So Trump is spouting off, fear-mongering again. Saying, with zero evidence, that Middle Easterners have snuck themselves into the caravan heading toward the US. In response, people have been saying,
“Because people trying to “sneak” into the USA from the Middle East always fly to Guatemala, then WALK the rest of the way….::eyeroll::”
Their response to this is going to be something dumb and paranoid like,”They want to blend in so we don’t suspect them”.
At this point, reporters on location with the caravan have said there is no evidence of middle eastern people among them. Journalists and commentators (even at Fox News) are saying there is no evidence of anyone like this.
It seems that Frumpy is the only one saying it but he usually gets his news from Fox so if he is just making this shit up, either…
1. he is purposely fear-mongering leading up to midterms because the reps know they can’t win without cheating OR
2. his lies are getting worse/more frequent because his mental illness/dementia (or Syphilis?) is progressing.

Republicans can’t win fairly so they have to cheat
I was stewing over a video I saw with all these Trump supporters, women included, who were spewing the same nonsense about false accusations and lying accusers, etc. when I came across one about voter suppression.
It seems like every time we hear about something that would give one side an unfair advantage over another, it is the Republicans at the wheel.
They have been proven in multiple cases to have taken part in voter suppression, particularly in predominently minority communities.
Also, the jerrymandering or “re-districting” of certain areas to give the Republican candidate the advantage.
We also have the Russian interference in this last election and we all know who that leads back to.
I mean WTF??? This is an entire system of “If the Republicans can’t win fairly, they “win” by cheating.
So yeah, Reps. if the only way you can win is by cheating, It might be time to get a better team.
The Toddler in the White House
Okay my thought for today: Trump seems to want to change…everything about how things are run but he knows nothing about how government is actually run.
So…next time he talks about reducing restrictions on this or removing protections on that, why don’t his generals or his advisors just tell him,”That can’t be changed. It has to stay the way it is”. Or tell him “a president is limited to change X number of things in order to maintain the structure of democracy”.
It’s like when you tell a toddler, “Nope, there are no more cookies. They’re all gone” when you know darn well there is half a bag in that cabinet but you lie because you know it’s not good for a toddler to eat cookies whenever he wants.
That’s what we are dealing with here. A toddler with the power to destroy this country. So we need to tell him that there is no more power in the cabinet…for his own good and the good of the country.
In His Own Reality
Okay so now Trump is claiming that less than 20 people died in Puerto Rico due to the hurricane and not the 3000+ that actually did and that the discrepancy is due to the Dems wanting to make him “look bad”. Oh no dummy, you managed to look bad all by yourself. Congratulations.
I mean…what gives? Will he demand death certificates from the 3000 families who lost loved ones in that hurricane to prove that it actually happened? And if they do, will he then call the certificates fakes? Will this be another birther thing? You know it’s not a crazy possibility. Not with dumpy at the helm.
And with these increasingly obvious lies (or…lack of a firm grasp of reality), is this yet another crack in the armor of his psyche? Another break with reality? Like when he claimed that it stopped raining and the sun came out when he gave the speech at his inauguration. Or when he claimed to have the largest inauguration crowd in history when aerial photos clearly show the reality.
When will congressional Reps see this and do something about it? At what point do they go,”Oh wait, supporting that nonsense makes US look bad and SOME of us are up for re-election in the midterms.”?
Either way, midterms will bring more Dems to Congress and this will slow, if not stop entirely, the hemorrhage, that is the trump administration.
Could impeachment, or better yet, annulment of his presidency as a whole be far behind?
That Flight is Grounded for Good
People on the right, and even some on the left say, “I don’t want Trump to fail. Would you want the pilot of a plane to fail?”. False equivalence here. No one wants an actual pilot to fail. This assumes that the pilot is trained and qualified to fly the plane in the first place. This also assumes that the pilot doesn’t WANT the plane to crash.
Trump is another story. He is not trained, nor is he qualified to run this country. He had proven repeatedly that he is trying to bring this country down. So his failure means the country succeeds. His failure means that we maintain clean water and air. His failure means that renewable energy is available. His failure means that we have not been sold to the Russians. So yes…I want Tump to fail.
