Satanic Rituals at Our Southern Border
July 12, 2019
Vice President Mike Pence toured a Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas on July 12, 2019 where he observed hundreds of men standing in crowded cages.
“The stench was horrendous,” White House pool reporter Josh Dawsey wrote of the brief visit to an outdoor portal at the McAllen Border Station.
Dawsey reported that nearly 400 men “..were housed in sweltering cages so crowded it would have been impossible for all of them to lie down. Some of the detainees shouted to reporters that they had been held 40 days or longer and complained that they were hungry.”
“This is tough stuff,” Pence said at a news conference later. “I was not surprised by what I saw,” he said. “I knew we’d see a system that was overwhelmed.”
This, on the eve of a planned siege in communities around Atlanta, Baltimore, Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and San Francisco where representatives from the Trump Gestapo are poised to raid neighborhoods where suspected undocumented immigrants may be living. The raids are expected to start Sunday (July 14) and continue through July 18.
Instead of fixing the existing system that is already overwhelmed, Trump and his thugs have doubled down with Satan to intimidate and dehumanize our newest neighbors, and to create, nurture and perpetuate an atmosphere of fear among residents in these communities.
Separate parents from their children? Only Satan would approve of that.
Trump’s claim that the ICE raids are targeted to ‘look for bad players’? In a press conference on July 12, Trump said, “We’re really looking for criminals as much as we can. Trying to find the criminal population, which has been coming into this country the last 10 years.”
He touted his administration’s removal of members of the violent gang MS-13, claiming he’d deported them “by the thousands” and further stated that ‘we are also looking for people who came into our country not through a process, they just walked over a line. They have to leave.’
I’ve lived in the U.S. for many years, and I’ve experienced a great deal of good, bad and ugly.
This entire Trump administration charade centered on MS-13 as a justification for extreme immigration enforcement is the ugliest of ugly – it clearly is directly connected to Satan (a.k.a. Beelzebub; Mephistopheles; Lucifer; Prince of Darkness; Ash-Shaytan; Diablo; Devil), and it is clearly disconnected from facts or reality.
Trump – true to form – is scapegoating any and all people with connections to Central or South American as ‘Undesirables’ (or worse).
Pick your label: There is no place in American ideology which supports rounding up a class of residents and subjecting them to subhuman treatment with no process of law.
Mike Pence, who was raised in a religious household and educated in parochial schools, has described himself as “a Christian, a conservative and a Republican, in that order,” and as “a born-again, evangelical Catholic.”
If Pence is unwilling or unable to step forward to demand a stop to these Satanic atrocities and to organize a strategic fix to our existing immigration enforcement system which is already overwhelmed, then it is clear that he has sold his soul to Satan.
How very sad….
Donald Trump is an Expert on Immigration Issues
July 8, 2019
No one understands the nuances of immigration better than Donald Trump.
Donald’s research begins in 1996 when Melania Knauss — also known as Melanija Knavs — arrived in the U.S. from Slovenia on Aug. 27, 1996, on a B1/B2 visitor visa. She was 26 at the time, highly regarded by those who knew her in her native Slovenia as quite intelligent, beautiful and very ambitious.
Melania was paid for 10 modeling jobs in the United States in 1996 before obtaining the necessary documents to legally work in the country, earning $20,056 before she obtained an H-1B work visa on Oct. 18, 1996, according to an investigative report completed and published by the AP in 2016.
The report, which AP said was based on accounting ledgers, contracts and other related documents, reveals that “the modeling assignments would have been outside the bounds of her visitor visa.”
In March 2001, Melania was issued a green card in the U.S. through the EB-1 program, which is sometimes called a “genius visa” or an “Einstein visa.”
EB-1 Visas are intended to encourage individuals who demonstrate extraordinary accomplishment in their field of endeavor, and/or sustained national or international acclaim to become permanent U.S. residents.
Melania Knauss married Donald Trump in January 2005; she is now known as Melania Trump. She became a U.S. citizen in July 2006.
Viktor and Amalija Knavs are Melania’s parents. Viktor was born in 1944, and the majority of his working career involves automotive transportation activities. Amalija worked as a pattern maker at a textile factory. They are now retired.
