California is unfairly skewing ALL the Polls.

We are going to need to start seeing Polls that exclude California to get an idea regarding how the rest of the Country feels about Political issues, you know, the racist part. Gasp. I have never seen such brainwashing going on in one State to the level it is going on in California. 

California has created a Genocide against some of its Seniors and how they are vetted by the MediCAL program. I am estimating ONE HALF BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR is being diverted from California Seniors to other parts of the General Fund. 

Since California has become Democrat Majority and Veto Proof, the level of insanity regarding the believe that there can be no WALL, Healthcare for all, Denial of epic Pension Funding inadequacies and dramatic reduction in classroom sizes in the LA District has reached literally mind numbing levels.

I see Trump's wall as part of the solution, the Wall creates less dependency on Government resources, which in turn "Might" allow for a better distribution of existing government revenue and resources to figure out other problems.

But in California, the demand is that all problems be fixed, none have to do with no Wall,  and if you think otherwise one is racist for disagreeing.

Democrat Party, the Party of Nyet, and Proud of it, Plans on Nyetting it all the way through Winning the 2020 Presidency.


Why is this ridiculous Nyet posturing by the Democrats going on? Within 2 years there will be another Presidential Election, if the Democrat party wins they can rip up the 3 year Dreamer agreement and create a new one.

The Democrats equate 5.7 billion dollars towards the Wall as somehow being permanent, while the 3 year Dreamer extension is not permanent. This is flawed logic. 5.7 billion won't build the entire wall. Partial Wall equals Partial Dreamer Agreement. Both to be continued after the Next Presidential Election. Trump's proposal is totally logical, but the Democrats are stuck in Nyet mode, and it may come back to haunt them in 2020.

So what is the Party of Nyet, afraid of? Are they afraid of losing in 2020? They sure seem smug these days. It is the same smugness that beset the Democrat Party in 2016. Hillary Clinton warned not to be too confident about winning the Presidency in 2016, and she was right. Yet here we go again. Democrats will Nyet anything Trump says or does as they coast to the 2020 Elections.

Any poll that uses California in it is a poll you should not trust because California keeps inaccurately skewing the actual sentiment of the rest of the country, you know, the racist part. So if 45% of the Country says they want the Wall, Subtract California from the Poll and the percentage rises to 55% to 60%. And this is after the ongoing and perpetual Media coverage of suffering families at the Wall, and that the Wall won't do any good even if it was built.

The Anti Wall rhetoric has gotten so insane that one half of the Democrat and Media argument is that the Wall is not needed because Undocumented Immigration attempts have leveled off without a wall, while another argument is that a record amount of Undocumented's just recently went both under and over a part of the Wall that already exists. So according to the Democrats and the Media, the Wall shouldn't be built because people will figure out how to get over and under the Wall, and also because undocumented attempts have leveled off, and because its racist. Is 500,000 undocumented attempts per year a lot? It sure seems like a lot to me. And apparently the number has gone back up in the past 12 months.

California has gone wacko, possibly siphoning as much as 1/2 billion dollars on an annual basis from Senior MediCAL and Healthcare programs so the money can go to other programs that align with real Democrat interests such as no border, raises for School Teachers, fighting against the Border. 

The Teacher's Strike is DIRECTLY RELATED to no Wall. The LA Teachers are demanding smaller classroom sizes, a direct result of having no Border Wall. Even though the reason for the larger sized class rooms is related to the lack of a real border wall, Democrat allegations of racism for Wanting the Wall continue to erupt over any mention of a Border wall if a correlatipon to excessively large Los Angeles Classrooms is made. The entire Teacher's Strike has been a Fake News Scenario involving Democrat Politicians on the National Level, the California State level, and the LA Mayoral level in solidarity with the Teachers. Yet No Math Teacher's are involved in the Contract Negotiations and numbers were never discussed. Because Numbers tell a different Story.

There is no real mystery to the Teacher's Strike. The Union's claim of a 2 billion dollar Rainy Day fund fails to mention that it took 6 to 7 years to create that fund. Simple math tells us that about 300 million dollars a year is being saved. The logical conclusion is 100 per year million goes towards the Rainy Day fund, 100 million per year goes toward the excessively bloated Pension obligation, and 100 million per year goes toward the Contract talks. 

