I read the majority of the 974 comments posted on my Jabba the Hutt picture at Reddit. One person commented that it got so many “up votes” because it had nothing to do with politics. I’m sure he\/she was right. Of course, the reader hadn’t visited my blog to understand that I’ve been as merciless<\/a> in my appraisal of our new President as Trump has been about everybody but Vladimir Putin. How about that O’Reilly interview<\/a> before the Superbowl? <\/p>\n

After squandering his post election months with a braggadocios self-congratulatory Victory tour he’s now woefully behind the eight ball starting up the Trump revolution he promised and the Apocalypse his seer David Bannon is so eager to consummate.<\/p>\n

Now the true believers who shouted “Lock her up” at Trump rallies are beseeching Americans to give their man a chance. Here’s an example from the Duluth News Tribune<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“. . . A challenge to readers: In the next month, see how many articles \u2014 and not just letters to the editor \u2014 and political cartoons are published that disrespect our president.<\/p>\n

Sorry Charlie: The protests against Donald Trump are nothing less than the first spanking administered to this nasty man\/child in his 72 years on Earth. <\/p>\n

I find myself being able to sleep better simply because Trump’s critics are beginning to kick up a fuss. Not to kick up a fuss is the most dangerous course Trump’s critics can take to his flurry of dim-witted executive orders. Silence would be confused with resignation, acceptance or approval of them. BTW -I am being euphemistic calling policies like the Islam ban and the building of the Wall dim-witted. <\/p>\n

And as to why Trump keeps saying that O’Reilly’s “killer” is worthy of respect. Well, if Putin does have a copy of a “golden shower” video then he really has our President by the short hairs. I guess that’s the male equivalent of pussy grabbing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
