What Happened Behind the Scenes with Jimmy Kimmel and Stormy Daniels: The great success of Trump’s State of the Union Address

It was 8:37 in the PM when President Trump made his way from the White House to the car that was waiting for him with exhaust mist dancing about his looming figure as he headed confidently to his first State of the Union Address on Capital Hill. Meanwhile on the other side of the nation Jimmy Kimmel buried his head in his hands distraught over his lead guest’s last-minute story change which had destroyed his show completely. He had booked the infamous porn star Stormy Daniels to give her account of an affair she had with the president live on his show right after the State of the Union. His strategy of course was to deflate any good the president did with his speech and set the news cycle over the next two days putting the president on defense of this illustrious sexual affair that supposedly happened at a Lake Tahoe golf tournament. But hours before she went on the air a statement came out announcing that the affair never happened and that she wasn’t just saying so because of any financial transaction that might have occurred, but because the affair never actually happened. What was Jimmy Kimmel going to do?

This was going to be bad Jimmy thought. Jimmy had come a long way in his career, from when he worked as a flunky cable host on a male chauvinist Comedy Central show called The Man Show—where routinely he drank beer and belittled women with sexually provocative jokes and indecent behavior. Hollywood was willing to forgive him for these past actions now that he was working for Disney’s ABC on a late-night talk show that spread liberal propaganda—and they liked him because he was so anti-Trump. After all, the political left was filled with degenerate losers, so they welcomed Jimmy into their ranks so long as he played his role, and part of that was to help bring down the sitting president.

Stormy Daniels was going to be that big shot that he had dreamed of all 50 years of his life—the time when he would be somebody important—not just a class clown jokester and television moron that people laughed at, not with. After years of scratching at the surface of Hollywood acceptance doing bit roles in movies with real stars—who have all moved very far to the political left just so they could get jobs, Jimmy was the Fox funny man on Fox NFL Sunday where real jock former football stars made fun of him and used Kimmel as the brunt of their locker room jokes. It was only when Kimmel came out against Trump by using his innocent child suffering from a rare congenital heart defect to rally against the Obamacare reform that the President was advocating when he finally was accepted as a big man around Hollywood—and it felt good.

What was he going to do now? He was going on the air in just a few hours. He wasn’t smart enough to watch the President’s actual speech because he didn’t understand all the big words used within it. He also wasn’t politically savvy enough to understand how hypocritical all the Democrats were when during the speech they failed to stand and clap when Trump announced that black unemployment was the lowest it’s ever been? Did that mean that black civil rights leaders hoped for bad black unemployment because it gave them something to complain about—and thus fuel for their power? Jimmy didn’t know. He simply sipped on his power drink and tried to figure out what to do about this Stormy Daniels problem.

“We don’t have anything” he said in his dressing room. “She is just doing this for the publicity—she’s a used up old porn star that is a has been. She’s married now and she has a kid and she’s looking to make one more name for herself before she fades away, and now I’m stuck with her.” It was his producer who came to the rescue with the handwriting of her current statement compared to her previous one, and the pictures of her autographed over the years. “They don’t look the same,” the producer said. Maybe she was on cocaine or something with those first ones.” “Well, they look different enough to save face on tonight’s show. Otherwise we’ll all be a laughing-stock for hyping this thing up so much. See if you can get her to play along when you get her on live.”

It was worth a shot Jimmy figured. So before the show he ran through a little rehearsal with Stormy as she was preparing for her big moment on live television on the Disney network. “So you didn’t sleep with Donald Trump……….ever?” The porn star shriveled up her face to look like a used napkin at a spaghetti restaurant, “Sorry Jimmy.” Jimmy held up the new statement and compared the hand writing with the old one. “Did you write both of these?” Stormy looked at the two documents and paused. If she said yes her chance at stretching out this last-minute fame game would end tonight. If she lied and said no, she might get a few more weeks out of it. But if she said yes, this whole interview would last about five seconds—so she found herself just looking at the broken—yet desperate face of Jimmy Kimmel. “Wait, don’t answer that” Jimmy injected hopefully. Just follow my lead on stage and we’ll make the most of this.

Thus, Jimmy took the only angle he could and tried to inject some Alex Jones conspiracy theory nonsense into Stormy’s story to at least get the most venomous liberals some red meat. The show happened awkwardly and ended uneventfully. After the show Stormy left quickly trying to avoid any more questions. The early report from Trump’s speech was that it was magnificent, the President had pulled it off flawlessly. The greatest nightmare of the Democratic Party had manifested before their very eyes. Trump’s first State of the Union address was a success—and neither the shiny lipped Joe Kennedy III or Jimmy Kimmel could put out the roaring flame of success that was the Trump White House. As Jimmy sat down in his dressing room coming out of stage prep to go home and forget about this terrible day the news was coming from everywhere that Stormy was a bust—literally. And people thought that Joe Kennedy III was drooling like some sick dog about to be euthanized. What a disaster. The Democrats after the speech somberly left the chamber and gave very little by way of statements to the media. They had already lost any hopes of gaining any seats in the 2018 election now, heck, they’d likely lose more. And it sunk their hearts to a point of hopelessness and despair.

Did these events happen just as I said they did—after all I wasn’t there—I’d have no way of knowing what Jimmy Kimmel thought and did before his big show with Stormy. Nor would I have anyway of knowing what was on the mind of Stormy. But it was good enough for Michael Wolff so its good enough for me. Only I bet I was a lot more accurate in my assessment of Kimmel than Wolff was of the Trump White House. Two can play at that game guys, and if that’s how they want to go about things—I’m up for it.

The Wonderful Melania Trump: Without her, a Donald Trump presidency wouldn’t be possible–that’s why the media is attacking her more

If there is a person I really feel sorry for its Melania Trump.  She did such a marvelous job during the Holiday season to bring great class to the White House, but the moment that we hit January 2018 the fangs and venom of a very hate filled culture came after the Trump family with everything it had—and she has taken the brunt of it as the person most sensitive to pressure.  The target of course is Donald Trump—her husband.  He can handle anything; he’s a 71-year-old billionaire who made his way through life as an alpha male playboy real estate investor.  She knew what she was marrying and I really think Melania has had an effect on Trump as a person over time.  He likely married her for her looks initially, but it is the class of her personality that appears to have had a gradual change on him—and having another son at a point in his life when he was most ready for it.  So the constant CNN stories about Stormy Daniels, the porn star that was allegedly paid $130,000 to keep her mouth shut about an affair with Trump in 2006 would be a hard thing to deal with.  The small-minded Michael Wolff book Fire and Fury likely did as well.  Then there were the SAG awards where it was obvious that Melania was hated by the Hollywood left where they spent much of their show roasting her just because she is physically beautiful.  If I were Melania I’d be questioning right now if any of all this White House business was actually worth it.

