And Now The TRUTH About Trump
[Comments enabled]
I have since the day of the election said that Trump was and is an out-and-out fraud.If you recall I expressed grave concern during the election season that he really didn't mean it on health reform -- despite not one but three planks in his platform on the campaign web page related to same. A large part of my skepticism came from the fact that repeated inside attempts to obtain some sort of solid indication in public on the details or some sort of interaction or meeting were rebuffed.
Then, on election night, those planks disappeared. Literally gone while the votes were still being counted, as soon as the results were evident. They've never been seen again, although there was, during the transition, a brief flirtation through not one but two people I know (and who have impeccable credentials in terms of actual inside knowledge as a physician) with an alleged meeting on the issue. One such overture was postponed twice and then canceled with no reschedule, the second was just flat-out canceled.
And that was that.
Why do I spend two paragraphs+ on this specific issue? Because literally nothing else matters when it comes to the federal and state budgets along with actual economic progress for working Americans. Nothing. Not trade, not coal, nothing. The American worker has seen essentially zero advancement in real wages and in terms of purchasing power is being screwed blind every single year as an inescapable consequence of advancing federal debt. This is not a function of politics but rather of math. The federal government under both Obama and now Trump has blown a huge bubble in asset markets as a means of covering this up, but such bubbles are always unstable. Whether Obama knew this is open to some debate but that Trump knows it is inescapable; as a real estate developer for decades who nearly got his head cut off early in his career by one he's well-aware of it, and as an employer for the same decades he knows damn well every one of his employees has been gang-raped by the medical monopolists and deficit spending scam to cover up same.
What has become increasingly clear, however, is that Trump is even worse than a fraud -- he wants the power of the office that Obama abused for himself. That has become increasingly clear over the last 18 months or so and now he has come out and flatly admitted it.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday launched a fresh attack on Attorney General Jeff Sessions, accusing him of jeopardizing the chances of re-election for two Republican congressmen by bringing criminal charges against them just before the midterm elections.To be clear -- I wrote on one of these cases already, that of Christopher Collins on insider-trading charges. That indictment should be against the entire House leadership, not just Collins, for their criminal malfeasance in allowing him to sit as a Congressman while a member of a board of directors of a company. The real story with Collins is how that happened.
