Vapid Pols

I'm critical of the current Democrat Party for what in my view is not having anything to offer other than spitting out whatever the latest focus group suggests will get a vote. And, with no end in sight to driving with a tank full of "Not Trump"

They have made out the opponents be so evil as to represent an existential threat to the country. What could go wrong with that?

Joe's idea of unity is when everybody agrees with him.

In 2024, whoever is the Dem candidate, the strategy will be, "Still Better Than Trump". And, that's irrespective of whether DT will in fact run again. 

Isn't it foreseeable that some Joe Blow's could get it into their heads to do some real damage given that the stakes have been raised to a do or die level?

Don't way I didn't warn on this.

Dear reader: If you have any additional ideas, or if you have some other point of view ... please, comments are welcome.   Some things for the two candidates to chew on leading up to the upcoming debate. [BTW there are other candidates, but they don't get to debate.] For President Trump: Okay, Mr. President, we know you have your way. Ways. The nation is in a love/hate relation with you on that. All that. Let's see you turn a page. Stay focused. Don't swat like a pussy at every feather flutter on a string at the end of a stick. Or, have to fill every rabbit hole with words. An old dog like me knows how to tell if you're lying: those lips are moving. Think about that. Maybe dial back the superlatives too. It's a joke now. HUGE ... joke. And, we give you this ... nobody does it better. Verbum Sap Sat! While we're mentioning particulars, maybe dial down the scattin' and jivin' off-script riffs. Some love it, but there are those who heretofor don't. Go f...

Looking for a Firm Grasp of the Obvious

Reader Advisory: If at any time reading this you're inclined to call this an apologia pro vita sua of Republicans in general or Trump supporters in particular, you friend have made my point. This is a rant about how politicians frame. Of course, everyone has a point of view. You can only look into your own heart and conscience to see whether that perspective is accurate and uncolored by prejudice, bias, or hard-held beliefs. Politicians live to get your vote. This necessitates positing a world with those who are in the right, those who are in the wrong. Winners, and losers. We live in times where the art of such divisiveness has reached a level where sides are so sharply divided that it is not at all surprising that some will literally take up arms to make their point. Who's to blame. Politicians. Us too, for swallowing their rhetoric whole and undigested. Pols are particularly adept at slanting facts, twisting them, coloring them, omitting facts that get in the way of their m...

Leadership 2024

Leadership 2024 It’s currently now the year 2024, and in the US of A we’re gonna vote for President this November.  Some choice. Each side making the strenuous case for a mountain of evidence that the other is ... THE WORST!  Hate. Hate. Hate. Black and white. You like him — the red one ... we will cancel you! You like him — the blue one... we'll cancel you!! Third party candidate gets your vote? ... we'll both cancel you!!! Is that what we want from our leaders? For ourselves.  Unless you are already so unconsciously soaked in whichever's narrative side of the aisle propaganda what's been drilled into your head, you most probably lack the self awareness to see above the fray. Or even comprehend there might be another way to look at it. Or — amazing — that there's a level of perspective that sees the game for what it is. A game. Just to win you and me to a side and then steer the ship of state in the right direction. And, maybe, cash in a bit to boot. The saintly Ob...