100 million a year will come nowhere near giving raises and hiring new teachers so classrooms can be reduced. while also adding much needed Nurses and roving Teacher's Assistants. Rather than face the actual Numbers, theatrics have been introduced. David Vs Goliath, it's literally a Footloose Mentality in which one side just wants to dance, and the other side allegedly hates dancing. If the money is found, just remember that present MediCAL has stealthily figured out ways to siphon 500 million dollars a year from California Seniors and the HealthCare Programs that were designed to give them some home healthcare assistance in their retirement years.

If the Magic Money is found, it will be available through additional taxation, and the "reallocation" of services for Seniors to other parts of the General Fund. No discussion of the bloated Pension obligation for Teachers, or their excellent Healthcare, was discussed by the Media. Yes, Fake News Scenarios do exist. Create a David vs Goliath story and run with it, even if it hurts Seniors and the Middle Class who will end up paying for it by additional taxation ideas.

California isn't done yet, we are supposed to keep welcoming in the undocumented while proposing Healthcare for all, and through it all, no Wall. Gasp.

Yes, Mexico really is Paying for the Wall.

If the Wall is built, and if undocumented residents decline as a result, then yes, Mexico is paying for the Wall. 

Less Undocumented workers in the U.S. means less money flowing back to Mexico from workers here in the U.S. to their families. A Wall also means more government subsidized funding, in Mexico, for those who don't make into the U.S. 

Even those whoa are not from Mexico but go through Mexico to get to the U.S. will cost the Mexican Government money because they become Mexico's issue to deal with.

So yes, if Trump builds his Wall, Mexico will pay for it.

Seth Meyers makes ridiculous, Gaslighting Claims about Trump's Wall.

It's kind of a weird world when one can overall like Seth Meyers, yet call him out for being a Gaslighter of anything that Trump says or does. Seth Meyers rant about Trump's wall knew no borders when Meyers said...

What Seth Myer's said about Trump's Wall on January 8 or 9, 2019.

04:46.  Trump just made stuff up off the top of his head
04:48   because the wall was a ridiculous thing
04:50    he never thought he'd actually have to build.
04:52    At any point in the last two years,
04:54    Republicans -- who controlled the House and Senate --
04:55     could have given Trump money for the wall,
04:57     but they didn't, because it was obviously insane.
05:00    And now, in his desperation to get a deal,
05:02    he's throwing out everything he said about the wall


I recall things differently. Almost 100 companies were interested in building the wall in one capacity or another. Was the Trump administration supposed to decide overnight who would build the wall?

I recall Trump putting out a call for Border Designs. Companies who bid on the wall were threatened by Progressives with boycotts. The City of Los Angeles vowed to end contracts with anyone who bid on Trump's wall.  The City of Austin, Texas and San Diego also wanted to know who was interested in building the wall. Some companies either never made a proposal, or had to do it in secret. Anyone connected with the making of the Wall literally had to go underground and be secretive, almost as if they were a slave trying to cross into the North, and had to be helped along the way by pro Wall Sympathizers.
First the call for wall proposals had to be drafted. Then the call for Wall proposals had to be promoted. Then Wall Proposalists had questions that had to be answered.  The Wall Proposals had to be evaluated. The top winning designs had to submit design samples. Those finalists were then whittled down to a certain amount, and they had to produce an actual wall size sample. The wall size samples had to eventually be placed side by side, or built side by side, so they could all be compared.
Does all of that work and prep sound like a President who does not want to build a wall, Seth Meyers?

The entire wall process took time. In the world of Seth Meyers, if Trump wings it, he is ridiculed. If Trump actually follows a protocol and procedure, he is ridiculed and accused of never wanting to build the Wall. I am a Neitherist because all either side wants to do is blast the other side into bits. Our culture is turning into a violent cartoon strip and all that is left is to replicate the cartoon violence into reality.

The strike in Los Angeles by the Teachers is most likely a direct result of high pensions, amazing health care benefits, and possibly a steady and surprisingly large influx of first generation Americans from other countries, legal or otherwise. Teachers have had enough, they want MORE classrooms because there are too many students in the classes. Kind of sounds like they would be in support of Trump's wall, since that is one way to prevent more and more from wanting the same level of resources.

