Trump's plan to give Putin YOUR voter data!

Here's my theory of the REAL reason Trump wants the voter data:

It's becoming increasingly clear that #PresidentTweety owes "HIS" new house to (1) Fake News attacks on Hillary Clinton and (2) Putin's hackers who propagated the FAKE news.

A lot of this was micro-targeting, which will be GREATLY improved in 2018 after Trump gives Putin all of the voter data. The Donald is such a nasty child that he was probably planning to pay Putin back personally by handing him the data at their coming meeting.

Or maybe it isn't the nastiness. Maybe it's the fear because Putin has already started leaning on him? Should we hope Putin busts a kneecap for being late with the payment?

Trump is now CLEARLY impeachable for attacking the First Amendment of the Constitution. It's right there in the presidential oath. I'm certain that blackmail against the First is clearly a "high crime".

In theory, the so-called Republican Party could help save the country, but they lost their souls long ago. They sold them for cheap political victories, and along the way they destroyed America and made it possible for such TERRIBLE and incompetent leaders as Dubya and Trump to occupy the White House.

How? They had to destroy a lot of critical thinking to do it, but that's exactly what they did to America's public schools, beginning back in the Reagan years. Divide and conquer is great, like Julius Caesar said. Split the public schools into a FEW good ones and a LOT of terrible obedience schools you wouldn't send your dog to.

We wound up with a country where NASA has to deny building a secret Martian space colony of enslaved children, because there are now some voters who are ready to believe that FAKE news. We are so phucked.

Trump stinks to the level of bags of cash on Agnew's desk



Didn't think #PresidentTweety could get there, but blackmailing journalists HAS to be against the First Amendment. Anyone remember Spiro T Agnew? Just barely, right? He went quietly when he phucked up big enough, and I think Trump has finally passed Agnew on the way down.

I'd include the original link to the Washington Post article, but it's paywalled, so that's just a video version. It's not so strong, and after I saw it I didn't realize the full implications, but think about it for a few minutes. There are MULTIPLE witnesses. Joe is able to name names, but I hope he doesn't name them in public. Leave them wondering who is going to sing first.

Trump is impeachable. NOW. As in RIGHT NOW.

About shanen

Feeling kind of old these days, but still reading lots of books. These days it seems like you have to divide books into BT and PU, as in Before Trump and Post Unimaginable. Interesting BT example this week: A 2012 book called "Super Mario" about Nintendo, but on page 154 the author makes a joke about "odder than Bowser's Donald Trump ambitions." I'm sure it seemed funny at the time, but I'm not laughing much in these PU days. And no, I don't play computer games these years and I've never owned a Nintendo nor even played any of the Mario games, but it just shows how thoroughly #Brokeahontas had invaded our entire society that he appeared in so many books even when he was just a punchline that no one could take seriously.
