Today in Fascism

Please do not let this story about Donald Trump cowardly running away from Air Force One to hide in a catering vehicle, leaving everyone else to potentially be targets of a dangerous attack aimed at him, get swept under the rug, because there’s more to it than I think many people might realize.

Look, I understand that a president’s safety is first and foremost on the minds of the Secret Service, and for the sake of national security, it doesn’t matter who that person might be.

That said, the fact that, prior to his departure from Turkey, Trump went on social media to announce that he would be using the old Air Force One rather than his new Qatar plane — when he knew he wasn’t going to be on either — is, in my opinion, the bigger part of this story.

Why make that announcement at all?

Unless you’re Trump, and you’re hoping to divert any potential attack toward the old Air Force One rather than your new, shiny luxury Qatar plane.

And, hey, that plane is full of reporters, most of whom he hates anyway, so who cares what happens to them, right?

I know that sounds dark, morbid, and fairly conspiratorial, but what other reason would Trump have for making that social media post in which he oddly announced that he would be flying on the old plane rather than his new one?

It was unnecessary.

They could have done all of this without any attention-seeking post by Trump containing some lie about showing off his new plane to troops in the U.K. who were supposedly “begging” to see it.

They could have just boarded, left, and done whatever they were going to do to transport Trump safely, and that would have been that.

Except it seems like Trump really wanted to make it clear to any potential attackers that, if they were going to target a plane, they should make sure not to go after his new, shiny luxury Qatar airplane — but instead make sure they targeted the old one, full of reporters and other apparently disposable White House staffers.

Maybe that’s just me being a bit too cynical after dealing with this lowlife piece of crap for over a decade, but is it really so far-fetched to believe that Trump’s main concern, other than saving himself, would be protecting a plane he really wanted and finally had painted just the way he has always wanted an Air Force One to be painted, just for him?

I don’t think that it is.

This is someone who mocked the death of Rob Reiner, publicly celebrated the passing of Robert Mueller, and said he didn’t feel sorry for Joe Biden having terminal cancer. There’s really no low to which this scumbag won’t stoop as long as it benefits his interests.

And if putting a plane full of reporters and other White House staffers in harm’s way, while he ran away on a catering truck to safety and his new, shiny Qatar plane was no longer the focal point of a potential attack, meant making that post declaring that he would be on the old Air Force One — then I think that’s exactly what Trump would do.

Again, maybe I’m being overly cynical — which is entirely possible — but I don’t believe that I am.

I’m not saying this is why Donald Trump made that post. All I’m saying is that, based on what I’ve seen from this scumbag all these years, that’s what I think his social media post was largely about.

Protecting himself and his shiny new Qatar plane — while leaving everyone else on board that old Air Force One in danger.

Because, yes, I do think Donald Trump is that much of a sick, disgusting, lowlife piece of sh*t. ~ AC

Fauci has done more to damage science then any other person in American history...he had a lot of help though.

I'll say it for the umpteenth time, the opinion of a scientist, doctor, "expert" in their field is not science, it's still just an opinion. Science isn't a set of facts, science is a process, and if done correctly a rigorous and independent process. Most people don't understand this.
Idilot.
 
He of course is talking about himself.

His news sources that spoon feed him the D talking points are avoiding and not reporting what has been found.

Here is an example of why the public lost trust in the "experts"...sorry @dad4

Shit, in the body of bad acts committed by Fauci, this might not even make top ten. Not that it isn't a serious breach of trust, is just hard to compete against his other heinous acts. It's not that Espola doesn't know about the other bad acts, its just that he chooses to ignore them because that's what he is told to do.

The great irony is that the forum's grammar chief of police mispelled his single word response. I always find that forum insults are more effective if they're spelled right.

So you got spoon fed your talking points...again.

Apparently you have been unaware all of your life that when the Prez is deemed at risk...the secret service removes him. Leaves everyone else.

So nothing changed from past protocol. The only difference is the clapping seals receiving their daily dose of TDS didn't know this. And so repeat D talking points above.
 
Congratulations! Donald Trump has been awarded a ten-foot gold participation trophy for the Iran war. It appeared in Foley Square in Lower Manhattan on July 29, spray-painted, with a number one on its side. More than three dozen smaller awards sat around the base. Ribbons. Novelty trophies. A WWE championship belt.

The plaque reads: "We hereby award President Donald J. Trump this participation trophy for his enthusiastic involvement in the Iran War. While some concern themselves with military strategy, diplomacy, or measurable outcomes, President Trump demonstrated the courage to participate regardless of the final score."

And below that: "President Trump joins the ranks of children everywhere who received recognition for simply showing up."

The square is a few blocks from the courthouse where he was tried on thirty-four felony counts.

The artists call themselves the Secret Handshake. Nobody knows who they are. They have put up roughly a dozen installations around Washington over the past twenty months, including a twelve-foot statue of Trump and Jeffrey Epstein holding hands, and a golden toilet near the Lincoln Memorial mocking the White House renovations.

This one stood on the National Mall first, back on July 13, before making the trip north.

Their statement called it "the largest ever awarded to a sitting president," and described it as "an attempt to de-escalate the conflict through positive reinforcement." They invited New Yorkers to add awards of their own, noting that "no accomplishment is too distant, too small, or too unearned to bestow on President Trump."

A 79-year-old woman named Maren Stange stopped on her way to the subway, bent down to read the inscription, and laughed.

The president's press office issued a statement about the trophy.

"These untalented 'artists,'" spokeswoman Anna Kelly said, "should stick to their ugly 'art' and refrain from weighing in on foreign policy."

They could’ve ignored a trophy.

But they couldn't help themselves.

He made a point of making the legacy AF1 a target. An AF1 loaded with staff and journalists. He could have kept his mouth shut. He is a complete POS. We all see it.

So let's unwrap your TDS.

How did he make AF1 a target?

The press is the one that didn't keep their mouth shut. They have now disclosed one of the ways Presidents may be moved when intelligence seems there may be a threat.

The press should not have done that. How presidents are protected applies to members of both parties.

You really are a simpleminded individual.
 
We saw the gaudy towers, the gold-plated insecurity, the tabloid theatrics, the constant need to be seen as richer, tougher, smarter, and more important than everyone else in the room. We saw a man performing success because the truth behind the performance was never quite enough.

By the time The Apprentice arrived, many of us were not fooled by the made-for-TV fantasy. The show sold a carefully manufactured image of a brilliant, decisive billionaire. But New York already knew the history: bankrupt casinos, failed ventures, inherited wealth burned through or leveraged into spectacle, contractors fighting to get paid, marriages marked by infidelity, and a lifetime of lies told so often they became his preferred language.

We knew about the discrimination allegations against Black and Latino tenants. We knew about the scams, the stiffed workers, the inflated claims, the lawsuits, the endless self-promotion. We knew that every public act was driven by the same bottomless need: to be admired, feared, validated—and maybe, somewhere deep down, finally approved of by a father whose shadow he spent his entire life trying to outrun.

So no, this is not “Trump Derangement Syndrome.”

It is memory. It is pattern recognition. It is judging a man by the mountain of evidence he has built around himself for decades.

The country did not discover some mysterious new version of Donald Trump in 2016. It elevated a familiar New York character: a deeply insecure con man with a talent for branding, a hunger for attention, and absolutely no hesitation about hurting people if it gets him another headline.

Some of us were never impressed because we had already seen behind the curtain.
