THIS IS HAPPENING RIGHT HERE IN OUR OWN COUNTRY!Â

Â
We Must Organize to Stop This Immediately!Â

Have you noticed that stairs are gettingÂ steeper?Â Â Groceries areÂ heavier.Â And, everything isÂ fartherÂ away.Â Yesterday I walked to the corner and I was dumbfounded to discover howÂ longÂ Â Â Â our street had become!Â
And, you know, people are less considerate now–especially the young ones.Â They speak inÂ whispersÂ all the time! If you ask them to speak up, they just keep repeating themselves, endlessly mouthing the sameÂ silent messageÂ until they’re red in the face!Â What do they think I am–a lip reader?Â
I also think they are much younger than I was at the same age…Â On the other hand, people my own age are so muchÂ olderÂ than I am.Â I ran into an old friend the other day and she has aged so much that sheÂ didn’t even recognizeÂ me.Â
I got to thinking about the poor dear while I was combing my hair this morning, and in doing so, I glanced at my own reflectionÂ Well, REALLY, NOW–Â even mirrorsÂ are not made the way they used to be!Â
Another thing, everyone drives soÂ fastÂ these days!Â You’re risking life and limb if you happen to pull onto the highway in front of them.Â All I can say is, their brakes must wear out awfully fast, judging from the way I see themÂ screech and swerveÂ in my rear-view mirror…Â
Clothing manufacturers areÂ less civilizedthese days.Â Why else would they suddenly start labeling a size 10 or 12 dress as 18 or 20?Â Do they think no oneÂ notices? The people who makeÂ Â Â bathroom scalesÂ are pulling the same prank.Â Do they think I actuallyÂ believeÂ the number I see on that dial??Â HA!Â I wouldÂ neverÂ let myself weigh that much!Â Just who do these people think they’re fooling?Â
I’d like to call up someone in authority to report what’s going on–but theÂ telephone companyÂ is in on the conspiracy too: they’ve printed the phone books in suchÂ smallÂ Â type that no one could ever find a number in there!All I can do is pass along this warning:
WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!Â

Unless something drastic happens, pretty soon everyone will have to suffer these awful indignities.Â

Dumb Trump Civil War Stupidity

John on May 2nd, 2017

From:Â www.motherjones.com/politics/2017/05/historian-donald-trumps-civil-war-comment-god-help-us

President Abraham Lincoln and Gen. George McClellan Alexander Gardner/Wikimedia Commons

President Donald Trump said in an interview on SiriusXM’s “Main Street Meets the Beltway” show Monday that if Andrew Jackson had been president in 1860, the Civil War would have been averted.Â “Had Andrew Jackson been a little later, you wouldn’t have had the Civil War,” he stated, and he asked, “Why could that one not have been worked out?”

I asked David Blight, a Yale University historian whose work has focused on slavery, the Civil War, and Reconstruction, what he thought of Trump’s remarks. Here’s his response:

“Worked out?”Â God!…

Well, I just read these postings?Â So he really said this about Jackson and the Civil War? All I can say to you is that from day one I have believed that Donald Trump’s greatest threat to our society and to our democracy is not necessarily his authoritarianism, but his essential ignoranceâ€”of history, of policy, of political process, of the Constitution. Saying that if Jackson had been around we might not have had the Civil War is like saying that one strong, aggressive leader can shape, prevent, move history however he wishes. This is simply 5th grade understanding of history or worse.Â And this comes from the President of the United States! Under normal circumstances if a real estate tycoon weighed in on the nature of American history from such ignorance and twisted understanding we would simply ignore or laugh at him. But since this man lives in the historic White House and wields the constitutional powers of the presidency and the commander in chief we have to pay attention. Trump’s “learning” of American history must have stopped even before the 5th grade.Â I wish I could say this is funny and not deeply disturbing. My profession should petition the President to take a one or two month leave of absence, VP Pence steps in for that interim, and Trump goes on a retreat in one of his resorts for forced re-education. It could be a new tradition called the presidential education leave. Or perhaps in New Deal tradition, an “ignorance relief” period.Â This alone might gain the United States again some confidence and respect around the world.

Hope this helps.Â God help us.

Are some Americans really that dumb? Can’t they see that the Richer are getting richer far faster than any other time in American history??? Who would support a President that can’t more than 10 words together?Â Trump is really dumb, really, really dumb!