Several reliable sources report that Viktor and Amalija primarily reside in the U.S., and their immigration status is undetermined. They may be here on an IR-5 visa, which grants legal permanent residency to parents of a U.S. citizen.
Meanwhile, with the expertise he has acquired from his own family situation, President Trump has guided his own administration to become vehemently opposed almost all immigration to the U.S., particularly to extended-family chain migration, which is exactly how Melania’s parents apparently have established permanent residency in the U.S.
Although POTUS Trump apparently has no direct experience in the separation of immigrant children from their parents, he believes that his overall experience and knowledge fully qualifies him to an expert level on immigration policy.
Amazing stuff, isn’t it?
Border Security
February 15, 2019
I’ve been looking into the border situation. My goal is to reach an understanding of what’s really going on, because the political rhetoric has my head spinning. Here is what I found:
Depending on which source(s) you are comfortable with, you may agree that the 1,900+-mile border between the United States and Mexico is the most heavily crossed – both legally and illegally – international boundary in the world.
Today – mid-February 2019 — barriers which block people and vehicles along 650 miles of the U.S.-Mexico border are in place and operational. These barriers include stretches of steel and barbed wire, fortified with infrared cameras, imposing watchtowers, and blinding floodlights, and it is patrolled by thousands of guards. These 650 miles represent a four-fold increase over 2005, when there were 120 miles.
About 1,300 miles of the U.S.-Mexico border lacks fencing because the Rio Grande forms a natural border along most of those miles. Remaining sections are in rugged, inhospitable terrain, where building a barrier would not only be impractical, but fail the most rudimentary cost-benefit analysis.
The legislation President Donald Trump needs to build his promised wall along the U.S. southern border with Mexico was passed in 2006 and remains on the books.
The Secure Fence Act was introduced in Sept. 2006 by Rep Peter King (R-NY) and was quickly passed by Congress on a bi-partisan basis. The House passed the Fence Act 283 to 138 on September 14, 2006; the Senate passed the Fence Act 80 to 19 on September 29, 2006; and the Act was signed into law by Pres. George W. Bush on October 26, 2006.
The goals of The Secure Fence Act of 2006 envisioned helping to secure America’s border with Mexico to decrease illegal entry, drug trafficking, and security threats by building about 700 miles of physical barriers along the Mexico-United States border. Additionally, the law authorized more vehicle barriers, checkpoints, and lighting as well as authorizing the Department of Homeland Security to increase the use of advanced technology such as cameras, satellites, and unmanned aerial vehicles to reinforce infrastructure at the border.
The initial concept imagined in the King-sponsored law anticipated a continuous barrier of double-layered fencing with a sufficient gap that a vehicle could be driven between the layers.
Once it became clear that the geographic and topographic diversity along the border could not accommodate a simple double-layered fence, Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison (R, TX) worked with the Department of Homeland Security to propose an amendment to give DHS discretion to decide what type of fence was appropriate in different areas.
The law was subsequently amended to read,
“Nothing in this paragraph shall require the Secretary of Homeland Security to install fencing, physical barriers, roads, lighting, cameras, and sensors in a particular location along an international border of the United States, if the Secretary determines that the use or placement of such resources is not the most appropriate means to achieve and maintain operational control over the international border at such location.”
By mid-2011, the Department of Homeland Security reported that fencing for 649 miles of border had been completed. As described in the 2007 Hutchinson amendment, much of the total fence reported by DHS consists of vehicle barriers and single-layer pedestrian fence, deemed most appropriate at those locations by DHS.
Purists looked back to the original King-sponsored bill and decried the type of fencing DHS was counting as “completed”. They said that vehicle barriers and single-layer pedestrian fences can’t meet the amended letter of the law.
Yet, according to Customs and Border Patrol reports at that time, the border barriers they included in their report include: ‘Post on Rail’ steel set in concrete; Steel Picket-style fence set in concrete; Vehicle Bollards similar to those found around federal buildings; ‘Normandy-style’ steel beam vehicle barriers; and concrete ‘Jersey Walls’ reinforced with steel mesh.
I don’t know much about barriers, but these sound pretty substantial and imposing to me.
