I Agree with President Trump!

After hearing President Donald Trump speaking at another one of his rallies, I realized that I totally agree with him. We do have to protect America from those who are trying to corrupt our Democracy. We have to rid our borders from people who are here to change our philosophy and step over our Constitution by shouting out propaganda and downright lies. False accusations have to be dealt with through the proper legal channels. The laws of our land should not be ignored by those in power. 

Actually Mr. President, I totally agree with you… so when are you going to step down?

Trumpism!..... A Cult?

One of the meanings of a cult, as listed in the Merriam -Webster Dictionary, is "a group of people with extreme dedication to a leader, an excessive and misplaced admiration for someone that is popular among a certain segment of society." They will accept anything that person says as truth even if it is clearly proven otherwise. Facts become the figment of his imagination and lies become his reality. Those who believe in him will follow him to the end of time!

Although this definition does not encompass a particular religious following, it does, however, sound familiar to me in today’s political arena. President Trump has exhibited behavior similar to cult leaders, drawing his followers in, like sheep, to an unwavering acceptance no matter what he says or does. “I can shoot a gun on 5th Avenue and people will still vote for me” is a statement most similar to what he said at one of his many religious style campaign rallies. Propaganda used to its utmost level, only to gain the approval of his audience.

What is it that allows people to follow someone who offers nothing about him other than his very own words of praise and self-approval as though he were a god? “I can do it all by myself” is a statement often used by President Trump. When does this person who seems to carry the approval of 40% of our population cross the line? It seems to me he does this every day, but his polls still show a sense of extreme adoration in his favor. I, as many others, are waiting patiently for the shoe to drop. Every day Trump falls deeper in a hole that even his followers eventually won’t jump into. A non-reader, not interested in valued information, along with an unscrupulous mind filled with extreme fantasy like behavior coming directly from Grimm Fairy Tales, cannot ultimately sustain himself.

“Beware of the wolf in sheep’s clothing” as well as “Beware of Greeks bearing gifts” are just two commonly used phrases throughout the years that we have to revisit. No tax returns along with outright lies, bullying with early morning tweets and most recently an accusation to a new level of insanity towards our past President is proving Trump will soon reach his true level of incompetence. The Peter Principle never fails for people like Trump. They create their own failure just by being themselves. I hope his followers stop following before they are caught in his web and go down with the ship. Unfortunately, his adversaries will have to suffer as well. It’s happened before, history does repeat itself, and in our forever changing world we live in, fast and furious, it can happen sooner than later.

Soaring Markets…..Obama or Trump?

Yes…Our Stock Market is reaching greater heights than ever before! Did anyone notice that nothing has happened yet? Nothing has changed since Trump was inaugurated. All this has taken place because our markets were stabilized after eight hard years of keeping things in check so that our economy had a chance, like a sick person, to heal properly and reach the comfort zone it has today. Wow, how forgetful we or 40% of us are. To think that the “magic” words coming from Trump concerning our so-called “slowest reboot of an economy ever” is causing this to happen, is utterly ridiculous! If companies were failing, talk alone would do nothing. They were sound at the time of the 2016 election and to Trump’s good fortune he had a sane Obama administration to follow. But, of course, Donald Trump takes the credit for anything except his own failures. Those he blames on anyone around him, preferably past President Barack Obama.

Wake up America! We are where we are because of the last eight years! We will have plenty of time to judge what is happening now in the days ahead. So far….NOTHING!

COMPARE OUR ECONOMY TO A DIET!!

I know this may sound silly, but everything in life has its set of rules. Things like, “What goes up…must come down!”  We know a term like “Slow and steady” is the way to success. I imagine through trial and error we have come to certain conclusions and they have stuck in our everyday thinking. We tell our children words like, “Time will tell.”

Eight years ago, our Economy, for a lack of a better term, was going into the toilet! This is a true fact! It seems that some people, at least 40% of our population, have forgotten that we, the USA, were on the brink of an economic crisis heading in a downward spiral. It has taken 8 years of hard work and perseverance following a regulatory code that helped to bring us back into the future. It’s hard to give up greed for a set of annoying rules. Well, we are now once again being faced with hard choices.  Do we allow ourselves that rush of immediate gratification like a shot in the arm of Heroin and become addicted to that same old, living on the edge, possibly hurting people on the sidelines, or do we fess up and realize that true success requires a work ethic guided by rules that work for everyone.

When you are dieting, if you don’t follow a set of rules, you will not reach success. It is true that someone who loses weight at a fast rate will gain it back more quickly. We know that taking a slow and steady path to weight loss, whatever program is chosen, will ensure success. Of course, this also requires a visit to a Doctor, someone with knowledge who can guide you in the right direction. The same goes for our Government. We need a leader who is well-versed in all of our economic strategies, based on trial and error from past experiences, or at least, willing to ask professionals for their opinions. I hate to say it….but we have neither!

IMMIGRATION….WHY IS IT THE TOP PRIORITY?