I knew a girl a long time ago who was a premier model for Penthouse magazine.  She was 26, a few years older than I was at the time and she was married to a developer in Cincinnati who was magnificently connected to all the movers and shakers.  He was in his late 50s so obviously she wasn’t physically attracted to the guy, but she did love his money.  I knew him as well, he was a good guy who obviously wanted a trophy wife to show off to all his friends in the business world because as every man knows, other men judge alpha males by the quality of their wives and their ability to get the attention of other women as potential mates.  If you want to be the top dog among other males you need to have the best looking wife and also have the ability to steal away your friend’s wife—just to show him that you are better than he is.  Of course this kind of thinking is what drives the women’s rights groups with their own radical progressivism—but we’re talking about millions of years of innate instinct here which resides in the human species.  Women are attracted to men who can provide the most options for a growing family.  They aren’t all that concerned with looks, but with what a man can do for them.  A man wants to show that he can have the pick of a litter in potential mates.  If a man is really a top male, he can take any woman he wants and this is essentially Michael Wolff’s presentation of Trump in that book of his.  To a beta male like Wolff, this is disgusting behavior, but to other alphas, they understand it and don’t hold it against Trump.

This woman I was speaking about was in desperate yearning for male attention from people in her own age group.  She enjoyed meeting the mayor and local celebrities with her husband, but she couldn’t do anything with her needs for physical contact due to her husband’s age.  She was simply an ornament hanging on his arm to make him look good.  She knew that when she married him, but that didn’t stop the human need for personal contact.  He and she were pretty good friends, they talked and shared a lot together.  But sex for him was a task—for her it was a need—and that came from being at two different biological stages in their lives.  That left her living a life of quiet desperation that I’m sure is a bit of what Melania is going through right now.  Trump is great at many things—but at nearly 72 years old there’s not much he can do for a woman like Melania Trump.  When she was living in New York at the top of a golden tower apartment hidden from the world when she wanted to be, the arrangement was likely worth the downside.  But in the White House where everything is under microanalys every five seconds the pressure is probably pretty immense.

Melania is essentially the same age as my wife is now so I can understand the needs she probably has.  Melania isn’t the type of FLOTUS that Michelle Obama was where she says in your face types of things to the other political side routinely.  Melania as a top fashion model was used to being liked, her jewelry line was sought after by the biggest celebrities, and now to see those people hating her at the SAG awards must be painful. But it is all worth it.  In the end of all this I think she will go down as the greatest FLOTUS that the United States ever had. Currently she has brought a class to that White House that even President Trump has to live up to and that is a remarkable achievement.  I’m sure that she played a major role and making Trump into the kind of man who could run for president—instead of running around golf courses with porn stars.  For alpha males there is a very subtle switch that takes their otherwise destructive personal behavior and turns them into an extreme positive force and I credit Melania Trump for providing that to her husband.

As I read the Wolff book I was pretty stunned by the small mindedness of everyone in it, from the perspective of the little man author of course.  As a little beta man he has a natural resentment toward alpha types and that shows in his writing.  But there is of course some truth to what he put on paper, especially in relation to Roger Ailes and Steve Bannon.  At the start of the book the two men were sitting around at a restaurant contemplating what kind of president Trump would be as the newly elected victor of the 2016 election.  Ailes just fired from Fox News apparently was a little mystified that he had turned down Trump to run his campaign and that this fat slob in Bannon from the small market $1.5 million dollar a year operation in Brietbart was now one of the most powerful men in the world.  But the two men were students of history and they really couldn’t believe that Trump—the man they had known for years—was president.  “The Donald” was after all a player, a reckless business investor who used his massive charisma to make people do things they might otherwise not do.  How could he be president when they knew more about history and politics than he did?  Well, Trump obviously had all the ingredients to be president and he is doing a remarkable good job.  But what he has that everyone else doesn’t is Melania Trump, that takes all those great skills he has and focuses them on bigger things than sleeping with porn stars and other top models in entertainment to prove his alpha maleness.  That is why I think she deserves a lot of credit for this wonderful revolution that is going on.

If the people at CNN and the publishers and authors out there who are like Michael Wolff, just hanging around in the background trying to pick apart every little thing that Trump does as president, if they really knew anything they’d see what a great woman Melania is and what role she has played in improving our White House by being that silent partner which gives far more than anybody realizes.  That gift doesn’t come from just her looks; it comes from being a good person that inspires in the people around her greatness.  I’d say that is really the source of people’s resentment of her—because they unconsciously understand that the way to bring down Trump is to bring down his wife.  That is his only real weakness.  That’s the soft side of Donald Trump that he doesn’t show.  I don’t think we’d have a President Trump without her and I hope she can fight through these tough months—because the work that is done over these next few years will change America for the better.  And her role in it may not be truly ever realized, but without her none of it would have a chance.

The Primary Reason Peter Strozk and Lisa Page Should Be Fired: Who has time to send 50,000 texts–unless you are a non essential employee

I know I’ve been talking about it for years, we know that our government agencies such as the FBI, IRS, and NSA have been weaponized against us—the proof has been quite clear. From what we know it could be argued that our FBI isn’t much different from the Cold War era KGB—their behaviors are very similar. Now that the FBI has been caught in their escapades to help Hillary Clinton become president—allowing destroyed evidence, assisting in collusion with the fake dossier against Donald Trump where they could, and working the surveillance strings to attempt a coup largely led by James Comey, Peter Strozk and Lisa Page, evidence of that activity is being destroyed in the same manner that we’ve seen routinely under the Obama years from these government agencies. Without question there were crimes and people need to go to jail and the guns are smoking—and we can all see them. But to me the biggest crime is in the amount of text messages Strozk and his lover Lisa Page sent to each other. Out of the over ten thousand text messages between the two, the FBI has conveniently lost the critical five months’ worth that falls within the times frames in question—which isn’t surprising given the criminal behavior displayed by that investigative bureau. How did these two federal employees have time to send that many text messages? I’ve been texting my wife and kids for over ten years—maybe fifteen and I can’t imagine that I’ve come close to 50K messages. How did they have time to send over 60 text messages per day to each other and still have time to do their jobs? That is problem number one.

Imagine having the time to send roughly 10 messages per hour when these FBI agents are supposed to be working, because they wouldn’t be doing it at home since in the case of Strozk, he had a wife to deal with. If you take an hour for lunch and for ideal chit-chat with other co-workers, what were these idiots doing all day besides sending text messages to each other and covering up crimes for Hillary Clinton—because there wasn’t much time for anything else? We know Strozk was involved in the Clinton interviews, and those with General Flynn. We also know he wrote the position statements for Director Comey—so how did he have time to do real FBI work? By the nature of these text message revelations no matter if they are lost or not, Strozk and Page showed that the demands of their jobs were not very intrusive to contributing to their illicit affair and salary requirements.

Then imagine if we add to all this lost productive time their anti-Trump activism. For instance, how many of these texts between each other were “anti-Trump” in nature, and how much time did they plan between one another to manipulate the strings of justice to ensure that he not win a seat in the office of the presidency? That is kind of an important question. We know there was a portion of those text messages that were certainly conspiratorial in nature, as the two lovers at least talked about keeping Trump from getting elected, so we must accept that there were many more as it appeared to be a subject of great concern between the two. We already know that Strozk had no issues with concealing the truth because his wife was kept in the dark about this affair with Lisa Page so we can also conclude that this is a behavior pattern that would carry over into other parts of his professional life. Then knowing all that, what does it take to get fired at the FBI? Why do these people still have jobs when they were obviously not doing anything except talking about having sex with each other and controlling the fate of a rightly elected American president?

