There are some things about Donald Trump I consider absolutely despicable, other things I regard as barely tolerable, and a tiny list of things which I actually like. There are others who love everything he does, more people who hate everything he does, and yet more people who just want to know if you're going to eat all of that.
All of that is niggardly relative to the actual matters at hand. There was the recent clearing of the Standing Rock resistance and it was done at doublequick time too. Obama's spinelessness let that confrontation drag out for about a year, I suppose, and Trump closed it in about a month.
There was almost no reaction to that other than, gee, sure sucked to be them and, by the way, are you going to eat all of that?
Note: there's no commendation to Trump for closing Standing Rock and it's another nasty blot on America's history with the American Indians.
Meanwhile, we see the progress in Congress where they haven't changed even infinitesimally from that which we have endured for years. When they can't go for the primary point then try to outflank it by sending the army ants to keep biting it until it finally gives up or dies.
That process isn't just primal, it's chickenshit, and not at all worthy of the country claiming the greatest democracy ever built.
There's rampant hypocrisy on this matter of Sessions since James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, was a great supporter of Clinton in terms of accusations of Russian hacking but lied, bare-faced, to Congress and not one damn thing was done about it. Now there's a similar matter although much less serious with Sessions and there's uproar from it. That's not process, it's a fucking catfight.
Note: it's less serious in terms of Clapper lying about the intrusiveness of government surveillance and Sessions talked with Russians. Unless Sessions was giving away nuclear secrets, so what if he talked with Russians.
The attack on Sessions is based on whether he lied to Congress and I don't know if he did. It doesn't appear anyone else does either so, yahoo, we're off and running for another MSM kangaroo court.
My charge of McCarthyism stands since this isn't an isolated incident as I see it relative to a much longer-running effort to make support for Russians look like the same level of criminality as sex with children or (gasp) even worse in being a liberal. You have seen the extremes at which there were even accusations of golden showers with hookers and surely people get to the point with this purple tabloid rubbish that they say fucking enough ... but when.
The Forefathers were much like Hari Seldon in "Foundation" with his psychohistory in terms of designing a model for the growth of the new country based on their knowledge of law, philosophy, and human behavior. That it still stands two centuries later is the testament to the vision and it's the opposite to that which we see now. We are hardly ever considering the future all that much and certainly not on MSM.
Ed: Trump wants to get jobs happening and make a stronger economy and everyone comes up roses.
Yeah, great, really great, but do you hear of doing anything in terms of any kind of direction or doing anything different. There hasn't been direction beyond wasting Muslims for years, either generically with all of them or specifically regarding assassination of Assad by any means necessary.
Note: the reference to "Foundation" by Isaac Asimov is because there's substantial allegory relative to the current time. There are two types of foundations of interest just now since the book presented the one Hari Seldon designed and the Forefathers made a different one but the concepts have many similarities.
The detail is because assumption everyone has read "Foundation" is arrogant and assumption they have not is patronizing so I need to be in the middle of that.