Rather than blame the kids who are already here for possibly being a burden on the country's resources, Trump just wants to stop more and more from coming in, undocumented, and for that he is being called racist. The meme that anyone who wants the Wall is a racist sounds exactly like the type of sound bite somebody working on Russia's behalf would have come up with.

If you are a Baby Boomer or older, beware when you are not properly treated for your pneumonia by either your own Doctor or the ER. "Oh, we don't treat or monitor Viral infections, we wait until it has infiltrated your chest cavity."  By then, it may be too late. But every senior citizen death by lack of proper pneumonia treatment saves the Government a LOT of money, money that the Progressives want siphoned over to anyone crossing a walless border. I saw it happen to my own Mother, who was denied treatment for her pneumonia and died 2 and 1/2 days later at home even though she was still walking 1.1 miles with me by her side.

My mother's life was decided by ONE ER Nurse who broke as many as 8 to 10 laws just to avoid treating my Mother's pneumonia. Nobody will criminally Investigate the ER Nurse. So all the attention about the Wall is just another obfuscation over how we are killing our Baby Boomers and Seniors by denying funds for actual police investigations when they are denied their basic Healthcare Rights.

Some Death Certificates are being altered to death by Natural Causes when the death was actually caused by the Flu or Pneumonia. My mother's was allegedly by a Heart Attack, it was a Heart Attack brought on by lack of care for her Pneumonia.

Democrats Can't Swallow their Smug Pride and may Repeat their 2016 Mistakes in 2020.

Didn't Democrats learn anything from 2016? 

Recent Polls show around 50% support for the Wall. Just as in 2016 when polls were being taken regarding Hillary Clinton's popularity, that 50% includes California. Remove California from the Poll and the rest of the Country is probably around 60% for the Wall.

Why not count California? Because California is Bi-Polar Hypocritical.  

Teachers ready to strike in Los Angeles because class sizes are too large, yet Politicians, Celebrities and Unions bristle over the very discussion of a Wall, the two issues ARE connected.

Governor wants to provide Healthcare for all, and have no Wall, even though having a Wall might actually make Healthcare for all more of a possibility.

After Trump was elected, California Politicians such as Jerry Brown openly mocked Trump over budgetary issues, even though the Budget Surplus California garnered was directly attributable to the First year Trump was in office and the Stock Market Surge. Plus, California knows how to Gaslight its Seniors in a myriad of ways, all of which is saving the State Money even if Seniors are suffering as a result.

I'm starting to wonder if California is under Russian Control. There are just too many inconsistencies and hypocrisies to keep track of. Going forward, the only polls that Democrats should care about are the ones that exclude California, that is the only way to know what will win in 2020, and what won't.

Newly Elected Governor Gaslight of California proposes No Wall, Healthcare For All, Gaslighting of Seniors to Follow.

California has become the Bi-Polar State of the Union. Most of the Celebrities, ALL of the Unions, the Media, and our youth overwhelmingly hate Trump and the Wall, and they don't particularly like older people as well. Even Hillary Clinton has abandoned people of her own generation so she can vicariously live through the youth oriented "Resist" Movement.

The Hypocrisy of Rich, Older Famous people being for Gaslighting of Seniors speaks for itself. It's the ultimate Narcissistic Adventure. Similar to the dreaded Vampire, the Older Rich and Successful get to stay young, not by sucking the blood of the youth, but by Gaslighting Seniors who are not famous. The Gaslighter's reward is they get to hobnob with the younger crowd while feeling young again by helping to assist in the transfer of funds from the old to the young every time a Senior or Baby Boomer is Gaslighted by the System.

Hillary Clinton has always been the one having to crash someone else's party, usually a Man's Party. I believe that for a few decades Hillary Clinton was damned no matter what she did. If she tried to fit into a Man's world, she was criticized for being cruel to woman, if she backed off and was more humane, she was deemed a woman who was not strong enough to do a man's job in Government.

When the time FINALLY came to break the mold and be her own person, she chose to abandon her Moderate, Aging Base in favor of the younger, Resist, crowd.

Now Governor Gaslight in California will Propose "No Wall, Healthcare for All". This is also code for, "we will increase Gaslighting of Seniors and Baby Boomers so we can provide enough healthcare for Wall Busters. Gaslighting is a method in which people who have concerns about how they are being treated by another or an institution are just not listened to. They are made to feel like what they think they think, is just an illusion. Gaslighting gains a foothold wherever Police Investigation and Enforcement against Gaslighting practices are abandoned. 

