Right-Wing-Religious

Right-Wing-Religious

It is true that opinions are like assholes. We all have one. And it is also true that we all have some degree of freedom to express our opinions. What trumps both these truthful observations is that all opinions are not equal.

When we read words or listen to words on TV News, a process begins involving our capacity for critical thought and discrimination.  We engage our own critical thought process at the level we have developed cognitive decision making ability, using our self-awareness to determine whether the words we read or hear are:  Factual Truth or Prejudiced Opinion. We discriminate based on the level at which we have learned to process information. 

Behavioral science in areas like psychology, sociology, or social anthropology provides data with which to consider human action and interaction. Both in the moment, as news breaks, as well as through the lens of the past. Historical data, those examples from history providing simple criteria with the benfit of hindsight with which to make generalized projections about human behavior in society.

The study of our historic behaviors reduced, intelligently,  to simple key criteria that once properly applied by way of generalization and discrimination, provides a frequently dependable projection of what will happen next.

Our varying ability to interpret new data within the limitations of our self-awareness, depending on the position we occupy in our respective progress with developed critical-thought, comes down to that binary duality.

Is it Fact or is it Fiction masquerading as Fact.  And how well equipped are we to discriminate on the data reaching us. We may all have the right to express an opinion at various levels of literacy,  but all opinions are not equally right.

How reliable is your opinion?

Bear in mind; we are predisposed by our upbringing, our education,  to believe what already suits our existing opinion. And equally predisposed to reject what does not, depending on the extent of our ability to discriminate between the two possibilities that exist when we hear ‘News.’

That ability to discriminate prudently is determined by our education. Or more significantly, our miseducation. If an education based on science and fact that enables critical-thought is 10 on the scale of 1 to 10,  and religion based superstition and prejudice, a 1. An education based on religious superstition is not an education at all. If it is a right wing education – based on right-wing conformity to  a conservative status quo, then, it is a safe generalization, that the outcome of that education will not score high on the critical thought measure of a complete education. Right-wing religious education is the very opposite of what education is. A safe generalization based on my efforts in learning the history of behaviors in terms of the two choices that any education will impose on a learner. Whether to favor the left or the right.

What are the origins of ‘left’ or ‘right’ as way of thinking, as a behavior.
Lets start there.
The French Revolutionary era was where the terms Left-wing politics and Right-wing politics first originated. The terms referenced the seating of the ancien régime of France at that time. The aristocrats sat on the right, and the commoners sat on the left. The rich and entitled favored politics that would ensure they remained rich and entitled. And the poor, favored politics that would encourage a more equitable distribution of wealth.

Simple enough generalization that works across the historical divide right up until the modern day.
Right wing people want things to stay as they are.
Left wing people want change. Essentially, the goal of left wing thinking is equality.  A level playing field.

It is indoctrination whose purpose is to prepare right-wing-religious conservatives to continue the capitalist model in which one small group are entitled to the labor of the the majority. Education that is preparation for complicity in grand theft. Built on the rock solid foundation of Selfish Greed. Inherent in this arrangement is an adversarial arrangement with the principle of change and equality.

From the beginning of religious right-wing education, the goal has been to continue subjugating the weakest, with the convenient and essential by-product of enabling the top-level in this religion based pyramid to benefit from their free labor.

Metaphorically a good example of success in his Selfish/Greed model of worker theft is the elite Golf Club members.  Historically this would be White men of mostly Aryan nobility who play golf on courses costing more per-round than half the Earths population earn in one year. The opportunity for this free time on the Golf course paid for by the employees of these Aryan-elderly golfers, to keep this model of worker exploitation ticking along nicely.  The cherry on top is the Reagan trickle-down economy at work – where Mexicans get paid peanuts to keep the courses pristine.

This system of elite White Christian conservative right-wing aristocracy entitled to profit from free labor peaked in the 18th Century when the British-Protestants and the Portuguese-Catholics led a booming millionaire-elite-aristocracy in the White religious Countries based on the sale of slaves to the New World. The Slave Trade boom. Where entire cities like Liverpool benefited hugely from the trickle down proceeds of this new economy. The Black Gold. The beauty of this racial add on to the right wing left wing, rich versus poor conflict lay in the benefits to even the poor whites from having a new class, placed below even them.
The behavioral generalization is that although these were left wing people politically, they were happy to accept the advantages the slave trade offered them. Some of them at least. Left wing and liberal do not make easy bedfellows in this consideration. And is one reason why it is safe to generalize once more that the political moniker of left-wing is not necessarily related to liberal.
One is a choice representing ideals worth fighting for.
The other is just bad luck in the gene pool. Some of the nastiest right-wing goons I have met called themselves Left-Wing.

When technology and Empire building wealth status emerged in the Right-wing, Left Wing arrangement European governance,  trading in the Black gold meant instant wealth for the right wing sector, with a tasty little bit of trickle down for the Left. That meant, when the ethical conflict in trading slaves arose, opposition from the Left-Wing was by convenience, mute. Lucky liberal thinkers were by this time impacting on the education of enough people becoming self aware to recognize that slavery was not the Black for White gift God had intended for them.

The slave ship was the means by which nearly 12.5 million enslaved Africans were transported from Africa to the Americas between 1500 and 1866.

Here are the top five beneficiaries of the Slave Trade: (E) Embarked (D) Disembarked. (The numerical difference is the fatality count in transit.)
Their religions are not specifically denominated, although clearly the vast majority were Catholic or Protestant, however it is a given that all the main beneficiaries, from the ship owners to the Islamic herdsmen, to the ships captains, were all Right-Wing-religious.

Portugal / Brazil (E) 5.85 million, (D) 5.10 million Note: Brazil only became independent in 1822, by which time the numbers embarked / disembarked were 4.34 million / 3.82 million

Britain (E) 3.26 million, (D) 2.73 million

France (E) 1.65 million, (D) 1.38 million

Spain / Uruguay (E) 1.06 million, (D) 0.88 million

Netherlands (E) 0.55 million, (D) 0.48 million

Joseph Goebbel’s was the first globally successful Catholic student of behavioral science to master the psychology of presenting opinion-as-fact to a mass audience in a way that resonates like a dog-whistle with the listeners preexisting prejudice. Demonstrating the simplicity in convincing someone to believe you if what you say is presented as something that resonates with their existing prejudice.

