Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 29 May 23 - 09:09 PM edit 1 THE WRECK OF THE DONALD TRUMP BIG LIE The legend lives on from Wikipedia on down Of the big lie they called Donald's last stand The race, it is said, never gives up her dead When the skies of November turn gloomy With a load of Bull Shit twenty-six thousand tons more The real Donald Trump campaign spent millions That good ship Trump truth was a bone to be chewed When campaigns of November came early The ship was the pride of the American side Coming back from some rally in Wisconsin As the big liars go, HE was bigger than most With a crew and good Donald well seasoned Concluding some terms with a couple of firms When they left fully loaded for Victory And later that night when votes were counted Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'? The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound And a wave broke over his railing And every man knew, as the Donald did too T'was the witch of November come stealin' The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait When campaigns of November came slashin' When afternoon came votes felt like freezin' rain In the face of a hurricane west wind When suppertime came, the old cook came in sayin' "Fellas, it's too late to feed ya" At seven PM, the election caved in, he said "Fellas, it's been good to know ya" Then Rudy phoned in he had bad news comin' in And the campaign and crew was in peril And later that night when his lights went outta sight Came the wreck of the Donald J Trump run Does any one know where the love of God goes When the truth turns the minutes to hours? The broadcaster all say if he had more votes that day If they'd put fifteen more States behind him They might have split up but some of them have capsized Some have broke deep and went to jail And all that remains is the faces and the names Of the con men, grifters, and pillows Internet trolls and television bull now Fill the rooms of his golf resort mansions His bull shit steams like a narcissist's dreams The laws and courts review his criminal schemes And farther below Mason Dixon Teach what Ron's history sends her And candidates go as the politicos know With campaigns of November remembered In a musty old hall in old Queens they prayed In the CRIMINAL MUSEUM' cathedral The church bell chimed 'til it rang FORTY FIVE times And for each man on the Donald Trump team The legend lives on from Manhatten on down Of the big lie they called lets play dirty America, they said, never gives up her dead When campaigns of November come early |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 29 May 23 - 07:36 PM By the way, an elephant trainer in Ontario had his Tilley hat snatched from him and eaten by elephants three times. It was still wearable. As it happens, I've had a Tilley hat for 22 years. I'm trying to work out whether I can get it down in one as I'd still like to wear it afterwards. There wouldn't be any other takers. This looks a bit off-topic, though let's remember that elephants make TRUMPeting noises... |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 29 May 23 - 07:28 PM I'd far sooner eat a hat than see Trump back in power. I call that GOOD taste. All I ask is that I get to choose the material. Last time I ate a felt hat I bloody near choked... |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 29 May 23 - 06:37 PM Yeah. If I had to eat a hat I would enjoy cake. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 29 May 23 - 02:19 PM Like Ron, I. Claudius said "let all the evil in the mud hatch out" Believe me Florida is muddy. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 29 May 23 - 02:09 PM Stilly is right BUT he is not indicted or convicted of sedition. I hope Steve's hat is made of cake. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 29 May 23 - 12:42 PM He is the king of delay tactics, and has earned the name Teflon Don for a reason. But his luck has run out. Who knows, maybe the GOP in Texas tossing out their Attorney General will give the national party some ideas. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Lighter Date: 29 May 23 - 12:07 PM Of course Trump can run for President from a jail cell. It's been done before. And if he wins, he's President. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/04/06/trump-running-for-president-prison-00090931 But at the rate the process is going, he may not even stand trial on federal charges before November, 2024. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: MaJoC the Filk Date: 29 May 23 - 10:00 AM > We'll settle for Ron then. *NOOOOO* .... He reminds me of the I CLAVDIVS scene where Claudius's two advisers are discussing potential brides for Claudius. One suggests Agrippinilla, and the other retorts: "It'll be like the Lady Messalina all over again --- worse, the Lady Messalina with brains." |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 29 May 23 - 09:01 AM We'll settle for Ron then. Sheesh, and we thought that Boris was bad enough... |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 28 May 23 - 09:16 PM There are several charges that if he is convicted will prohibit him from running. Sedition is one. If he is found guilty of sharing those classified documents at Mar-a-lago (have they checked the phones of frequent guests? I'd bet they snapped a few pix) he's toast as far as the espionage act. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Steve Shaw Date: 28 May 23 - 08:32 PM Slow-moving is exactly right. The democratic part of the world outside the US has watched with dismay how the yanks have allowed someone who is clearly criminal to weave his way through what you laughingly call your justice system into a position of being a realistic presidential candidate (let alone a rock-solid cert to win if and when he becomes that candidate). If he wins, that's the end of democracy, and America has sleepwalked its way into this position. You have powerful vested right-wing interests and you have frightened politicians who are allowing this to happen. I said on this forum many years ago that your politics is infantile. We are now reaping the whirlwind of that. Meet Trump, your next president. Or I'll eat my bloody hat. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 07:17 PM Even after writing eleven books and winning several awards, Maya Angelou couldn't escape the self-doubt that she hadn't earned her accomplishments. This feeling of fraudulence is extremely common. Why can't so many of us shake feelings that our ideas and skills aren't worthy of others. “I feel compelled to think of myself as an involuntary swindler.” - Albert Einstein in 1955, shortly before his death. Impostor Syndrome is a psychological ...You can check Tom Hanks yourself. The gears of justice grind slowly but a grand pause after the capitol invasion I BELIEVE WAS NEEDED. Appeasing the Confederates lasted 150 years. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Helen Date: 28 May 23 - 06:50 PM SRS, another slow-moving (in my opinion) game with lots of players that I can think of is Monopoly, which is kinda relevant because that's what Trump tries to achieve in everything he does. Coincidentally, this week I saw a UK TV quiz show host state that his family used to bend the rules of Monopoly so that each game would go on for days. Bending the rules is also one of Trump's key features. And the aim of Monopoly is to monopolise all the money and resources to gain the most power over other people in the game. |

