Heel Spurs?

Donald Trump and the Melania could have followed the tradition of presidents past and walked across the street to the Blair House to greet the family of presidents being buried.

That was a bit much for Donald Trump.

 

What? A seven vehicle motorcade wasn’t enough?

I’m telling you – he can’t walk very far.  You know, that fine specimen of youth and vitality and the healthiest person to ever occupy the White House.  He can’t walk very far.

And that’s what makes it even more fun to watch him walk off a cliff.

Thanks to Kary for the heads up.

Well, Lookie Here

Some guy with much better graphic skills than I have figured out – for real – what might have been redacted from Mueller’s document.

Take a look here. (Click the little one to see the big one.)

 

And now take that size and see where else it might fit.

So is there a criminal investigation of Trump separate and apart from the Russia deal?

Lord, I hope so.

Thanks to Alfredo over at the Dairy Queen for the heads up.

 

Hey

I’m on my way out the door so I’m just gonna leave this here.

Go to Google.

Type in Sex Robot Steve Bannon.

That’s all you need to know.

It’s a story.  For real.

 

Not Even Surprising

Okay so, Ray Myer, a member of the Texas Republican Party’s Platform Committee, spoke out loud.

 

 

I don’t know why that would make headlines.  After all, have you read the Texas Republican Party Platform?

Good Lord, Honey, if you give that guy a hot toddy or two, he’ll show you his civil war flag he carries while he wears his WWII helmet.  And his outfits show that he was on the losing side both times.  You’d think he’d learn.

“Is there anything wrong with saying they’re black and proud? Is there anything wrong with being an American Indian and saying that we’re red and proud?” Myers responded. “I mean, just like Black Lives Matter, white lives matter, too. We’re all in the same melting pot. Now why can’t we say, as Anglos, that we’re proud?”

Because, jerk, that’s not how racism works.  You’re the majority. You own most of the money and most of the power.

Myers is a 74-year-old activist who has been involved in GOP politics for decades. But “the pivotal political moment came when Obama came on the scene. I knew immediately that America was in trouble,” he said in an Empower Texans profile.

Yeah, that’s it. You got it. That is how racism works.

Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.

Facing the Darkness

December 04, 2018 By: El Jefe Category: Russians, Trump

This week, New York Times columnist Charles Blow wrote a depressing, but I believe accurate opinion piece about how Trump will respond to Mueller’s report on the Russia investigation.  It ain’t pretty.  Blow compares Trump to Nixon, pointing out their difference in response to unassailable facts.  When Nixon was facing an actual impeachment vote, he resigned a crawled back under his rock at San Clemency.  Blow says that Trump will NEVER yield, even after an unlikely vote for impeachment.

His point here is that the end of the Mueller investigation isn’t the end of a long nightmare, but actually only the beginning.  Even in the face of incontrovertible evidence, Trump will admit nothing. He’ll attack on Twitter. Trump’s network of propaganda outlets, lead by Fox Noise, will spin the findings at hypersonic speeds to twist up the finding to assert that negatives are positives, red is blue, the sky is green, the sun rises in the west, and that Trump is a “victim” of a smear campaign.

Blow describes the looming constitutional crisis as the  “country’s crucible” that will test the very strength of our constitutional form of government.  Trump won’t go down without taking the country with him.  That is darkness that is no less threatening than the Great Depression, the rise of fascism in Europe in the 1930s, and the Great Recession.  And, it could start any day.

Sleep tight…
