That's 4 top Pentagon officials in the last, what, 2 1/2 weeks?

Mmhmm.. completely normally functioning WH Administration & country here, folks.. nothing to see nor be alarmed about. (Or maybe, just maybe, trump is an incompetent fraud and America is in real danger with him at the controls.)

the political bulk of amuuurricans are like that hapless dog who, from the window of his master's car as it goes down the road, he shouts at his buddy on the sidewalk, "hey! my master is taking me to the vet's to get tutored."

:lol:

On a related note, it is downright BIZARRE to watch some Americans ignore things like facts & objective reality as they support this man and his crazy. Like they flat out ignore his daily lies and throw their support behind his ridiculous pet project - and for what? For what gain? It appears the only real thing they support is racial divide. But that's just from my outside observer perspective. I could be incorrect and they Actually Believe the things he says.. and if so, it begs the question: Why? Seriously. It's completely incomprehensible.

it is more than bizarre, it is depressing and scary. it is mainly people who "got theirs] who support this regime, as punishment for the rest of us whom they deem unworthy not only of citizenship but even living. this is how things like civil wars and ethnic/class cleansing and pogroms start.

I think that's what you're worried about & they're hoping for tbh. That seems to be the general vibe. I spent a bit of time reading some right wing news articles over the past couple of weeks.. Some of the articles actually contain likely factual information that isn't in the MSM, or at least it seems plausible, at least. But it's the comments section that's truly revealing... the things some of the posters have to say are pretty awful. They're basically rooting for your worst nightmare. Although, I did consider that some of the comments may in fact be Fake News intended to stoke fear & sell survival supplies etc.

Ikr?

Considering this is the final season of America, I expected more of that border crisis address episode tbh. It kind of fell flat with the same ol' boring lies over and over. Hopefully they can get it together for whatever spectacle they create next!

I am reminded of howard beale, at the end of "Network," being gunned down for having declining ratings. when amuuurica's ratings go down, something will happen to us. :o
