so here is my standard apolitical caveat; don't take anything I say as embracing or dismissing any inherent bias or affiliation - that's your baggage and I don't give a shit.
nobody knows -
this stuff better than me / about taxes and income better than I do / more about construction than I do / campaign finance than I do / consultants better than I do / more about drones than anybody / more about this type of technology than I do / in the history of America has never known more about infrastructure / more about H1-B / more about H2-B / more about ISIS than the generals do / more about the press / more about environmental impact statements / more about the environment than most people / more about renewable s than anyone on earth / more about courts than any human being on earth / more about steelworkers than anybody that's ever run for office / I know more about golf than Obama does
nobody knows more about banks, trade, nuclear weapons, tax laws, law suits, offense, defense, devaluation, money, the system, debt, the game, contributions, politicians, the other side...
so can you go into greater detail? go on, explain.
then there is the list of dismissals and resignations. 415 as of 25th May 2020. Apparently, a number of these people were doing a good job until they were doing a bad job
and the tweets. I cannot believe that someone in such a position of power would communicate in such a tacky manner.
but the other day after the debate, I gave pause for some introspection. It was after reading a Facebook post. Someone accused him of being a war monger. So many subsequent replies asked the question that came to my mind. Exactly what war are you referring to? Then I thought about his negotiations between the Arabs and the Israelis. His efforts in North Korea. I could list the things he has, or hasn't done that sucked shit but then I had this thought.
maybe he has a contempt for the very system he was appointed to serve? Reminds me of a boss I had years ago who used say if I was in charge, this is the way I would do it. Well we have a prime example of a person who actually went and did just that. Did things his own way and to hell with the process. Maybe those who have adhered to the process for many years; the career politicians, feel contempt for him from both sides for that very reason.
then I think of the luxury of thinking about an alternative as a hypothetical. The god awful mess if Hilary was in charge.
finally I think of the nation of America in one way. Not just a mess, but a total mess.
