President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Worth a read.



So's this.

 

OK, this is funny ...

 

Too busy co-writing a book with ex-Sen. Jeff Flake: "Things We Wanted To Do."

 

All these former cabinet members need to put up or shut up. If they don't speak up, they are now officially complicit.

 

I think it's coming. We always think of New York or Los Angeles as targets, but flyover country could very well be in their crosshairs. Ecology of Fear by Mike Davis addresses that mindset.

 

Thye might hit a mall. Maybe. People just aren't going to malls the way they used to. I could see them going after a political rally or a sporting event. The social media people at Bridgestone Arena tweeted the pattern of people getting wanded as a way of reassuring fans one season. I hope they've switched it up since then.

Bass is sufficiently detached from the rest of Shopryland that you'd be out of harm's way. Go. The people-watching is worth the trip and even though their archery selection is thin IMO, it's still fun to look at the gadgets someone thought up to, er, "simplify" getting outdoors.

 

Bush (well kinda) and Obama tried to emphasize that any war we were making was not a war against Islam in order to not have a billion people pissed off at us.

Trump’s tantrum over cultural sites is going to accomplish that.

 

The terrorist patsies needed for such an operation have the same idea of American geography as the average American has of Middle Eastern geography. They know New York, LA, DC and maybe Florida and that's it. Besides, the first three places are where the cameras are.
