Trump believes he deserved to be "the most popular hero in America."

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1076658521926656000

If anybody but your favorite President, Donald J. Trump, announced that, after decimating ISIS in Syria, we were going to bring our troops back home (happy & healthy), that person would be the most popular hero in America. With me, hit hard instead by the Fake News Media. Crazy!

Everything Trump touches turns to shit and I hope we have a recession next year.

It would be a big price to pay. He will cause hardship for literally billions of people if his policies and demeanor trigger a worldwide recession, but if it means he is removed from office before starting a nuclear war, doing more damage to the economy, or turning folk against each other, 1930s Nazi-style, it will be a price worth paying.

Why Trump reminds me of the most prolific and notorious UK Pedophile.

I am talking about Jimmy Saville. For those of you who don't know about him, after he died, story after story came out about the popular TV personality who abused hundreds of children. He was the BBC"s best kept secret for decades.

Trump reminds of him because neither men have any discernable talent other than their nasty, loud, boastful personalities that do not follow social norms, they are both manipulative narcissists, and both have plenty to hide. They both have skeletons in their closet. And, although I am not saying Trump.is a pedophole, I believe that after he has gone, the skeletons will pile up so high, as they did for Saville, that even his most ardent supporters will be left with no doubts about the crimes he has committed throughout his life and into his presidency. After Saville died, the truth came out. He was no longer able to use his standing as a shield. Those who were intimidated were free. Those who protected him had nothing.left to protect.

I don't think there is a single person in the UK who has any.respect for Jimmy Saville. Trump"s time will come.

Could Trump use a mental health defense?

It has been widely discussed that Trump is mentally impaired or mentally ill, such as in the article linked below.

If he is charged with serious crimes, could he use this as a defense? Do you think he presents either a progressive mental decline or a mental illness that affects his capacity to perform as president?

If so, do you think that it could be argued that he is a victim of circumstance and there has been no mechanism to provide him with the help he needs, thereby putting the interests of our nation at risk?

Three things I learned from NBC"s Daily Blast - worse than Fox News

At mother-in-law"s, having to have her TV shows blast into my ears. I had never heard of The Daily Blast before, but this is what I learned.

This is a good day for Trump - Stormy Daniel"s ordered to pay Trump fees. No mention that Micheal Cohen is going.to spend 3 years in jail.

The people who believe in man-made climate change are less likely to believe what a doctor tells them, for example, if they have cancer.

Because of a climate of negative slurs about Trump, by for instance CNN, a kid with the same last name as the president is bullied.

It is all mind-numbing stuff dressed up as entertainment.
