Is he totally insane?

I think that both candidates, Crooked Hillary and myself, should release detailed medical records. I have no problem in doing so! Hillary?

Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival time again

Do you like boats, Victorian buildings, festivals? Come on over. It's 2 hours from Seattle, an easy place to get to. And, we can meet!

http://nwmaritime.org/events/wooden-boat-festival/
Sept 9-11. There's lots to do and see inside the festival, but lots to see and do outside also.

I doubt there is any lodging left nearby, but if you want to make it more than a day trip, we've room for campers or tents, drop me a line.

Trumps twit-whining again

I have been drawing very big and enthusiastic crowds, but the media refuses to show or discuss them. Something very big is happening!


ETA the next
Crooked Hillary is flooding the airwaves with false and misleading ads - all paid for by her bosses on Wall Street. Media is protecting her!


And my take on it...

I was in an abusive relationship

This was many years ago and the lessons learned have never left me. Trump's strategy reminds me of it.

They say or do something and immediately contradict themself, then get angry at others for not understanding and use that an excuse to lash out. It's always something else's fault for their nasty tantrums. They spread fear and offer a chance to belong to a tribe to deal with those fears.

Spread unreasonable fears, isolate your followers by pretending to be the only one who really understands them, inspire dependence, be unclear and contradictory, then blame everyone else for your own actions.

"You made me act this way". "How can you be so stupid to not understand?" "How dare you question me? ". Etc.

It's appalling to see so many fall for this abusive behavior and I am very glad the press is starting to call him on it.

Donny got Twitter access back. Oh dear. Keep it up, Donny!

It is not "freedom of the press" when newspapers and others are allowed to say and write whatever they want even if it is completely false!

I am not only fighting Crooked Hillary, I am fighting the dishonest and corrupt media and her government protection process. People get it!
57m

Crooked Hillary Clinton is being protected by the media. She is not a talented person or politician. The dishonest media refuses to expose!
57 min

My rallies are not covered properly by the media. They never discuss the real message and never show crowd size or enthusiasm.
5h

If the disgusting and corrupt media covered me honestly and didn't put false meaning into the words I say, I would be beating Hillary by 20%
5h


The failing @nytimes, which never spoke to me, keeps saying that I am saying to advisers that I will change. False, I am who I am-never said
5h

The failing @nytimes talks about anonymous sources and meetings that never happened. Their reporting is fiction. The media protects Hillary!

Trump "will never ever forgive the people of Connecticut" if they don't vote for him. Woe!

http://wshu.org/post/trump-holds-rare-rally-ct-slams-gov-malloy-clinton-and-media
He went as far as to say that he would blame voters if he were to lose, after spending $50 million of his own money on the primaries and what he called “a fortune” on the general election.

“Can you imagine how I would feel if I spent all of that money, all of this energy, all of this time, and lost?” he said. “I will never ever forgive the people of Connecticut, I will never forgive the people of Florida, and Pennsylvania and Ohio. But I love them anyway.”
