Well Joe I would concur with Janie. Everything in reality is reactive and interactive. I would think in terms of the best laid plans of mice and men...
Every journey begins with a first step.

Overcoming a Banks gone wild economic crash in 8 years instead of 16 was a great accomplishment. Yes a CCC would also have had benefits.

The central power of any election is the power and manipulation of emotion. I have said this 437 times. Getting that power to serve plans is secondary.

Frankly this is a Hillary weakness so far.
The feelings inspired by Trump lies is a strength no matter how despicable that is to all of us.

All my adult life I have implored people to see how susceptible the human spirit is to hypnosis, the great lie and the deceptions of Hitleresque shared hatreds. It may seem that the human bonds we share are super strong but they are more fragile than we care to admit.

Its time to admit it.

Lets see how well we do with only high minded denials of the Trump tools of deception. Oh that's right, we always deny that hypnosis at play in the arena of political power and lies.

If on the other hand we sharpen the tip of the spear and add hooks we could out propaganda the hell out of Trump.

For example in response to the proposed high crimes and misdemeanors that Trump has only suggested so far, we repeat clearly the legal response to such criminal acts until the name Trump is equated with the criminal punishments awaiting him. Just as they did to Hillary.
Forget the Logan act, Trump is a treasonous Watergate co-conspirator.

You don't need to grow a pair anymore, you just need body armor forged with truthful lies of emotion..facts are not enough.
