i haven't really liked any president since jfk in terms of what they allegedly did for the country. my thinking of them is they all served the deep state in various ways usually involving invasions of small countries that wouldn't do as they were told by the empire. some of those presidents were easier on the narrative and except for jimmy they all invaded those small recalcitrant lands for the profit of a few fat cats. and profit is, along with power, the reason for their existence. buchanan here speaks of some variation in that previously predictable process;
Four days after he described Christine Blasey Ford, the accuser of
Judge Brett Kavanaugh, as a “very credible witness,” President Donald
Trump could no longer contain his feelings or constrain his instincts.
With the fate of his Supreme Court nominee in the balance, Trump let
his “Make America Great Again” rally attendees in Mississippi know what
he really thought of Ford’s testimony.
“‘Thirty-six years ago this happened. I had one beer.’ ‘Right?’ ‘I
had one beer.’ ‘Well, you think it was (one beer)?’ ‘Nope, it was one
beer.’ ‘Oh, good. How did you get home?'”
‘I don’t remember.’ ‘How did you get there?’ ‘I don’t remember.’
‘Where is the place?’ ‘I don’t remember.’ ‘How many years ago was it?’
‘I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know.'”
By now the Mississippi MAGA crowd was cheering and laughing.
Trump went on: “‘What neighborhood was it in?’ ‘I don’t know.’
‘Where’s the house?’ ‘I don’t know.’ ‘Upstairs, downstairs, where was
it?’ ‘I don’t know. But I had one beer. That’s the only thing I
remember.'”
Since that day three years ago when he came down the escalator at
Trump Tower to talk of “rapists” crossing the U.S. border from Mexico,
few Trump remarks have ignited greater outrage.
Commentators have declared themselves horrified and sickened that a
president would so mock the testimony of a victim of sexual assault.