And how stupid is James Comey? This Director of the FBI obviously was close enough to let Strozk rewrite his draft language from extremely careless” to “grossly negligent,” he had to know what was going on between these two FBI agents and understand their anti-Trump hatred. He was in charge of the entire FBI and he had to know Strozk and Page were having an affair, and what their political nature was—and he had to know the dangers as well of listening to anything they had to say—yet he did listen and he allowed them to control the nature of his press conferences which got him into a whole lot of trouble. It was nearly impossible for Comey to not prosecute Clinton for the crimes she committed, especially lying to the FBI while at the same time giving her a clean slate to work with so she could secure the Democratic nomination. We know that at the very least these two FBI lovers, Strozk and Page were responsible for shaping the Comey case against and for Hillary Clinton—which explains the confusion over those summer months of 2016. Reading the text messages between the two lovers is confusing and Comey was obviously caught up in the drama.

Then to attempt to cover all this up Comey leaked government documents to the media to inspire his friend Robert Mueller to head up a special prosecution against President Trump—which is what happened. In this case the entire FBI became involved in a conspiracy to remove a sitting president. Does anyone think it was an accident that one of the first things Comey said to Trump was to inform him about the embarrassing Russian dossier—which again the FBI played a part in making a reality? This was obvious leverage over the president-elect at the time to manipulate him into compliance. But since none of it was true, Trump had nothing to fear and the whole thing backfired. Comey lost his job five months later once it was obvious that he was playing a part at trying to undermine the White House with the same type of radicalism evident in the actions of Lisa Page and Peter Strozk.

From what I can see there is no reason that either Page or Strozk should not be fired. They obviously aren’t needed to do any protective work the FBI might need out of them. Instead, they used their office to have sex with each other and behave as political radicals protecting the Democrats from obvious crimes against the very nature of justice itself. Any two people who have time to send 50,000 text messages to each other over a short period of time are not productive people. They are lazy people not concerned with the business they were being paid for—which is the most obvious giveaway that they were Hillary Clinton supporters. Anybody who could support such a criminal minded person for president obviously has other problems they wish to conceal behind the chaos of a Democrat in the White House.

The question I have now is I wonder if Page and Strozk are still dating? With their names on the news every day I wonder how Strozk’s establishment wife is taking everything? Since they work for the government there are never any real consequences for their actions—which is why there was such an uproar over James Comey being fired. When Trump did fire Comey it was like the scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey where the apes first saw the monolith—and realized that there were things out there in the world that were not a part of their daily routine. When Comey was fired they all assumed there must be come malicious conspiracy—because in their world there always is. But to Trump he fired Comey because the Director was a terrible employee and he hired terrible people to work close to him at the FBI. And the evidence of that is in the behavior of Peter Strozk and Lisa Page.

Ooops, at the 1 minute mark.

Trump’s First Year as President: The difference between being a narcissist and a good leader–walking the razor’s edge between villainy and greatness

 

January 20, 2018 came and went for most people but I did go through some little celebration for the first full year of the Donald Trump presidency.  I am very proud of him and remain very happy that he took this job on because it was the only way that anything was ever going to change.  The villains of our time had embedded themselves too far into our culture to ever remove them without the strategies that Trump is employing.  Watching Saturday Night Live’s first open since the medical exam for which President Trump was more open and healthy at 71 years old than any president in history, it was very mean-spirited to pick on Trump’s weight, which in my opinion isn’t that bad. But, it’s all they have on the other side.  What makes Trump great is that he understands it.  In one of his bestselling books, Trump 101: The Way to Success the president explains to the reader “believe in yourself, exude confidence, and get in your competitor’s way.  Project yourself into their picture and upset their status quo.”  Trump understands what’s going on, and he doesn’t take it personal, because he is utilizing these leadership methods on a global scale, and it is upsetting the status quo, and that was the only way to do it peacefully, and he’s doing it, and I’m proud.

It’s a very fine line between being a loser narcissist where everything done is to make the subject about “them” and a confident leader who can make everything about them for the benefit of everyone who follows them.  It is such a razors edge that one must keep moving across it like a person walks across hot coals, because if you stop and stand, the sheer weight of your presence will drive the blades into your feet and split you in two with just the force of gravity.  I think it’s the hardest thing in the world to master, and for those who do; they become the best in their fields of whatever they are doing.  There are a lot of narcissists out there who never get it, and very few true leaders who break through to become a Tom Brady type of quarterback.  The proper way to identify the difference is with the Robert  Pirsig Metaphysics of Quality.

A narcissist in psychiatry is a personality disorder characterized by the patient’s overestimation of his or her own appearance and abilities and an excessive need for admiration. In psychoanalytic theory, emphasis is placed on the element of self-directed sexual desire in the condition.  The situation is made worse these days by the type of education we have given our young people where they’ve been taught that their parents were idiots, they should become political Democrats to show empathy for others to cover for the narcissist behavior nurtured by their public school years where everything was made about them.  At home their parents were divorcing and felt guilt over it so they spoiled the children.  At school everything was a crime producing a victim, and there was never ever any blame for bad behavior.  Everything was made into an excuse to prescribe the next drug that a pharmacy was welling to “ease” the depression.  That is how we ended up with the type of people we have in media today which only a President like Trump could have challenged and defeated.  These narcissists are the type of people who work now as writers at Saturday Night Live, and they are the assistant editors at every magazine, television broadcast, and newspaper.

Narcissists in relationships are easy to spot, they are the people who are the perpetual victims to the other party—they feel everything that happens can only be interpreted through the spectrum of their own vantage point.  For instance, when they are planning to cheat, or look for a way out of the relationship they might blame the other party for wanting to cheat, and they’ll go through elaborate measures to attempt to project their anxieties onto other people so that the reality of their fantasy might manifest into behavior which can justify their true wishes, which is to be out of the relationship.  So they’ll go through the Facebook account of their bed mate and look for the very signs of illicit behavior which they are personally guilty of so they can then built a case in ending the relationship by imposing their own emotions into the situation for which only they can interpret.  To the narcissist the nature of reality doesn’t matter, only how they interpret that reality.  So to gain control of such a relationship where they are actually the guilty party in wanting to cheat they build up the case against the other person imposing the conditions for which the narcissist is actually guilty.  This sexual example is something everyone can understand—but it can be applied to anything.  The way the media interprets the Trump presidency is a classic case of this—where everything he does is interpreted through the eyes of narcissists.  Hillary Clinton may have been guilty of all the crimes they are accusing Donald Trump for, but the narcissist tries to insert that value onto the Republican president, and when Trump refuses, they are angry about it.  It is the liberals who are the racists in America—they are the ones with the history of the behavior—not the Republicans, yet it is the GOP who have been categorized with the behavior.

