The head birther lies about his own father's birthplace, and the American press just yawns.

It's been an interesting few days here in these divided states of America.

First, is there a crazier set of people than trump supporters? Look at this and this and tell me if you think that these people are normal. But this is what happens when you belong to a cult, you lose all sense of decency and your ability to reason.

It is also what happens when you fall for a con.

Hakeem Jeffries summed up the conman perfectly:

  • "Billionaire”, but no tax returns. “Stable genius”, but no grades. “Exonerated”, but no . “Party of Healthcare”, but no plan. The American people are being hustled straight out of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. "
 And the conman in chief was at it again today. The man actually lied about where his father was born for crying out loud.

“My father is German, right? Was German. And born in a very wonderful place in Germany, so I have a great feeling for Germany,” Trump said during a meeting with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, who is from Norway. 

Ahhhm, no Donald, your father was born in New York. I mean seriously, who does this? Who lies with all the world watching about where his father was born? I am starting to think that the man just can't help himself. Surely he must have known that this could be easily fact checked. I suppose that when you tell so many lies and you are used to getting away with them you become emboldened to just tell more. 

For instance, trump lied that his government gave Puerto Rico (one of those three Mexican countries) ninety one billion dollars, while trying to make a point about the ungrateful people on the island.

Again, it was easily fact checked, and his lie was exposed. 

But I don't blame trump, I blame the main stream news media for giving him a pass over and over again. These lies and his behavior ( he said oranges instead of origin at least three times today) should give us all cause for concern. Instead, our major news outlets continue to label them misstatements and ignore the fact that the man might actually be insane.

  1. He's up to 22 lies a day now, if you average the most recent 200 days of his presidency, which is more than one lie per hour as he has to sleep sometime.
    Which is a dramatic escalation of mendacity over his first 600 days when he only averaged less than six per day.
    I wonder what is behind the surge of bullshit?
    Fear? Desperation?
    I would say guilt, but malignant narcissists never think they've done anything wrong.
    Perhaps the Adderall is making him paranoid and causing him to run his mouth when it would be better for him if he could just STFU for a while.
    Either way, if he's not in control of his own behavior enough to keep from damaging himself ("...Republicans will be the party of healthcare...") how is he gonna be in enough control to keep from damaging the country? ($1.7 billion in commerce daily at stake if he tries to "close the border")
    Answer?
    He's not, and he never has been.

    I've stopped waiting for Trump to hit bottom. There is no bottom. There is nothing Trump will not lie about: big things, small things, whatever. He will lie to your face and say things are not happening as you watch them happen -- literally, "who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?"

    Yes, he might really be clinically insane. What mentally healthy person acts like this?

    Meanwhile, his appointees do not disappoint in their bumbling incompetence and revolting depravity. (As I pointed out on the last blog entry, Trump might be about to appoint either of the following retch-inducing people to some new, prominent federal position: Kris Kobach or Ken Cuccinelli.)

    Here to mock the education secretary is Randy Rainbow with his latest, Cruella DeVos. He got her pretty good, I must say.

    I'm inclined to think that Trump is suffering from early dementia. At times he seems to be having some difficulty remembering what he is talking about. Recently Trump has struggled to recall or pronounce common words. Today he said "orange" when he meant origin, and a couple of weeks ago he called Apple CEO, Tim Cook "Tim Apple" to the man's face.

    In addition, he often repeats something he has said in the last few minutes. And he says it with the attitude that he is imparting new information. There is no awareness that he is repeating himself.

    Hope I am wrong about this, because if I'm not, then God help us. This man has the nuclear codes.

    "whjitey beats black woman and damages his windshield in process. Cops want to charge her for the damage he caused her to make."

    She didn't damage his windshield "in the process" of him beating her.

    He beat her up.

    And then, shortly afterward, she smashed out the window of his truck in revenge. An assault can't create legal justification for revenge-based vandalism. That is why she is being charged.

