So muuch has happened sence I wrote to you last. I would feel more comfortable writing to you in Slovenian but my editors at fake news CNN say they want ferst draft to book in english.
Oh well.
Where do I start?
Last time i think wrote you Donalt has escaped being convicted by Bob Muueler for helping our close firend Putin beat Crooked Hillary Clinton in election.
Then there was the impeechment trial when they said Donalt extorted the Ukarine for damming information on Hunter Biden.
It seams being POTUS and FLOTUS isn’t as easy as Donalt told me it wood be.
Now all of this weeth Donalt for not paying attention to caroonavirus and collapsing U.S. economy because he was too busy how they say trolling Adam Schif after he was found innocent by all except Mit Romney.
It seems like it Deuscth Bank all over again. Maybe worse. So messy.
There is good news though. Since Hope Hicks come back Donalt doesn’t bother me anymore for me to let him you know… touch me. Which is very good because this mean creepy Jared and Amazon woman Ivanka aren’t spying on me as they useually do.
My book editors at fake news CNN say if I do good job with diary manuscreept it will outsell any thing ever written by Bob Woodward.
They tell me if I write well me, Baron, and father Victhor will have enough money to flee back to Slovenia and have normal lives again.
So Diary… I ride my Peleton, dream of a day being back in Slovenia with my family and becoming simple Slovenian girl once again.
Unless Donald Trump decides to have another presser this week-end and demand the markets to open this week-end… I think I’ll take a break from him decimating the markets with his foolish behavior. almost fourth grade level behavior.
So–Tom Brady is going to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to ostensibly help the Bucs win the second Super Bowl in their franchise history.
Can he do this with a Tampa team which was 7-9 last season and a major disappointment for the second straight season?
I think he can because the Bucs have a great deal in place as a team which just needs an elite NFL quarterback to bring the pieces together..
The Bucs have Bruce Ariens as their head coach and if you don’t know…Ariens has twice won the NFL Coach of the Year Award and twice won a Super Bowl ring as an NFL assistant coach. This could be the second year in a row for an Andy Reid type to win the Super Bowl.
Check the head coaching box.
At wide receiver Tampa has both Mike Evans ans Chris Godwin which gives the GOAT a better set of targets than he had last season in New England with Edelman and whoever.
Check the wide receiver box.
This is a Tampa team from last year which moved the ball with Jameis Winston, but they were killed by his thirty interceptions of which seven went for a pick six the other way.
Check that box with six-time Super Bowl champ Tom Brady. The Greatest of All-Time.
As far as defense–the Bucs had one of the stingiest run defenses in the NFL, but again consider how many times Jameis Winston left them in bad spots with his thirty interceptions. The Tampa defense is anchored by All-Pro linebacker Shaq Barrett.
So check the stud linebacker box. BTW… Barrett played on the Denver Super Bowl team of several years ago so the Bucs have captains on both sides of the ball with a Super Bowl ring.
Check the intangible championship DNA box as well.
And the last box?
Next year’s Super Bowl is being played in Tampa Bay.
This is why I think the Bucs have a shot at being special next NFL if Donald Trump can pull his head out of his ass long enough to not ruin next fall’s NFL season.
Maybe, just maybe, pissing away an NFL season is the one thing his base of dysfunction won’t tolerate.
He has this thing for Peter Alexander of NBC News for sure. Since no one in his administration ever holds him accountable for being a pathological lying pussy chaser…. he seems to particularly rant against those in the press who calmly expose him as the punk liar he truly is on every imaginable level.
But there’s the Trump white base at home with their microwave popcorn chanting…”Fake news” with every Trump lie. It’s stunning.
He could care less about them, yet they’ve embraced him as their boy.
As soon as he gets behind the podium at one of his pressers which have taken the place of his rallies in some of the dumber locales in our country like Oklahoma…the markets literally begin dropping. Every time.
Dr. Birx should push him aside and take control of the pressers would be my take if I were Mitch McConnell and wanted to keep appointing federal judges for another four years.
I’m a fan of Michael Lewis. It started with me when I read his iconic book on the bond traders at Solomon Brothers titled ‘Liar’s Poker’. Since reading the book I’ve read everything he’s written book-wise.
This video above is after he wrote ‘The Flashboys’ in which he asserts the markets are rigged against the average investor. They’re especially rigged if four senators on the Senate Finance Committee are making prescient trades based on insider information…just saying.
Great for Oklahoma as eighty-five year old climate change denier Jim Inhoffe made the dubious Final Four. I’m sure in Oklahoma the science denier will easily be re-elected once again taking him into his nineties in the Senate even though his presence has done nothing to prevent Donald Trump from allowing the Saudis to do whatever they want with the independent oil producers in America.
