As I
watched The
Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell on MSNBC on Thursday evening, I watched
as he talked about the New York Times Op-Ed anonymous writer who wrote “I
am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration” about the chaos and
out of control Trump and his White House goings on. The number of denials were exploding.
O’Donnell
showed a picture graphic thumb nail size pictures of all (I think 25+) Trump officials who are currently saying “IT WASN’T ME” about who is Anonymous. Immediately
I thought of Shaggy - "It Wasn't
Me". I went directly to YouTube and searched for the song. I found it as well as one with lyrics. I listened… I danced... then sang along with the
lyric version. I’ve always loved that
song. Take a listen, the dancing bug
will jump inside you. LOL
When
last have you seen White House officials making a declaration denying a
negative incident trying to protect their ass?
Nixon!
When
have you seen the Vice President of the United States making rounds on the Sunday
morning cable newscast shows trying to make everyone believe that he is not the person who wrote a scathing rebuke article about the President that he is serving with where the person is, for now, known as “Anonymous?” Never?
When was
the last time you’ve seen such upheaval and chaos in the White House? Nixon!
You do remember
what happened with Nixon, right? If you
don’t there are a plethora of books and videos available. 😊
It’s
almost as if there is a puppet who is puppeteering the cast of characters in this
White House and every incident in the Nixon White House is being enacted in
this Trump White House.
Americans
should learn from the past and do their best not to repeat it. But blind ambition and greed will lead all to
fall with a thud harder than the concrete ground they may be standing on.
I
understand that the people who were grown ups and who voted for Nixon during
those years are older and maybe a few are dead.
This was between 1968 through 1974. Where were you in 1968?
So that means
the lesson learned in that period is lost on the generation who came
after. We have a new crop of “I don’t
care about the state of our Union, I only care about my party” group of
people. Unfortunately, these people do
not read history books and/or do not pay much attention to politics and they
don’t realize that politicians work for them not the other way around.
As I
watched George
Papadapoulos’ interview on CNN with Jake Tapper, I felt that George was
lying on some things incredulously over and over again.
I’m sure this interview was conducted before his 14-day prison sentence for
lying to the FBI regarding the now ongoing trial about Russian collusion in the Trump Presidential Election, but because he is such a fluid liar he didn’t care that his
sentencing was upcoming. This will come
back and bite him in the ass.
He said
that he wants to continue in politics.
He said that he is a young man, only 31 years old, and he plans to run
for office in the future. And here come
the dumb voters lining up to cast a vote for him—just like they did for a man
who openly said that he just grabs women by the pussy and they always say or do
nothing.
With the
stroke of a vote, you, American citizen, have the power to decide who represents
you in a government that makes the rules that you, American citizen, will have
to adhere to.
You,
American citizen, decides who determines your healthcare, how you survive in
your senior years (and I mean old age not high school senior).
You,
American citizen, decides who will care whether you’re able to eat, and/or pay your
mortgage when you find yourself without employment.
So, why are
you, American citizen comfortable with giving a man power over you by casting a
vote for him/her?
When the
United States President said that he fell asleep during President Obama’s first
2018 campaign speech over this past weekend, that should worry everyone. Why? Because an astute president would want
to know what his predecessor has to say about him. He would want to be prepared for his
rebuttal. His actions were proving the NYT
Op-Ed writer’s words to be true. In my
opinion, this president is proving himself to be lazy, careless, feckless and
more!
Each and
every person who has come out pleading their innocence in writing this op-ed
are suspects. Well, maybe one or two on
the list are not capable of doing something this brave. (Though I must admit that this type of bravery
is questionable.)
Omarosa Managault
Newman appeared on MSNBC's
Weekend with Alex Witt (see video here) and she discussed this President’s
actions, his unfitness for the job, his demeaner and the fact that a number of
the senior staff members would reference #TFA (Time to Act) in text messages to each other after the
unhinged President of the United States would behave in a manner worth enacting
The 25th Amendment. By the
way, Omarosa’s book Unhinged
is #1 on the NYT Best Seller’s list.
Some look
at this as an attack on the President. But
don’t you feel that we as Americans should be more concerned about the contents
of this Op-Ed rather than who wrote it and why they have chosen to be anonymous?
Omarosa mentioned that if this person were to
reveal himself/herself, the hurt that this president and his cohorts would assault
this person with, he/she would never be able to work in government again. Is that ok with you?
I like
to look at things in the perspective of “what if this incident involved a
family member?” If my child secretly discussed
with me his teacher’s actions in class but didn’t want me to tell because he
was afraid of the consequences, I would find a way to let someone who can
possibly fix the problem without “outing” my child. Wouldn’t you?
This is what Anonymous is doing. This person went to the New York Times in
hopes that someone, a grown-up, will do something and save our country. Instead, everyone is more interested in who
he or she may be, the one who dared to write this book. Classic Elephant
in the Room!
We cast
a vote for people whom we believe we can trust with our country, our future, protecting us and the country by any means necessary. Instead we get cowards, greedy, self-centered,
and self-absorbed candidates. We must learn
about our candidates. Study them! Find out about their voting records, their honesty.
Country and its Citizens First!