Many people will take exception to something President Obama said in 2011 when addressing the issue of border security. I include this here because it is emblematic of the political discourse we seem to have devolved toward in the past decade or two:
“We have gone above and beyond what was requested by the Republicans who said they supported broader reform as long as we got serious about enforcement. All the stuff they asked for, we’ve done. But even though we’ve answered these concerns, I’ve got to say I suspect there are still going to be some who are trying to move the goal posts on us one more time.”
“They’ll want a higher fence,” Obama said. “Maybe they’ll need a moat. Maybe they want alligators in the moat. They’ll never be satisfied. And I understand that. That’s politics.”
Political rhetoric is to be expected, and most of us prefer it to be witty, sharp and to the point.
There really is no place in a civilized society for the sort of caustic and unforgiving political hate speech and outright lies we all too frequently seem to encounter in 2019.
Build The Wall?
January 23, 2019
Ever ready to incite a riot and to encourage acts of violence, President Trump recently tweeted, “Four people in Nevada viciously robbed and killed by an illegal immigrant who should not have been in our Country… We need a powerful Wall!”
[Background: Wilbur Martinez-Guzman, 19, has been jailed in Carson City, Nevada since January 19 on an immigration violation. Federal immigration authorities said that Guzman entered the U.S. illegally from El Salvador. Guzman is a prime suspect in 3 home invasion burglaries in Nevada over a 6 day period during which four people were shot and killed.]
No, Mr. President. We probably don’t need a Wall. Certainly not because of this particular case.
What we need is elected officials who consistently adhere to the highest standards of mature, honest and responsible leadership.
And, we need our elected officials to separate day-to-day federal government operations from capital projects.
We need immediate restoration of funding for the day-to-day operations in all sectors of our federal government, at the same time putting debate and deliberations over capital projects into the traditional federal budget process.
Compromise on Federal Government Shutdown?
January 19, 2019
What is there about the simple concept of separating day-to-day operations from long-term planning that our elected federal officials seem unwilling or unable to comprehend?
Our current federal budgetary process was set into law by the 1974 Budget Control Act, based on a federal fiscal year which runs from October 1st to September 30th. Thus our current Federal Fiscal Year — known as FY 2019 — runs from October 1, 2018 until September 30, 2019.
In February 2018, President Trump – through the Office of Management and Budget – submitted a proposed budget to Congress for FY 2019. The operating budget for FY 2019 was discussed, deliberated and adopted, and it needs to be funded.
There just isn’t any room in the process for the President – or any other elected official — to demand modifications to the current FY budget prior to approving ongoing funding for current government operations.
While it is unfortunately true that Congress doesn’t always follow the schedule as proscribed in the 1974 Budget Control Act, the proper time for the President to present new spending initiatives to Congress is during the annual federal budget deliberations process which typically begins in January when the OMB presents a proposed FY budget to the President.
President Trump’s current demands are only legitimately appropriate as a component of a proposed FY 2020 federal budget proposal.
PLEASE: Let’s get the federal government back into its day-to-day operation by providing necessary current funding, and bring the debate over additional border funding where it belongs – in the discussions and deliberation toward a FY 2020 federal budget.
The Trump Trifecta
October 26, 2018
Since taking office in January 2017, Donald Trump has stood with House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to proclaim various ‘victories’ for the American people. Here are what seem to be the top three, A.K.A. “The Trifecta”:
- Complicit with Russia, Saudi Arabia and several other suspect regimes. Trump has continued to send public messages which downplay and/or absolve bad actors from behaviors which are contrary to existing international standards.
One clear reason: Trump — and his close advisor Jared Kushner — is involved in highly leveraged real estate development. Neither Trump nor Kushner have the liquidity or availability of traditional financing sources to invest their own money. Instead, they are forced to chase shady money from around the world, including huge sums of money sourced from Saudi Arabia, Russia, China, etc.
Essentially, Trump (along with the Kushner Companies) is beholden to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman; Vladimir Putin; various Chinese investors; along with ‘dark money’ sources in Cyprus, Panama and the Cayman Islands, among others.
2. The “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (TCJA) was passed in late 2017 incorporating some modest temporary individual and small business tax cuts while focusing in on very substantial big business and corporate tax cuts.
Traditional economic models, developed and refined over countless economic cycles, encourage tax cuts and deficit spending during economic downturns as a means to stimulate economic growth. During times of economic expansion, increased government revenue from tax collections is then used to pay down public debt and help stabilize the economy.