Based on what I hear and see from our new Trump Administration, the reason why they chose this direction to go in as a first priority is because it was truly going to show his ultimate power to decide on who stays and leaves this country. Law and Order can mean many things. We live in a country that already has its Law and Order in place. There is always room for improvement, but what they are doing is promoting a Police State which will start with the idea of only performing legal acts, to then slowly overlapping into darker areas based on undocumented information called alternative facts or plain old lies. This is an Administration that has proven that alternative facts are acceptable as long as it benefits their cause. Little by little, Law and Order will become a Police State. Once accepted as normal behavior, it will be that much more difficult to change. That ultimate power will further enable many other future policies of this Trump/Bannon Administration. Power is the most important goal. The easiest way to accomplish this is prey on those that can't fight back. A cowardice method, but very effective if allowed. They keep talking about accomplishing the goals he promised his base, but there are many more millions of people Trump will have to contend with who oppose this method of future Martial Law. Immigration is the cover up for Ultimate Power!

ODE TO FRIENDS...AND ANYONE WHO CARES!

T'WAS WAS THE 31ST DAY AND ALL THROUGH THE HOUSE, NOT A CONGRESSMAN OR SENATOR,
YOU CAN ALMOST HEAR A MOUSE!
TAKING A RECESS IS ALL THEY COULD DO, WITH WHAT IS GOING ON, WOULDN'T YOU?

BEHAVIOR, BIZARRE, A KIND WORD AT BEST, IS FLOODING THE AIR, PUTTING OUR NEWS TO A TEST.
HIS WORDS, RESONATING THROUGHOUT, ARE CAUSING CHAOS AND ANGST,
BECAUSE AFTER HE SPEAKS, ONE HAS TO FILL IN THE BLANKS!

TRUMP AND HIS CREW, WORKING OFF THE CUFF, ARE NOT INTENDING THEIR AGENDA BE A BLUFF.
IMMIGRATION-HEALTH CARE- SECURITY-NATO-ABORTION-TAXES-JOBS…THERE IS NO END!
IF ALL IS ACCOMPLISHED, THERE GOES OUR DEMOCRACY, RIGHT AROUND THE BEND!

WITH NO REAL PLAN, HE GOES ON AND ON, REPEATING HIS EMPTY PROMISES
WHILE AT MARA LAGO, GETTING A TAN.
HIS NEWS CONFERENCE, IF YOU CALL IT THAT, A WASTED 77 MINUTES OF TIT FOR TAT.
QUESTIONS UNANSWERED, TO SAY THE LEAST, FINALLY ENDING AND LETTING OUT THE BEAST.

OUR ONLY HOPE IS THAT PEOPLE SEE….IT TAKES A LOT MORE THAN WORDS TO KEEP US FREE!
ACTION IS A MUST…. WE HAVE TO KEEP SWEEPING UP THE UNSETTLING DUST.
FAKE NEWS, HE CALLS IT, WHEN THEY DON'T AGREE. THEY HAVE TO RESPOND AND NOT JUST LET IT BE.

C’ MON GIRLS, FOLLOW ME…NO NEED TO GIVE UP YOUR SHOPPING SPREE…
JUST GET UP AT 4… AND DO SOME MORE!
THINK OF ANYTHING… A JOKE OR A POEM WILL DO…
GETTING IT DOWN ON PAPER WILL HELP FROM GETTING BLUE.

WORDS DO MATTER, SO LET’S BE HEARD…
AFTER ALL, HE, LIKE A LITTLE BIRD, TWEETING AWAY...
ANYTHING THAT COMES TO HIS MIND THAT DAY!

NO MORE SITTING BACK AFRAID TO SPEAK,
EVEN OUR SECURITY FINDS IT NECESSARY TO LEAK!
REPUBLICANS MUST FOLLOW AND CALL HIM OUT,
REMEMBER, AMERICA FIRST, TO REMOVE ANY DOUBT!

IT’S 6:25 AND I AM JUST ABOUT DONE…
I'LL TURN ON THE NEWS…OH GET ME A GUN!
AND, BY THE WAY, THAT IS EASY TO DO…
JUST ANOTHER REASON FOR YOU TO BE YOU!

I hate being a "I told you so", but " I told you so!"

During the course of the 2016 Election Campaign I wrote so much about the negative outcome that could prevail if a Trump win took place. I hate being a "I told you so", but " I told you so!" I just can't believe it has taken even this long to realize all the negative possibilities and scenarios spilling out every minute of every day. Just this week, seeing Trump speaking with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, and referring to our news media as " fake news" was undeniably shameful! His rambling on and using references to Hillary Clinton and the Democrats being responsible for all his mishaps is beyond belief!

 It is truly time for Hillary Clinton to speak out and remind him that she might have not won the Electoral Vote, but she won the Mandate, the Popular Vote, not by his so-called, Voter Fraud, but by millions of voters like myself, who are extremely worried about our future and Democracy.

I hope that the news media keeps up the good work and reveals all the information necessary to either clear the Trump Candidacy of Collusion with Russia or find out that there really were close ties and communication with people within his Campaign, including Trump himself. After all, he hid the truth from Vice President Pence to try and cover up a lie that General Flynn claimed, saying that he had no communication with Russia during the Campaign, when, in fact, he did.

You can follow me on my blog,
TheWomanCard.Info  ...  here I wrote so much about the negatives of the Trump Campaign and the feelings I have now living in this "Unreal Reality Show"!
It's time to speak out!!
