The Meaning Of Political Protest

Now a days there are too many that are willing to sit on the sidelines and shrug at the events that are killing this country….their excuse is ‘there is nothing we can do about it’….well that is defeatism plain and simple and I for one will not embrace that cowardly situation.

About ten years ago I wrote a post on the meaning of protest and I offer it here for those that may not have been around that far back.

The Meaning of Political Protest

It is a simple thing….either you want change or you are happy being bullied by the government but are too meek to do anything about it.

Me I will do what I can to change things….I know I am a small voice but I will not accept this crap as my country is dying under the boot of stupid.

“I Can Do Anything”

That is the way Donny sees his presidency….that he has the power to do crazy things….and so far it looks like he may be right….

President Trump took some time from his Thursday evening Rose Garden speech to revel in just how much “crazy” power he has.

The president addressed a crowd of American hunters and outdoorsmen, which included billionaire Bass Pro Shops founder Johnny Morris.

“That means you can sell a lot of fishing rods, Johnny. You’re going to sell a lot of rods. I could have made it so you couldn’t sell,” Trump said. “You couldn’t sell anything. I could have banned fishing,” Trump said, referring to his presidential powers.

“I’ll tell you what. The power of this office is crazy. I could have banned fishing and driven Johnny right the hell out of business. OK. I think I’m going to do that. Just maybe just a quick order, just for a day or two, till he calls me and he says, ‘Please, President, please, you’re putting me out of business, sir.’”

His fishing comment was met with disdain and confusion online.

“The Constitution continues to offer impeachment and removal as an option,” The Atlantic’s Conor Friedersdorf wrote.

Others saw it as a chance for Alaska’s Democrat Senate nominee and fisherwoman Mary Peltula to take advantage of yet another Trump gaffe, as “I could have banned fishing” seemed tailor-made for an attack ad with Trump’s face all over it.

After making his statement he goes off on some tangent that no one knows what he is talking about…..just babbling for dollars.

This is not a big deal but what is in his statement that he can do anything with his ‘crazy’ powers….apparently that is true for he has been proving it for almost 2 years now.

Can we eliminate this tool….please.

Donny At The UN

As per tradition the US president gives a speech to the UN…..but most presidents touch on issues that represent a grasp of world affairs….and then along came the babbling buffoon…..and threatens genocide in front of the General assembly….

In his address to the UN General Assembly on Tuesday, President Trump threatened Iran with “annihilation” and “hell,” but said he believes there would be a deal after the midterm elections, and said later in the day that his envoys held talks with Iranian officials.

Trump told the General Assembly that he has a “big decision to make” regarding Iran, repeating a talking point he’s used in recent media interviews.

“Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before, maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East or even the world? Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again? Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations?” the president said.

“But I believe we’ll make a deal right after the election because it doesn’t make sense for them not to. They’re waiting to see how I do in the midterm election. What they don’t realize is that I’m not running. I did that already and won in a landslide. We won in a giant landslide, and I’ll be here for two and a half years. The Republican Party is running, and I’ll be helping them. But I am not running. I gave absolutely no credence and will not give credence to the election when it comes to Iran,” he added.

Trump also boasted of his attack on Venezuela and takeover of Venezuela’s oil industry, saying “to the victor belongs the spoils.” He also took aim at Cuba, where civilians are suffering under a ramped-up US oil embargo, calling it a “failed state.”

All that smacks of authoritarian bullshit…..can it be used against his loud obnoxious mouth?

The rest of the speech was pretty much….blah, blah, blah….same regurgitation as always.

After thumping his chest like a sex crazed primate he them attacks the media….

President Donald Trump lashed out at a CNN journalist Tuesday morning at the United Nations, telling her, “You should not be here covering me,” as the Department of Justice prepares to defend in federal court his ban on that media outlet, MS NOW and Politico from the White House.

CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins had asked Trump about a new poll that found two-thirds of Americans do not think the U.S. is winning its war with Iran.

“When will it end?” Collins asked the president.

“So it’s an honor to be here. I’m surprised that CNN is here covering me,” Trump told reporters as he gestured at Collins, before he entered the General Assembly in New York to address that body.

Collins interjected, “The United Nations allowed us in here, sir.”

The world is really starting to see what an infantile bully this moron truly is and they will make work arounds….

Once again the clown prince of absurdity embarrassed himself and the country….any wonder why people do not like this twat?
