I honestly can’t keep up – there is so much wrong going on
that one is reduced to bullet points.

The latest report is that there the Russian election
hacking attempts included 39 states. This begins to raise the idea that nobody
in DC wants to face. That the Russians affected the vote totals giving the
election to Trump. Which of course means a) we have a REAL crisis on our hands
as something like this is far far outside anything the founders could imagine
and b) Hillary actually won which means all those stories about how it’s all
Hillary’s fault she lost are wrong wrong wrong.

Linked to this after Labor’s much better than
expected result in the recent snap election, there were a spate of stories that
pretty much said “nah nah Bernie would have won”. This is of course debatable
given the above story. And alas if true,
the point it makes is that misogyny is so pervasive in the US that a Male
Socialist Jew would have a better chance of winning than a woman.

Trump held his first cabinet meeting which after
he gave a quick speech saying how wonderful he was had the cabinet all say how
wonderful he was. It was something that
would not have been out of place in North Korea. It was crazy and creepy at the
same time. Honestly one expected each cabinet member to say “Donald Trump is the
kindest, bravest, most wonderful human being I’ve ever known in my life.” After
which Jeff Sessions shot the Sec of the interior at trumps command – no but it’s
that level creepy.
·
Trump has pretended there are tapes of his
conversations with Comey, there are none. He’s also said he’s willing go under
oath. He won’t. Not that being under
oath would stop him from lying but again he won’t it’s just him spouting
bullshit.
·
I have no idea what is going on with Qatar –
Trump says one thing the Sec of State says another and nobody knows what’s the
deal
·
Newt Gingrich and others are saying that Trump
should fire the recently appointed Special Prosecutor. Trump may or may not do this, he’s gotten away
with a heck of a lot in his lifetime so he might try this – still taking Newt’s
advice about anything given his track record is not a good idea. Of course the
real reason Trump will fire him, if he does, is that he’s guilty as hell.
·
Folks are puzzled that Trump has never asked anybody
a single question about Russia’s interference
in the election including James Comey – the reason? Well someone somewhere
noted that the guilty never ask questions, they know.
·
The idea that the President is out of his mind
is flowing into the mainstream these days – one weird thought I’ve had is that
Trump keeps pushing because he wants to get caught. He knows he is of control but
he can’t stop himself.
·
Sessions will appear in front of the Senate and
not say anything.
·
Megan Kelly is not turning out to be a good hire
– which is not a shock. She’s gotten into hot water with her interview of Alex
Jones . My response is why? Who the hell doesn’t know about Alex Jones and his
instance that the killings at Sandy Hook were fake?
·
The Senate is trying to kill people, sorry enact
in the dead of night it seems a version of Trumpcare that will kill people.
Welcome to crazy town everybody. It can only
get worse yes?
