Most politicians lie to varying degrees. It’s what they do. But what Donald Trump has brought to to the craft of perjury the world has never seen before on the stage of the U.S. presidential bully pulpit.
Never.
Not even from Richard Nixon.
And here’s the ironic thing—the upper one percent didn’t need this from Donald Trump. They should have been the adults in the room with the poor white people who don’t know any better. They already exclusively held the vast majority of the country’s assets.
But in the end greed begats greed. How sad.
Bernie Sanders has that part right on the button, the other stuff he promotes to the youth vote is a bit over the top. If you doubt me study the tax codes of Sweden and Denmark of which Bernie Sanders would go far beyond in his plans for America. He needs to drop out of the race this Saturday… BTW even though I have serious concerns about Joe Biden.
So what happens when the world finally realizes the POTUS is a pathological liar with the exception of white people in places like Oklahoma, West Virginia, Louisiana, Montana, etc?
They lose confidence in what he says. They finally come to realize he’s nothing more than a sketchy grifter with extremely tiny little hands who went bankrupt five times before he became POTUS.
This video above is from Scaramucci from February 29th in relation to the first of several ill-fated pressers by Donald Trump in relation to his handling of the coronavirus.
I sincerely hope if you’re a poor person, regardless of color, you did some hedging of sorts with your Donald Trump 401k three or four weeks ago. I hope you’re not one of these stupid blind lemming types who actually believed he has any financial acumen whatsoever. He doesn’t. He inherited $414 million from his daddy Fred Trump. If not for the inheritance—none of us would have ever heard of this prick with the unusually small hands and you know what.
And not that I’m a psychologist or anything, but I’ve always thought it’s that very tiny you know what which causes Trump to lie and brag endlessly. In reality…he’s still just a spoiled insecure rich kid who never grew up.
Now…the markets may jump back tomorrow with the Mitch McConnell plan getting passed today. But I hope a lesson has been learned. Donald Trump has no idea what he’s doing. The markets have been juiced with extra liquidity from the tax cuts and from companies with high market caps who have been involved in stock buy back plans.
Donald Trump was just a willing stooge for much smarter people who’ve made a killing using him.
I hope you covered your goals and made some money to put away given what the unemployment numbers are going to be down the road.
I was all set to write my tribute to Tom Brady going to Tampa Bay, but then I saw how the markets have reacted to Mitch McConnell’s weak bailout proposal to the coronavirus meltdown created by his puppet Donald Trump.
I’ll come back and write about Tom Brady later in the week.
I’m watching the markets this morning and seeing how the day goes.
The two things which drive the markets are fear and greed. But the markets also want to see some reasonable math.
One trillion dollars isn’t going to cleanup this most recent Donald Trump oil spill. The $30 billion spent to bailout the farmers is chump change compared to the most current mess created by this idiot.
It’s a $23 trillion dollar economy which basically has been eviscerated by the person who wrote the Art of the Deal. Are you tired o winning yet, America? I look at the math this way…best case scenario what Trump has done has killed one quarter of the economy. I would think serious investors at the minimum need to see Mitch McConnell and the people who own him put somewhere around $3-4 trillion on the table in the next two to three weeks.
I’ll be back to write about Tom Brady this week-end.
This was on February 27th …I believe before The Perjurer in Chief had Dr. Birx up near the podium with him so it appeared every f–king word coming out out of his mouth wasn’t a lie or misstatement. Let’s go to the video.
Okay. So yesterday—I was picking up some take out Chinese in Edmond and there was this new big white kid manning the counter I’d never seen before. I walk up to him and hear he’s got Rush Limbaugh on a small radio underneath the counter.
I smiled to myself and said to myself, “Don’t do this, Mike”
But then I said to him…”You guys are still open I see. You know– in eleven states they closed dining rooms in restaurants earlier today.”
He gives me this go to hell look and says,”All eleven are in pussy blue states, mister. We won’t be closing.”
So…I say, “What are you going to do if Governor Stitt orders all restaurants closed except for a drive thru—you guys don’t have a drive thru window?”
