He is the second coming of Hitler. The most evil deranged and dangerous man on the planet. People often pose the question "if you could go back in time and kill Hitler as a child would you do it?" Essentially asking would you kill Hitler before he commits any crimes in order to prevent him causing mass pain and suffering. In years to come I firmly believe people will ask "if you could go back in time and kill the rapist Donald Trump before he got chance to commit atrocities would you?"
I couldn't go back and kill Hitler. Without the war, my garndparents would never have met and my mother (or aunt) wouldn't have been born. Neither would I, my sister or my daughter. Some other bugger would have done something similar to him anyway - and maybe worse if they'd invented nukes first.. There is an argument that if time travel exists, this is the *best* timeline and the others are *worse*.
I keep watching Netanyahu and Trump in the white house wanting to ethnic-cleanse Gaza, and it reminds me of watching old films of Hitler and Mussolini planning which European country to attack and ethnic cleanse next.
I was just going to post that some of Trump's images on tv remind me of exactly the way Mussolini posed in the 1930s, head back, square jawed, insolent determined look.
Netanyahu has gifted Donald Trump a golden pager, a reference to a deadly Israeli operation against Hezbollah that killed 37, including some children, and injured nearly 3,000, many of them civilian bystanders. Trump and Netanyahu are barbarians revelling in death. Civilisation stands on the brink.
That's twisted. Netanyahu is gleeful he can hang on a bit longer appeasing his far right coalition, Trump sees a holiday resort and no doubt a golf course and neither care about the bones they build on. In other news, Sky were doing a piece on a USAID project in South Africa for women with HIV. Closed doors, nobody there, a woman turning up for assistance. This policy of closing foreign aid will literally kill millions over time. And there are similar sentiments in our two hard/far right political parties here. Twisted.
It will also increase the "illegal immigration" that they seem to be against. The best way to stop it is to improve conditions in their home country.
Since when have fascists and far right ideologues been concerned with joined up thinking though? They need a perpetuated problem so they can continue to blame and ratchet up their ever draconian response.
Not the point of the post but I’m surprised the lightning deaths are so low. The electrical storms they get in Florida are something to behold, I’d have thought they alone would have claimed more.
Listening to the mighty Robert Zimmerman and thought I'd post this in this thread because it's like Bob saw the Orange One coming 62 years ago. Genius. Bob not Mr Orange.
And stating Ukraine will probably be 'Russian at some point', while requesting $500bn of 'rare earth'. Maybe he needs it for his orange pigmentation. $500bn worth probably wouldn't be enough though.
