The Communist Origin of the Modern Conservative Movement VI

One of Trump's superpowers is to deflect blame. When things go wrong it is always Biden's fault or Obana's fault. Trump is also good at claiming credit for something went right when he had nothing to do with it. It was refreshing when Harry Truman said, "the buck stops here." When something went wrong in his administration, he took the blame. When Trump dodges the blame, he claims the of a passenger who is along on a ride somebody else is driving the bus. If Trump is a passenger, he is powerless to correct the problem. Trump is so busy avoiding blame he has no time to solve problems.

the only problems he ever attempts to solve are the ones that he manufactures.

he's friggin' useless...

You posted this in the "47th President" thread. Pretty much says it all.

He's utterly useless.

Trump does not solve problems he creates them. Trump got caught with his hands in the cookie jar again. He ordered his acting attorney general to go after reporters. He submitted a stack of newspapers labeled "treason." Trump would not know what treason was if it was a truck and ran over him. The cases were soon dropped after it became known that Trump had ordered their prosecution.

The picture is symbolic of what Trump has done to the country as a whole. Do you remember when politicians, both democratic and republicans, were at least reasonable people. At least they did not act out like a two-year-old. We need a new political movement BBSW (Bring Back Sanity to Washington.) It is funny that you never realize when you are living through the good old day. There is always some nasty idiot waiting in the wings to end the good old days.

The pictures don't lie and it looks like the swat team was sent to arrest a woman from taking a piece of the peeling paint from the reflecting pool. How many police officers does it take to arrest a woman a woman who took a piece of paint? Too many to count.

It gets worse the police were not enough, and the National Guard have been sent in. It is evident crime in Washington DC has increase with paint thieves running amuck.

Trump has done something like this before. In Cohen's book he relates an incident where Trump told a contract to use the cheapest paint in one of Trump's building the contractor had specked a more expensive paint. Later when they tried to wash the paint it came off. Trump sued the contractor and the paint supplier. I will bet you that the paint needed to dry a few before water went back into the reflecting pool and Trump ordered it filled anyway. Now Trump is trying to cover his ass by having people arrested. If the paint had stuck the paint thieves could not have got their souvenir. Look for Trump cult members to believe it was vandals that were responsible for the mess.

it's just the latest distraction from the Trumpstein Files...

It looks like the most wanted man in America is a woman. Her crime she put her hand in the reflecting pool and looks like she may have taken some peeled paint. She may have thought she got away with, but Trump had AI cameras installed, and her picture is all over the internet. She can run but she can't hide.

Her job is to hide the massive corruption involved in the $16 million no bid contracts. A no bid contract is acceptable for an emergency situation, but the reflecting pool was far from an emergency situation. Did I mention it was one of Trump's big donors that got the $14 million no bid contract? If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck it is probably a duck and in this case a duck that had no idea what it was doing. There are reasons we have a bidding process. One it ensures the contractor is qualified and the job is done for the best competitive price.

Trump is now claiming someone snuck in under cover of darkness and split the cover down the middle. No doubt a Russian covert action to sabotage the 250 birthday celebration.

Trump's 250-year celebration was pretty much a dud with one MAGA member hoping that he would live to see King Barron Trump. That is what separates the MAGA followers from the rest of the country. MAGA followers see nothing wrong with having a King they focus on the personality not qualification. Many of them really truly believe that God was personally responsible for Trump's election. If Trump declared himself king, they would support him. In Christianity a man can only rule if God appoints him. The founding fathers took this right away from God and declared that man would decide who ruled America. This radically notion contradicted Christianity and it is no surprise that the ancient idea is resurfacing. To be Christian you can only be ruled by a king. Many of these people are dead serious and they want to impose their religion on government. King Barron Trump is not only an idea it is their objective.

The Family has flown under the radar deliberately for many years and the head of The Family was considered the second most powerful man in Washington. All of a sudden, we are seeing a well-organized movement to take over the United States for Christ. When these people arrive at the state houses across the United States, they arrive with bills already written.

Make no doubt it this is an organized insurgency. It comes at a time when membership in Christianity is falling. We have several million-dollar churches that have only three or four members. They need a major recruiting drive, and schools have children who have not reached the age of reason. It is impossible to recruit those who have reached the age reason. Make no mistake about it, Christianity has lasted this long because they could indoctrinate the young and they don't want that power just over their member's children they want to reach into the public schools where children are a captive audience.

This is a very aggressive minority who want to control other people. Their idea of freedom is that you have the freedom to do as they tell you. They want a country that is under God's law meaning their religion. They don't believe in separation of church and state they believe their religion is the state.

Why does Christianity feel it is entitled to take over America? Jesus made no attempt to take over the government at the time. Certainly, he could have but he showed no interest. In fact, he made a separation, render unto Caeser what is Caesar and render unto me what is mine. That was the first reference of a separation between church and state.