Our Veterans were and have been gaslighted for decades. As more and more programs come online to help Veterans, someone else has to take their place in the Gaslighting realm of our society, that's just how Government Math works.

It is easier for Liberal Majority California to call Conservatives Racists and glom on to the young vote, than it is to stare Gaslighting, which can affect anyone, in the face and actually use Law Enforcement dollars to Fight back against Gaslighting. But since Gaslighting Techniques are used by the Government more than anyone will ever admit to, Law Enforcement has to look the other way since they receive no financial support from the Government to Combat Gaslighting of Seniors and Baby Boomers.

To those of you who revere Baby Boomers, Baby Boomer parents, and parents of Baby Boomers, the next time a Baby Boomer or Senior you know who you thought was happy and healthy, has an episode that requires hospitalization, and they suddenly pass, you may discover they were Gaslighted out of existence by a super minority of ER and Hospital Nurses strategically placed who are probably following someone else's orders regarding using accepted, legalized, Gaslighting protocol to accelerate the Demise of the Elderly. 
  • Gaslighting a Senior creates significant financial gain for the State of California, and even the Federal Goverment so why spend even a dollar Investigating and enforcing EMTALA laws designed to stop Gaslighting in the ER when 
  • both the State and Federal government can instead fine Hospitals, 
  • reduce Medicare Payouts to the Hospitals as a penalty for Gaslighting, 
  • while also removing a senior from Social Security, 
  • and also removing that Senior from the Medicare system. 
  • The ONLY way, the ONLY way, to prevent Gaslighting of Seniors and Baby Boomers is by having the Police Investigate allegations of EMTALA violations that occur in the ER and our Hospitals. Police backed EMTALA violation Investigations are NEVER done.
I witnessed first hand the Gaslighting of my own Mother and myself in the ER by an ER Nurse. The Gaslighting actions were so dark and it was done so seamlessly it took me almost 10 months to learn what I witnessed was Extreme Gaslighting by an ER Nurse in a life or death situation regarding my Mother that was instead treated as if nothing more than sleep was required for my Mother's well being. That's how treacherous and easily lethal Gaslighting is. Just don't acknowledge a life threatening situation exists, which means the medical record won't show it either, and then send the patient home to die.
Think about that for a moment, I tell the Nurse I have been my Mother's caregiver for the past 10 years and my Mother has been showing signs of pneumonia for the past several days at home, and that my Mother she has just now started wheezing while in her ER bed, and the Nurse REFUSES to do any testing that would reveal the pneumonia and instead states that all Mom needs is rest, at home. And this went on for an hour until things got really bad and a fraudulent HIPAA violation was used to then call a Code Gray on me for doing what, for documenting the refusal of the ER Nurse to treat or acknowledge my Mother's wheezing, and then things got even worse.
Is it Fair to Call our new California Governor, Governor Gaslight so soon into his term? Of course not. Is it fair to have never once been approached by anyone in government or anyone who purports to be a difference maker about all that I have experienced, learned, researched and and shared over the past 10 years of writing this blog. Probably not. But I understand, to a degree. Writing over a thousand blog articles does not guarantee anyone anything. However, the evidence that California has become the Bi-Polar State is already in and it is daunting. 
  • California Teachers are ready to strike for a pay raise AND MUCH, MUCH smaller classroom sizes. 
  • California Zoning laws do not limit the number of people living in a home, 
  • California has become a State that demands no borders yet is unable to actually manage the result of no borders, 
  • too many people hidden in unseen places who require more services,
  • who get sick more often because of the higher density living quarters, 
  • requiring the shifting of services from life time Baby Boomer and Senior Citizen Taxpayers over to expanding populations from lack of a wall which is being masked by those who have lived here for decades and are now moving out of California, 
  • all while calling "Wall wanting Conservative policies" racist 
  • As California cannot accommodate a growing morass of California Bi-Polar budget conflicts that internally sound fiscally conservative in nature while publicly posturing that Trump is the problem.
Now we have a Governor set to create new policies that WILL Gaslight Seniors and Baby Boomers, hence the name, Governor Gaslight.

The Border Wall turning into a Win / Lose / Win proposition for Undocumenteds, Courtesy of the Democrat Progressives.

