Is one mother effin POS

I can’t wait until his stain is removed from our country

are a hammer smashing the integrity of our system in general. The entire shtick has been a deliberate and concerted effort to compromise and erode a broad field of American institutions, values and beliefs. Trump is pouring his well-honed, corrosive acid all over this nation and missing that contributes to our peril.

I think it is clear that he knows that we know he is lying. To assume he doesn't, misses the modus operandi of the real strategy and enables it even more. We might say, "Oh, look! See! The Dotard is lying again! More lies!" Well, that would be fine and dandy if it was about the lies themselves and not the impact they are having. The Oz head speaks like it does and the guy behind the curtain is pulling the levers, pushing the buttons and yelling into the horn.

It is not the fact that he is lying it is the reason that matters most. Once we hone in on that, then the induced chaos and conditioning will start to stand out, which then turns the tables and reveals the two-edged attack. This is not just about his base being manipulated, that's easy. The expertise is in what many might not expect. When you look, it stands out.

We have a covert attempt to usurp and take our system over and it is really in plain site. If that is the case, it is truly expertise in manipulation of historical proportions.

and so are we. When I think of all the countries we have interfered with, it is no wonder we are experiencing a taste of our own medicine. News black-outs, corrupt governments, history is full of empires coming and going. And we're such a young country. It only took a couple of hundred years, and here we are. The thing is, people have lived through much, much, worse...and so will we.

You know, I hadn't thought of that in relation to the current situation. Thanks.

Yes, the karma is coming home to roost in a sense. It is a taste of our own medicine when you think about the interference in other countries like Latin America, etc., etc. I was trying to remember a book along those lines that I read. Ah, I think it was Confessions of an Economic Hit Man?

Yes, it has been a short run and obviously, democracy, (as an experiment and idea) is a fragile thing.

think his name was Perkins? Anyway...thinking about what billions of people endured on this planet before I came along is very comforting to me. That and looking up at the stars, planets, galaxy's..contemplating the universe...things that make me feel so insignificant, give me the power to deal. Weird.

and evidence of their own superiority.

"Let them eat lies!"

Soldiers are expendable. They are bound to get damaged in war.

Oh, wait! What war?

Oh well, doctors will fix them. Brain cells grow back, don't they?

Oh wait! They don't grow back!

Oh well, they will come home as heroes, and be looked after for the rest of their lives!

Oh, wait . . . that's not going to happen either.

But I don't get why he lied about it because I really don't think there is much he would desire more than a war with Iran. Maybe he believed it would have more impact if it leaked out? I don't know. I do know that he is the most dangerous person in the world.

If he is speaking, he is lying.

It is all he does!

It is all that there is, forever.

From the HBO hit show Boardwalk Empire. About a much smarter Atlantic City criminal politician.
"Mr. Thompson is a part of everything. He is in the sky and sea. He is in the dreams of children at night. He is all that there is, forever."

Plus troops don't make him money unless they're staying at one of his resorts, so why should he give a shit how many die on his watch.
