PROGRESSIVE STREET...Where liberals Walk
Robert Reich talks about Donald Trump's "deep
state," (ie. Steve Bannon) but concludes the Oval Office has now
progressed to Trump’s Corrupt State. He adds..."Not since Warren G. Harding’s sordid administration have as many grifters, crooks and cronies occupied high positions in Washington."
The corruption is compounded by the conclusions by the
media, private sector, and some in government that, "this is a White House
out of control, with a Commander-in-Chief not in charge." Here's a shocking
example from CNN’s Alexander Marquardt, a Senior National Correspondent
focusing on National Security...
"He makes clear Trump’s not the one calling the shots,
and is only making decisions to fend off internal bickering and power plays in
his administration."
Bob Cesca of Salon says...
"Worse yet, there are millions of Americans who will do
anything to circulate Trumpism until it becomes fact and therefore the basis
for governing the country from now on. In the face of all this, too many news
outlets refuse to act in accordance with the challenges of this existential
crisis."
Want a laugh? Watch Chuck Todd, Donald Trump interview...
Typical of Trump's lies in perpetuity, still using former
President Barack Obama as his customary whipping post, Trump tells Todd...
"'Congress never approved Obama’s Joint Comprehensive
Plan of Action, aka the “Iran Deal.' Since it wasn’t a treaty, Congress didn’t
have to approve. But Congress passed legislation, signed by Obama, allowing
legislators to evaluate the terms of the deal. To his credit, Todd caught that
lie."
What is so pathetic,
and also fearful, is that Chuck Todd treated Donald Trump in such a way to
legitimize the Oval Office lunatic who is far from earning it. Cesca says...
"Let’s put it this way: When Trump starts to act like a
president, then maybe he’ll earn the right to be treated like one."
I think most of us will agree that will never happen.
