Trump Is Losing the 'Fake News' Debate


                                 Good Day World!

According to a Pentagon report, Trump wanted to increase our nuclear arsenal the first time he found out we were in the process of decreasing our nuke supply.

Everyone in the room heard him say it. That's called a fact.

But Donny doesn't like facts. I think we all know that by now. So he attacked NBC News for sharing the story with the public.

He said it was fake news. Then he threatened to pull the network's broadcasting license in another example of an assault on the First Amendment.

Trump has always attacked facts. To him, they are inconvenient reminders that he's lying about something again.   

Yesterday's twitter rant about NBC is another reminder that Trump is breaking away from his handlers in the West Wing. 

According to the Pentagon report, the whole staff was shocked when Trump suggested the U.S. needed to beef up it's nuclear stockpile, not decrease it.

One website chronicles Trump's lies since he took office. The last count was in August when The Washington Post documented 1,057 lies and misleading phrases.

Facts like this are crushing Trump's fake news narrative. It's like hearing someone cry wolf every day. After a while you realize that person lives in their own world.

To be sure, Trump has a core of followers who believe he's a working man's deity, and that he can say no wrong. They all happily set aside facts to show their loyalty to the former TV personality.

That leaves a majority of Americans who no longer believe a thing Trump says. The backlash against his lies and ability to lead the country is increasing among members of Congress.

Trump's latest attack against Senator Bob Corker has opened up a rift that will only increase with time. 

At one of Trump's campaign rallies last year he bragged that people would get tired of him "winning" all the time. Thus far all Trump has done is manage to lose every legislative fight he's picked.

Obamacare is still the law of the land. The possibility of Trump passing his huge and historic tax bill is pretty thin since he's managed to divide the Republicans in Congress.

Thanks to Trump's ego and stupidity, the world is laughing at our flawed leader. That's a loss, not a win situation.

The bottom line is Trump can claim anything written about him is fake news until he turns from orange, to blue, but people can see the Emperor has no clothes on.

Reality Check: No One Knows If Trump Is Joking, Not Even Trump


                                Good Day World!

I had a good laugh yesterday when PR slut Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that Trump was just joking about getting an IQ Test to see if he, or Senior Republican Bob Corker, was smarter.

Just the idea of Trump taking an IQ test is hilarious. There's lab rats with higher IQ's than Donny.

Corker wasn't laughing at Trump's alleged joke.

He just pointed out that no one was on duty in the White House Adult Day Care Center when Trump was tweeting his trash, and that he was concerned about Trump starting WW III.

Trump tried to demean Corker by calling him a "liddle guy" that was not tall enough to be a good politician (not sure when that became a requirement).

He doubled down with a lie about Corker begging for his endorsement when he ran for office again. Never happened.

Corker is retiring, and he's had enough of Trump's lies.

As usual, Donny shot himself in the foot during his tantrum. He's made an enemy of Corker whose going to be a thorn in his side from here on out.

But didn't Sarah say Trump was just joking?

Her comment is a joke. No one knows when Trump's "just joking" or dead-ass serious. That goes for world leaders who are trying to adjust to the man-child in the Oval Office.

And that goes for Trump himself, because the old bastard has dementia. At the very least.

Just to recap Sarah:

There's really nothing funny about having a loose-lipped clown anywhere near the nuclear codes.

There's nothing funny about the people who are enabling him right now. That goes for you.

There's nothing funny about a president purposely dividing a nation for his own ego and entertainment.

Pence's Pathetic Plot To Please Trump

Good Day World!

You weren't fooling anybody Mr. Vice President!

Your stunt at the Colts - 49'ers game Sunday was already common knowledge before you even entered the stadium.

The press never followed you in because they knew you were going to walk out early in protest when the 49'ers knelt during the National Anthem.

I, and anyone else observing your stunt, knew that you were ordered to back-up Trump's racist attack against NFL players by pretending outrage, by Donny himself.

How much money did this stunt cause taxpayers? You had secret service securing a stadium for what? For ten minutes? A government jet took you there, again on the taxpayer's dime.  

What a picture you and Trump must of made, plotting an attack on free speech in the "war room."

I have to ask, do you have any morals, or conscience left after kissing Trump's ass daily? You don't say much, but when you do, it's seldom accurate and always following Daddy's orders.

Remember, you weren't elected. Trump picked you out as the perfect minion to carry out his agenda. I wonder how you manage to get around without a spine?

Here's the thing, when Trump is no longer around after getting booted out of office, or miraculously finishing his full term, you aren't going to replace him.

Americans may make stupid choices at times, but you'll be so toxic from being a Trumpie that no one will back your effort to take over Trump's job.

In essence, you hitched your star to the wrong wagon partner.

Trump's Turbulant Relationship With Fake News

Good Day World!

Irony is Trump launching a crusade against "fake news."

