3. Wake up and call a spade a spade, not a gardening tool

You do not have your tinfoil hat on!

Like you, I am cautious about not sounding like a conspiracy nut. I preface my logically drawn conclusions with "I'm not into conspiracy theories or anything, it is just that.....". The "just that" usually refers to a perfectly logically drawn conclusion.

Given what we know about Shitler's need to stay in office or end up in jail, the far right's agenda for the supreme court, and the way Shitler's pal Putin deals with threats to his power logical observers must suspect foul play. We can't be so afraid of sounding like kookie conspiracy nuts that we fail to put two and two together.

If the shoe were on the other foot the right-wing democracy haters would be shouting accusations from the roof of the Fox news building. And the accusations would be false because democrats, although capable of corruption, believe in the rule of law (okay with some transgressions, but politics is politics and you get my point).

The grifters in the white house and their international band of greedy power-hungry thieves stop at nothing in consolidating their power. It is not tinfoil hat territory to imagine them rubbing their greedy hands together and saying it was like taking candy from a baby. All the while knowing that the democracy lovers are too upright to accuse them of things they do in near broad daylight. They will stop at nothing in their lust for power and we deny that fact to our detriment. Let's call a spade a spade, not a gardening tool.