The book Flash Boys goes into fascinating detail on how the market institutions have a built in edge against the average investor. It’s a great financial question? Are the markets inherently rigged like Vegas?
Of course they are… even if Warren Buffet wants to deny it.
The markets were interesting yesterday as investors guestimated oil had bottomed out at $20 dollar a barrel. Oil had its best ever day with West Texas crude getting back up to the $25 a barrel benchmark. But I’d be careful still with oil if you’re thinking bout buying into an oil ETF fund for one simple reason…there’s a mass overabundance of the commodity. Yesterday was just bottom feeding.
Both Devon and Continental had a nice little rebound day, but both are still a combined $150 billion below what their market value was maybe eight or nine years ago.
In closing, I almost fell out of my chair laughing today when Trump claimed he was very much against stock buy back plans which came in torrents after Mitch McConnell got his corporate tax cut passed.
Does anybody in America remember one instance of Donald Trump warning of the danger of stock buy back plans during the beer keg party at the White House the day the cuts were passed into law?
I’d love to hear when that happened from a Trump defender.
Never give a sucker an even break…and kick him when he’s down: The Donald Trump mantra.
Since I was a registered Republican from 1976 thru 2000 I can write this Op-Ed on my modest little underground blog from an objective perch. Not only was I a member of the Republican Party, but in nine out of the eleven presidential elections I’ve vote in…I voted for the GOP candidate nine times with John McCain in 2016 being the last time I did as such.
In my first presidential election in 1976…I was almost banned from my family by my grandmother Maureen for voting for Gerald Ford in spite of the Nixon pardon. The fact is…she never looked at me the same after that vote. So don’t think for a second this is a liberal writing this Op-Ed.
And, of course, I voted for Obama twice and the irony there is that as the years have passed both John McCain and Mitt Romney are the only two Republicans of recent memory beyond Bush 41 and Reagan I have any respect for of historical consequence.
Bush 43 is a conundrum for me. I cursed him during his time in office, but as the years have passed and after reading a biography he wrote about his father…I view him with much more warmth compared to the human junk bond by the name of Donald Trump.
I guess at no point whatsoever do contemporary Republicans have a threshold of individual shame. Trump in no way got it wrong when he said he could shoot someone in broad daylight and it wouldn’t bother his base.
It doesn’t matter to them what line of horrific he crosses as long as he pushes their buttons with his predictable schitck.
Evidently …even pissing away money doesn’t faze these contemporary Republicans. They have no problem with record setting deficits. They have no problem with bailouts immediately following two of the most historic tax cuts in our history. They have no problem with middle class people getting eviscerated in their 401ks. They have no shame. They have no core beliefs beyond what Donald Trump says… goes.
These people go to church. They call themselves fiscal conservatives. They at one time referred to themselves as national defense hardliners during the Cold War. They considered themselves free traders and proponents of laissez-faire Darwinain free enterprise doctrines before Trump came along.
They are neither now. They’re just lost souls who torched their own party in 2016 and four years later take no responsibility whatsoever for their action. Fact is…those people will do the same in 2020.
I guess they don’t care what example their sons or grandsons see them set. I guess the women which surround them in their lives have no problems with Donald Trump.
I’m to assume the behavioral model these people crave moving forward is to treat everyone around them like a piece of inferior junk. Then go to church, make sure they’re seen at church, then violate every tenet of the New Testament after they’ve left church.
I’m to assume the Golden Rule isn’t shared aloud in the churches of Donald Trump. I’m to assume people who go to the churches of Donald Trump believe in Birtherism and view women as inferior.
What other assumptions can I make?
So…I’m on here to admit I’ve been wrong for three years on my blog about the people who voted for Donald Trump in 2016. It wasn’t just about the two historic tax cuts.
It was about them.
Because they evidently have no threshold of individual shame or regret.
My, my, my…then Governor Mary Fallin wouldn’t even stay in town to meet President Obama.
My, my, my.
Back in the last days of 2016 with President Obama leading the country…West Texas Crude closed at around $53 dollars a barrel without Scott Pruitt heading EPA or Rick Perry heading the Dept. of Energy.
The futures still looked relatively bright for Oklahoma companies like Devon Energy and Continental Resources.
Then came Pussy Grabber. The one who kills everything he touches.
As the markets closed yesterday West Texas Crude barely teetered above the $20 a barrel benchmark with Devon and Continental literally begging to be bought by a major oil company in the coming days.
You prolly won’t read that on the laser of truth known as the Daily Thunder because Clay Bennett doesn’t allow Royce Young to write things like this.
But my goodness….didn’t the Oklahomans do themselves well not only voting for Pussy Grabber in 2016, but doing it in all 77 counties of the great state of Oklahoma.
And here’s the thing…PG will win Oklahoma again in 2020 no matter how bad it gets.
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.”