Fake news has been good for Donny since the Russians beefed up his presidential campaign with a pack of lies that went viral on right-wing websites.

Fake news and Trump are old friends. Back in his younger days he used fake news to get something written about himself.

Shoot...he even pretended to be his own PR guy to the amusement of several reporters at the time. It was all about seeing his name in the news.

Nothing has changed since the early 1980s. Trump still wants to see his name, and hopefully, his ugly mug in some publication every morning.

Tweeting from his throne each morning, Donny likes to share what he read, or watched, earlier on fake news sites
that favor fringe dwellers like himself.

Now that fake news planted by the Russians on Facebook has been exposed by the senate intelligence committee, Trump is claiming their report is fake news.

I know. It's hard to believe. The man can no longer distinguish between reality and a fantasy world of fake news. 

What the hell is this maniac still doing in the Oval Office?

SwampThing, Day 261: Trump Calls Senate Findings on Russian Interference "Fake News'

Good Day World!

As anyone who has been paying attention knows, Trump did not drain the swamp in Washington.

He restocked it. For good measure he crawled in and became the SwampThing-in-Charge.

Donny's very familiar with swamps.

His life before becoming POTUS was a grand tour of swamps around the globe. When it came to slimy, playboy Donnie set the standard in his younger years. 

Now that he's a doddering old bastard, Trump simply calls anything he doesn't like fake. It's a simple four-letter word he can remember and likes to drop daily.

After going through mounds of evidence a Senate intelligence committee concluded that Russia did infer with the 2016 election.

No question about it.

But Donny ignored the facts, and called their report fake.

He quickly downplayed the fact that the committee was still looking into his campaigns possible collusion with the Russians to help him win.

What are Americans supposed to think?

That our president, a chronic liar, knows more than all the senators who interviewed over 100 people and collected reams of incriminating paperwork and digital data?

That's a stretch by any sane persons standards. Yes, I know, not to a core Trumpie. But I did say sane.

So the obvious conclusion must be that whenever Trump opens his mouth he's lying.

One of the sure signs is that he often ends his rants with, "believe me." There's plenty of other tells. 

Meanwhile, we're stuck with a SwampThing in office until Congress grows some balls and impeaches him.

Time To Really Worry When Trump Says it's 'The Calm Before the Storm'

Good Day World!

The storm started when Trump was sworn in as our president.

In less than one year there's been so many storms coming from the White House that people are living on the edge. What will the Liar-In-Chief say next?

Politicians and average Americans cringe when Trump starts one his patented tweet storms. 

In a gathering of military elites a couple of days ago, Trump hinted at something big happening soon. He coyly told reporters that it was, "The calm before the storm."

Oh shit! That means anything can happen. He was addressing military families gathered in the room. It was obvious that Trump had a plan to shake something up in the world.

Does he plan on attacking North Korea? Is he going to void our treaty with the Iranians? Is he going to start a war in some third world country?

It's been time to worry about Trump's actions since his first big lie about the crowd size at his inauguration. When a moron like Trump declares it's "the calm before the storm," it's really time to worry.

He's like a little kid, toying with the press and millions of Americans lives.

After belittling Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, for pursuing diplomatic solutions to the North Korean crisis, Trump undercut him and said negotiating was useless.

After suffering through too many nasty surprises from Don the Con, Americans are wary. For good reason. His reign has been a waking nightmare, violating laws, ethics, and attacking people of color.

Americans are already weary, and wary, of what Trump will do next. For him to announce that he's got a blockbuster bit of news to share soon, it's going to be "yuge" and terrifying.

It would probably be a good idea to locate the nearest bomb shelter in your city. I'm just saying.

The State of Trump: Of Morons and Mice

Good Day World!

It's no secret that Trump is a moron. The cat was let out of the bag decades ago.

If anyone should know, it's Rex Tillerson the nation's besieged (by Trump) Secretary of State.

You did notice Rex didn't deny calling Trump a moron when he held a special press conference to say he and Trump were still buddies.

My guess is that everyone in the White House (and down the food chain) has called Trump a moron, or another equally accurate moniker.

America elected a moron.

It's been less than one year since Trump was inaugurated and lied about the size of the crowd attending the sham ceremony.

I hold all the mice in Congress complicit over the chaos in our country, and abroad, that's been created by top fat cat Trump.
I've never seen a bigger collection of cheese (or shit) eaters in my life.

I just want those Republican mice to remember Trump will be gone someday - either early, or after serving a full term.

That will be their time of accounting (starting with the hot tar and feather treatment) by the majority of Americans who didn't vote for Trump.

Hopefully, the Trump era of madness and hate will serve as a wake-up call for politicians and voters alike.

Let the mice play with taxpayer money, flying around on private trips, and other abuses of the system, while they can.

Mouse traps will surround Washington after the Orange Scourge slips once too often and gets locked up for obstruction of justice, colluding with the Russians, lying under oath, and a host of ethics violations.