Since Hippocrates first contributed to the science of ‘learning and then teaching’, defining areas of personality with which to understand and diagnose medical reaction based on provable fact rather than the prevailing superstitious opinions of the time, we have learned to evaluate social order and the ‘Health’ of any society, in mind, body and social cohesion, by distinct categories; to discriminate by the science of behaviors.

Hippocrates, (born c. 460 bce, island of Kos, Greece. Died c. 375 bce, Larissa, Thessaly) is traditionally regarded as the father of medicine. All medical Doctors swear the Hippocratic Oath,. Basically; First do no Harm.
Hippocrates evolved an original model for categorizing behaviors to interpret for medical treatment. Called – The Four Humors – which were: Blood – Mucus – Black Bile – Yellow Bile.
From that first study, eager minds that followed expanded on Hippocrates first efforts at understanding behaviors by identifying more criteria for generalization. We evolved to “the Four Temperaments”: Sanguine – Phlegm – Cholera – Melancholy
Eduard Spranger a German philosopher, theorized four attitudes towards ethical values: Artistic, religious, theoretic and economic.
The German philosopher Henry C. Link presented a theory of four character styles. He thought behaviors can be linked by being:
Hypomanic, (marked by elation and hyperactivity), depressive, (feelings of hopelessness, despondency, and dejection), hyperesthetic (increase in sensitivity to stimuli of the senses, including; Touch. Sight. Hearing. Smell. Taste and the sense of space), or anesthetic. (Abolishing the sensation of pain.)
Erich Fromm, another German philosopher, wrote that there are four human orientations; Exploitative, hoarding, receptive and marketing.
Carl Jung, categorized mental functioning again into four principle categories: Sensing, intuition, thinking, and feeling.

According to Jung’s suggestion that there are four fundamental ways we deal with the world and our perception of reality: sensing, intuition, thinking, and feeling, we each have a preferred way, usually the way we are most comfortable with and what we learn experientially as our preferred best option.

Jung’s approach put people in categories of good or bad. A limitation that encouraged more thinking by great minds, leading to an increase in our awareness of the key aspect of human development in educational and aspirational terms. And that is the short step across a few thousand years of behavioral study to learn that education is in its essence;

To become self-aware.

To understand that education (the concept properly executed) is a measure of our progress towards self awareness. Towards developing critical thought enabling us to process information independently, arriving at cohesive conclusions that are a product of our own process. Not the parrot repetition of a Blind faith logical inheritor, placed into the unprepared vacuous mind of the dupee, by the malicious duper, who has invited this deceit into their reality because they have been raised and prepared with the ethical tattoo of being right-wing-religious.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs has five categories:

Self Actualization:
Morality, creativity, spontaneity, problem solving, lack of prejudice, acceptance of facts
Esteem:
Self-esteem, confidence, achievement, respect of others, respected by others
Love/Belonging:
Friendship, family, sexual intimacy
Safety:
Security of body, of employment, of resources, of morality, of the family, of health, of property
Physiological:

Meanwhile, in the development of our society away from the ignorance of superstition and ‘Right wing’ persistence with entitlement by birth, in a time before monotheist religion existed, in Classical Greece a spark was lit. Many sparks, that following the remarkable life of Socrates, led to work by Plato, that marked a leapfrog jump for humanity, towards what we think of as civilization.

A process in which he wrote a great many words about concepts that had never existed before he wrote them down and introduced them to a wider audience, who in turn, took those concepts and evolved them into the many social constructs on which we have formed out modern western societies, educated to the standards that began in classical Greece. Short of digressing to a potted history of the enormous debt we owe the original Greek thinkers, I will limit my reference to Plato’s contribution to the parts that most affected me personally. The most well known work is called Plato’s Republic.

I learned early on, as a Greek, that I appeared to know things, just because. While I enjoyed learning stuff at school, much of what I was learning, I knew was more opinion based than fact. This from a ten year old, attending a school system based on a racist Christian model, with obvious prejudices limiting that understanding of Education. It was for me an enormous relief when I first read Plato’s Republic and identified with many elements. Mostly I found comfort in the idea that facts are facts and opinions are opinions. One exists as an opportunity to learn and grow, the other is at best, light relief for entertainment and amusement. His approach of making this distinction has influenced me since I first dabbled with Critical thought, which may have arisen from my first encounter with the idea that the information you have is all already in your DNA. Learning and the acquisition of knowledge is simply a journey of self awareness. Remembering the lessons of past lives in your ancestry.

A few take away’s I remember:

In education, his book 3.
Socrates breaks the educational system into two. They suggest that guardians should be educated in these four virtues:
wisdom, courage, justice and temperance.
The second part of the guardians’ education should be in gymnastics. With physical training they will be able to live without needing frequent medical attention: physical training will help prevent illness and weakness. Socrates asserts that both male and female guardians be given the same education, that all wives and children be shared, and that they be prohibited from owning private property.

Interesting right? Opinions from which we can extrapolate facts.

In Plato’s Republic, book 8. Socrates discusses four unjust constitutions:

Timocracy Socrates defines a timocracy as a government of people who love rule and honor. Socrates argues that the timocracy emerges from aristocracy due to a civil war breaking out among the ruling class and the majority. Over time, many more births will occur to people who lack aristocratic, guardian qualities, slowly drawing the populace away from knowledge, music, poetry and “guardian education”, toward money-making and the acquisition of possessions. This civil war between those who value wisdom and those who value material acquisition will continue until a compromise is reached. The timocracy values war insofar as it satisfies a love of victory and honor. The timocratic man loves physical training, and hunting, and values his abilities in warfare. Oligarchy.
Temptations create a confusion between economic status and honor which is responsible for the emergence of oligarchy. Socrates suggests that wealth will not help a pilot to navigate his ship, as his concerns will be directed centrally toward increasing his wealth by whatever means, rather than seeking out wisdom or honor. The injustice of economic disparity divides the rich and the poor, thus creating an environment for criminals and beggars to emerge. The rich are constantly plotting against the poor and vice versa. The oligarchic constitution is based on property assessment and wealth qualification. Unlike the timocracy, oligarchs are also unable to fight war, since they do not wish to arm the majority for fear of their rising up against them (fearing the majority even more than their enemies), nor do they seem to pay mercenaries, since they are reluctant to spend money.