I have always thought very highly of my grandparents, and they were great people.  But I had a grandfather who went through a very narcissistic period in his life.  He drank too much and ran around with crazy women and to keep my grandmother from pressing down on him and forcing him to change he imposed all his guilt on her.  He accused her of wanting to be with other men so much so that she never learned to drive a car.  He was afraid that if she had a car she’d run around town cheating on him with other men.  But in reality, the only one cheating was him and by imposing that type of chaos to the relationship it gave him a good cover story to allow his narcissistic tendencies to continue—and it kept her from looking too deeply into what he was doing.  A lot of men did this in the previous century and it is what fueled the women’s rights movement because women wanted to exact an eye for an eye—which has further exacerbated the problem in our society.  Now we have men and women doing all these bad things when traditionally it was men who were the screw ups.  A lot of that happened before I was born so I had a good relationship after all that was over.  But the effects lasted their entire lifetime, they slept in separate beds and my grandmother never really got over it.  They stayed together because that’s what the older generation did for the sake of the family—but they had lost their intimacy with one another.  That’s what narcissists do, they destroy the trust in the people around them because they make everything about them no matter what reality states and it always causes hard feelings in the people they are in relationships with.

Trump is the most literate president we’ve ever had—while the narcissists think he doesn’t read enough or isn’t intellectually engaged, it is really themselves they are talking about.  Trump is the bestselling author of a number of books which he has written.  Not even Teddy Roosevelt could say that.  Roosevelt’s Winning the West series did well, but it didn’t sell to the level of Trump’s business books.  People can argue that the quality of the writing favored Roosevelt, but Trump’s ability to cut through the nonsense has a value all its own.  I personally think the quote I shared in this article is one of the best bits of advice I’ve ever read on strategy and the power of positive thinking.  Like I said, it’s a fine line between being a narcissist and being a confident leader.  People who fall short of that glorious Metaphysics of Quality become destructive narcissists.  Not every great quarterback out there becomes Tom Brady.  They’d love to, but they never develop those extra attributes of leadership which keep the feet from slicing in half on that razor’s edge.  And with so many villains who are clinical examples of dangerous narcissists running the world right now mainly because our institutions do not yet understand the Metaphysics of Quality—only someone like Donald Trump could have a shot at defeating them.  One year into his presidency, I can see that he has everything well under control.  And for me, it was worth celebrating.

Go Ahead, Shut Down the Government: Why we need Trump’s wall

Everyone did what they were supposed to, the House passed their resolution to keep the government running, President Trump supported that effort, but the bottom line was that the Democrats needed to gamble everything to attempt to hurt Republicans for the midterms, so they needed a shutdown. They needed to create some blame that might hurt the Republicans, so they can win majorities in the House and Senate this fall, and this shut down is their last chance to do it. As we sit and wait for what the Senate does, which will likely lead to a shut down at this point, I am excited. Whether it’s this time or the next, Trump is the right guy to have in the White House for this tough negotiation. Finally, we have a guy who will call the bluff of the Democrats and put the blame back on them for a change, which is a first. For just this kind of budget battle was another reason I have been supportive of Donald Trump for president from the beginning—because I grew tired of losing these battles with the standard kind of Republicans we had at the federal level.

I’ll go a step further, there is no way that Democrats will win a budget battle with Donald Trump. They don’t have it in them. The key to the bluff which Trump understands, is that most of the government is nonessential. If they can be shut down, and the business of the country can go on, then they aren’t needed positions, which is exactly what Trump will point out daily. The Democrats cannot afford to let the masses learn of this—so they’ll have to blink first, and by then it will be too late. They will lose seats this fall as a result and Trump will further solidify his coalition. In this kind of battle those who communicate best will win, and nobody is better at articulating an issue than Donald Trump on Capital Hill. A shut down works best for the GOP, so let them do it. It is an excellent opportunity to tackle the most basic aspects of our bloated government.

There is no other way to reduce the size of our government than to prove to everyone how little it really does for us, and a shut down will illustrate it perfectly. Once we get beyond the emotional aspects of the military and closing of the state parks, which is an extortion racket designed to flow countless billions into Belt Way fantasies, the real meat and potatoes of our budgets are in the non-essential employees who make huge salaries for essentially playing on Facebook all day. If there is a shut down, life will go on, the sun will still come up, people will still shop, live and love. People will see what little the government really does for them and the bluff will be called—and it will be Democrats who will pay for insisting that the world would have ended if a shut down happened. Just like the people who predicted the world would end when Trump became president, people will see who told the truth, and who didn’t.

Of course, the right thing to do is to try to reach a compromise, and the Republicans did, but everyone understands that this is a last stand for the Democrats. They have only in mind to try to stop this president and capture seats in the House and Senate and traditionally, this is how they understand to do that. Additionally, it doesn’t really matter that the Republicans control the House and Senate because they really don’t. Unlike Democrats, Republicans are not united collectivists, there are various degrees of conservatives and many traditional GOP types are actually closer to Democrats than they are Republicans like Trump, or Ted Cruz. In my way of thinking Trump is a bleeding-heart liberal, but he does have a conservative platform which I support. However, Trump I can live with, but people like Lindsey Graham don’t even register on my conservative scale. He like John Kasich—the governor of my state—are essentially liberals.

There is no other way to unite everyone under a common flag of America than to destroy these little separatist groups that want DACA or higher taxes before they’ll build a border wall to secure our nation from the Marxist nation to the south. Mexico became impoverished through their revolution at the turn of the last century where they took on a platform of social justice politically which destroyed their nation, like every other nation south of America’s border. When you have a country with little economic value next to a country of enormous wealth functioning under capitalism, of course you need a wall to protect one from the needs of the other. A wall isn’t needed in the north along the Canadian border because essentially that nation has adopted many American ideas, and they are not a direct threat to overtake our capitalist system. Although they are socialist by nature, their population isn’t nearly as out of control as they are in Mexico where desperation is everywhere except for the tourist spots, which are very small in comparison with the rest of the country. If Mexico wants to improve their situation, they need to become capitalists, or even perhaps become new states in the American way of life. But to be a sovereign nation of conquered people hell-bent on Marxism—that’s just not a possibility. We need a wall between America and Mexico to make sure that protections are there for the people who have value as opposed to those who don’t.

The money for a border wall will never come from the current House and Senate, so those members against it literally must be destroyed. The way to destroy them is to embarrass them right out of office with a catastrophic shut down like what we are about to face. Republicans have never done well in these kinds of fights. I remember the optimism I felt when Trent Lott and Newt Gingrich faced down Slick Willy Clinton back in the 90s. I thought Newt was going to be a tough guy, but he was the first to blink and while Clinton was getting his famous blow job in the White House, the Democrats beat on their chest in victory which essentially lasted for the last 20 years. Republicans have come close to trying a stand-off over the years, but they never had the heart for it. Until now. When I cast my vote for Trump in 2016 this was one of the reasons I did it—I was very eager to return to another one of these stand offs. This time I expect the Republicans to win—and for those who call themselves Republicans but are really Democrats, this battle will expose them fully—which needs to happen.