N.B. There was a strong case to be made for a modest corporate tax cut as the U.S. economy began to improve post 2012; there was zero legitimate case to be made for the magnitude of the corporate tax cut which was a cornerstone of the 2017 TCJA.
The foundation of the TCJA was a promise that slashing corporate taxes from a maximum 35% rate to a 21% cap would result in dramatic increases in capital investment, resulting in job creation and wage growth. Americans for Tax Reform, a vocal advocate for the plan, generated promises of employee bonuses, increased wages, increased retirement contributions and/or expanded business operations as a result of the TCJA.
Actual outcomes of the Tax Cuts? Record stock buybacks; extraordinary executive compensation; flat employee compensation; and continued failure of venerable American corporations.
Definitive proof of the foolishness of cutting taxes in a time of economic expansion? A rapidly expanding federal budget deficit. According to the final monthly Treasury Statement for Fiscal Year 2018 (the year that ended on 9/30/2018), the deficit was $779 Billion — a $113 Billion (17%) increase over the$666 Billion deficit recorded from FY 2017.
Perhaps most egregious to the American people? Mitch McConnell is blaming self-funded safety net programs [Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid] as the root cause of our rising federal deficit. Visualize McConnell as he does a little smile; looks straight into the camera; and then blatantly lies to the American people. Was he also lying when he took the Oath of Office?
3. Incendiary, Irrational and Emotionally-Inspired Immigration Policy:
Right or wrong, the U.S. economy depends on immigrant workers – documented or undocumented. Industry sectors which rely on immigrants for between 1/4 and 1/2 of their employment needs include: agriculture; hospitality; construction; textile, apparel and leather manufacturing; food manufacturing; and private households.
Through a series of small moves that add up to dramatic change, the Trump administration has bypassed Congress to create new process and procedures which could have lasting effects on how the US welcomes and evaluates immigrants.
In his election campaign in June 2015, Trump told us, “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists…”
By painting virtually all immigrants with a broad brush as criminals; as a national security threat to the U.S.; as bad people; as people who steal jobs from Americans; he has created a hostile environment on the world stage, offering fear and fallacies with no attempt to find viable and sustainable solutions.
In late October 2018, facing a ‘caravan of migrants’ moving north from Central America toward the U.S. Southern border, Trump has proclaimed that there are ‘criminals and people of Middle Eastern descent among the migrants within the caravan’ and has pointed to it as evidence that the U.S. has weak immigration laws. He has also threatened to cut off aid to Central American countries in response to the caravan.
An internal report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Inspector General found that the Trump administration’s “zero tolerance” crackdown at the border in early 2018 was troubled from the outset by planning shortfalls, widespread communication failures and administrative indifference to the separation of small children from their parents.
It has been said that the Trump Child Separation Policy is related to the worst abuses of humanity in history. Child separation is connected by the same evil that separated families during slavery, and which dislocated tribes and broke up Native American families.
What’s the point?
The point is that differences of opinion are a cornerstone of society, and a critical ingredient of humanity.
The very essence of Debate relies on formal discussion on a particular topic.
In an honest debate, opposing arguments are put forward to argue for opposite viewpoints. Genuine and honest debate can occur in public meetings, academic institutions, and in legislative assemblies.
A genuine debate requires some ground rules, particularly in the areas of logical consistency and factual accuracy, yet it also allows some degree of emotional appeal to the audience.
Sadly, today’s discussions on topics of importance to the American People seem to lack any rules about civility, logic or even factual accuracy.
Turn on the television and we find absolutism, tribalism and a “win at any cost” approach to delicate yet important societal issues. Dialogue has effectively been replaced by diatribe.
Worse, people can select news sources which support and reinforce their biases, finding comfort in “being right” by selective listening or watching. No time or need to consider other options when the platform has been fully developed to mirror your comfort zone.
Add to this dilemma the continuing disenfranchisement of American adults from the political process.
More adult males in America today are able to recite NFL statistics than are able explain issues facing American society, and women are not far behind.
Voter turnout in the United States fluctuates in national elections. In recent elections, about 60% of the voting eligible population votes during presidential election years, and about 40% votes during midterm elections. Turnout is lower for odd year, primary and local elections.
