You have to hand it to “The Man.”
He is a record-setter — the second U.S. president to be elected to a non-consecutive second term.
He is the first president to be impeached twice… and, importantly, acquitted twice. Is that like there is no there, there?
He is the president with the most criminal charges (88, according to my phone).
He is the president with the most felony convictions (34, by my phone).
Still, he’s been elected president by a majority of Americans. Makes one ask the question… Why?
I postulate that it is because the majority of Americans can recognize bulls--- when they see it, or smell it. If it looks like a duck…
It also reminds me of something infamous in Maryland, named the “Biden Treatment.” Thinking of the Biden Treatment, the first thing that comes to my mind is a plot from the movie “From Here To Eternity” (the “Army” movie set in Hawaii in the months leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the start of World War II.
In the 1953 film, Private Robert E. Lee “Prew” Prewitt (a lone-wolf career soldier, bugler and, at one time, a professional boxer), played by Montgomery Clift, is getting “the treatment” for refusing to box in the regimental intramurals, perpetrated on him by Captain Dana “Dynamite” Holmes, the villain.
Personally I think Joe Biden could have played that part — no problem, the caricatures being interchangeable. Americans like fair play and an “equal playing field.”
Generally, they empathize with the victim, and get mad when they don’t see it (a fair playing field).
Another record set by President Trump is three assassination attempts. I love the female apparatchik’s comment that this third attempt (allegedly by Cole Thomas Allen) was a Trump (MAGA) “false flag” operation. Like I’m going to get my “vote for” advice from a communist minion leftist with a “mini-mind...”
The Democrats are doing a great job (great job) of building sympathy and adamantly turning out the vote for President Trump. I don’t know of anyone who does it better. Wasn’t that a song title? Carly Simon? “Nobody Does It Better.”
Finally, speaking of mini-Bolshevik minds, let’s not forget the teachers unions, and the communist holiday, May Day.
Oh! Our third (alleged) assassin, Cole Thomas Allen — he was a teacher, wasn’t he? An awarded, lauded teacher, or did I just dream that up to fit the story line?
Something I find extremely satisfying to watch on YouTube is the number of teachers who are openly advocating for the death of our president on social media.
Then, duh, like the schools didn’t know, but then they (the teachers) eventually get fired. Watching the “ruined my life tears…” well, I find that... apropos.
Sixty-six percent of students in the United States are not reading at a proficient level by the time they reach the fourth-grade.
I believe it’s true the communists — remember the red flags at the No Kings protests? — like a dumbed-down population. School boards across the country closed the schools, so children could attend the May Day protests. Hmm, appears like they are “in bed” with the communists.
Then they use our tax money to furnish transportation for children — down to beginning grades — to attend pro-Marxist, anarchist, anti-government rallies.
What was it? Oh, yeah — Asheville closed schools so children could attend this “important” event — important for the indoctrination — not education — of children.
Is that what’s called a level “playing field?”
Is that what Thomas Jefferson envisioned public education for?
It’s indoctrination, not the ability to analyze and form facts cognitively.
Stupid people believe their end justifies the means, and they have a moral duty to force their beliefs upon the rest of us (the majority).
They are not smart enough to know — in their arrogant ignorance — that they are, in fact, stupid. The stupid don’t know they are stupid.
As Mini Pearl might say, you keep creating that empathy, “you’ll hear?”
We’ll keep winning elections... Have a “blessed day!”
