No Covid news today, but I have a suggestion:
To prevent the next presidential debate (if there is one) from becoming a mudbath like last night’s, President Trump should be fitted with a shock collar, similar to the kind used to train and discipline dogs. A shock collar, for those unfamiliar with the device, consists of a sturdy plastic strap around a dog’s neck, a receiver unit attached to the strap, and a remote-control device with buttons to adjust the severity of shock. At the lowest level is a tone, which alerts the dog that it’s doing something wrong; if it persists, the trainer transmits an electrical impulse to the receiver via the remote, which in turn transmits it to the dog’s neck, in degrees of strength from 1( mild discomfort) to 5 (very painful). With the shock collar fastened to Trump and the remote in the debate moderator’s hand, something resembling civility can be ensured. The first time Trump interrupts Biden, he gets the tone; the next time, bypassing all grades in between, the moderator zaps him with the max, a 5. He’ll not forget it, believe me. I see no other way to train this man to play by the rules and behave like a rational human being.
I was thinking a boat air horn because I didn’t know cruelty was allowed. I like your reach.
I just finished “The Longest Road”. Last year I went from Patagonia where I winter to Alaska in my motor home with a similar quest for the best cinnamon roll. Far and away it was in Atlin BC!
Excellent idea.
Tuesday night was a national embarrassment but we often seem to lean in that direction.
We go around the world preaching democracy yet twice in the past quarter century we have slapped democracy in the face by giving the most important job in the world to the loser in our ‘democratic’ election.
Why do we allow an antiquated electoral process – originally designed to strengthen the power of southern slave holders – to decide the results of our most important election. If the Electoral College is such an equitable way of deciding a question, why is it only used once every four years?
Trumps mind a rolling tinkling chittering softness of brain parts expanding and contracting in quivering frenzy
Trump sucks donkey dicks
Assolini out did himself this time…He made The BOYS PROUD…
Sounds like something he’d do to you or any other journalist he could. They killed a journalist yesterday in Honduras. “Who,” they ask, “would like to criticize us now?” There are plenty out there already who would kill those who would criticize him.
I say let him and those who watch him continue with their entertainments. It keeps them off the streets. And who’d have thought a guy who cheated in college and on the draft and all his wives and all his contractors and all his students and givers to his charities would cheat on his taxes. What a stretch!
Interesting, I have volunteered at Hines Vets hospital.
I look at results and not hate speech.
War and Peace
I was thinking about Trump and the military and international moves.
He recognized Jerusalem as capital and obtained peace deals with UAE and Bahrain. Both Obama and Kerry said these would cause war.instead it put Palestine in a position where they look ridiculous for not dealing with Israel, never trying to build up their economy especially after settlements were stopped.
He made NATO put up their fair share and take more responsibilities.
He kept Syrian Christians from being exterminated, with selective bombing.
He has tried to be strong on internal Antifa and radical BLM nihilistic terrorists who want to destroy America. Weak governors and mayors
Stifled this rational response.
He did trade deals with Canada and Mexico that Biden said were better.
He demanded China stop stealing our patents, made trade deal and has punished those stealing secrets and arrested internal Chinese spies.
He tried and failed with North Korea but…the people now know there is a great world outside called South Korea and that will matter.
He extricated us from Afghan Bush a Obama debacle under which 70% of US deaths were under Obama surge withdrawal – strategy.
He’s made it clear to Germany and Japan that they must do more and he swill start to withdraw troops.
He did really rebuild military.
He has let UN know One World Order is not an option.
He stood up to Cuba, a still ruthless socialist state after embassy people got sick and Cuba signed spying deal with Russia.
He withdrew all aid and support to a Venezuelan dictatorship.
He walked away from phony Climate deal that put burden all on us and not China or India.
He stepped away from incoherent Iran deal, who, flushed with cash from a Obama spread its evil throughout Middle East, and kept its atomic program going surreptitiously. Deal was farce now exposed.
I did not vote for him.
I will
