DISPATCHES

This is the message that conservatives should be sending to President Trump..."Mr. President....today it is reported that Secretary of State Pompeo cancelled a trip to Germany because of 'more pressing' issues. (It turned out to be Iran) We need the full attention of our president on the numerous 'pressing issues' facing the security of the United States in the immediate future. We need you to take yourself out of consideration for a second term in order to concentrate on these 'pressing issues'....without the extraordinary hindrance of campaigning for a second term. We need to know that our president is not tempted into making important decisions based on how they might affect a reelection  campaign. Retire gracefully Mr. President as the 45th President of the United States....an extraordinary accomplishment. Please do not subject us to the proceedings....congressional proceedings...investigative reports....and if necessary a primary challenge....any or all of which you very well might not win. Mr. President....this is not about you."

So it is Executive Privilege on the Mueller Report.....it sounds like a song....'No Shoes....No Shirt....No Documents....No Witnesses....No Problem." It is appearing more and more like a king is refusing to give the parliament any information. What's next.....he sends his dragoons to effectively disband the parliament? The president may be hoping to push the Democrats to impeach now before they are able to get the necessary evidence.

"Wray breaks with Barr"..."Starr vs Mueller"...conservative vs conservative...if you are not for Trump you are now considered an enemy of the people. In whatever area of life Donald Trump has endeavored....politics....real estate magnate....entertainments.....Mar-a-Lago....he has brought not only division but revulsion. He breeds on it....he loves it. When he has gone bankrupt on occasion....many others suffered....but he could care less! He has absolutely no compassion. He is the greatest fake of them all! Christian brothers and sisters....this is your hero.

If some in the White House do not stand up to President Trump he will eventually commit impeachable offenses....and some of those government officials may wind up behind bars. I lived through Watergate folks...this is how it happened!

I watched a clip of Chris Wallace interviewing Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. As I mention often in these posts....I'm not a cable news person.....this was probably the first time I saw Chris Wallace in a few years. He zeroed in on statements that President Trump made......that seemed to be the opposite of State Department comments....and of the facts. In each case Secretary of State Pompeo evaded that issue and answered on the subject matter itself. I found myself hoping that Chris Wallace would ask a question this way......"Mr. Secretary.....is there no one in the White House who can tell President Trump....."Mr. President.....they are on to you....they know that you cannot give an interview without straying from facts.....this simply has to stop!"? This has been President Trump's history.....and my description here was mild compared to what the President actually does.....and it has been gut-wrenching to see this for two years.....and the President's supporters want us to OK a total of six more years of this! They simply don't care who this man is. It doesn't bother them in the slightest. Their swamp is every bit as noxious as the one that the establishment lives in. Four years only folks....if we can get there.

One report this morning had Vice President Pence making public comments in hopes of encouraging the Fed to lower interest rates to stimulate the economy. Trump wants an uptick in the economy for political benefit in 2020. The man knows nothing about global economies. Economists are stymied on why the economic stats came in so good. There is an element of the unknown here that should cause concern. Meanwhile President Trump tells us until we throw up how wonderful this 'greatest economy ever' is.....so why....so why....so why take us to the brink of war....as if our people are economically suffering where there is no other choice?  The answer is that it is all about Donald Trump....not the American people....and it is about greed. One makes risky moves like this when one has no other choice? Why push China to the brink....where the communists will take drastic measures if they have to?

Is this war talk on Venezuela compassion?  In no way does this have anything to do with compassion. Everything is politics.....everything is Donald Trump....everything is profits!  This from page 136 of Andrew McCabe's book The Threat, How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump...."Then the president talked about Venezuela. That's the country we should be going to war with, he said. They have all that oil and they're right on our back door." McCabe's anecdote needs investigated....and if true....the President's words need investigated. We need a conservative challenger in the primaries folks. 

I want to reiterate something here from a few past posts: Previous to election day 2016 conservatives really knew very little about Donald Trump other than what appeared in tabloids or how he appeared on his television show. He wasn't even inaugurated yet when he brought two hard core progressives right smack dab into the middle of the Oval Office....this being Ivanka and Jared....we should have thrown down the gauntlet when he did this.....shortly after being inaugurated he tried to pull a fast one on us with the fake Obamacare repeal and replace bill....he then inexplicably went out of his way to support a swamp creature in Luther Strange. It was around this time that I determined to find something out about who this Donald Trump really was. Today....over thirty books later....I now know who he is. He has a vacant mind.....with no intellectual clutter to get in the way of his only true love.....himself....and he has been this way for just about all of his life. Extreme narcissism....lying....and obsessive and gleeful revenge....are his most telling personal characteristics....but conservatives defend him to the hilt because they refuse to accept that they had been so mislead.

The conservative movement is absolutely dead....shot down by President Trump....and stomped to death by Rush and the rest of those who have put on saffron robes while chanting "hare Trump...hare Trump...hare Trump." I'm listening to formerly conservative talk radio as I type and Jared Kushner is now being acclaimed as someone pretty good.....that's how bad it is folks.

Evangelicalism is dying quickly.....millions watching on television.....and tens of thousands filling churches and arenas to hear very bad representatives of the Christian faith. Our local pulpits have failed us miserably.....falling long ago for a modern easy-believism.....ashamed of the gospel....and ashamed of God's warnings to a rebellious America. We blame our educational system for what we see in the news every day....I blame our educational system.....but we created that system. Brothers and sisters....we are looking at the handiwork of the modern Christian church.....yet we pat ourselves on the back every week....and set the bar so low that you could step over it.

I look at Jared Kushner's blank stare and I see....well I'm not going to tell you what I see.....but his Middle East Peace plan is scheduled to be revealed shortly.....and as I have said before.....it is not in the details......for anyone can promise the world to both sides.....it's in the character of the one making those promises.....that is where we are in trouble.

Has anyone even taken the time to speculate where the economy would be today had any of the conservative 2016 Republican candidates won the nomination and the general election? The same regulations would have been eliminated.....the corporate tax rates would have been lowered....Obama's socialist trend would have ended....in short it would also have been very positive. We conservatives and Tea Party people worked for these principles for a long time while Donald Trump was busy getting celebrity make-up applied for television. Yet they tell us that President Trump is a miracle worker....that we simply must nominate him again? Candidate Trump campaigned on dropping the national debt $6 trillion during his...eight....years....but it's estimated that if he serves eight years the debt will increase at least by $9 trillion.

Folks....if you are wondering where I'm coming from....or who on the conservative side would have the audacity to oppose a second Trump term....we are out here....but conservative talk radio....(formerly 'conservative' talk radio)....has control of this whole show right now....and in listening to their shows....it's as if we don't even exist. As soon as a crack in that levy appears Donald Trump will be seen for who he really is....but this is 'Trumpism' now.....chaotic....risk taking....deceptive....hypocritical....and all for the thrill of power and nauseating greed.