Democracy
As this socioeconomic divide grows, so do tensions between social classes. From the conflicts arising out of such tensions, the poor majority overthrow the wealthy minority, and democracy replaces the oligarchy preceding it. The poor overthrow the oligarchs and grant liberties and freedoms to citizens, creating a most variegated collection of peoples under a “supermarket” of constitutions. A visually appealing demagogue is soon lifted up to protect the interests of the lower class. However, with too much freedom, no requirements for anyone to rule, and having no interest in assessing the background of their rulers (other than honoring such people because they wish the majority well) the people become easily persuaded by such a demagogue’s appeal to try to satisfy people’s common, base, and unnecessary pleasures.

Tyranny
The excessive freedoms granted to the citizens of a democracy ultimately leads to a tyranny, the furthest regressed type of government. These freedoms divide the people into three socioeconomic classes:
the dominating class,
the elites and
the commoners.
Tensions between the dominating class and the elites cause the commoners to seek out protection of their democratic liberties. They invest all their power in their democratic demagogue, who, in turn, becomes corrupted by the power and becomes a tyrant with a small entourage of his supporters for protection and absolute control of his people.

I liked Socrates assertion that societies have a tripartite class structure corresponding to the appetite/spirit/reason structure of the individual soul. The appetite/spirit/reason are analogous to the castes of society.

Productive (Workers) – the labourers, carpenters, plumbers, masons, merchants, farmers, ranchers, etc. These correspond to the “appetite” part of the soul.
Protective (Warriors or Guardians) – those who are adventurous, strong and brave; in the armed forces. These correspond to the “spirit” part of the soul.
Governing (Rulers or Philosopher Kings) – those who are intelligent, rational, self-controlled, in love with wisdom, well suited to make decisions for the community. These correspond to the “reason” part of the soul and are very few.

In my own lifetime of learning the value of generalizing, between facts and opinion, the societies I have experienced do appear to have three layers. And the balance between these three layers decides the timing between the rise-and-fall of each society.

Throughout this process of learning and growing and knowing, one truth never changes.
Facts are n fact, facts.
And opinions are never more than opinions.
Knowing the difference between the two, or even, the value of having access to critical thought based on a factual matrix, is where the balancing scales sit on that see saw of ethical consideration.

Undue reverence for characters with charismatic opinions (loud, noisy idiots), soon finds a critical mass where facts are ignored in favor of superstition based opinions. And from there it is a rapid slope sliding to a point of no return. The Rubicon moment arrives. Inevitably. As it did for Caesar.

Rupert Murdoch learned his simple formula from behavioral science early on in his career and turned it into a multi-billion dollar fortune. Wielding Goebbels like powers over the electoral process in multiple Countries along the way. Invariably for right-wing candidates.

Motivated by tremendous unprincipled ambitious greed, he built his enormous fortune on that simple principle. You can never overestimate the public stupidity. So what better way to increase your market than to create more idiots.

Murdoch’s multi-billion dollar false news-corp business model soon made him able to decide national elections based entirely on his ability to manipulate the opinions of a majority by owning their source of news. And in this process, providing a steady stream of news that would hamper and then incapacitate the viewers interest and ability to develop critical thought. That’s where the big money is. Tell idiots what they want and make them pay you for it.

A stupefied majority most readily identified by a two-pronged behavioral process. If they are both right-wing and religious, your home free. In the money. They have already signed up for your product. Predictable and conformist. Predictably so for as long as that pesky critical thought doesn’t sneak into their patronage. Dumbness is the key quality for right-wing religious business models to succeed. Super dumb is better.

The work in this dumbed-down version of unaware-compliance has been ongoing for Millennia. Just as one side, liberal thinkers, have pursued knowledge and wisdom through learning and adapting to new ideas, the other side, the right-wing, have resisted change. Conservative values means – lets keep things the way they are. Which was the ideal political position for the Slavery centuries. The golden age of right-wing religious conservatism. When Whites had the right to a free labor force. Which is the most cost effective way of building a Country. With infrastructure and economy and prosperous standards of living for the entitled class. Slavery are Capitalist success go hand in hand. Democracy as a philosophy could not exist without slavery.

Although humanity’s development has followed an exponential curve with advances in technology, the spread of information since the (Capitalist) printing press and then the (Socialist) Internet has enabled wider distribution of knowledge and verifiable scientific fact, providing educational opportunities that previous authoritarian dynasties did not have to contend with, for every young mind that has been sparked by access to good information, the R number in Idiocy, has risen along with the idiot generation of influencers.

A disappointing reflection on humanity, but also a triumph for those motivated behaviorally by selfish greed. Invariably right-wing-religious.

It is easier now to spread false news than ever, thanks to social media, smartphones and cheap broadband. Excepting, its not as false as the name implies. The balance in the trilateral arrangement of our three social layers, in relation to facts and opinions, has enabled an astonishing disregard for facts over opinions. Discarding merit as a currency for leadership, in place of populist rhetoric.

Behind that barrage of mind numbing nonsense, ‘influencers’ with multi million teen-aged followers who can’t read books and may well go though life never having read a single authentic book, you will find a very specific designers hand. The goal of which is to continue the scientifically formulated, deliberate dumbing-down that began soon after the Internet enabled the free dissemination of information. The exact opposite of what Tim Berners Lee had in mind when he gave away for free (Http and the network that became ‘The Internet’) what he could have patented to make himself the worlds first trillionaire.

With this dumbing down, opinions became all the facts this one third needed to be convinced. Miseducation represented more minds than those interested in self awareness, critical thought, and the value of facts.

Years ago, when I became concerned by how readily people would accept false news by Murdoch and his chequebook journalism, I demonstrated its methodology by making up a story and being paid £2,000 by Rupert Murdoch’s Sun Newspaper, whose widely read publication ‘The Sun’ newspaper ran a double-page spread proclaiming the total nonsense I made up to prove my point. 

People will believe whatever nonsense you tell them if its what they want to hear.

I am able to speak from experience when I say, it is that-easy to convince millions of people to believe whatever nonsense you choose to if appears in a Rupert Murdoch publication.  He has that market sewn up. Idiots. who believe anything in the Murdoch formula of news. As long as it resonates on some level with what they want to here. The majority of people are simply that dumbed-down. Even basic awareness of behavioral science prepares anyone wiling to earn money by creating false news for whatever specific purpose might be the paymasters intention. And that sorry fact is no coincidence. Quite how Fox News still gets away with what they do is baffling to me. And alarming.

Although not all people who watch Fox news are idiots, all programming in the Murdoch model is for idiots. Playing on the traditional right-wing prejudices. Well established through years of understanding the mindset of the right-wing-religious conservative. It is a short list of multiple choice questions that will identify any right-wing religious person down to a T. And with this information, it is all to easy for anyone with the intention to manipulate this willing compliance with idiocy to proceed.

