I've been working on a short essay on "denial" - as in Peter's denial of knowing Jesus and Trumps denial of knowing Putin... or David Duke, or....
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

don;t think it matters to anyone but you
remember, Mr Trump shooting people? ..... doesn't matter to these folks
ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions

I did a Google search to find the days that Donald Trump did not lie. Billions of entries, Trillions of Terabytes of information.... and they cannot be found. They don't exist.

This is new to me: there is a hashtag out there calling it Trump's #scampaign. Running for President for fun and profit. All told, according to the Associated Press, "Trump's campaign had plunged at least $6.2 million back into Trump corporate products and services." Those expenses aside, he has few staffers and little campaign infrastructure. One GOP consultant called the whole thing a "scampaign."

I've long suspected and said I thought he was scamming and never wanted to be president.

TRUMP SUPPORTERS SMEAR THE KHAN FAMILY: The Post overview of the escalating battle between Trump and the Khans serves up this distasteful nugget:
Late Sunday, Trump supporters, including longtime adviser Roger Stone, circulated unsubstantiated accusations from an anti-Islam website about Khizr Khan. Stone tweeted a link to a post that, among other things, accuses Khan of being a Muslim Brotherhood agent who wants to advance sharia law.
How long until Trump goes there? - WaPo. Given Trump's penchant for retweeting neo-nazis, I suspect it won't be long. (BTW, Roger Stone is Paul Manafort's business partner.)

The VFW joins the Trump-Khan flap: Election year or not, the VFW will not tolerate anyone berating a Gold Star family member for exercising his or her right of speech or expression," said Brian Duffy, the national commander of the country's oldest and largest war veterans organization, referring to families who have lost relatives in wars.

Defending Trump has now taken a retro turn into the absurd. Trump Super PAC: Khizr Khan’s son... to serve’ under ‘President Trump’ "If that ban had been in place 30, 40 years ago, then the son of Mr. Khan would not have been allowed to serve." They are in the belly of this beast too deep now. Their only exit will be out the demon's ass.

i do not believe there is an ego in the universe or the underverse large enough to try and scam America during a presidential run
ignorance is the enemy
