The Roar of the Crowd
Trump is nothing more than a lounge act on the campaign trail performing for losers and failures looking for scapegoats to blame for their shortcomings in life.
His cult following, ex-reporter
Sam Donaldson said, would follow him to hell. Most are gleefully ignorant and very terrified that they are losing social, political, and economic power to minorities.
They embrace Trump because he scratches their itchy ears, and he is like the teenaged girl who retreats to a bowl of ice cream and bag of cookies after a nasty break up with a boyfriend.
There is comfort in mouthfuls of food and TV surfing with a remote. There is comfort in applause and cheers from people with itchy ears who come to watch the Trump Show among a sea of red “Make America Great, Again” caps.
Trump doesn’t want to become “presidential” because this means “boring” people.
“And everybody would be out of here so fast! You wouldn’t come in in the first place!” Trump said.
Well, sane Americans, who blush as they peer above their glasses and watch, still cringe and feel ashamed of what has become to the most powerful office on the planet.
Trump has become the unpolished/rambling version of comedian Rodney Dangerfield but is as dangerous as Jim Jones spewing lies, false promises, and putting innocent lives in danger.
Just a little “tough love” is how he sees the slaughter of America’s allies, the Kurds, by the Turks. The Kurds sacrificed 11,000 lives fighting with America against ISIS.
“The crowd loved it, roaring with laughter” — NYT
“How did Rudy get here?” — The Headline on NYT Story.
Simply put, greed, being power-hungry and believing that he and others like him are above the law is what led to the moral implosion of Rudy Giuliani.
The NYT put together a cast for “The Weekly” story to analyze Rudy: Why he decided to turn into a lying, buffoon. One who would go inside a telephone booth to do a TV interview.
Seriously, it’s not that complicated. Rudy isn’t an enigmatic Egyptian puzzle that by deciphering the hieroglyphics it will reveal profound secrets inside a man’s soul.
The trail of bread crumbs of self-inflicted stupidity is evident with Rudy and friends.
This week, on the trail a loaf-of-bread with a neon sign under it pointed the way: Two of Rudy’s close “associates” Igor and Lev, the Russian versions of Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, were caught trying to leave the country in a big hurry and were arrested at the airport
They were heading for Vienna, and lo and behold, Rudy also had an airline ticket to go to Vienna the next day.
Rudy is a full-fledged member of Trump’s cast and crew who are reading the same manuscript and looking at identical White House blueprints, political sabotage.
And, when they are caught with their collective hands in various cookie jars, they slap on the phony looks of incredulity and say: “Oh, my God, how did my hand get in there? I know nothing about it. Ask my brain. Let’s wait until the facts come out.”
It insults the intelligence of people who don’t watch Fox “News” or are Trump U. grads.
WHISTLEBLOWERS/AMERICAN PATRIOTS
Trump is trying to hijack American elections and deprive voters’ the right to decide whose name appears on the ballot box.
Trump wants to sabotage democracy using smear tactics and lies against his political opponent, Joe Biden.
Third World tactics used by despots.
What stood in the way of him doing this is bulldog journalism from newspapers like the New York Times and Washington Post and of course, American patriots, aka whistleblowers.
What is dangerous are political stooges who can’t see beyond their next election like Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson and continue to vouch for the lying con man with 12,000 plus lies under his belt since swearing to uphold the U.S. Constitution.
Johnson said on Meet the Press that he is satisfied with the president on the Ukrainian topic because Trump “completely denied it.
He adamantly denied it.
He vehemently, angrily denied it. He said, ‘I’d never do that.’”
Trump also said he believed Putin who denied election interference rather than 17 U.S. intelligence agencies:
Air Force Intelligence, Army Intelligence, Central Intelligence Agency, Coast Guard Intelligence, Defense Intelligence Agency, Energy Department, Homeland Security Department, State Department, Treasury Department, Drug Enforcement Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Marine Corps Intelligence, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, National Reconnaissance Office, National Security Agency, Navy Intelligence and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
WASHINGTON POST Headline: Trump involved Pence in efforts to pressure Ukraine’s leader, though aides say vice president was unaware of pursuit of dirt on Bidens

It should be no surprise that Trump’s poodle tucks his tail and runs to fetch the ball when his handler orders him to do so.
In the Ukrainian caper, Trump dragged Pence into his scheme to dirty up the Bidens and did so by dirting up Pence.
Pence was political props to legitimize Trump’s weapons-for-dirt extortion. The Ukrainians, desperate to get tank busters from the U.S. to stop the Russians who have invaded the country.
Trump simply wanted to tell his cult following at his political rally that his source told him that the Bidens are under investigation in Ukraine.
This and daring the media to write about it would draw cheers and applause from Trump’s drones of “Lock them Up! Lock them Up!…”
Trump would gloat, and Fox News would ramp up the propaganda against the Bidens.
Nothing would come from this phony probe. Trump just wanted to score big political points on a political opponent that polls indicate would mop the floor with him.
His lapdog was more than willing to please his owner. The man with the quizzical look can always be found standing behind Trump patiently waiting for instructions from Donald.
Remember that in 2017, Pence followed Trump’s order and walked out of 49ers-Colts after players kneel in protest of police brutality.
The well-choreographed political stunt was to boost Trump’s standing with his drones and the Republican Congress.
In the statement issued by the White House, Pence said: “I left today’s Colts game because President Trump and I will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our Flag, or our National Anthem.”
No, you left, Mike, because Donald ordered you to do so.
Please, stop insulting the intelligence of the American people.