I’m fine with the government shutting down. It doesn’t do much for me, nothing I couldn’t do myself through the private sector. I’d even go so far to say that with the Second Amendment, that the military is a secondary concern. If a bunch of rice popping North Koreans want to attack my home town, I’ll enjoy the opportunity to defend against them. I don’t need a military to protect my home. It’s nice to have, but I consider it a luxury. It’s Democrats who need the government so the way to beat them all is to shrink it, cut their budgets and force them into self-reliance. In that game, the Republicans can win if they follow behind Trump and do what he tells them too. It’s time to break the vicious cycle of Democratic extortion to continue funding inflated budgets for every little thing. It’s time to destroy the Democrats with their own tactics and for a change let them take the blame for all the things they so adequately deserve.

Ethnocentrism: The precise reasons America is the new definition for excellence in the context of history

There is a term, ethnocentrism–which postulates that a culture might consider itself superior to all others because the perspective is strictly from the vantage point of the one-sided observer.  This is generally a problem when looking back through history and assuming that a farming culture was superior to a hunting and gathering society—in that one produced more food while another may have had greater success in regards to religion.  The vantage point of supremacy usually falls on the side of history with those best able to record it—such as an ancient culture that had expanded their society to incorporate agriculture so to feed many thousands of people instead of a tribe of hunters.  Farmers might have developed a common language and ability to write for which the masses could understand–and thus record their experiences.  The modern observer would naturally think that the society that could write their thoughts down would be superior to the tribe that might only have communication skills that a small group of people understood—so the assumption would be that one was superior to the other.  That is the nature of ethnocentrism.

Modern academics try to play with words assuming that given their specialized skills that they might resonate across all platforms of thoughtful endeavor, but that is not the case. In a modern context the mode of emphasis given that so much of society these days have their own forms of communication and that the important thing to consider is the egalitarian aims of the most progressive of our world leaders.  Thus it is considered that the America first suggestions by President Trump are beneath consideration and barbaric in nature.  The world according to the academics of institutionalized thought is concerned with global equality—so these claims of a superior American culture are ethnocentric in nature and are rooted in ignorance.  After all, the Nazi’s (created by Democrats) were an ethnocentric culture—and look how “racist” they were to believe that the Aryan race should dominate the world.  But the world (lead by the United States) stood up to the Nazis and defeated them paving the way for the United Nations to bring to the world an egalitarian order which would stop all wars—and also all forms of judgment as well.  Nobody would be ethnocentric any longer—everyone would be equal.

This past week when Trump supposedly said that Haitians were not desired to be American immigrants and that talent from Norway might be more desirable a cultural rift took place that went deep into the follies of our modern age, and perspective.  I heard even Glenn Beck on his show bloviate about how racist Trump was and that he had a tendency to view superior breeding among those of his “own kind” to be more desirable over the poor from back water countries from people of different color.  And I was listening to this thinking, “so if we have daughters whom we’ve cared for since they were little girls and we’ve loved very much, we are supposed to be OK with it if they marry a drug lord from Hezbollah because the value judgment is that they are of a different color, and culture and that we should just blindly respect their intentions in spite of what we see of their culture?  Should we endorse such a marriage to a ghetto bum with gold teeth and tattoos all over their neck just because they happen to be black?  I should think not.

The fact of the matter is this, America is a superior nation—it has a culture that has better endured the challenges of diversity than any country on planet earth ever has—in the history of the world.  It is not uncommon in America to go to the grocery store and see people from all over the world from many different religious backgrounds shopping together without wanting to kill each other.  What joins them culturally is the American Constitution—which is a rather good work of philosophy that started with the Magna Carta in England along with the Scottish Enlightenment of Adam Smith’s economic theories.  It’s not like America rolled over one day and became what it is—it took a lot of time, it took debates from Plato and Aristotle, it took the yearning of the pilgrims to throw off the confines of Catholicism and to put protestant winds in the sales of the Mayflower to start a colony free of European inquisition in a far away land.  It took the warring Vikings to settle in America and to breed with immigrants from China to become the first American Indians—and to bring those Norse gods together with those of ancient China to create mythologies of war and peace for which the American cowboy ran up against during the great Westward expansion.  It took the slaves from Africa who were freed for the first time in history to mix their cultures and gods with those of the white European to settle an American south that is unlike any place on earth.  It took a lot to bring America into being, and it was born of a unified desire from everyone around the world to be free and it is safe to say that the concept of America as a superior nation is not ethnocentric—it’s a fact.

America is the first place in the history of the world to take all the mistakes made throughout the ages of mankind and to come up with a unified method for living and growing as a species of mammals that happen to think.  So it is superior to the jungle shaman who ingests opium to have a vision quest, or a communist war lord stealing wealth, raping young girls, and destroying their young boys in El Salvador, or Honduras—so they can sell drugs to America to fund their crusade of destruction.  America is superior to a bunch of penguins hopping around in Antarctica with the primary concern of breeding as their life goal.  It’s ok to look at all these societies and to have empathy for them, but they certainly aren’t equal to life in America.  There is no place better on earth than America, for no place has created the opportunities for freedom than what has occurred on the North American continent over the relatively short period of time of just the last 400 years.  It doesn’t matter who was slaughtered in the process—that the Indians lost their land to a superior culture, or that slaves were taken from their homes in Africa because in the process their freedom was started which would have never happened otherwise.  The practice of ending slavery started in America due to the foundations of thought which formed this unique nation—and the mistakes of the past were learned from, and advanced into a very diverse culture which everyone should be proud of.

When academics and political hacks consisting of lawyers, thieves, and intellectual slugs propose that the world should be more egalitarian and that the cries for nationalism are inferior suggestions by a less sophisticated and racist culture limiting their perspective to the ethnocentrism of their known ideas—they are wrong.  What makes those American enemies angry is that they still hold that old desire for segregation and chaos which ran the world before America came to the stage.  Whether it be the institutions of Europe, the communists of Asia, or the spear chuckers of Africa and South America—America is the dominate culture on planet earth and everyone should learn from it to make their countries better off for that knowledge.  We are certainly not equal.  Our daughters should not have to marry scum bags and losers with no ambition—because we love them, and that value judgment protects them from bad decisions which will ruin their lives.  And we should not teach our children to be like the topless sluts of France who will sleep with anybody anywhere just to pass the time in their dreary, boring days in a socialist country.  Nor should we feel guilty for destroying the American Indian, or for the culture of slavery which we inherited, because we did better with the land, and the people than any previous culture has in the history of the world.  As cruel as slavery was, we should all be proud that the battle for freedom was conducted on North American soil—because a whole race of people were freed in the process.  Indians were not a great and wondrous people; they were at war with each other.  If anything happened during westward expansion it was that it brought peace to regions that had for many thousands of years previously seen only war from one tribe against another.  Sure, they worshipped the earth and all its creatures—because they were too stupid to think of anything new.  But in America we did—and we did it all together for the first time in all of human history—after more than 200,000 years of trying—and it started in 1776 when the minds of mankind decided to try something different—something better, and something that would improve the lives of everyone who accepted it.  This is why America is a superior culture from any vantage point not limited to the mundane old definition of ethnocentrism.