If we compare national voter participation in the 2016 presidential election to viewership of the 2016 Superbowl, we find a dead heat at around 112 Million.
Not necessarily the same people, but it does strike me that we have a real disconnect between the American public and our governance model, perhaps helping to explain why our system seems to be in need of some serious adjustments at this point in time.
“We Fed an Island”
September 15, 2018
While U.S. President Trump continues to blame the people of Puerto Rico and their elected local leadership for delays, inefficiencies and various failures in the response to the aftermath of Hurricane Maria (2017), Trump is lavish with praise for the wonderful response by his administration.
“I think that Puerto Rico was an incredible, unsung success,” Mr. Trump said. “I actually think it is one of the best jobs that’s ever been done with respect to what this is all about.”
Meanwhile, other sources do not agree with President Trump’s assessment.
One of the true unsung heroes involved in the Island’s recovery from Hurricane Maria is José Andrés, a chef and restaurateur who helped organize others from the food industry to form a veritable army comprised of both professionals and volunteers to feed residents, medical professionals and other disaster response workers.
A year after the initial response to Maria began, José Andrés has released a book reflecting on his experiences and lessons learned from the disaster response.
This article from the Washington Post describes his passion and introduces the book in a manner I wish I was able:
Migration, Immigration, Refugees and Asylum
June 21, 2018
Let’s step back, look in the mirror and be really honest.
Who knows someone who desires to abruptly leave home in the dark of the night; taking only what they can carry; dragging along young children who are already traumatized; and expecting to travel hundreds – maybe thousands – of miles to a strange land where they don’t speak their language and where they know no one?
People who fall into this dilemma are sometimes called: Refugees; Migrants; and/or Asylum seekers. Whatever label seems most appropriate, they tend to number around one million people annually across the globe.
The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) was created in 1950 to help millions of Europeans who had fled or lost their homes as an outcome of WWII.
Over the ensuing 68 years, UNHCR has become the premier expert on migration, working with 128 countries and assisting well over 50 million refugees to successfully restart their lives.
Mixed movements (or mixed migration) refers to flows of people traveling together, over similar routes and using the same means of transport, yet often for different reasons.
The men, women and children traveling in this manner often have either been forced from their homes by armed conflict or persecution, or are on the move in search of a safer (better) life.
People traveling as part of mixed movements have varying needs and may include asylum-seekers, refugees, stateless people, victims of trafficking, unaccompanied or separated children, and migrants in an irregular situation. Mixed movements are often complex, and can present challenges for all those involved.
An asylum-seeker is someone whose request for sanctuary has yet to be processed. National asylum systems are in place to determine who qualifies for international protection. During mass movements of refugees, usually as a result of conflict or violence, it is not always possible or necessary to conduct individual interviews with every asylum seeker who crosses a border. These groups are often called ‘prima facie’ refugees.
Donald “King of the Con Men” Trump has the attention span of a gnat, the moral turpitude of a ‘made man’ and the integrity of a Carnival Barker.
Mr. Trump has leveraged his expertise as a Carnival Barker to master the classic Shell Game which relies on distraction to temporarily fool the audience toward a false conclusion.
For weeks, Trump — in cahoots with his acolytes and sycophants – has maintained that potential asylum-seekers entering the U.S. at legal border crossings would not be prosecuted, and would be processed in turn.
Sounds good, right? Except these elected and appointed U.S. officials concurrently made it virtually impossible for these migrant asylum seekers to cross the border legally and enter their petition for sanctuary.
These elected and appointed U.S. officials have consistently denied that their evil policy to criminalize mothers fleeing unimaginable atrocities in their home countries and accompanied by young children who cross into the U.S. at any place other than a legal border crossing – even those who tried to enter at an official entry point but were prevented by arbitrary and capricious gate keepers – was intentional, discriminatory and dangerous.
Most egregious: We have recently learned that Stephen Miller, the White House senior advisor who is the architect of many of the Trump administration policies on immigration, is the great-grandson of a Jewish immigrant who fled the poverty and pogroms of the Russian Empire in the early 1900s.
Stephen Miller may have a serious learning disability which has prevented him from learning the lessons of history which help inform the thoughts and actions of informed, compassionate and successful servant leaders. Perhaps Mr. Miller needs some medical intervention which could help him focus on humane, considerate and civilized thoughts and behaviors?
