Trump Is Serious!!!!!

Post by RayThom »

I like the imagery.

Image


When I hear this under appreciated piece of music I think of our P.T. Barnum in the White House.
Dreams / Grace Slick

Oh I, I believe in magic and I believe in dreams
Until I heard the thunder rumble
I saw the mountains crumble -
Then came the circus so I followed it's parade
With all the fancy lion tamers, high-wire fiery flamers
Ravers of every kind
I saw those high-stepping sexy witches
Sons of satin, sons of bitches - all were there in my dreams
all in my dreams
Sodom and Gomorrah
I see you're back in town.
And though you build a wall around you
The multitude still found you
Just like a circus to start with a parade
Oh but a parade of the
Fancy lion tamers, high-wire fiery flamers
Ravers of every kind
I saw those high-stepping sexy witches
Sons of satin, sons of bitches - all were there in my dreams
all in my dreams
Now I can see the whole world is just a circus
And I can tell that the circus why it's just hell
And then I heard a drummer rolling
I found my seat's been stolen
Then a spotlight hit me going wild in center ring for all you
Fancy lion tamers, high-wire fiery flamers
Ravers of every kind
I saw those high-stepping sexy witches
Sons of satin, sons of bitches - all were there in my dreams
all in my dreams
My dreams my dreams
Well I, I believe in magic and I believe in dreams
I said I, I believe in magic and I, I believe in dreams
I believe in dreams
I said I, I believe in magic, I believe in dreams
I believe in dreams, magic, magical dreams
I wanted to sing that I believe in dreams
Magical dreams, oh I believe in dreams
I said I, I believe in magic, I still believe in dreams

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

I read Art of the Deal when I was 17 and I blabbed to anyone who would listen what a horror show Trump would be - many of my then coworkers, friends & family thought I was overreacting. They don’t say much now, and I don’t say ‘I told you so’ because the whole shit show is just too horrifying that there’s no joy to be had even in that.

Thanks for sharing that TT, Sue.

Me, from November 19, 2010, when Trump was making noise about running against Obama; (oh, and look what else! :o ):
Sue U wrote:Yeah, this is just another Trump scam. The guy is a relentless self-promoter and a weasel of the first order; why is he always referred to as "billionaire Donald Trump" rather than "failed casino operator Donald Trump" or "narrowly-avoided-personal-bankruptcy-through-legal-sleight-of-hand Donald Trump"?
Lord Jim wrote:On the other hand, if a billionaire who was actually qualified....3 term NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg....a serious, thoughtful, competent, and capable man....

Were to make the run, I'd give very serious consideration to supporting him.
I would also give serious consideration to Bloomberg. I wouldn't vote for him, but I would think the party that nominated him is probably not completely dominated by total idiots.
Plus ça change ...

The Daily Show last nite (16 Dec 19) featured a devastating man-on-the-street episode with people waiting to see POTUS at his Hershey PA rally.

Near the end it concentrated on a man who said we must "read the transcript" and "I have not read the transcript' "We must do our own research and not be led like sheep" and "I have not done the research" H L Menken must be in the pantheon of demigods of political philosophy.
