Well…not sure if you watched the debacle of the commander in chief forum last night, I did watch part of it and all I have to say is shame on you Matt Lauer. What a poor excuse for moderating this idiot did…the difference in how he treated Hillary vs. Trump was just stunning…going on for almost half of Hillary’s time about the stupid e-mail “controversy” that has been ginned up by Fox news with Matt interrupting Hillary constantly and showing her no respect at all…but when ole Trump came on, it was an ass kissing festival where Lauer let Trump lie and lie and lie and never called him on any of them…even the easily proven lies; never interrupting Trump once…just letting him go on and on spewing his ignorant nonsense and basically kissing Putin’s ass through the whole thing…lavishing praise on his “leadership”…when his “leadership” meant the murder of thousands and causing a war in the Ukraine. The ironic thing here is that he treated Hillary like some kind of criminal when she has never been charged or convicted of anything but completely ignoring the bribes, bankruptcies, and cheating that Trump does on a regular basis…along with the scam school of Trump U whose only purpose was to steal money from the rubes. I have lost all respect for Matt Lauer and think he should just go back to fluff pieces on Today…he has shown that he doesn’t have what it takes for serious political journalism…shame on you Matt Lauer…geez…

Not going to watch…
Well…have been feeling better today after being kind of queasy for the entire weekend so I thought I’d do one now and maybe another later….the first big event for both candidates is tonight and I’m not going to watch it…it’s a serial forum on military matters and I know for a fact that Trump doesn’t know anything about that so there is no need to watch…and we all know Hillary’s views so there will be no surprise there…and, I can’t stand the sound of Trump’s voice….it makes me ill just to hear him mangle the English language….oh, I did want to talk just a little about another…not sure if I can call it a flip flop by Trump since he really doesn’t seem to have any positions that last longer that a sentence…but, earlier in the campaign ole Trump said that he knows more about Isis than any of the generals in our armed forces…and then yesterday he said that he would let the generals plan how to attack them….this is the frustrating thing that I will keep harping on until the election…not one reporter called him on it or asked any follow ups….. and Trump gets to go his merry, delusional way….geez…
Just trying…
Well…not sure why I am not creative at all when I don’t feel well but you can see it with me missing post number two the past few days….now, there is one thing that just makes me furious with my fellow Americans…over 40% of them want the idiot Trump to be president…just let that sink in for a while….that there are millions of people that have bought the fox news bs so totally that they could run a Saint Bernard and they would vote for it…..I am at a loss why that could be other than they really enjoy hate and they really do hate gays, AA’s, and anyone that has a thought that is to the left of Ghengis Khan….I wonder what it would be like to live in that world? Now, I used to be angry quite a bit, but it was a righteous anger aimed at the inequities and stupidity in the world…and mostly at the idiot GW since he did so much damage to this country…damage that would look like a tea party compared to what Trump would do…but, I got better over time and I find myself more bemused most of the time since I realize that there isn’t a damn thing I can do about anything….much easier on my psyche….
The media is in the tank…
Well…I am so damn frustrated with the media lately and the low, low bar they set for the Donald…a bar so low that I heard one pundit describe it as a paint line on the parking lot….that was shown in all it’s glory yesterday with the idiot’s trip to Mexico when they said he looked “presidential” by just standing there and looking like the idiot he is…and none of the media called out his lies when he said that the subject of the wall he wants to build never came up…and then the president of Mexico made a statement that it did…who are you going to believe? The serial liar, Trump, or the president of Mexico? And after all that “presidential” nonsense…ole Donald gave the most racist, crazy speech that he has ever given and lied some more saying that Mexico will pay for the wall “100%”. Now, I know the media has a vested interest in keeping the race close, but to be deliberately in the tank for one candidate, especially one who is so insane as Trump, is just journalistic malpractice writ large….geez….
Trump does have a black hole in him…
Well…it it wasn’t already obvious that there is something seriously wrong with ole Trump, you just have to see the tweet he sent out this morning that shows that, as his ghostwriter says, he has a black hole inside of him. After the tragic death of Dwyane Wade’s cousin in a shooting in Chicago Friday, Trump’s response is just the worst thing I have ever seen: Dwayne Wade’s cousin was just shot and killed walking her baby in Chicago…Just what I have been saying. African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!
Not sure what more I have to say about this but if the delusional Donald thinks that any black person would vote for him after that cynical use of a tragedy, he is just stupid, too…and yes, he did spell Dwyane Wade’s name wrong in the tweet….what an utter asshole….sad
She let them off the hook….
