THE ABSURD TIMES
What a Trump!

Dump this Trump
OK, OK. So many upset that I ended this thing, so here is at least one more. I figured I'd let everybody know what they are really dealing with in this strange being so often called Mr. President. I may just revert to a previous style of introducing some topics with commentary and then publishing an interview or two to back it up.
In recent news: Scientific American, first published in 1845 has just endorsed a Political Candidate, Joe Biden, but simply because Trump denies science, or at least promotes its denial.
No particular order – no coherence due this slimy subject anyway nor is any possible. I have also included what I wanted to be footnotes, but as a result of how these online "Blogs" (I've always hated that word for some reason) work, these footnotes wound up being endnotes. I think they are significant, but that is just my opinion (which is better than most people's).
Still, we have a few ruling forces at play here: his narcissism and his sociopathy. It is a pretty foul combination. First, since he is the best there ever was (at anything), he deserves anything he wants. Second, every decision is governed by only one consideration or question: "What's in it for me?" Nothing else is of any importance. People talk about his family as if he cared about them, but they forget that what they see as filial relations is really ownership. He owns them. They are the "fruit of his loins," so to speak. They are his property, whether they realize it or not. (I'm not about to go into that mess and further; after all, what's in it for me?)
As far as convincing anyone is concerned, here is a Republican strategist:

Even if every source went public about the disgraceful things Trump said about our men and women in the military, the Trump Q cult still wouldn't believe any of it.
It has long been clear that neither of us could ever influence the other, facts remain stubborn things for both of us. I don't know why we pay any attention to each other on Twitter, but stranger things have happened, hence the 2016 election.
I can still find things out though. For example, Trump said that people who joined the armed forces were "losers," and those who were killed "suckers" Or was it vice versa?[i] So, was he wrong?[ii] It was certainly a very Marxian position to take, I'm sure of that. See, I know you can't believe stuff that is on the Internet, but I found this in a book – several books, in fact. See, when the rich of two factions cannot work things out, they send the working class people of each faction to kill one another, and this works to the mutual benefit of both factions' wealthy. It certainly sells weapons.
Now this isn't just Das Kapital, but also the German Ideology. An easier book to read about this sort of stuff is THE IRON HEEL, by Jack London. It talks about all the same sort of stuff that Trump seems to believe, only it is much better time spent if you want to check it out for yourself. I promise, there is no ice and snow to deal with, no dangers of nature – only dangers posed by fellow humans.
Another good book to read is REVELATIONS. The original handwriting is very messy and, again a book tells me, the author had a habit of keeping strange looking mushrooms around him, but it is still a lot of fun. Be sure to get the King James version as it is translated by a very motley crew of scholars under the direction of Sir Francis Bacon and commissioned by, of course, King James. I have been told that this King is still remembered as "the wisest foole in Christendom," at least when he wasn't head first in mud caused by falling off his horse while drunk.
Hunter Thompson liked the writing, but Ronald Reagan actually believed in it, every word.[iii] Ronnie thought the end of the world was coming, but Trump cannot be taken seriously as an Anti-Christ. No, for people who believe in some sort of Apocalypse, and of those who did know what the hell he was talking about, the only one of that type that I would place any credence in is Sir Isaac Newton. He said not BEFORE 2040. He didn't give and end date however, but we do now know that the date is >= 2040.
No, the fruits of Trump's loins are not the anti-Christ either, although some held out hope that Barron would metamorphosize. He'd have to be 60 years old, however, and shows no signs of anything. Of course, if you were the anti-Christ, I'm sure you would hide it as well, but 60 years old seems to be stretching it.
Trump does have some biblical traits, however. For example, if a woman grabbethed him by his secrets, he might just stone her then and there, or perhaps cut off her hand; in fact, stone her – with stones (a bt of repetition I never came to terms with until I heard about the strange mushrooms the original author used). Still, in 2040, he would be over 100 years old (if we let him) and that simply stretches things too far. No, clearly, he is a Marxist – no two ways about it. (I read it in a book.)
By The way, these things lately have been written perhaps a paragraph or so at a time, so sometimes new things surface in the mean time. This is one of those times. It seems that Trump knew all along how deadly this virus in and how quickly and easily it spreads at least by the end of January. All of his public lies after that were lapped up by Fox news and swallowed whole by his low life followers, or "base". Furthermore, Bob Woodward recorded the statements, legally, while nobody else in the White House knew about it.