Steven Spielberg: Just another Hollywood political hack

It pains me to say this, I love Steven Spielberg, I love John Williams, I even like Amazon’s Jeff Bezos—so what on earth are these idiots talking about regarding the merit of the “free press.”  In his new movie The Post, Spielberg, Tom Hanks and the eternally liberal feminist Meryl Streep act like they are changing the world with this rush job loser of a movie yet they had to get it out before the close of 2017 to qualify for the awards season.  Aside from the obvious political message the film is very sloppy—like it was made by college students—not the most successful filmmaker in the history of mankind.  The story is amazingly political.  The premise suggested by the movie—that the free press is our only vanguard against corrupt presidencies is completely ridiculous.  The Washington Post—the newspaper currently owned by Jeff Bezos isn’t a free press—it’s a liberal mouthpiece for the political left and a tool for trying to eliminate conservative politicians from races of consideration.  They are as corrupt as any K-Street lobbyists and couldn’t be considered trustworthy by any stretch of the imagination.  It’s amazing to me that Spielberg and Hanks would even suggest that there is some moral authority for which The Post had to speak from—because such a thought is one of the biggest fantasies in Spielberg’s long career at making movies—and that includes his version of Peter Pan in the movie Hook.

Like most things on the political left the foundations of thinking are rooted in disjointed emotions and a viewpoint from the bubble of the liberal neighborhoods they currently live in. The Obama administration as we have learned very late in the game was one of the most corrupt administrations in the history of the world—you’d have to go back to the Roman emperor Nero for a comparison—and The Washington Post has been silent on the matter—yet it has fully advanced the false notion that Russians are the reason Donald Trump won the presidency.  The American people don’t have faith in the left leaning “free press” of The Washington Post, The New York Times, and CNN.  Liberal people do because those outlets say what they want to hear just as Fox News traditionally might feed the political right a viewpoint favorable to their sentiments.  But facts are facts and many news outlets including Disney owned ABC has deliberately sat on stories to prevent the political left from looking bad.

Before Donald Trump’s election to the presidency I would occasionally buy a New York Times newspaper at my local Barnes and Nobel bookstore just to thumb through the pages and see what was going on in the world from the viewpoint of New York City.  I was able to overlook their obvious liberal bias because it wasn’t nearly as “in your face” as today’s anti-Trump media has been.  I even would read The New Yorker from time to time to keep up with the cultural drivers of our time—so I’m hardly a closed-minded Republican.  I’m a Ohio conservative so I am used to dealing with propaganda from the political left, even Fox News is now owned by the Disney Company so if I want to participate in the world, I have to deal with liberals.  But my beliefs aren’t just regional—because I was born in a conservative area, had conservative parents, and conservative grandparents—etc.  I’ve navigated through my adult life as an avid reader of history.  I never get drunk for any kind of entertainment as I love my mind more than anything in the world—and I enjoy feeding it good things—so my thoughts on things are formed by evidence as it plays out in the world—not what “people” and their viewpoints think of it.  For instance, for the third time in my life I am reading the big version of Adam Smith’s An Inquiry in the Nature and Causes of The Wealth of Nations shown in the included picture.  All the books in that stack for instance are my January 2018 projects and I will have them all read before the upcoming Super Bowl.  That stack is a continuous one that resides next to my reading chair.  The contents of the stack are ever-changing, but the stack is always there.  The point of the matter is that I am not drawing my conclusions about the nature of the “free press” based on any kind of pop culture sentiment—it is through the long view of historical perspective—so it deeply surprises me that Steve Spielberg—as an artist would allow himself to get so caught up in the local vantage points of his liberal Hollywood friends—because if they think the current Washington Post is anything more than a blog for the liberal views of Jeff Bezos—they are smoking crack and should be arrested immediately.

When the free press becomes part of the problem as it is now, we have no choice but to fight them.  We have watched them actively hide crimes from our faces much more severe than The Pentagon Papers ever were.  If that is the criteria of merit as shown in The Post—then where is the outrage over the crimes Hillary Clinton herself committed?  What about the FBI using the press as a way to hide their crimes and manipulate public opinion in ways they approved of?  What about that smidgen of evidence which continues to pour out of the Obama White House when it used the powers of government to crush political opponents and unmask competing administrations as they came into power?  The Trump administration was just trying to put together their team when Obama and his activist Justice Department was unmasking members of the transition team as a way to destroy them before they ever got started.  What they learned they leaked to that “free press” to work in cahoots with the aims of the political left to advance a sentiment for which the American public had just voted against–so much for a “righteous” Washington Post.

The essential premise of the movie, The Post is completely ridiculous and I’d expect much more out of these seasoned filmmakers than to propose that the free press especially in this modern era is anything less than another potential villain of misinformation with an agenda.  I’ve been involved in some of those little parties where some ditzy blond starlet yaks on and on about animal rights, women in the work place, and how wonderful Bill Clinton was in the White House with her tits falling out of her dress, drunk hoping to seduce her way into a movie role.  That is the world of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg—they are bombarded by those types of people almost every day.  And actresses like that don’t really care about animal rights.  If by some chance she thought the film producers were conservative, she’d go on and on about the greatness of the NRA and how tax cuts helped her buy a new car as she was trying to make ends meet until her next movie role—(wink—look at my boobies).  But we expect more out of filmmakers who are as seasoned as Spielberg is.  Sadly it appears he’s become caught up in all this anti-Trump Hollywood sentiment and he is looking for another Oscar by appeasing those liberal members of the Academy with some red meat to fulfill their fantasies.  Yet all he’s really shown us is that he can’t be trusted to tell the truth either—as an artist.  He has become just another political hack, like the rest of them.

Playing ‘The Art of War’: The Flynn plea deal sets up a Hillary Clinton prosecution

It was actually hilarious to wake up on Sunday morning after a really crazy week in politics to hear that President Trump had plunged in his job approval rating to 62% disapproval.  Where do they get these numbers, from the sales office of CNN where someone comes into their cubical maze and takes a show of hands?  The reality is likely that those numbers are completely opposite because plenty happened this week to eliminate any suspicion to the contrary.  And with that I have to give Rush Limbaugh a lot of credit.  He also showed this week why he is the best in the business.  As news broke on Thursday of General Flynn flipping to deliver the goods on President Trump to the special investigation prosecution of Bob Mueller the world melted for a few hours thinking that this was it—this was the smoking gun that was going to knock Trump out of the White House.  I often joke about how many times I’ve been to court and those experiences have ruined the formality of those proceedings for me now—so much so I don’t take anything serious.  As the stock market plunged over 300 points with the news liberals were literally stepping all over themselves with excitement revealing their true prejudice—most notably on The View at that mid day moment.  I was in my car going to a lunch meeting when the calm voice of Rush Limbaugh came on at noon and told everyone to calm down—don’t believe what you are hearing.  He went on to say that the news breaking on the Flynn news was ABC after all, and specifically Brian Ross.  Ross had jumped to judgment before filling in facts with his fantasy outcomes and that he couldn’t be trusted in this matter.  ABC within hours of that release had to suspend Ross for four weeks without pay once it was revealed that the information released by ABC News was grossly inaccurate and filled only with wishful thinking—exactly the way Rush Limbaugh had called it in the heat of the moment.  Rush was the only one to do that and after his words came out the Dow -market was already climbing back into its position over 24,000.