At your own pace sir.

To what extent is schooling and education policy controlled by Religion, even to this day?

All things we do – like acting, thinking and feeling – can be regarded as behaviors. Consider that all behaviors are observational whether the actions are publicly displayed or of a private nature, such as thinking and feeling.

The belief in nurture over nature is a second fundamental characteristic of behaviorists. They believe that the mind begins as a blank box, so the environment has a singular influence over one’s behavior.

Humanity has come a long way towards understanding how to categorize people, by nurture and nature, and how to use this information to manipulate people, all the more so when grouped en mass.

We are who we meet, I learned long ago. Which was also my first thought when I saw the reality TV model launch. Big Brother it was called then. As an observation, the viewership started with the dumbest in our midst, who soon became dumber still. I never watched that even once, because I had already heard “The Slime’ by Frank Zappa, but also because, it was transparently the exploitation of the mentally less fortunate. yet look at how successful that model of humiliation became. For the Owners of the programming and for their intentions at election time..

With even a limited education in manipulation of the masses by a wealthy empowered elite it is clear that you need only two elements at your disposal in order to win a popularity-based election when your society has evolved to approximate equality of the three-basic behavioral groups I have identified above.

The Trio of; Right, Left and Indifferent.

If its ‘winning’ an election in these circumstances that your after, key to this arrangement between duper and dupee is religion. It is why every religion only exists and survives by targeting young children. Indoctrinating them with baseless opinions presented as fact before they have the capacity for critical thought. And threatening them with unspeakable horrors before they have the cognitive means to defend themselves against this abusive, malicious deceit.

It is possible to predict the Religion of any individual (Not born in a melting-pot Cosmopolitan center) simply by knowing their birth address. Your going to be the same religion as your parents and their community. For the same reason that abused children go on to become abusers of their own children. (Abused children who came from families where violence was common were more than three times as likely to become abusers as were those who experienced maternal neglect and sexual abuse by females.) Religion as an abuse experienced by any child, is almost always passed on to the abuser’s children.

Once that first arrangement with critical thought is embedded psychologically, tattooed into the developing behavioral thought process patterns with a Christening ceremony, the developing mind will more likely be easy pickings for anyone looking to build onto that foundation of ‘Blind Faith Belief’. The subject will always be predisposed to accept the ‘News’ if it is presented with the same authority that they have been trained to accept.

The three words that exist in perfect duality for any ambitious would-be-Authoritarian thief of hard won civil freedoms as well as heard earned national coffers, are; Right-Wing-Religious. Representing the confluence of many millenia of miseducation and logical inbreeding. Perpetrated mostly by one socio-economic class, the entitled rich, against another; the meek. (Who shall inherit the Earth.) The meek is an ethical anagram for right-wing-religious. The poorer and less educated the person, the greater the likelihood they will fall prey to this obeisance to superstitious nonsense.

When they hear a sneeze – they say “God Bless”. In a reflex. Put there by the Church centuries ago in another nice touch, tattooed on the minds of the minor child. They don’t know why they Bless God when they hear a sneeze reflex. They just do. Gesundheit.

The greatest threat to this convenient arrangement with would be Leaders, in which the developing mind of the next generation is trained to blindly revere a conventional order – a right-wing set of values, based on honoring the ‘way things were‘, is the ‘satanic lure of critical-thought’. As long as people don’t educate themselves, right-wing religious leaders will be just fine. Churches wont be taxed. And men in dresses can continue sexually abusing children in their houses of God, in numbers that are beyond horrifying, while proclaiming family values.

Those satanist infidels who would defile the existing order by thinking for themselves. (Bastards.) Its why Boko Haram – one of many anti-education religious groups – means – “Westernization is sacrilege”  popularly interpreted as “Western education is a sin.”

Ultimately all religions depend on miseducation to survive and must resist – and crush – and criticisms of their established order. In the history of education – since the concept went from Socrates to a student-teacher structure for information exchange, the worst culprit in presenting indoctrination as education is Religion.

Its a spectacularly successful business model. How rich is Vatican City? How rich are each one of the God appointed Arab leaders, who depend on religion to defecate on toilets made of solid gold as their supplicants continue bending over five times daily, facing in a specific direction, while living in actual squalor, entertained by the popular spectacle of public beheadings to remind them there are very real consequences for challenging Gods order. Its still working well in Saudi, on Fridays in Deera Square. All religions have their own special ways of discouraging apostasy, the worst possible use of freedom of speech.

But; we know, through the many generations of intelligent educated humans following on from those first sparked minds in the Socrates era, that Self Awareness is the key quality for a meaningful life. This is entry level – learner soul – knowledge available to anyone who can read. Available with very little effort, unless you are consumed by the cruel stupidity of religious belief. In which case; behaviorally, the religious are trained to resist the onset of awareness. Preferably by violence. In some religions, apostasy is punishable by death. In others, by economic ostracizing that is the financial equivalent of death.

Because once this cancer-of-liberal-thought takes hold of the religious believer, there is no turning back. The good book says – I am the only truth and every other one of the 1,787 Gods who say they are the only God and theirs the only Good-Book, are all wrong. Believe THEM and you will go to HELL. That is the entirely credible, sensible premise in the Religious part of the Right-Wing arrangement with logic and education.

This one third of the electorate who admit to blindly believing not only the word of God, but also the word of Gods men. The ones God chose to spread the news. The Government. Same as it ever was. Trump is POTUS because God said so. The only thing preventing this Godly control over America by this absolute power, is the constitution, and more specifically, the First Amendment. Without it, the Lords choice of Trump would be permanent and indelible. And all Trump critics would go the way of Kashoggi in the Istanbul Embassy.

It was the 19th Century son of a Religious minister, the self-aware self-educated giant of American education Robert Ingersoll who illuminated the stranglehold Religion held on the US political system. Ingersoll, billed in sold-out live shows as ‘The Great Agnostic” enjoyed enormous popularity up until his death in 1899, championing issues that elevated America far more than any President up until that age, and possible since. Freedom of speech, civil rights, women’s reproductive freedom and, especially, the role of religion in government.

But despite enjoying mass popularity on an unprecedented scale for an Atheist, his words and message, his lessons as embraced by many Americans in his lifetime, were simply erased by the Religious right. No POTUS contender could even think about calling religion a fiction. The push back from the religious right is as if their lives depend on not being subject to any criticism.

