Was this a secret up until now or just monotonous verification for the thousandth time…?

Believe it or not, I totally forgot that is this week. I still sense there is more disturbance in the force however. I am sort of waiting for a “My people, follow me to the Mothership!” sort of moment.

Preview: They will. Housing prices will drop for a bit.

Newspapers don’t have the space or time to document the thousands (!) of lies spewed by him over the last 1 1/2 years of his Presidency.

[Trump] When the media…reveals internal deliberations of our government, it truly puts the lives of many, not just journalists, at risk! Very unpatriotic!

Hitler felt very much the same way about news media.

When Adolf Hitler took power in 1933, the Nazis controlled less than three percent of Germany’s 4,700 papers.
The elimination of the German multi-party political system not only brought about the demise of hundreds of newspapers produced by outlawed political parties; it also allowed the state to seize the printing plants and equipment of the Communist and Social Democratic Parties, which were often turned over directly to the Nazi Party. In the following months, the Nazis established control or exerted influence over independent press organs.

This is Trump’s goal, yes? Make the only “approved” news outlets legal, IOW, only Faux News. I see pattern here.

You got to admit, few other people would be so proud of lying so obsessively to the American people as Donald Trumpski.

Trump is proud dictators are following his lead. The man has no regard for democracy or freedom of the press. Next time we should avoid electing a TV character. That is going to be hard when media performance is the the only path to recognition.

But her emails…

He’s coming along. Previously he said he had actually invented the term “fake news”. Now he admits only to popularizing it. Progress of sorts. Ah, what the hell, he’s a “fucking moron®”

My friend’s husband was one of the five killed that day. I don’t know if she will ever recover; it was as devastating as anything could be.

The biggest, most insidious lie he told was when he swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America. He doesn’t believe in it nor in the concept of a republic and is giving aid and comfort to dictators everywhere.

Fundamentally unfit - emotionally, intellectually, ethically, morally.