Well…it was refreshing to see Hillary tear into Trump yesterday and his connections to the white supremacists that appear to be his core of support, and to call out his racism, homophobia, xenophobia, and every other phobia that the Donald has embraced. But, one thing I don’t agree with was that she let the rest of the repubs off the hook for being exactly the same as Trump, but just being that way with the dog whistles that were their mode of operation until Trump started using his bullhorn. At least since Obama was elected, and much sooner than that if you look at history, the repubs have been the party of hate, an you can still see that with the passing of all of the anti LGBT laws that are always pushed by repubs…the model being HB2 in North Carolina but that was preceded by the crap in Indiana. So, I think it was a mistake to give the rest of the repubs a pass on their roles in fomenting hate across this country…the light needs to shine on them, too….geez…
The Clinton Foundation…
Well….another day, another fake “scandal” by the idiots on the right who just know that there must be a “scandal” if Hillary is involved. Unlike ole Donald, who cheats everywhere he can and uses his foundation to bribe the AG of Florida to drop the Trump University case, the Clinton foundation follows all of the rules and discloses all of their donors and has never been found to have done anything illegal or unethical since it’s founding in 2001. The Clintons have never even drawn a penny of salary from the foundation…in fact, they have donated millions in speaking fees to the foundation to help continue it’s work…you know, the work…like keeping 800,000 kids with HIV alive in Africa who would have died without the foundations work to make HIV drugs available to them. Now, the shouts from the idiot Trump to “shut it down” since he thinks the crooked way he runs his foundation is how everyone does it…need to be tied to the death sentence that these kids will be under if the foundation is shut down…but, that never matters to the repubs, the only kids they have ever cared about are unborn ones…once they are born, they are on their own…this is the real “death panel”…staffed by modern repubs….geez…
I just couldn’t resist…
Well…it you didn’t already know that old Donald’s entire campaign is just a huge grift to separate the rubes from their money, you just have to look at the latest little nugget that showed up in the press today….since ole Donald started taking outside money to run his campaign, the rent for his headquarters magically went up by 500%…in a building that Trump supposedly “owns” (but who knows if he won’t release his tax returns) so he is now paying himself almost $200,000 a month to rent the space….and it’s not only in the rent that the grift goes on…he’s paid his own properties millions for food, lodging and incidentals; never using anything but his own properties or cronies for campaign expenses…a good gig if you can get it…take money from the rubes and pay yourself millions…sounds like the televangelist playbook to me….sad…I just couldn’t resist this one…
I was going to write about Trump….
Well…as you can see in the title, I was going to write about Trump but thought better of it…so, what to do? I feel like I’m living “the ashes the rain and I” by Joe Walsh right now…just the part where you sit and stare at the rain….it is kind of hypnotic….had a new person move in next to me and so far so good….no loud music or parties….but, it is only one day so I guess I should reserve judgement…okay, I can’t resist a little Trump…I mean what the hell is it that he goes to white communities and makes speeches demeaning black people and calls it “minority outreach”? No wonder he polls at 1% support from black people…but my question is when you take Ben Carson out of the poll, does that mean no black support? Hmmmm…okay, I’m not feeling this right now so I guess I’ll go watch soccer some more….
A pivot in Trumpland?
Well…if you were waiting for a pivot in Trumpland to more of a normal campaign, you can just put that little thought away and forget about it with the latest “reorganization” that was announced today. The money laundering Putin buddy campaign manager, Manafort has been pushed aside…or into the background as they said…to be replace by the head of Breitbart….not sure if you know about Breitbart but it is one of those hate spewing, conspiracy pushing, right wing crazy websites that truly believe that Hillary actually killed people like a hit man…and now this guy is running old Donald’s campaign…it’s not as if ole Donald hasn’t had a close relationship with them in the past…he regularly spouts Breitbart talking points during his “speeches” so now it will just be easier to come straight from Breitbart to Trumps lips…with these moves, it appears that ole Donald has given up on any sanity in his campaign and has gone all conspiracy, all the time…after all, it worked during the primaries…but, in the primaries, all he had to appeal to were other crazy assed people like him, but now, there just aren’t enough crazies to carry the general election. Oh, one last thing on how delusional ole Donald is, his “minority outreach” speech last night was given in an almost all white suburb of Milwaukee where there were no minorities in sight…genius I say, just genius…sad…