http://news.gallup.com/poll/201617/gallup-daily-trump-job-approval.aspx

As part of his job on the transition team General Flynn was assigned to contact Russia, and many other countries to pave the way for the Trump agenda. Specifically in this case he was supposed to get talks going with Russia to get their buy-in for dealing with Syria and the fight with ISIS.  That way by day one after the Inauguration Trump’s White House would be ready to go.  The Obama people knew what Flynn was doing because they were illegally spying on Trump’s people in Trump Tower and looking to derail the incoming president using the Deep State to destroy him before he ever got into office.  So they used the little bits of information they heard during their unmasking operations to leak assumptions to the media to cast doubt on the validity of the election—just like what Brian Ross was guilty of—and the Democratic Party took the baton and ran with it.  They did after all what they always do when they are the ones guilty of something—whether its racism, sexual misconduct, or flat-out corruption, they transfer their guilt to someone else and accuse them of doing the deed.  But Trump doesn’t play that game.

I was actually in a pretty good mood after the Flynn news broke because if he was going to plead guilty to lying to the FBI over his role in missing a few details to investigators while they all got their feet wet in the Trump administration when pressured by the FBI, then Hillary Clinton and the Obama White House were in much more trouble.  To me this news from the previous year that had terminated the employment of big names like Bill O’Reilly and Roger Ailes at Fox News had to of course be applied to everyone else.  So when it was the liberals lost their heroes to the same criteria.  With Flynn pleading guilty to lying to the FBI which is why Trump had to fire him in the first place, when the same criteria was applied to someone like Hillary, she was going to be in much more trouble.  So I couldn’t see why everyone was so excited—other than that they were too stupid to understand all the legal issues at play.

Any information that might lead to some bad polling for Trump was obviously taken from people who were watching The View that morning and bought the media narrative that Trump was going to be driven out of office by his former friend Michael Flynn who was turning on Trump with a plea deal to save his family from ruin by Mueller’s team.  There is just so much wrong with all that—the nature of the Mueller investigation and the liberal hope that they might violate all kinds of rules to deliver an outcome they desire.  Then their willingness to play that out through a vast media conglomerate owned by the Disney Company proved the bias that we’ve always known was there but only in speculation arrived at by observation.  Now we had the fact that people like Brian Ross were willing to tell a completely false narrative hoping to drive the contents of the story toward an outcome of pure fantasy—fake news.  It was now in front of our faces—there was no speculation.

By the time I arrived at my lunch meeting it was pretty obvious to me what Trump was doing.  After all, every good negotiator has the skills to do it—and Trump is great at negotiating.  Trump was just utilizing The Art of War to flush out his enemies and get them to reveal their positions—fighting those who have already lost, fighting on the high ground—and all that.  When Bill O’Reilly criticizes Trump for stumbling over every good thing that he does, but then Tweets something that fuels the fires of discontent—what Bill and virtually everyone miss is that those actions are purposeful.  Only a politician wants credit for all their little accomplishments—and they want to be showered in adoration for them.  In the past this is how the media was able to move presidents toward their liberal desires because deep down inside those politicians wanted to be loved.  Trump as a businessman understands where that love comes from—it isn’t given out by the media, or by the political class.  It is given out by results, and so long as results drive his motivations, Trump will always have enough by the public to do what he needs to—which is to produce tax cuts, or return Christmas to the White House—or stand up to North Korea.  Or make fun of Elizabeth Warren’s self-proclaimed Indian designation while standing in front of some elderly Navaho posing for pictures in front of a portrait of Andrew Jackson.  By doing outrageous things, it draws out your enemies from their hiding places making it so that you can then crush them.  I use that tactic every day in some form or another just as any good business person does.  And Trump is now using those tactics in a place where they have never been applied, and the results are devastating for the opposition.

When Trump gave his first interviews as president-elect he stated that he didn’t want to go after his old friends the Clintons—and I think he was sincere about that at the time.  Since he won the White House, why drive a stake through the heart of his enemies?  It wouldn’t look good after all to prosecute his former rival because he just might see her again in four years for the next presidential run.  Trump couldn’t be accused of throwing his political rivals in jail—so he indicated that he would let the matter go of Hillary’s crimes for which the FBI obviously covered up for her. But Trump set the stage, he sent out Tweets which outraged his enemies and he flew his flags to unify the country behind his cause.  He picked his fights with the NFL, with CNN, with LaVar Ball, with Little Rocket Man—with even the mayor of London and their supporters pushed hard to fight Trump which drew them off their perches in darkness to reveal their motivations in the light of day. And they have been slaughtered day by day because of it.  Now because of the Flynn plea, which is nothing new after all that Mueller investigation cost of time, money, and public opinion—now those who are much more guilty than Flynn are going to have to have justice applied to them—and that means people like Brian Ross and Hillary Clinton are now going to be held accountable—which is what Trump wanted all along.

To fight your enemies you have to draw them out to where you can see them—and that’s what Trump has been doing with his Tweets, and other methods.  By the time the smoke clears it will be the Trump White House that is still standing.  Everyone else will be vanquished in defeat, and that’s how America will be Great Again.

The Evil of Liberalism: They can’t live with us, and we can’t live with them

Once upon a time I lived in an apartment on the U.C. campus on the second floor.  Directly below was an extreme liberal who happened to be the director of a play, one of the most controversial in Cincinnati’s history that was running at the Taft Theater.  She was deeply connected to our local media, the U.C. campus and the politics of Cincinnati and using those connections she managed to slide through the many controversies and bring to life Equus for the extreme conservatives of the Queen City.  The play featured full nudity and sex on stage in front of everyone which I thought was weird at the time, I still do.  But living a floor up from the director I had an opportunity to speak to her about the whys and how’s and after learning more about her mind, I was even more disturbed.  She seemed like a nice person when you spoke to her and was even a little attractive for an older lady.  At the time I think she was in her 40s when I was in my 20s.  From the apartment windows next to my room I could see clearly down into her apartment through the reflection and she was constantly nude.  She seldom wore cloths which to a twenty year old seemed cool, but to the long view of my mind which lasts many lifetimes was pretty kooky.  I mean, as a species, we invented cloths for a reason—it’s nice to have a barrier against the elements of living.  But in her liberal view of the world, primal reflection was important so she thought there was merit in a native approach to life.  Therefore, her production of Equus in Cincinnati was more political than artistic and as nice as she was, she felt it was her right to attack the conservative sensibilities of her audience with art that insulted them—to wake them up and ignite in them an activism toward liberalism’s merits.  She was essentially using sex to sell the values of liberalism.