    “Raygun claimed trees caused acid rain and no, Al Gore never said he invented the internet.”

    There was an element of truth to what Reagan said. There are chemicals called terpenes and isoprenes released by trees, which can contribute to ground-level air pollution and acid rain.

    However, what Reagan actually said was: “Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do.“ And that is deeply stupid.

    As for Al Gore, what he said was that as a congressman/senator, he spearheaded legislation that funded telecommunications development that, in turn, led to the Internet. Republican dickheads turned that into: “Al Gore says he invented the Internet.”

    Today, this story is just fuel for jokes about the Internet, and nobody remembers what really happened.

  35. Trees cause more pollution than automobiles do.“

    “The American Petroleum Institute filed suit against the EPA [and] charged that the agency was suppressing a scientific study for fear it might be misinterpreted… The suppressed study reveals that 80 percent of air pollution comes not from chimneys and auto exhaust pipes, but from plants and trees.”

    – Former Republican President Ronald Reagan in 1981 and 1979 respectively

    There is no peer-reviewed study that concludes that trees cause 80% of pollution, or that they cause more pollution than cars.

    Reagan received criticism from this, especially from democrats and the scientific community.

    To be fair, some trees are known to release terpenes and isoprenes, which are linked to photochemical smog and ground level ozone pollution. A Yale study also showed that some trees infected with fungi can release methane. But that methane is only 18% of the CO2 removed from the atmosphere by trees.

    That is deeply stoopid.

  37. From Taegan Goddard:

    “Some of Robert Mueller’s investigators have told associates that Attorney General William Barr failed to adequately portray the findings of their inquiry and that they were more troubling for President Trump than Mr. Barr indicated,” the New York Times reports.

    “Some members of Mr. Mueller’s team are concerned that, because Mr. Barr created the first narrative of the special counsel’s findings, Americans’ views will have hardened before the investigation’s conclusions become public.”

    “It was unclear how much discussion Mr. Mueller and his investigators had with senior Justice Department officials about how their findings would be made public. It was also unclear how widespread the vexation is among the special counsel team, which included 19 lawyers, about 40 F.B.I. agents and other personnel.”

  40. Something maybe that you did not know about Nipsey Hussle would be the #FDT effort to mobilize the vote that the rapper took with his buddy, YG. This might be healing for some of us who are discouraged by the naked power of the demon. I think it is a fitting tribute to the fallen one. Someone showed me this video during my darkest hour and it gave me hope. Three years later, the message of the two rappers in introducing their production on the streets of South Central Los Angeles have an eerie prescience. But sadly that of a warning unheeded. Read them for yourselves. Then take four minutes to learn about American history.

    AS YOUNG PEOPLE WITH AN INTEREST IN THE FUTURE OF AMERICA…
    WE HAVE TO EXERCISE OUR INTELLIGENCE AND CHOOSE WHO LEADS US INTO IT WISELY.
    2016 WILL BE A TURNING POINT IN THIS COUNTRY’S HISTORY…
    THE QUESTION IS IN WHUCH DIRECTION WILL WE GO?

    THE LAST EIGHT YEARS REPRESENTED AN UPWARD EVOLUTION IN WESTERN POLITICAL PRINCIPLES
    AND THE COLLECTIVE VIBRATION IN AMERICA AS A WHOLE…
    WE SAW MORE INCLUSIVE/DIPLOMATIC FOREIGN POLICY…
    WE SAW PRISON REFORM ACTUALLY BRING HOME FAMILY MEMBERS AND NEIGHBORS OF OURS…
    AND WE SAW MORALLY UNJUST CONFLICTS WITH OTHER COUNTRIES RESOLVED.

    OUR OPINION IS THAT IN A TECHNOLOGICALLY EMPOWERED AND NUCLEAR ARMED PLANET…
    SEPARATION IS THE ENEMY.
    THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF AMERICA WILL BE A MOST PIVOTAL PRESIDENT FOR THESE REASONS.