Trump issues executive order ending family separations
June 20, 2018
This event — June 20, 2018 — represents a fabulous ‘photo op’ for Trump, and it results in a Pyrrhic victory for oppressed and victimized mothers and their minor children who are fleeing horrific conditions in their homelands of Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala -the so-called Northern Triangle.
Read between the lines of Trump’s Executive Order and you will find little change in the draconian American policy of abusing and torturing women and children.
Trump and his administration have embraced a tactical wholesale approach to focus, apprehend and detain the most vulnerable – and least dangerous – people who seek asylum in the U.S.
Trump has – and continues to – proclaim that “..most immigrant families and minors from Central America who arrive unlawfully at the border cannot be detained together or removed together – only released. These are crippling loopholes that cause family separation which we don’t want.”
Probably not true, and even if true, completely irrelevant.
Statistics tell us that: (1) Immigrants who come to United States seeking asylum from horrible conditions in their countries of origin are generally women with minor children who pose little to no criminal or other risk to the U.S.; (2) Immigrants who come to the U.S. seeking work to support families left behind in their country of origin are predominantly men who strive to make enough money to send for the rest of their family to bring them into a positive environment.
Yes, each of these scenarios illustrates a likely violation of current U.S. immigration laws.
However, let’s not lose sight that the foundation of immigration laws of the U.S. is the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952, sometimes known as the McCarran–Walter Act. Yes, 1952.
Parts of that Act remain in place today. It has been amended several times and was modified substantially by the Immigration and Nationality Services Act of 1965. Yes, 1965.
No doubt, there exist a small percentage of people who illegally enter the U.S. with nefarious intent. It seems that most of these ‘bad actors’ do not travel with children; are not female; and do not enter over the southern border.
If Trump — and his band of complicit Republican cronies – really desire to improve our national security through better immigration strategy and policy, they need to focus on fact-based, root cause analysis, and to invest in solutions which utilize “evidence-based targeting,” an approach which uses objective data to focus limited resources toward those individuals who pose the highest risk of danger to the U.S.
Evidence-Based Targeting is a strategic approach which requires planning; careful research; and a blind approach to race, religion, gender, national origin or other irrelevant factors.
Yes, Mr. Trump, we are in lock-step with you on secure borders. We – even those of us who are not registered Republicans – demand secure borders and we want to have modern policies and procedures in place which keep bad actors out of the U.S.
That said, we need to ask you to stop acting as a bully, stop picking on defenseless women and children, and start focusing on Evidence-Based Targeting to help protect our domestic security.
And, concurrently, it would be really great if you could work with Congress to modernize that 1952 McCarran–Walter Act which probably made sense back then, but seems to need some tweaks to address the huge demographic changes which have occurred since then.
Please, Mr. Trump: Stop the puerile ‘Beavis & Butt-Head’ rhetoric and start acting like a leader.
Another branch of our armed forces?
I just can’t imagine an Industrial Engineer who would look at the current structure of the Pentagon and the U.S. military and not conclude that we have an extraordinarily inefficient approach to defense.
Air, land and sea. Sounds good, right?
Except that we have 5 branches which overlap, compete with each other directly and indirectly, and don’t always communicate well.
Now, the Master Obfuscator and Distracter-in-Chief wants to start a 6th branch!
I can only conclude that The Donald is running wild trying to divert attention away from some of his self-created demons: Immigration; His war on Canada; His new love affair with Kim Jong Un; A ‘tax reform’ plan which will leave America bankrupt; The deterioration and ultimate disintegration of the American health care system; The ‘Russia thing’; Cyber security intrusions and risks across the entire U.S. public and private sector; Rapidly deteriorating physical infrastructure across the U.S.; Escalating gun violence, the NRA and 21st century gun control; Mueller and his ‘Russian Witch Hunt Hoax’; Stormy Daniels; and Dozens of other critical issues which need to be addressed in an honest, responsible and strategic fashion.
Donald J. Trump has the attention span of a gnat, the moral turpitude of a ‘made man’ and the integrity of a Carnival Barker. Despite that, he is our POTUS, and he continues to dash along his path toward fooling many of the people most of the time.
