He may be a 4 star general now. But dude is a soldier. He would break that little worm in half as easily as I would break a real worm in half. And you just know he wanted to.

But he understands discipline, including the most important type, self discipline. Only way he would harm anyone is in self defense.

Republicans love the idea of discipline for others. But have no self discipline.

He has the Tower of Power. Few do. You don’t get the tower by rank. You earn it.

His defense of racial policies in the military to that dickweed from my state wiped out any questions I has about him. It was not reluctant. He was pissed. And was not reading off notes. From the heart.

Miller found a woman willing to marry him. 🙄

There isn't a single redeeming characteristic in Miller. I sincerely doubt he has a sense of humor, he's certainly not an attractive man. I don't believe him to be overly wealthy, and his education isn't being used to help humanity.

That leaves one thing that might attract a woman, but I don't believe that one thing could possibly be big enough, or important enough, for anyone to pledge their troth to Miller for a lifetime.

He's the poster boy for incels everywhere, yet........

I didn't want to pick a tweet where she's pushing her vile ideology, but they seem like a love match.

I'm not kidding, when asked about the children separated at the border, she said she felt absolutely nothing for them.

Wonder how she'd feel if it happened to her?

I've seen Miller with a smile on his face, other than when he's inflicting pain on someone else.

Fri Jun 25, 2021, 10:31 AM

Reincarnation is a widely but not universally held idea. Admittedly, the acceptance of reincarnation as an existent orderly-ness in the universe (like gravity) is a currently non-verifiable belief. In my view, every child born manifests proof that they arrive with (as though) a traveling bag of pre-chosen unique desires. It is like the inner beings bring previous choices, preferences, patterns with them.

Now, onto politics. One sees in the photos of Goebbels and of Miller, and the photos of Mussolini and Trump that (in each) the same 'self' (the same conscious-being-identity) is behind the pictured eyes. Trump is non-different from Mussolini on the inner-self plane. Trump was Mussolini. Miller was Goebbels.

Mussolini may have been given a new karmic set-up wherein he was born in a flourishing country, born to sufficient wealth to not want, born into resources to share. In other words, given the opportunity to do atonement; the opportunity to choose decency over desire.

Trump [soul, self, identity, "I"] chose poorly. His ship is has run aground, sinking by the shoals, because desires, choices, actions, habits are hard to turn off course, even when it is obvious that re-direction is rational.

The one reborn as Trump could not change his chosen karmic-trajectory and instead lived a life seeking power, wealth, control, dominance and debauchery. His future is certain, and certainly not to be desired.

His vigorous defense of the military’s racial training was not rote or weak. It was heartfelt.

I’m sure he understood immediately that in that crowd of vipers that professional language is seen as weak. So adapted his comportment to meet the situation.

Rather like when Joe told Trump during the first debate, "Will you shut up, man", omitting "the fuck" part because he was on national television. I am quite sure that is how he said it in his head. Sometimes with these stunningly obscene people, there are no reasonable, professional responses. You have to speak in a language that they can comprehend.

Someone with his presence should have been saying that to Stephen Miller at least hourly for his whole life. Pissant little racist POS.

Weird reference here. I once read a post-apocalypse novel wherein some people's faces morphed into a visage that accurately reflected who they really were. SM is just like that.