No matter how many millions of children are sexually abused by God club members in Gods name, in Churches around America, in a process of systemic abuse going back as far as the written word. No matter how many billions are avoided in Tax Free scam cults, no POTUS candidate could possibly consider taxing religion and hope to win an election.

Right-Wing Religion continues its stranglehold on Americas political system. Over 100 years ago Ingersoll was packing out stadiums of the day pointing out the consequences of this iniquitous system of abuse, as well as its unconstitutional relationship between Church and State but who among the electorate poised for 2020’s vote have even heard the name of Robert Ingersoll, let alone lay claim to any cogent level of self-awareness. Or even considered those first baby steps in critical thought? Not while we have the church of Fox news, resonating to the sound of Murdoch still laughing all the way to the billionaires bank. He must marvel daily at his enormously lucrative business model, making stupid people more stupid still.

The history of human-rights advances in America has largely been the fight by liberals opposing the traditional building blocks of right-wing religious conservatives, who selfishly resisted any change that did not benefit them personally.

right-wing-religious conservatism is above all, about greed and selfishness. Built on the theft of labor from those they can exploit with tier two super powers. Religion and brute force.

Without liberal opposition, the one third who pushed back against the ‘way things were‘, those who fought to effect change when it was obviously for the highest good, this short list of liberal successes would not exist. Perhaps it serves now as a reminder of what wil be reversed if we allow the right-wing-religious the freedom to continue realizing their core values.

Abolishing slavery. (1865)
Women’s Suffrage. Women’s right to vote (1920)
Abolishing child labor. (In 1900, 18 percent of all American workers were under the age of 16.)
Worker’s rights including a minimum wage
. (The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 set a national minimum wage.)
Civil rights. Ending open superior White discrimination and economic apartheid.
Environmental protections. Ending littering and seeing the importance of planet nurture.
Gay rights. Including ending the death penalty for homosexuality. Despite a 2003 ruling, there has still been unwillingness from certain states to fully comply. For instance, in April 2011, the Texas state legislature debated whether to repeal the state’s ban on homosexual conduct. Despite Lawrence V Texas, the state has not removed the law from the books. Meanwhile, 14 other states have not removed the laws outlawing consensual anal sex between adults. Currently only Alabama, Florida, Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Utah, and Virginia have laws outlawing all sodomy. Kansas, Montana, Oklahoma, and Texas still have laws on the books that outlaw only outlaw homosexual sodomy.
CO2 dependence withdrawal. Including the Paris Agreement and many international efforts to coordinate Climate change efforts.
Universal Health Care

All these issues were opposed by right-wing religious conservatives because; they didn’t benefit personally from these changes.
“The way things used to be” that defines the aspirational right-winger is best defined by their right to own free labor. Like the good ol ‘slave-days.’ Back when America was Great Again.

Goebbel’s was not the first right-wing-religious-raised to play the religious right-wing card. As another great American Atheist, the American Civil war Confederate draft dodger Mark Twain observed many years before “Religion was born when the first conman met the first fool.” Mark Twain was conscripted into the American Civil war. As a liberal conscript to a right-wing-religious war myself, I marvel at Mark Twain’s remedy.

Twain was working as a riverboat pilot in Mississippi when the war broke out but his stint in the Confederate militia only lasted two weeks before he saddled up on a willing horse and rode west. The single most sensible act of passive resistance I have heard of. Obviously, the dangers of Atheism for an Army looking to fight for their god given right to own slaves were then, and remain now, very real. Fighting wars depends on God belief. Every major war began because the belligerents had God on their side.

Goebbels was the first Mighty Christian soldier to have the courage and the opportunity to take that binary approach to its obvious conclusion. To identify the mental thinking-age of the religiously submissive acolyte, one third of the German population in the 1920’s, and write the directions program based on nothing more than that lowest common denominator, in awareness of how we can be so readily compartmentalized by our behaviors. If citizens have already bought ‘Accept I am the only God or else you go to hell” then your home free on closing the sale for their vote. (For so long as you remain free of any conscience, which is where God comes in again.)

It is no coincidence that the vast majority, if not 100% of the members of the National Socialist German Workers party were right-wing-religious. It is no coincidence that the vast majority, if not 100% of those who supported this party since its inception in the 1920’s were right-wing religious.
And no coincidence at all that the numbers of right-wing-religious in the USA in 2016 mirror those of Germany in the 1920’s. The three thirds by behavior. Red, Blue and Transparent.

The two qualities, right-wing and religious, go hand in hand and both behaviors are optimally suited to engage with the style of leadership that they are hard wired to support. If you are looking to win ‘votes’ in a popularity contest style election, the vagaries inherent in liberal thought; the premise that truth is uncertain at the best of times, can never compete with the certainty of right-wing faith. That’s the simple fact behind Democrats arguing semantics with each other while Republicans laugh in black and white unison.

If we consider any first-world Western Greco-themed democracy by the simple criteria of their primary success indicators; education, economy, equal opportunity, freedoms in key life choices, access to health care and right to choose whether to kill or not, it is easy to see three distinct social layers.

Three thirds.
Right. (Conservative, Greedy. Selfish.) Their color is usually Red.
Left. (Liberal, Kind, Thoughtful.) Their color is usually Blue.
Irrelevant (McDonalds diners, reality TV watchers, Voters for change.) Their color is none. They are transparent. Their vote costs a left shoe.

One third of the new generation will submit without challenge to their socio-economic birth position, remaining true to their post-code Godly allocation and the right-wing desire to keep things as they are. Which provides them with the opportunity to stay in the upper third materially and offers limitless opportunity to act without conscience in the delusion that forgiveness for any offense is but a quiet-word with ‘Him’ away. (In a coincidental social observation based on extensive peer review, most of these one third right-wing-religious are also recovering alcoholics. God bless the 12 step program. The gateway drug to Godliness.)

The second one third, the liberal thinkers, evolved ethically from what was formerly called left-Wing, will read books and be sparked to begin advancing their ability to develop critical thought. They will aspire to learn by assimilating from all sources and developing all senses in pursuit of knowing more with every passing day. Attaching a value to the memory of past lessons learned. They will look to learn Histories lessons. They grow daily in compassion, empathy and the ability to recognize the strength of any society is the equal of its weakest member. They hunger to learn the lessons of scientific achievement and to incorporate new ideas and ideals into their ability to discriminate between knowledge and nonsense. They will be tolerant and appreciative of all creative thought process and aware that the opposite of right-wing is not left-wing.