He says, “I’m a firm believer in the 2nd Amendment. The state won’t be closing us down. Trust me. Coronavirus spreading… fake news. We won’t be closing our doors.”
I replied, “Well you know, I heard on Rush Limbaugh yesterday Bill Gates has the patent on the vaccine for the coronavirus for birds….and I’m hearing from my more reliable sources—he may sell that one for $40 billion to Trump if they can make it compatible to humans.”
He says, “Yeah, killer. I heard something like that too. Trump is the man. Bill Gates is right there with Soros as scum. F–k ’em both.”
This video was a week ago just as the NBA was closing down their season indefinitely.
Compared to the rogue grifter Trump he seems more poised and realistic at the moment than anything we’ve observed from the POTUS before yesterday.
I just observed Trump giving his mid-day report with his psychiatric staff circled around him… and I have to say he appears more hinged than per his normal. Maybe the nice looking older female doctor (Dr. Birx) standing on his rear left flank is having a calming effect along with his med applications.
Anyway… I wanted to put the Mark Cuban video up just to reference how a real billionaire pro sports franchise owner reacts when the health of his employees is at stake. His concern seemed heartfelt and sincere, two things which have been sorely missing until yesterday from Trump’s litany of missteps.
I wonder if Mark Cuban would be interested in being on Joe Biden’s cabinet at some point.
So….is this what the world would look like if Bernie Sanders was to be elected and somehow get his Green Deal passed by the U.S. Senate?
Obviously…if you believe in science you realize there is climate change, but the real question is how does the world transition energy sources in an incremental manner which doesn’t do to the world economies as to what the coronavirus has done in less than two months.
As much as I’d like to blame the Pussy Grabber for everything, I can’t because that wouldn’t be honest or objective writing. Besides, he’s really only Mitch McConnell’s puppet.
China not burning coal during the past six weeks at its normal pace has been a boon for cleaning up the world’s atmosphere. If the world was to do the first thing in what was the Paris Climate Accord…the first thing which would help the world’s atmosphere is to get rid of coal as an energy source.
But you can’t go about this like crazy Bernie Sanders. This will require deft nuance, which BTW could have been helpful from Donald Trump the past month as he accelerated the virus in North America through his stupidity at his press conferences.
I would think you increase the role of natural gas and come to terms with how much you can and can’t do with solar, wind, nuclear, and electric…. and come to some realistic conclusions regarding energy, economies, and the world’s global carbon footprint.
Under my plan this doesn’t happen overnight or in one election. This happens where the world gradually and beyond my lifetime phases down the rate of which it uses oil to fuel the world economies.
So think about today in America. The airlines, which are a major abuser of carbon, are basically shut down. People in certain parts of the country are hunkered down in their homes not consuming products or services as they’ve watched the Dow go down by 30%.
The U.S. economy is the world’s largest consumer. So if you followed either Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warrens’ plans and you cratered the world’s largest economy where would you pay for all of your grandiose visions? Is this America we see this week your template?
This is too deep for Donald Trump. He doesn’t view the world like this. He sees the world in incremental units of pussy, McDonald’s hamburgers, kicked golf balls out of the rough, and snarky tweets.
This is why I thought Michael Bloomberg or Michael Bennett would have been good choices. This is an unusual time in our history when we need to pivot in a very well thought out manner.
So we sit and watch this week in America as the GOP Senate will grapple with their own version of TARP circa 2008. We’ll see what the the fifty-three GOP senators can agree with after they could have taken a major step to clean up the world over a month ago if they’d just had the balls to dump Donald Trump.
I have to wonder what thoughts are running through the minds of Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Lamar Alexander, Susan Collins, Cory Gardner and others as they’ve observed the complete abdication of U.S. presidential leadership in the past month.
It should be a week for a serious reflection for all Americans. But how ironic it is that the world’s greatest climate change denier in Donald Trump has done much more than Obama ever did for the atmosphere simply by helping to crater the world’s largest consuming economy.
Okay. If you’re a Donald Trump cult member and you somehow stumbled on my blog….peace.
