold Macmillan was once asked what was the greatest challenge for a statesman, he replied: ‘Events, dear boy, events’. It may be off-the-wall internal policies or outside happenings but as with the UK political scene it may be that – stretching a point – what has been voted in recently under Pluto in Capricorn belonged to an old era and was not designed to make it across the transition into what lies ahead.
Interesting times.