It is Kindness.

And then there’s the remaining third. The undecided. the irrelevant. The reality-TV generation of duh-thinkers. As readily unmoved by a brilliant book as by a compelling performance of mediocrity by a talentless TV show participant living their 15 minutes; and with the same degree of lasting influence. The why-me generation. Hoping to become why-not-me influencers of the aspiring class raised by Frank Zappa’s ‘Slime’. Many in this third identify, quite inappropriately, as Left-wing.

As ever, in these three groups, the one most likely to win any two-party popularity contest electoral vote count is determined by the combination of
1.) The willingness to lie without reservation, and 2.) The money to pay for the TV time to show the willing lie.

In other words, the best funded liar will always win. If you were to describe the prospects for any adversarial American election in four words, they would be; Who Lies best Wins.

The set of buttons right-wing-religious respond to invite manipulation in ways unavailable to the liberal, thoughtful third of the Greco-Democratic western examples I am referring to.

Historically, the most successful (In terms of the criteria of successful government representing the majority interest) periods of government in our Western Two Party Left/Right Greco-Democracies coincide with both left and right being equally represented at election time. While the remaining third, the undecideds, the gormless dolts split between good-intentions and indifference, remain fully satisfied by their reality TV show, fast-food virtual lives.

In this model of election outcome, closely split between left and right, there is a strong opposition. With a strong opposition party in the Halls of Power, come checks and balances to the excesses historically associated with right-wing government.

Without these checks and balances, unfettered right-wing-religious government always follows the same path; often, over the same time period. The life cycle of any single charismatic (or otherwise, because the expectation standards by right-wing-religious are predictably low) right-wing-religious leaders, from the acquisition of power until the realization that absolute power corrupts absolutely is usually 10 – 15 years of Prime Time.

The maximum life cycle of any right-wing leaders popularity before the basic fact that right-wing leadership never transcends Bruce Springsteen’s observation. “Poor man wanna be rich. Rich man wanna be King. King ain’t satisfied til he rule everything”.

Once that authoritarian model of leadership with absolute power is achieved, (the “I could kill a million of you for my amusement and you would still think I was the chosen one“) the ‘hungry mob is an angry mob‘ imbalance causes the sharpening of pitchfork tines in the nations coffee-shops. The super rich rewrite their wiki pages as Philanthropists, and hope the final wisdom does not eventuate.
Those who live by the sword die by the sword.” With no better role model reminder than Hitler, the right-wing religious supremo of his generation, who wakes up dead, his loyal wife by his side, with the massed Red Army bashing down the back door.

In this simple example of a three-sided motivation (Right/Left/None) in any two party western style duocratic Kleptocracy, that is determined by the media-controllers with most to gain, it is easy to see why the key to victory in an election is the inability of the majority to discriminate between fact and fiction. (Thinking is hard work. Its easier and best for everyone if you just hand it over to the big guy. The higher power. He knows best.)

False news works. Hitler promised “Lebensraum“. Trump promised a “Wall“. Both promised their white religious electorate entitlement as superior whites. Both vilified a common minority. Both knew they were superior to Blacks and so did their followers. Both were the genetic inheritors of German DNA, although only one actually fought for his God and Country in times of War.

Goebbel’s was the first propagandist to recognize this three sided model for manipulating a two-sided process, that invariably comes down to a ‘left’ versus ‘right’ decision.
Blue versus Red.
Right versus wrong.
One third abrogating all ethical concerns in the name of (Insert preferred God here) and perceived advantage by race (Insert color here), to sanction and defend any level of humanitarian hate crime with the idiot-argument. Unified in a common hatred of the national threat by (Insert racial group here.) The hypocrytic oaths by oafs.

One third horrified by that right-wing-religious inhumanity to the point of being outspoken in articulating the various offenses on display.
And the remaining third unaware. On any level.
They would stand watching, filming the new normal on their iPhones for 15 minutes while a right-wing-religious Trump voter suffocates a black man to death on the street. (May 25th, 2020.)

The last thing any established political party wants is a new generation able to use critical thought process to discriminate on news to the extent that they form their own independent point of view, unswayed by the distraction of reality TV trickery. The Goebbels model. The right-wing religious dog whistle listeners. Who will buy short sound bites. Sometimes just single sentences, from which they will infer pre-existing agreement in a familiarity that finds them in total agreement. The right-wing religious, to whom no explanation is possible. That’s how they are wired.

“Them that know, know that they know, and them that don’t know, don’t know they don’t know.”

It is pointless trying to educate an educated fool. “They will just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” What you can do though, if you can be bothered to do anything at all in these times where it seems the weight of idiotic-racist-lunacy is overwhelming, is to share the lessons of history. And in so doing, engaging whatever deceit possible, be it music-writing, book-writing, convivial conversation,  to share the mistakes of history in a black and white binary time stamped fashion. Recalling – with reliable – provable fact – the specific details of where right-wing-religious thinking ends up.

Funny thing; its always the same outcome.

Trump is not the first right-wing religious leader to dog whistle right-wing religious racists. He is just the most recent. With the most bankruptcies, the most rape charges, and the most trophy ex-wives. Previous Historical leaders who won two choice elections in a three split electorate have been around for as long as we have had wealthy owners of mass media to shape the opinions of the two thirds in any society who are programmed to receive.

Which reminds me of Golf. And the evolution of Golf in the endemic racist climate of American culture? is it a coincidence that the highest paid Golfer in all of Golf history is also the POTUS. Who transfers billions from Federal fund possibilities, like education, to his Golfing social network.

Endemic racism and Golf club culture love each other long time. America’s upper echelon racism is most ingrained in golf clubs. For the older, richer, KKK types to enjoy white supremacy with table service. When that outdoor cross burning praise-the-all-white Lord gets a bit too dusty.

What with golf clubs owned by Trump and his friends benefiting more than any other single business during the Trump ownership of America. These guys, the red right-wing Republicans, with their Catholic Protestant ingrained prejudice have historically made golf clubs bastions of white supremacy. Where the right wing racist heart beats the loudest.

Not that the golf clubs had/have any line in their rules that says “No Jews allowed”. “No Blacks Allowed”. There is no need for such crass racism, and besides, why invite the discrimination lawsuits now that Michael Cohen is not there to fix it? Instead the policy is operated deep in the consciousness of the members, Catholics and Protestants, who for generations have preferred to keep non-whites, especially Jews who could afford the cost barrier, out.

