Trump Mocks Mika Brzezinski; Says She Was ‘Bleeding Badly From a Face-Lift’--What you must do do quickly!
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/29/business/media/trump-mika-brzezinski-facelift.html?emc=edit_na_20170629&nl=breaking-news&nlid=75028030&ref=headline
Trump's presidency is obscene. It is obscene when I wake up in the morning to feel fear course through my body wondering what stupid tweet and idiotic comment will Trump utter next. Poor little hands Trump cannot take criticism directed at the president. Trump, what in god's name did you think holding the office of the presidency was about? Did you think it was about the nature of someone's face lift? Is that all you have to do, Mr. Trump, is comment on things that simply do not matter when according to you Syria is about to launch a chemical attack.
Did someone forget to teach you in your junior high civics class that the presidency is serious? This psychologically damaged human holds millions of lives in his hands. Does he realize he is in an office where he could obliterate the earth many times over and he is speaking about turning someone away from his Mir-A-Lago beach house because he did not like the looks of a surgical procedure of one of his would be guests (if that even happened? )
What in god's name has this nation done? It must be undone. How anyone could call themselves Republican and think he/she is worthy of respect is beyond me. To the American electorate: What you must do do quickly before this nation dissolves into a bath of incompetency before our very eyes and the planet sinks into the bowels of the universe.
Trump Administration Prepares To Start Enforcing Travel Ban--My Comment-Taking the Low Road
Link to the above story: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/us-sets-criteria-for-visa-applicants-from-6-muslim-nations_us_5954746be4b02734df2fe0e5?23t&ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009
My Comment:
Trump insanity rules once again devoid of rational thought! Few if any of the Islamic terrorist attacks in the US have been perpetrated by those who have no family or no other connections inside the US. On the contrary they have been perpetrated by those who have family, educational, occupational and other ties to the US as well as being born and living here. Family often are the last to know what their adult children are doing. Witness the Boston Marathon bombing as one example or the San Bernadino bombing for another. There are others. Look them up.
I aver Trump does not give a damn about terrorism or its victims inside the US because if he did he would (a) put Saudi Arabia on the list. 9 of the 15 9/11 hijackers were Saudi. Radical Wahhabi violent Islam was born in Saudi Arabia (b) go after those who in this country already have terrorist proclivities as seen on FB and other social media sites about whom the FBI knows and are legal residents of the US. Moreover, Drumpf's travel ban and round up should NOT be limited to Muslims but also include white uber violent supremacists and neo Nazis Trump welcomes into his ranks! The Oklahoma City bombing took down nearly all of the US federal building in Oklahoma and killed 168 people many of whom were children. Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols convicted of the bombing were influenced by white nationalist militia movement violent fanatics and anti-government right wing extremists.
For Trump it's all about the money which is why Saudi Arabia is not on the list and about doing something anything using hate of innocent persons of brown color even if it does nothing to prevent a terrorist attack. Moreover, a blogger wrote and I agree: "Anything to distract the country from his selling us out to the Russians and taking away our insurance to further enrich the rich. Knowing Trump's talent for overreach, I'm willing to bet that he exceeds the fairly narrow ruling of the Supreme Court. He keeps acting as if the Court gave him a complete victory instead of the really narrow one he got."
Yes, yet again, Drumpf takes the low road! So what else is new? RESIST!
