Have you ever wondered why Trump is so fond of Putin? Have you ever wondered why the US is becoming more like Russia? It’s because Trump loves strong rulers (aka dictators). If we purely want efficiency, dictatorships are the way to go. There is no debating or considering different options, the dictator dispenses with those inconvenient tasks. Therefore, we see no debate required to:
- Tear down the East Wing of the White House;
- Go to war with Iran;
- Have Elon Musk dismantle much of our government;
- Have occupied some of our cities by various military-type entities to get us used to martial law.
There are many more examples. Trump is using ICE and the National Guard as his paramilitary to get us used to being occupied. These people are also making us fearful so that we will be compliant and cooperative. It is scary to think of the conversations between Trump and Putin. Putin could not have found a better way to take over this country without it even seeming that way. Tearing down part of the White House should be a wakeup call. VOTE and vote EARLY.

I just watched a section of the Daily Show with Jon Steward https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdmdGTrJ2nI interviewing reporters from the Washington Post, about their interview of Trump. Trump sees himself in league with the great tyrants of history, Napoleon, Stalin, Mao, Hitler, not because these were good men or great rulers, but because they were powerful, very powerful. That’s were his head is at. We’re not nearly done with him, and I fear the worst is yet to come.
What’s the scoop on Trixie? Do we have a timetable for her return or do we need to mobilize? Inquiring minds want to know.