The Recent avalanche of Undocumented's to the US Border is becoming a Lotto Opportunity, thanks to Democrat Progressives and their wins in the House of Representatives.

Apparently some were paid to make the initial trip to the Border. But it turns out, getting to the Border means one is not only in the News, but if one is not treated like a U.S. Citizen, then there will be hell to pay in the Media and by Progressive Politicians.
These are pictures of my 91 year old mother. I took her to the ER because she had pneumonia. The ER Nurse refused to acknowledge my Mother's pneumonia and BLATANTLY broke EMTALA laws in the process. My Mother died as a direct result of the ER Nurse's mistreatment of her, and the Nurse was able to psychologically terrorize me, a technique called Gaslighting. I bring this up because it has now been almost 10 months since criminal behavior in the ER transpired that directly led to the death of my Mother, and there has been no investigation despite my repeated pleadings to lawyers, law enforcement and government officials.
But to be the parent of a child, a child who should not have been taken to the border, if the child dies, that parent now has legal representation and the attention of a nation ready to blame Donald Trump for their Child's death.

Age is something that is misunderstood. It just does not matter the age of a person when determining their "value" to society, what matters is, is some one there for them, helping them be who they can be, In that sense my Mother was truly still 20 years old. 

When my Mother turned 90 I sang her Happy Birthday and said to her, "Ten more years"! There was a prolonged moment of silence from my Mother, and in Italian she very jubilantly said, "Vente"! That means 20 more years. That is what matters. Mom liked living and had finally realized she was not going to be left alone, and that pleased her.

The less attention we give to seniors, the more this country will divide. It's not just about Social Security and Medicare, it's about knowing that the life of a Senior who still wants to live, matters. When other members of the senior's family want them to live as well, how can we under value that as a nation?

Right now I have been told in no uncertain terms that a senior can be abused while in the care of Medical Personnel and no criminal investigation will be conducted of the Medical Personnel directly responsible for the Harm and Death of a senior, such as what happened to my Mother. Unless of course it was a family member or a thug off the street who did the harm, then that would be investigated. Apparently Law Enforcement will not Investigate EMTALA violations in the ER caused by an ER Nurse, no matter how egregious their actions were.

Do you really have to wait until it happens to your own parent before you "get it". The Border News "vacuums" other news events that are also affecting Americans who are already in the U.S.  There should be room for both stories.

And therein lies the problem, just how much attention should the Border be getting while Americans all over the U.S struggle and the Media and the Legal Profession continues to look the other way, towards the Border.

Nancy Pelosi wants to Negotiate directly with Russia and Bypass Donald Trump, why that may not work.

Nancy Pelosi is planning on bypassing Donald Trump and talking directly to Putin,  an extremely clever position to take by Pelosi, but there is a but. 

Russia is cold, windy, and gray more often than not. People are going to be inside more often than other nicer weather countries spending a significant amount of time either having sex, getting drunk, or getting drunk and having sex, or having sex and then getting drunk for having sex, OR, they are going to be on computers, simply because going outside and making a wrong turn and getting lost could cause someone to die from the cold, and they have bears.

A person who lives in a country like Russia that has less nice weather than other places, while the other places are constantly patting themselves on the back about how great they themselves are, might cause Russian Civilians and the officials they are advised to vote for, to be tempted to screw with the bragging countries by Russian Social Media and desktop computers.

What about Denmark and Finland? Why are they different? Maybe because they are smaller countries and the country as a whole is able to pull together better than a place like Russia that is so vast.

Until we start patting Russia on the Back, in Public, for doing more with less amicable weather than most other nations on the planet, Russia may continue to see successful countries with nicer weather as Narcissistic, and treat them accordingly.

Why is it ok for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton to admit no mistakes regarding the 2016 election?

The way the game is played in Washington is whomever is President is repeatedly attacked until they grovel on their hands and knees. Disagree? Let's start with Bill Clinton. Republicans were furious that Bill Clinton was using some of their ideas to try and create a zero annual budget deficit. Progressives were angry that Bill Clinton dared to even consider, let alone use, any Republican based political construct that put extra pressure on the poor. 

George Bush Jr. was repeatedly assailed for many things. His Wars, inability to come up with an immigration plan, recycling his Father's cronies into his own administration, Cabinet Choices, Mispronouncing words.

