The Goldfinger Theory.

[byronius]

Digby

The rest of the world now believes that scourge of our planet is us.

I wish I understood why people persist in seeing his rhetoric as isolationist. He sounds to me like a Bond villain announcing that he seeks world domination. Of course he always issues disclaimers that he doesn't. But it's obvious that he believes the US has the right to dictate how the world works and has no respect for multilateral institutional or international law or treaties.

It's not the "madman" theory. It's the "Goldfinger theory." And that's not exactly the same thing.

He's itching for war. You can feel it.

Mueller's Kitchen's getting hot. He's got to get out of there somehow. Even if it's over the ashes of everyone else.

1. If it helps you to better see how it all pans out ,given yer theory,

look at the end of the movie from Fort Knox to Goldfinger being sucked out the window in flight !

2. We elected a whole party full of James Bond villains.

And the real people pulling their strings - the Koch Bros., Goldman Sachs, and Robert Mercer - will never get punished.
