I want to run a modest observation by you. Since “the book” hit the fan late last week, the 24/7 unhinged screaming monkeys reached their feverous pitch crecendo that Trump was crazier than two rats in a sock. Looney tunes, lost his marbles, gone mad, I tell ya, stark raving mad!
Every single member of the Establishment Resistance (MSM, The Industrial Entertainment Complex, academia, the Elitists, the DNC, every Dem in elected office from US Senators to school board members to lowly Mad Maxiepad, the Alt Left, The Neolibs, The Progressives, the Democratic Socialists, Antifa, The Green Libertarians, Soros, the British tabloids…all In one voice screaming for Trump to be forcibly removed from office and carried out in a straight jacket. It was a highly coordinated full blown frontal assault by a cast of thousands.
I was wondering how Trump would get out of this one. The drums of war were pounding fasterand louder and faster and louder. Louder, louder and getting so loud you could not hear yourself think. What’s a Trump to do??? Oh, what to do. Oh bother
Why, call together all the networks. Gather the Republican leadership, the Gang of 8 and the Demcrat leadership from the House and Senate to sit down to have a calm respectful chat and listening session. Only rules were no closed doors and keep the cameras rolling…. all the major network cameras. Let the viewers see what is going on in the room.
Hmm. Instead of a madman, they saw an engaged President leading the breaking of bread,even calling out to those who sat quietly, “I want to hear from you. What do you think?” Trump in charge with all the cameras still rolling…on air in live time. It was Trump in Charge and not repeating himself every 3 minutes.
Noticed this morning all those hyperventilating stories about that delusional neurotic psychotic Trump as a drooling senile old fool talking to the walls in the nuthouse just happen to subside like waters being carried out to sea during low tide. The sea became like glass.
Trump is crazy all right. Crazy like a fox. Open doors, live TV. Genius. Better than watching a Broadway show. Definitely should get a Tony Award for that one. He always finds a way to get his message out above the cacophonous screechings of the bedwetting enemies of putting America first. No wonder his star is on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame. He makes it look so easy. Too easy. He has a knack for winning. Did ‘t Even have to pull out his Twitter Machine. He used his enemies cameras and microphones instead. Sweet.

Looks like what we have suspected may be true. The Obama Administration requested the FISA warrant to spy, wiretap, tap, and conduct surveillance on the Trump campaign based on the unverified Golden Shower dossier.
A major question remains is did the Obama Administration withold from the court the facts that the anti-Trump dossier was not and has not been verified, not to mention being paid for by one political party seeking to discredit their political opponent during a Presidential campaign.

I never report cougar sighting, but haven’t see one around since moving out of the mountains. Pretty cat. 20 mile range. Once saw the same one 6 months apart. Same spot, a small clearing overlooking the forests eastward as far as the eye could see, laying on a log with the perfect visa.’. My, that cat got big fast. Looked at me both times, surprised, got up and gone. Disappeared over the log down the cliff.. Not a trace to be found….vanished into thin air.
Was much pleased fo have a bobcat denning up in the rocks not more than 50 yards from the back porch. Perfect place, well hidden by thick brush hiding the cleft in a rock elevation drop. Dogs cornered the bobcat and I got up real close to stick my face close to hers and see what all the ruckus was about. Called the dogs off and for some reason, they were more than happy to comply. 🙂
Then some new guy figured it would a splendid idea to have free range chickens unfenced during the day in coyote country and caught my feline friend on tape at night getting herself a nice chicken dinner….or 6 over time. Laid the trap and shot her dead. She was pregnant, The drawbacks of being Zone AG.
Nah, I don’t report sighting of endangered foggy things either. If I came across one of those big ordinances Beale used to drop on the hills all around here for training practice, I would report that. Besides, heard they are too heavy to carry out. Let the young bucks do that kind of grunt work. 🙂