Up until 2,000, To join a good Florida golf club, a prospective member must be recommended by 12 current members, must have all 12 to their home and must visit their sponsors’ homes, all within a 12-month period. Only a few Jews have bothered to meet this onerous standard in the past decade, and most were married to Gentiles.

Trumps golf business has a tremendous record with Jewish and black member discrimination. They now allow black caddies and Jewish lawyers. The inherent racism doesn’t end there.

FBI statistics reveal how vulnerable American Jewry has become in the same climate that excluded them from Golf Clubs. Trump bought Mar-A-Lago in 1985. In 1998 there were 8,049 US hate crimes, with 3,120 black victims and 1,087 Jews. However, of 270 million Americans, blacks make up about 13 per cent of the population and Jews just 2.2 per cent: Jews are twice as likely to experience hate crimes as blacks.

Then there’s the Nazi connection with Americas right-wing-religious and their endemic racism. The Jews who were turned away by the US in the forties, ending up in camps in Poland instead of refugee housing in Arkansas. The Himmler ‘final-solution’ followed on from the failed obvious solution, as proposed by the Nazis to the US Government. To allow the German Jews into America.
Nein to that offer. Why would the US Government allow Jews to flood into the US?

Right-Wing-Religious made US immigration by Jewish refugees escaping Hitler in the 30’s hard. In fact, harder than hard. The numbers allowed in legally were frighteningly inconsequential. Bolivia was kinder.

About 85,000 Jewish refugees (out of 120,000 Jewish emigrants) reached the United States between March 1938 and September 1939, but this level of immigration was far below the number seeking refuge. In late 1938, 125,000 applicants lined up outside US consulates hoping to obtain 27,000 visas under the existing immigration quota. By June 1939, the number of applicants had increased to over 300,000.

Most Jewish visa applicants were unsuccessful. Lend Lease ships returned to the US in convoys, all empty. The US declined the German offer to fill that convenient opportunity, that was also free passage, with Jewish refugees. That was the proposed German solution before the final solution. The Nazi leadership made plain their preference for shipping Jews to ports for passage to America, rather than to Ovens.

Why did the USA decline saving these desperate refugee’s, even knowing what fate would follow turning them away?

But how could the Right-Wing-Religious have known things might get tough for the Jews in 1939? After all, Hitler was a Catholic. All the senior Nazi’s were themselves, Right-Wing-Religious.

In a highly publicized event in May – June 1939, the United States refused to admit over 900 Jewish refugees who had sailed from Hamburg, Germany, on the St. Louis. The St. Louis appeared off the coast of Florida shortly after Cuban authorities cancelled the refugees’ transit visas and denied entry to most of the passengers, who were still waiting to receive visas to enter the United States.

Denied permission to land in the United States, the ship was forced to return to Europe. The governments of Great Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Belgium each agreed to accept some of the passengers as refugees. Of the 908 St. Louis passengers who returned to Europe, 254 (nearly 28 percent) are known to have died in the Holocaust. 288 passengers found refuge in Britain. Of the 620 who returned to the continent, 366 (just over 59 percent) are known to have survived the war.

For any election process to have any validity, the ability of the voter to be in control of their own vote is critical. Otherwise, its African style ‘left shoe’ democracy. (Where you show up in the village with a bunch of left shoes. You hand them out to the voters before the election and promise to return with the right show after the election, if they vote for you.)

Without at least 33.4% of the populace capable of demonstrating critical thought, any half-assed manipulator of idiocy with a rich backer will always win.
Hands down.
“Do you think they would let you vote if your vote meant anything?
” George Carlin asked.

That is why for me, the single worst thing the 2016 election showed, is how the USA treat the education of the poor. Ensuring that an uneducated right-wing religiot would oversee the ongoing dumbing down of the next generation. Its Betsy time. And you can bet she is going to get the job done.

If there’s one thing the advent of a mysterious God arriving; to prove me completely wrong for all of my life since the onset of critical thought, with the assurance of making one-wish come true, for me it would be this.

Allow children equal opportunity to learn without prejudice. To develop the capacity for critical thought and find their own belief system based on an education worthy of the word. Acquiring knowledge by learning what is fact and what is not.

The ongoing use of religion to crush the developing mind of any child is to my mind, the greatest crime of my lifetime. It diverts them from finding any meaning in their lives and understanding and participating in the very essence of living.  Add to that the crushing weight of iron-clad right-wing belief, and all you have left is history repeating itself, one generation at a time. The right-wing-religious-rich get richer. The poor get children. And jail time.

It is important, critically so, that the right-wing religious ruled by tweet for the billionaire class take that first baby step towards learning the value of education in a factual, provable process of assimilating knowledge and reaching binary best case conclusions.

That process may lead to some variant of the kindness formula, that the meaning of life is to be happy and the way to be happy is to make others so.

Kindness as a life choice makes perfect sense, unless you are right-wing-religious. Then there is a need for greed and hunger.

Here, just for the fun of light relief, is a short course in discriminating between FACTS and opinions. Some in UPPERCASE.

Starting at the beginning of why Trump is President. Trump is a Genius. He has an IQ of 187. The BEST education. THE BEST words. He is 6.3 and weighs 230 pounds. This is from his own mouth. Why would he lie?
(FACT. )

He is the greatest President to ever represent the Constitution. The voice of the will of the people. More than 3 million Americans voted for him over Hilary. He didn’t need no hillbilly College system to win #LandslideTrump2016
(FACT  for every Trumpeter.)

He is making America great again because;
We support him,  he says and does what We want.
We want White privilege.
We want to shoot children trying to cross the border in the legs. (Not the face.)
We want to see kids taken from their parents and raped by fellow Trump supporters. Its a fair reward for being a Trump fan. (if that’s what they want.) And it will stop more of their caravans invading our country.
He understands exactly how we think and speaks directly to us. In the name of our Lord.
He is after all, Christs son. (Fred Christ.)
He said he would “BUILD THAT WALL” and he did.
(FACTS as well as OPINIONS of every Trumpeter.)