And talk about sexual harassment since we are going back as far as four decades and penalizing people for things so far back these days—as a young man, 19 to 25 I wanted to use my natural charisma and insight to ride my good looks into an acting/modeling career.  I had dated several models, my wife was a model and her sister was being groomed to be a model.  Being around attractive people a lot gave me a window into what goes on at photo shoots and modeling agencies.  I was just a little stunned when my photographer who was a lady doing my portfolios wanted me shirtless most of the time and she always wanted my pants unzipped.  I thought that was weird because if we were modeling pants for department stores why would they want to see them coming off?  Turns out this lady had the hots for me and how she wanted to photograph me had nothing to do with production photos, and more to do with her personal fantasies.   Looking back on it I could easily say she was sexually harassing me, but I would never think to do so.  I’m certainly no victim, and I never have been.  I thought it was kind of funny and I went about my business.  But I can easily see how wires get crossed in these things and I can promise from personal experience that most people who end up as models go through some of that.  My wife hated it and the moment she could get out of modeling, she did.  She always thought the people in that industry were creepy and thus, we ended up doing almost nothing with our lives that involved the entertainment industry.  I went on to write and do other kinds of work in entertainment on and off for the next twenty years, but my wife’s first instincts as a young attractive woman was correct.  The people in entertainment that were overwhelmingly liberal had this desperate attraction to primitive behavior and they really couldn’t keep their cloths on or the cloths of the people they are working for.  My wife’s sister went further with modeling than my wife did and actually ended up being considered for the New York scene, but she was not comfortable with nudity and that put the clamps on her career.  Because after all, producers, directors and modeling agencies figured that if this girl won’t show the goods, there are 1000 outside their doors who will—so they have no patience for such young women who won’t even show their tits.  Would Emilia Clarke have the opportunities she is having today if she didn’t get naked and have sex on-screen in the Game of Thrones?  Not a chance.  She’s a great talent, but she had to play the game.  That’s why she’s where she is today, not because she’s a great actress.  She had to feed the machine of liberalism to advance her career.

There are many other stories I could tell, but in reflection regarding the news of our day and whether or not we can live in a America where liberals have an equal say in our democratic process, as a way to manage the Republic for which we stand, one nation under God, indivisible—and all that– I am quite certain that we can’t.  For most of my life until about ten years ago I dealt with liberals often, and I was able to do so and not compromise my own very conservative beliefs.  I was a live and let live guy for sure.  I didn’t feel a need to convert a liberal to a conservative and if they were a little flaky I found some common ground to deal with them, which I still do.  One on one, I am very accommodating to people who don’t think the same way as I do.  But when I write, that is a much more private thing and I do so to share my ideas with people essentially because I want to help them become better.  If I can take my experiences and observations and make people around me better, I am willing to do it.

More though I have the feeling that liberalism is just evil—it is born out of evil and it works for evil needs only.  There is no place for it among a free people—because liberalism isn’t free. The intentions of liberals is to use the natural desires of our physical bodies to exploit our weaknesses and seduce us into a collective unification for an ultimate destination of evil action—whether its political support for mass killing, like abortion, or destroying evidence and manipulating the American intelligence agencies to give Hillary Clinton a free pass to keep her out of jail even though she committed acts of extreme abandonment of conscious righteousness.   Liberalism in every form allows for the furtherance of evil in our world and there is no way to avoid that conclusion.  Liberalism attaches itself to the weak and strives to make them equal in the world not by building them up, but by tearing down the world around them to the levels of their vile discontent.

Hollywood is throwing itself under the bus right now hoping to reset their reputation and throw people off the real trail—the far worse things that go on to people who want to be in movies or on the pages of a magazine.  And by casting such a wide net they hope to derail the world of politics such as in the case of Roy Moore who supposedly 40 years ago allegedly touched a girl who was 14.  The guy is 70 years old now—who the hell cares?  Those kinds of thoughts have long left the mind of an elderly man, and that makes them much more trustworthy.  There is no rectification with liberalism; there is no low that they will endure which is too much.  They are against virtually everything that is productive about human thinking and they represent a vile evil which is seductive and aims to destroy our virtue at every opportunity.

In my cases with the women I spoke about, especially the photographer I have always been ultra confident.  They may have had ideas but my raw conservatism was a big turn off to them which is why things never went further than what I’ve described.   In conversations with that play director I never thought Equus was anything more than an excuse to get people naked on a stage to make audiences uncomfortable—and call it art.   Heck even Daniel Ratcliff—the Harry Potter kid fell for that crazy liberalism crap when he played the lead role in Equus as one of his first opportunities after leaving the Harry Potter movies.   He did the full nudity thing in London where the play exhibited recently and for the same reasons that I described about the Taft Theater presentation.  Instead of the producers being my neighbor, it’s a new set of liberals who are using shock to advance their primal utterances and pull mankind into a flutter of liberalism from which it can never escape once seduced.  Daniel Ratcliff destroyed his career when he allowed his managers and industry producers to convince him that showing his goods on stage was a good thing to do.  Even Harrison Ford’s blockbuster status fell to earth in the 90s when he made the movie Presumed Innocent where he had sex with a woman very graphically on-screen.   Ford had all the accolades of a top-notch actor in Hollywood but that wasn’t enough, he wanted an Academy Award, and to do that you have to sign up for the exploits of liberalism.  Well, Ford never got his award and he has gone back to what made him great to begin with, but never to the same level—because he compromised himself.  Clint Eastwood went thought a similar spell with his movie Tightrope where he appeared as a sex crazed detective and was actually nude in the film.  Hollywood and liberalism in general is always looking to get people to compromise themselves from a lofty spot of admiration into a lowly figure no better than the collective goo of mass socialism.

I could actually write several books on this matter, but for brevity it is clear to me that liberalism is evil and cannot be reasoned with.  They cannot live in harmony with the rest of us and cannot have an equal stake in our American government.  I know as a very conservative person that I’ve bent over backwards a lot to attempt to respect other people’s views.  I’ve had a unique life full of rare opportunities and I’ve navigated them all unusually pure.  In my case I married early to a woman with an unusual commitment to purity and that kept me out of a lot of trouble.  But I credit myself with aligning myself with such a person to allow me to write all these articles now and to eventually conclude what the nature of liberalism truly is based on personal experience.  People like Harrison Ford can’t—because once you eat from the tree, you really lose your ability to criticize it—so it’s far easier to make liberal causes your new religion—like global warming is to many today—a scam designed to rectify the mistakes of their past.  If the God they shut out can be the new God that they walk on they fantasize that if they protect that God that their sins of the past might be forgiven.  But it can’t be.  Liberalism cannot live in the same world with the rest of us.  It doesn’t want to.  It needs chaos to grow, and emotional instability to sink roots into our lives, and it hates purity, justice, and resolution.  Liberalism only seeks destruction of intellect and human advancement, and is not conducive to the greater needs of an evolving species.  Therefore, I think it’s time that we declare it such and proceed forward on that foundation of thought.
