Where was Mr. Pillow when Donald Trump really needed him?

Sigh.

This is much better. I love to fish. This will immediately get my mind off the peckerhead in southern Oklahoma. Good lord.

I’ve tried my best to not mention this person named Joe Exotic. He was actually talked about today on the Michael Smerconish show in relation to the coronavirus being transmitted in jail or prison settings.

What another proud moment for the state of Oklahoma to be connected to this person.

I only vaguely know the story where this person started a tiger park of sorts down by Wynnewood and I guess became some sort of cult figure for the Jerry Springer crowd.

This is a documentary film which I think was filmed by a UCO grad and has become a rage on Netflix for all the wrong reasons I’d assume, but again, I haven’t watched this film and don’t plan to in the future.

Jim Traber literally talked about this film for a week which I think is kind of sad given the numbers he has on his platform to speak to the Average Joe in Oklahoma.

I’m an animal lover. I can’t imagine me taking the time to watch this bullshit. I can’t believe a character like this and his story has so captivated the American public at a time I would think Americans would want to be inspired by the inherit goodness in people.

Yikes.

Usually there’s not much of value to glean from over there, but this evening a poster named Ash posted this video and it made my day.

Nice job, buddy.

What an exquisite song.

My father was a trial lawyer like the Jake Brigance character in the movie A Time To Kill. My dad was indeed a skilled courtroom orator. He had a natural ability to tell a story to a jury and make them like his client.

My dad basically became a street lawyer after graduating at the top of his law school class. He landed a job at a top tier firm in downtown Oklahoma City, but became bored after a year then set out on his own with his best friend to start a small practice.

They did everything… quite a bit of pro bono work as well. The common guy was who they basically represented. Working class people who needed a skilled voice in the courtroom by their side.

Being a lawyer is not glamorous. It’s brutal and debilitating at times dealing with your clients’ problems. To be able to do it for a long time you need have a true sense of empathy for the human condition or you will lose your mind.

My dad passed on August 23rd, 2016 and not a day since has passed in which I haven’t thought about my father and Donald Trump.

My father would despise Donald Trump for his lack of empathy towards others. He would not be able to connect to that coldness of heart which is Donald Trump.

But you pray at some point people will smarten up and do the right thing.

You pray and cling to the fervent hope there is good in all of us.

‘An embarrassing wreck of an insecure man’ is how former Republican conservative columnist George Will refers to Donald Trump.

I’ve never written this on my blog in those words.

I’ve called him a con artist, a pussy grabber, a racist Birther, a rogue, a hustler, a real estate grifter, a pathological liar, a buffoon with little nuance if any, a total human junk bond, a man with tiny little hands, but I’ve never necessarily described Donald Trump like the father of modern contemporary conservatism did in this piece in the Washington Post.

You’ll never hear a current Trump supporter ever cite George Will or William Buckley because either they don’t read or those sources won’t enable their views.

In fact Peggy Noonan, Tom Friedman, Mark Brooks, Kathleen Parker or any reputable columnists will never be cited as well.

Only the names Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity will come to their lips. All others are called RHINOs….Republicans In Name Only.

You’ll also never hear Trump supporters cite math, history, physics, economics, or science as important in deciphering their current views on the world.

Just the two freak show pundits…Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh.

You’ll also never hear a Trump supporter of late mention the names Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, Bush 41, Bush 43, John McCain or Mitt Romney with anything resembling warmth or admiration.

But of course…there was the one exception when the human embarrassment by the name of Mike Pence compared this Donald Trump to Teddy Roosevelt in an obvious act of kissing the emperor’s ring.

This is what you get in states like Oklahoma who put little into their educational value system as states. It’s very simple if you doubt my word.

Simply google the bottom fifteen states in our country as per to what they take from the federal government to stay afloat and what they contribute to the U.S. Treasury.

Some lessons die very hard in places like Oklahoma when you never come to grips with the reality and correlation of education to long term success.

I love Steven Schmidt.

He is correct. Have faith, make the right choice at the ballot box and this period of unfiltered debauchery and decadence from the Trump White House will hopefully be in our rear view mirror as a nation.

As a nation we have never been lower than perhaps the Civil War itself.

Be true to yourself in your convictions and be kind even to the Trump rabble. They weren’t always deplorables per se. Perhaps when this is over we can institute state Trump rehab centers where we will rehabilitate these people where we can perhaps at some point allow them to vote again in our national elections.

God bless America.

I can’t really even comment on this.

Sigh.

I’m almost certain this is how it happened. Trump watched this epic episode of George pretending to be a marine biologist…and the light switch went on in that tiny little mind of his.

“If George can be a marine biologist, then why can’t I become President of the United States?” Trump must have asked himself out loud.

Then…of course, Obama skewered him at the Correspondents Dinner…and the rest is history.

Some…become president because they believe they can do truly noble things to help others.

In Trump’s case…not a chance.

He just wanted to outdo George in pulling off the greatest lie of all-time.

Tell me I’m wrong.

I have my own theory on this. The George Costanza character and Donald Trump are both Queens guys in their collective hearts. My guess is…Trump was a huge Seinfeld fan and was duly impressed by the skill set George showed for lying out his ass.

Then Bannon came on the scene with his connection to the Seinfeld show and he encouraged Donald Trump to become the greatest liar the earth has ever seen. I mean…if these white people are stupid enough to believe it…is it really a lie?

We know Trump wasn’t smart enough to think of this himself. Connect the dots. It makes perfect sense.

World War II..never happened. Marshall Plan….never happened. NATO…fuck those deadbeats.

Obama born in Kenya…happened.

You have to give Trump and Bannon credit for correctly gauging the acumen of the average white voter in America.