People are already criticizing Woodward for not reporting it immediately. That can be answered easily: even after these "relations," people attending Trump's new spate of rallies are interviewed and too many, in fact all, say "this whole Covid thing is a hoax". I heard the word "hoax" used several times AFTER THESE QUOTES APPEARED. So how would making his "thinking" public make any difference?
We do have a new top secret nuclear system he designed and the rest of the world knows nothing about it, except Bob Woodward and us. You are not allowed to tell anyone else or you will be neutralized, so don't mention it.
We just learned that we have a very small death rate increase due to this new plague. Our increase is only about 10% or so, while other countries have much larger ones. I'm not allowed to tell you the exact countries (actually, I forgot them) but, if a country had say one death and someone else died lately, that would be a 100% increase. We, on the other hand, already have 140,000, give or take 10,000, so another 30,000 deaths would only be a 10% increase. So, every day, we are getting better and better. Oh yes, back in March I predicted over a quarter of a million deaths as a result of this pandemic. It was based strictly on mathematical intuition and had nothing to do with knowledge of any sort of medical nature. At the time, it was resented as preposterous (except for one person who ventured millions). Well, it seems that I underestimated, but who cares?
That, combined with out new top secret nuclear weapons system should make all of you rest easier.
It seems incomplete to stop without warning what will happen with a second term (which is certainly possible). One day, recently, he listed all the Fox shows he watched that day. It amounted to five hours, at least. In addition, I was certainly not masochistic to watch them, but one fairly sane news program played excerpts from these shows. It happened right after the revelations and tapes from Woodward's book. He mentions the coming pandemic clearly, in his own voice, and yet one sees people who still shout out that "it's a hoax. It's meant to destroy America!" They are to the point now where they won't even believe it when they know he said it was real and dangerous!
I later spent time trying to help such people who were of that ilk and willfully went off to Viet Nam in a patriotic fever. Years later, they experienced symptoms of PTSD, hallucinations that frightened them for their own lives, and saw more sane ones talking about the things he did, crying, and punching his fist into the wall of the room (conscience). It was at the VA, and in the substance abuse section, but the abuse was merely a symptom, a coping mechanism for what happened to them and what they did.
The people that spat on them when they returned did no good for anyone. That should have been reserved for Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon (whose secret plan to win was to expand the war to every other country in the neighborhood). Nixon gave us Pol Pot, not socialism. (On the other hand Nixon started the EPA, believe it or not, but today it is considered not "cost-effective".) Donald Trump is dismantling it right now.
At the same time, we see the west coast burning down[iv] (of course, Democrats). In one week, Colorado set it's own record from snowfall and a record high temperature in a single week. Of course, like the pandemic, the climate stuff is another hoax!
Finally, the only solution for a chance at survival for the United States (and eventually the rest of the planet) is an overwhelming victory against Trump and any Republican running for office – especially the Senate. The people were so pissed off at what was going on in the country that they voted in this man in orange as a way to say "fuck you" to the "leaders". People who blame Putin are sadly mistaken -- if you were Putin you would prefer Trump in charge of the United States.
Also, a quote from another book (Good Omens, Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, Harper Collins) [too bad about the proper footnoting, who is going to say anything about it?]: "Evangelical Choir launched into Jesus Is the Telephone Repairman on the Switchboard of My Life." The older hymns are always the best, I say, how about you?
Goodbye and good luck!
[i] Many would argue that these terms apply more readily to his cult members or, as our media would have it, his "base". Looking at it from another point of view, it could also have been "involuntary servitude," and often was during the Vietnam War. The process was ended by, of all people, Richard Nixon, after a sort of raffle. The practice continued in another way through the reserve clause in Baseball (none of the other major sports) until Curt Flood won his case in the Supreme Court.
[ii] I saw this happen over the media, which, of course, one cannot believe.
[iii] I read it in a book – a collection of essays by Hunter Thompson, so it must be true.
[iv] I have read or heard that 93 or 68 percent of the forests are FEDERALLY owned. It would seems that, since the man in orange says that it is poorly managed forests (what with exploding trees – yes, trees explode and I heard this in Trump's own voice after he learned out it in Finland) is the problem, he should be managing the forests. I wonder if, at Christmas time, when people tend to bring trees inside their houses if there will be a series of exploding houses. Finally, it seems that the air there is of such a quality that it is equivalent to smoking 40 packs of cigarettes a day. The highest I ever got was 1 or 1.5 and I cannot imagine the effect of 40. Even after as a youngster riding a bicycle behind CTA diesel-powered buses combined with the effect of say 2 packs/day, I cannot imagine the effect.