Gaylord Pence, the first openly homosexual VP in Trumps inclusive government may be evidence of a liberal tone in the WH, but its not true. He was involved in the impeachment effort, in case Gods plan was President Pence. And no matter how liberals try to create President Pathetic Pelosi, Gaylord will prove that His God has bigger plans for him than her Catholic God.  To be sure that President Pelosi prevents President Prence from the pardoning Trump option. #TrumpPenceLandslide2020
(FALSE NEWS)

He is a Christian, son of Fred Christ, chosen by the Lord to sort out the Muslin problem. He played his part in getting that Muslin Kashoggi skinned alive and beheaded in Istanbul. One less Muslim to criticize the Kingdom. One more billion from M.B. Salman to Trump. Good for Trump, GREAT for America. Kashoggi deserved to die. He worked for the Washington Post. He said bad things about America and our friend, MBS, the Saudi beheader with his very own Deera Square for public beheadings every week. Its a lot of fuss about one Muslim. Jared did nothing averse to his security clearance in giving up the time of Kashoggi’s embassy appointment. 
(OPINION of every Trumpeter.)

He has saved the economy. The awful trade deficit left by the previous President has been repaired by the Genius, whose deep knowledge of international finance makes ordinary economists like Yiannis Varoufakis look like swarthy Mediterranean Apes in heels. No one does better trade deals than Trump. To call him the GREATEST ECONOMIST in the history of world economy is just being truthful. The Dems hoax to crash the market and make Trump look bad has failed. The numbers are great. Unemployment at all time low. Trump is a genius. And it shows.
(FACT.)

The NRA is the greatest (and only worthwhile) Civil rights movement in the USA. It is our 2nd amendment right to be able to spree kill children with assault rifles. TRUMP loves his guns as much as we do. As long as we have Trump our GUN owner RIGHTS to KILL are safe. The BOYS need their automatic rifles to go kill African Elephants. And baby giraffes, from behind, at distance. It’s their American RIGHT.
(FACT.)

Tariffs and sanctions work. China is our Bitch. We are even winning with EU TARIFFS in the Airbus vs BOEING BUSINESS. They will never dare try tit for tat TARIFFS. Trump is too smart for them. Even thieir Virus nonsense was lame. Trump caught that hoax early.
(FACT.)

The military is GREATER than ever. We are spending more on military than ever before. This is a far better use of resources than repairing infrastructure, building schools or providing health care to the poor. Nothing can threaten our Nimitz class carriers. The Chinese cannot make any missiles to change that.  There’s a trillion dollars very well spent. And when Navy captains try get clever, Trump FIRES THEM. Mrs. Trump didn’t raise no fool.
(FACT.)

Education is overrated. Know how to listen. Know how to treat Blacks. And know how to Pray good. And know who to vote for. Blue lives Trump Black lives. Every time.
That’s all we need in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. Our education has never been better. Betsy is a genius appointment and Americas kids are in good hands. Every American kid starting school is going to get a fantastic BEAUTIFUL education. 
How to cook better Meth‘ is drawing big numbers to chemistry class in ALABAMA.
(FACT.)

Rhyming words to third grade level like ‘Build that wall’, ‘Crooked Hilary’, ‘Shady Schiff’, ‘Anal Stormy’, ‘lock him up’ and ‘Putrid Pelosi’ is a genius connect with clan members who love not being talked down to. Proud to be deplorable they recognize his genius narrative. He has the common touch which, considering his enormous intellectual stature, is the mark of TRUE GENIUS. (OPINION of every Trumpeter.)

EVERYTHING is going to be much BESTER for Trump supporters and their Education secretary Betsey. So much wining. We will never stop winning. Because he is our winner. Chosen by our Lord. He can do anything and we will give him a Mulligan. He told us that. And he ALWAYS tweets the REAL truth. The ONLY truth. He told us to be rapture ready. And we are on that train. He could murder a hundred-thousand Americans with negligence and bad advice live on TV every day, and we will still say #TrumpPenceLandslide2020
(OPINION of every Trumpeter.)

De facto Secretary of State and First lady of the White House, Yael Kushner is a tremendous ambassador for America and for Israel. A nailed down favorite to succeed Trump in 2024. Our first woman President. Israel has no extradition for citizens. She was born beautiful. And SMART. #PresidentKushnerLandslide2024 She is not, as Steve Bannon says ‘Thick as a Brick.
(FACT.)

Reading and learning from History is a waste of time. Great Orators of yore, your Churchill’s and your Cassius Clay’s. All of them combined could not hold a candle to the GREATEST ORATOR to grace our Televisions. A genius on a level so high he needs no notes. He can just improvise and the words come. Words like no other. Great words. The BEST words. Words like Adderall.
(OPINION of EVERY Trumpeter.)

Trump saved us from the myth of Climate Change. Pulled us out of the PARIS ACCORD. Brought us clean coal and great tax breaks for CO2 dependent business like big oil. Who paid him to do this? This chart is just more FALSE NEWS.
(FACT.)

Melania is super hot. The classiest first lady EVER. Even after she learned her husband had an affair with Anal Porn star Stormy 5 months after she gave birth, she still did her wifely duty with unprotected sex.  She is no ape in heels in the WH. Pure class. Pure Slovenian White. Her girl on girl work alone qualifies her for a genius visa.
(FACT.)

Because there is so much false news and because some people write false news to try and make our President look bad, the only way to be sure you are not reading some deeply ironic satirical take on a man whose business genius has made him a billionaire able to pay no tax while also running up losses to show the revenue service that make him the biggest winner in tax deductible losses in American History, is to ask yourself this question.
Should President Trump show his taxes?

If the answer is. No. He should not. Then you have passed the test. You are a proper Trump follower who cannot be taken in by false news. Your mama didn’t raise no fool. You know the only version of truth worth believing comes from two sources.
Trump on TV, the words from his own beautiful covid free mouth.
Or his Tweets.
That’s it. Even Fox news can no longer be trusted. They implied that Hilary won 3 million more votes than Trump in 2016 which is obviously FALSE NEWS.

I supported Trump in 2016. I knew he would win. He said so. I believed him. And he has been true to me since then. My faith has been REWARDED a million times over. And I know he is going to win in 2020. Even with all this FALSE NEWS about Ukraine, where corrupt Biden was STEALING MILLIONS from the poor people there, Trump stood up today and gave a masterclass.
The Chinese may have tried to out tariff him with a flu virus hoax? Trump snuffed that one out.
They tried to lock up Manafort? Trump got Willie Barr to sort that nonsense.
Flynn pleaded guilty? Oh no he did not. Nothing to see here except. Pure unmitigated genius.

Here it is. For any students of POLITICAL SCIENCE. The MASTER at the top of his GAME. THE GREATEST, Live.
He can top the ratings anytime he chooses. Every night. His own reality TV show from the White House. No one can come closer to the GENIUS.