Even if, by some perverted miracle, Trump finishes his term, he'll slip away and be forever remembered as the worst president this country ever had.  

America...take a deep breath this time, and don't fall for another con man when you vote.

All Americans should be united in not wanting another moron to sit in the White House again.

When Did This Great Divide Among Americans Happen?

Good Day World!

When did Americans split into two warring political camps?

Some historians suggest that when we elected a black president we tipped the scales. White dominance was challenged.

Closet racists pulled out their white hoods and claimed President Obama was born in Kenya.

All the suppressed white fears about giving blacks more equality in the 60s and 70s, while whites were supposedly losing rights, bubbled to the surface when Obama was elected.

At least that's one theory.

Others suggest it's the economy in one form or the other. The millionaires and billionaires vs the rest of the country. Growing financial desperation among the poor, and middle class. 

I go with the theory that the wealthy, the elite, and the politically powerful, have taken over America for some time now.

Equality and justice are graffiti on the restroom walls.

The crazy bastard that's nominally-in-charge of our government, is a racist, serial liar, and mean man-child whose busy taunting another mean man-child in North Korea.

The rumors of nuclear war remind me of the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Cold War. It also reminds me that we have never been totally united in this country.

United We Stand was, and is, a myth.

The great divide has always existed.

We're currently witnessing an extreme reflection of the hate and fear that has always lingered between whites and people of color, and the wealthy versus the poor and middle class.

Deadly Silence: GOP Congress Controlled By Gun Lobby

Good Day World!

Don't let anyone kid you, hunters don't need silencers, despite a GOP attempt to legalize them to "save a hunter's hearing."

Every time there's a push for some common sense gun control laws, the NRA cracks its whip and the Republicans in Congress cower...like cowards, hiding behind a very wide-open interruption of the 2nd Amendment.

Besides the silencer measure, House GOP leaders had been moving forward with a bill to allow people with concealed-carry permits to take their weapons to other states.

A vote on that measure seems unlikely due to the recent massacre in Las Vegas. The bill will probably be stalled for awhile, but when the controversy settles down it'll pop back up like an evil Jack-In-The-Box.

Republican leaders have refused to entertain Democratic demands to expand background checks for gun purchases and tighten restrictions on semi-automatic weapons.

They claim the Democrats are taking advantage of the situation - a mass murder - by "politicizing it."

So, when is the right time to talk about gun control and safety for Americans? During the Christmas holidays? Easter? Halloween?

I don't think so. When a shooting this horrific - think about it, over 500 people wounded and 59 killed - happens you don't turn your head at one of the root causes.

By brainwashing and bribery, the NRA lobby is holding the majority of Americans hostage. The GOP led Congress is responsible for the spiraling gun murders using semi-auto and automatic weapons.

One example of the NRA's duplicity is a way to make long guns automatic, skirting the American ban on automatic weapons. That's what the Las Vegas shooter did.

The part can be ordered online and easily attached to a semi-auto weapon making it a machine gun. We saw that in Las Vegas.

There's ways to protect the 2nd Amendment without allowing guns of mass destruction to be sold like BB guns. One is common sense.

No one needs a machine gun to go hunting. No one needs a silencer to go hunting. No matter what the bastards at the NRA tell you.

If Only Stephen Paddock Were a Muslim

"On crushing ISIS, our president and his party are all in. On asking the N.R.A. for even the tiniest moderation, they are AWOL. No matter how many innocents are fatally shot — no matter even that one of their own congressional leaders was critically wounded playing baseball — it’s never time to discuss any serious policy measures to mitigate gun violence."

Las Vegas Massacre: The Biggest Question is Why?

Good Day World!

Like millions of other Americans, I'm still in shock at what happened in Las Vegas.

It was a well-planned massacre. There's no other way to put it. Perhaps the scariest part of the whole thing is this killer doesn't fit the usual profile of serial killers.

Everyone who knew him, including his family, were shocked at what he did. There's nothing in his past - no criminal record - no indication of anything abnormal about the guy.

What Americans have to understand is that we are never really safe against a "Lone Wolf" attacker.

No amount of planning or making new laws is going to change the fact that there is no way to stop a determined person from attacking innocent people.

All the experts agree. Weapons are as easy to get as candy. If you can't get a weapon legally, there's plenty of illegal alternatives.

There will be political debates for months about this terrible massacre. In the end, nothing is going to change. Americans love their guns, and are paying the price for their passion.

I hate to sound so cynical, but you and I both know it's the truth. The NRA owns Congress, so don't even think about those politically biased bastards making any positive changes.  

I'd like to say things will get better...but I can't. All I can do is pray for those innocent people who lost their lives for no reason.

Another Coup Attempt? Trump Supporters Are Signaling a Jan. 6 Repeat if He Loses Again
