bobbieinok's JournalTrump wants govt to be run like in Middle Ages --3 main points
1) the ruler IS the country/state/nation
2) giving over your country's officials, diplomats to a forign power for 'interrogation' is accepted policy (ie, considering giving Russia former US ambassador, people giving info on Steele Dossier, etc, etc)
3) withdrawing all protection from previous leader (ie, denying any embassy aid to Obama in So Africa)
In other words Trump wants to eliminate everything painfully developed over centuries that has enabled countries to deal with each other without going to war
Where is the Izaak Walton League on T gang destroying the water, the environment?
The League has long worked for clean waters in US.
'The President's Brain is Missing' by John Scalzi---has anyone here read the book?
Title seems very timely,
'The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime' qte 1914
Read that T's remarks were pre-taped and then broadcast at planned time.Is this correct?
White or Hispanic/Latino,a? I didn't understand why Latino,a NOT white
So in 90s I asked colleagues who taught Spanish. They very politely explained that many Hispanics/Latinos-as had Indian (ie, Native American) ancestry and therefore were not pure Spanish (ie, Castillian).
Also African ancestry.
Never understood how some colleagues passionately loved and taught Spanish -- Mexican, etc -- language and cuture yet were anti-immigrant.
How many GOPers in Congress saw themselves as the kids fighting the Russians in 84 movie Red Dawn?
GOP stole 3 of last 5 elections. And NO PENALTY!?!?
Stolen sElections--2000 (5 to 4 in SCOTUS), 04 (Ohio), 16 (collusion with Russia)
Our system badly needs 'sum fixin'!
Anyone know anything re King John (brother of Richard Lionheart)? Sounds bit like Trump---
Horrific sexual predator, financial benefits to self and cronies, constant drive for revenge for any perceived slight, etc, etc
But maybe that's just standard for a successful ruler of the high middle ages?? And Trump would feel right at home in that period??