|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 28 May 23 - 05:50 PM It's like watching a slow-moving chess game, which government prosecutor, county, state, or federal, is going to take a shot at Trump next, and ultimately, which one is going to disqualify him from holding public office. (The analogy is a chess game but it has more than two players, unless someone can name some other slow-moving game with lots of players.) |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Manitas_at_home Date: 28 May 23 - 01:18 PM It's hare-brained. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 08:20 AM Trump thinks he grows taller by cutting the head off others. Like a monopoly he thinks "I don't care because I don't have to". Well, it looks like he will be learning to care. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 08:01 AM I should mention that keb also is free of self doubt caused by abuse. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 07:55 AM Having some self-doubt keeps you humble, keeps you working and keeps you learning. I see Helen on the cusp of learning to fly free of unnecessary self-doubt. Stilly has been liberated for years and the trolls can only peck at people who actually have important ideas. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 07:36 AM Overcome self-doubt and the path to truth is wide and long. The feeling of being a fraud or an accidental swindler, as Einstien put it, will go away and free high-achieving people. Maya Angelou and Tom Hanks both suffered from self doubt that they would be found out. Just having an imposter syndrome is an indication that you have achieved excellence. Thats when you can overcome self-doubt and be free. That freedom leaves you impervious to the envious manipulators. The paradox is that unworthy people like Trump also are free of self doubt and cause harm. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 28 May 23 - 07:09 AM The quote was in quotes and is firmly in the public domain, but some missed the point anyway. Even Bible quotes are rarely sourced and footnoted in conversation. Hair-brained condemnation as constant as the wind is because the troll would be embarrassed to admit why they hate. The truth would be humiliating to the troll. So let's not speak of it. The aim is to educate, not humiliate. One reason why Trump was successful in his duping is that most intelligent people have self-doubt and over time it develops into an imposter syndrome that leaves them open to the big lies of the Troll. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Helen Date: 27 May 23 - 03:32 PM Donuel, re your statement: Strange enough many Latin American men voted for the Donald I thought it was very strange that African-Americans were supporting him as well, back in his 2016 campaign. I'm not sure whether they would still be supporting him now. |

Subject: RE: BS: Trump INDICTED (NO new Trmp threads) 2 From: Donuel Date: 26 May 23 - 10:11 AM DuhSantis strikes me as a bullied wanna-be bully that would accept Trump's Vice Presidency. Moral decrepitude knows no bounds. |

The Florida legislature included the menstrual cycle as a form of abortion in the killing of an unfertilized egg via tampons. Dr. Bubba Wilcox testified Thursday on the killing of unfertilized eggs and the legislature amended their 6 week abortion ban... |

Conservatism is now about hate, grievance, and criminal acts even in the religious right. Donations water their money tree, free for the taking. Grifting con man scams are business as usual No lie to take free money is too big. The first time I mentioned the Oath Keepers was 5 years ago in a group of troubling militias. Today their leader Elmer Rhodes was sentenced to 18 years in Federal Prison. |
