Trolling getting harder day by day, huh
There’s plenty of crazy to go around...
A steady stream of crazy from the White House
For more than 18 months, critics of President Trump have repeatedly argued that he is an unhinged ignoramus, a serial fabulist, and dangerously unstable.
This week we found out that those closest to Trump feel the same way.
First came the initial leaks from “Fear,” Bob Woodward’s new book on the Trump White House. In it he depicts an executive branch experiencing a “nervous breakdown.”
Woodward chronicles Defense Secretary Jim Mattis not only comparing Trump’s behavior and knowledge to that of “a fifth- or sixth-grader,” but disobeying direct orders from the president. He writes of chief of staff John Kelly calling Trump an “idiot” and “off the rails,” and of White House aides, like economic adviser Gary Cohn, literally taking papers off the president’s desk so he won’t sign them. And succeeding!
Perhaps most damning are the words of Trump’s own lawyers, who were apparently so terrified of the president testifying in the special counsel’s investigation — because of his inability to tell the truth — that they appealed directly to Mueller not to subpoena him. Doing so, they warned, would convince foreign leaders that the president was an “idiot” and a “dumbbell” and make them ask, “What are we dealing with this idiot for?”
Woodward’s revelations, which are consistent with much of the reporting that’s been done about this White House over the past 20 months, would ordinarily be a devastating multiday story. But one thing we can always rely on with this White House is a steady stream of the crazy. So right on cue, no less than 24 hours after the Woodward leak, came the jaw-dropping New York Times op-ed that quickly blew up the news cycle.
Written by an anonymous White House “senior official,” the piece described the president as “amoral,” “congenitally dishonest,” “erratic,” lacking in any “discernible first principles,” prone to “repetitive rants” and “impulsiveness” that “results in half-baked, ill-informed, and occasionally reckless decisions.” On top of all this, the author proudly and bizarrely tried to reassure Americans that they shouldn’t be concerned about this because “there are adults in the room” — namely his own staff — who are steadily undermining Trump.

Supa, you should know better. Trying to change someone's mind cannot be done with mainstream media.
But when Paul Ryan steps forward as the op-ed, you should use that.
Trump has strong opinions, no experience and no respect for the institutions surrounding him.
That is what the people wanted, someone to 'shake things up'. These same people would buy apple products.. because 'I PAID 1000 BUCKS FOR THIS AND THE STOCK IS AT A BILLION! IT MUST BE BETTER!' when you are buying the image and constantly being fucked over, so the American mindset is money-oriented and has an intense dislike of traditional politics.
I view this two ways. Did the system need this kind of shake up? Absolutely.
Is this an indirect way to get more people to pay attention to their own country and pit libs vs cons so we can eventually shake hands and make a compromise? ABsolutely.
If you believe in a shadow government, this is the way to do it. How do you rally all your employees to do a better job or move on to better jobs? Put assholes in charge with the intent of thinning the herd.
How do you get the fall guy? Look around for an [NOBABE]Alex Jones[/NOBABE] type who believes he is doing the right thing... someone who is 200% sure he could do a better job ~ despite having no experience and switching fields well into middle age.
On the flipside, you put a guy into office that is ill-equipped. An everyday asshole that looks at the problems the world faces and points fingers, yells and stamps his feet about how things arent getting done. Someone who would, and has .. boiled a problem down to black-and-white, someone who puts people into categories instead of accepting that the problem is the complexities and who will lose vs who will win in every bill/regulation/decree/etc.
You cannot satisfy everyone, but you can play the entire country like a fiddle and see what happens. Or rather what is happening. You have millions of people who actually VOICE their opinions, now. People choosing their ethics, going to rallies and town halls, finding out how they feel about their country! That is a good thing.
In a country where youth sports and schools teach 'There are no losers, only degrees of winning' and common core.. you need someone like Trump to get the conservatives back into the position of teacher or coach, to teach you that life isnt fair and you suck at baseball.
You need the liberals to be vocal but accept that emotion and empathy are losing qualities and that you gotta get off your ass and make the change you seek, dont just whine endlessly and fuck other people's fun.
An ideal lib would be Ralph Nader. He actually did something to protect America. SJW's and libs these days.. are fighting not for equal rights, but inequality. Since when did history.. movies.. games and books need to be redone? That isnt equality. The new battlefield 5 game, set in WW2.. censors 'Jews' and 'Nazis' and puts women and blacks on the front lines. That is inequality. (Yes, I know there were women resistance and black troops in the African campaign and.. blah blah, not the point)
The point is made. I'm already long-winded. *clicks post reply*