The answer is power and control. They lust for more power over more people, and they want to control the population. This urge for more power and more control isn't about elevating Christianity it is about gaining personal power. They may delude themselves that this about Christianity, but it is only about power. This is just a giant recruiting tool, more people more power.

That is a good point churches should pay their share in taxes. When the constitution was written there was a movement to make preachers paid by the government. Now sense churches don't pay taxes you can make an argument that the government is paying the salary of preachers with the money they don't collect in taxes. Churches in America are now primarily political organizations and religious organizations second. It would be easy to take their tax exemption away, but politicians don't want to bite the hand that hands them votes.

When Trump told the Christian right they would never have to worry about another election, one has to wonder what he meant by that. Then you see a picture of all the Christian right leaders in the room placing their hands on Trump who is a germaphobe according to him. Many of the Christian right believe Trump was picked by God to be president. That takes us halfway to justifying Trump being made king and creating a royal family. There is little difference in in the Christian right believing God appointing Trump president and appointing him king. I wonder which one of the Christian right got the fax from God that he was appointing Trump president, one of the worst human beings on face of the earth, a thief, conman, and rapist. In Christian right justification God uses evil men to do his work. They site King David as an example. King David had an affair with his friend's wife. King David could not hold a light to Trump. What's next appointing someone like Tedy Bundy to be the pastor of their church they might notice that a few women were missing but God appoints evil men to do his bidding.

Since the beginning of time people have bought gifts of silver and gold to kings to curry favor with the king. It is obvious that large gifts could corrupt the government, so laws were made to limit the value of gifts from foreign countries and others. The problem is once you close a loophole another one opens up. Trump has enriched himself by $1.4 billion this year. The tricks is don't put the bribe in this pocket put it in the other pocket. The president may not be able to take the bribe, but his company can. Several foreign countries have made huge investments in Trump owned companies. That way congress did not have to approve the bribes. Trump is the most corrupt president in the history of the United States and even the Wall Street Journal is pointing it out.

Trump's biggest firework show in the world will cause dangerous air pollution. The fragments that cause fireworks to sparkle will be inhaled into the body. A small fireworks display might not be a big problem, but the massive fireworks show that Trump is putting on with our taxpayer dollars, and he is hiding the cost, will cause smoke so thick that visibility will be less than 6 feet. Trump is firing 850,000 shells in his fireworks display and this may be your social security and Medicare going up in smoke. At the same time Trump is wasting billions the republican think tanks are insisting that social security Medicare have to be cut.

It shows Trumps priorities he would gladly cheat working people out of affordable health insure and waste the money on a billion-dollar fireworks that will be over in a matter of minutes. Talk about burning taxpayer money on steroids. Ever since Trump cheated working people out of health insurance, he has spent taxpayer money like a drunken sailor. He wanted $600 million for security enhancements to his 400 million for a ballroom, $16 million in no bid contracts to trash the reflecting pool. He plans to build a massive arch that will be the highest in the world and cost at tree times what the others cost. At time the republican think tanks are insisting social security and Medicare must be cut. There are things that taxpayer money should be spent on and things it shouldn't and Trump can't tell the difference and doesn't care.

The rich are known for conspicuous spending it is done for the benefit of others. When a rich person loses a million in a night of gambling it is to show he can afford to lose that amount. Trump's fireworks display was a display of conspicuous spending to other countries with taxpayer money. Billionaires spend money like it was worthless to impress others. A country that is $36 trillion in debt can't afford conspicuous spending.

Trump uses fear to manipulate his followers that is how he got elected. It was fear of the Mexicans who according to Trump were thieves, rapists, murders and drug dealers and some he assumed might be decent people. Studies showed illegal aliens were less likely be criminals than Americans. But it accomplished what he wanted many people stampeded to the polls in fear and voted for man who bankrupted 9 companies and nearly destroyed three of America's biggest banks.

Now Trump is fear mongering again at Mount Rushmore about the Communists taking over America. Democratic Socialists are beginning to get elected even the mayor of New York. You can call a rose an elephant but that will never make the rose an elephant. Trump can call a Democratic Socialist a communist, but it won't make them a communist. A communist is someone who believes that government should control the means of production.

After the republicans had destroyed the American economy during the Great Depression, they could not regain power for twenty years. To regain power, they used the fear of communism When Alger Hiss was convicted of spying for the Soviet Union by using the testimony Whitaker Chambers the republicans found communists under every rock which gained them all kinds of publicity and regained political power.

Talking about fear the Democratic Socialists scare the hell out of Trump and the ultra-wealthy because the rich have ripped off the country since Reagan and Democratic Socialists will see to it that the rich pay their share of taxes again whether it is in New York or California. A certain trillionaire pays not one penny in taxes now if the Democratic Socialists gain power Musk can count on paying a few billion in taxes.