I’m done with calling white people in the southern half of the United States deplorable or deplorables. We’re all just human. We all f–k up here and there.
That’s not me. I’m going to try extremely hard to not repost the Dave Chapelle video of him lecturing poor white people who don’t understand the implications of the current United States tax code on how they should have voted in 2016.
Me…being that way on my blog to you isn’t cool. It’s not human. It’s the very thing I’ve repeatedly admonished our human junk bond POTUS for …for over three and half years. It’s not Christian.
It’s been a bad month for you. Even worse for our entire nation as Vlad Putin has had his way with us in every imaginable way possible with only a $70 billion defense budget and a modest economy at his disposal.
He couldn’t have done this by himself. Ne needed you to vote for a washed up reality television star to be the 45th POTUS…and you did it.
I’ve been saving this interview for a day just like today as the Dow was at one point this morning down 2,700 points a mere twelve hours after the Fed dropped the prime interest rate to literally zero.
Scaramucci is a Harvard Business School grad and former Fox commentator who has his own hedge fund. Unfortunately for Scaramucci… he was Donald Trump’s communications director for eleven days. That will forever be a black mark on his resume as it will be for Sean Spicer, Sarah Huckabee-Sanders, and Stephanie Grissom.
But to his credit—he’s rid himself of the stain of Donald Trump and become an interesting observer of Trump and his cult-like followers the rest of us call ‘The Base.’ It’s not a base, it’s a cult, but if these people want to delude themselves and call it a base what the f–k ever.
Say or think what you want about the coronavirus which is on the cusp of becoming a 9/11 type of economic meltdown, but the real virus in play is the Trump-virus. As in this person in no way has the skill set and human characteristics for the job of the U.S. presidency.
The only thing Donald Trump should have ever been president of is the Atlantic City Strip Bar Owners Association. Not complicated to understand unless you’re a Trump cult member.
At one point this morning the market was down 27% in equity value since February 16th as this president has bumbled around like the poser we outside of the cult knew he was/is.
Big effing surprise the guy who bankrupted himself at least five times we know of is on track again only this time with the greatest economy in the history of the world at his disposal.
Big effing surprise, eh.
A part of me wants to post the Dave Chappelle video about white people who aren’t smart enough to even vote in their self interest. But this isn’t the time for me to lack human compassion on my blog for these people. I won’t even call them deplorables either. See how I’ve grown?
Anyway…this is an excellent interview if you can handle some semblance of the truth.
Then there was Fed Chief Jerome Powell today announcing an interest rate cut yet… no one to date has still seen any coronavirus test kits from President Strangelove’s $22.5 trillion dollar economy which seems to be unable to do much of anything just yet with the exception of conducting completely bizarre press conferences.
It is truly like watching Inspector Clouseau interrogating the menkey and the blind menkey grinder while the bank is being robbed.
Putin and his cabinet must be having watch parties for every one of the Trump corona pressers with free vodka shots for those who attend.
Who would have thought just by getting Trump elected that Russia in three years would be able to reverse the historic implications of the Cold War without ever firing a shot or missile at the United States.
Bernie Sanders needs a huge game changer tonight in what could be his first and final debate with Joe Biden. Neither one of these guys made my top three Dem list. They’re both too damn old and both have significant baggage.
Bernie is an open socialist quasi communist who’s never done much of anything while serving in the Senate. While Joe Biden has the horrific baggage of Hunter Biden attached to him like dead weight chained to his legs.
Michael Bennett would have been good. Amy Klobuchar is qualified. Michael Bloomberg would have been able to work both sides of the aisle of the Senate and get things done. But these are the Dems and we know they have this certain self imposed death wish element to their own party. So we’ll just have to see how this plays out in the coming months.
Bernie’s wife is Jane…so I was googling the old Jefferson Starship classic and low and behold I found this at the Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy.
What a win for me as I’m always trying to upgrade my own karaoke skill set.
If I were Bernie’s handlers tonight…I give him a couple of Viagras and play this video for him right before the debate. You know, maybe juice him up a little bit. What doess he have to lose at this point?
What a rock classic done beautifully by Gabriela Guncikova!