Barack Obama was attacked for ObamaCare on the right, and from Moderates for basically getting way too much help from the Media to defeat Hillary Clinton in 2008. Obama's Immigration policies were also attacked on the left as being far too aggressive and on the right for being fake attempts to look tough. There were also allegations of gun running, and amazingly enough, the fall of several Middle Eastern Countries Leaders was celebrated worldwide, yet condemned by Conservatives. And then there was the chirping over Benghazi while these same Conservatives kept quiet about the 20 daily Veteran Suicides in the U.S.

Now Donald Trump is being pilloried by Progressives, Democrats and the Media. Any reason for an Impeachment is fine by probably 40% to 45% of those taking part in these types of polls.

But a Trump Impeachment will just create Political Forever Gridlock going forward. And if we think about it for a moment, wouldn't Political Forever Gridlock, PFG, make Russia proud that their actions created an Impeachment that then created Political Forever Gridlock in the U.S. Political system?

Donald Trump is massively proud of his Presidential win in 2016. Hillary Clinton is still fuming mad about "What Happened".

People keep calling Trump selfish. I would suggest that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are just as selfish for trying to create an image of being the reasonable ones and the good ones and that Trump stole the 2016 Election. The reality is, Obama gave Hillary Clinton flawed advice about how to deal with Bernie Sanders, and Hillary Clinton screwed up by having no Facebook Political Micro Ads Strategy while Trump went big time on Facebook Political Micro Ads.

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama could go a long way towards healing America if they both admitted they screwed up the 2016 Presidential Election Campaign. That is just as likely to happen as Trump admitting he has done anything wrong. 

We have a situation where the Baby and the Bathwater have both been tossed out and all that is left is an empty Bathtub being banged on top of everyone's head, courtesy of Russia.

The Case for not impeaching Donald Trump.....is Hillary Clinton.

Back in 2008 a lot of weird things happened during the Democrat Presidential Nomination process. I recall at one point a court challenge was made in one of the caucus states. It might have been the Nevada Caucus, it could have been because Florida and Michigan's votes were discounted because they moved their primary dates into January, even though that was beyond the control of the candidates, or it might have been the collusion between Obama and two Democrat candidates who tricked Hillary Clinton into remaining on the Michigan Ballot, then blasting her in Iowa as being an opportunist for remaining on the Michigan Ballot after they had removed their own names at the last minute without telling the Clinton Campaign.

Whichever incident caused the hearing, I recall the judge saying something that applied to all three situations, "They are your rules, if you don't like them, you change them".  While it is pretty clear what the Judge was saying, it bears repeating. You are just a political party within a political system, if you are playing shenanigans you get together and fix your own shenanigans.

There are a couple of interesting dilemma's in play. In 2008 it was Democrats screwing over Democrats, with Hillary Clinton getting the brunt of the abuse by her male political counterparts. In 2016 it was Trump creating fake news and lies and over exaggerations and possibly collusion from Russia, and once again making Hillary Clinton the brunt of the false accusations.

But there is a but. Ultimately, Trump apparently was able to guide his followers via low cost Facebook Micro ads. Targeted Facebook Micro ads cost as little as one dollar a day and can reach a couple hundred people within a targeted region or demographic. For not much money a campaign could reach a million people a day.

Hillary Clinton apparently showed no interest in running Micro Ads on Facebook, and it cost her dearly. It's not just fake news that did Hillary Clinton in, it was an inability to respond to her detractors with lightening quick responses to her own supporters via her own Facebook Micro Ads as a way to quell crazy accusations. Facebook Micro Ads would have recharged Hillary Clinton's base. There were times in 2016 where Hillary Clinton just took it, and did nothing, especially from Bernie Sanders. As an all in Hillary Clinton Supporter in 2016, I was kind of upset that she did not see how bummed out her own followers were at her inability to give back as much as what she was receiving. 

In other words, Hillary Clinton did not feel the pain of her supporters watching her being attacked and savagely targeted. Kind of weird in a way, kind of oxymoronic as well. A Political leader that cannot feel the pain of the people who support her that is being caused by the attacks the Political leader is absorbing and brushing off.

I recall getting lots of requests to make Donations to the Hillary Clinton Campaign and I did make some contributions. I don't recall ever getting a Facebook Micro Ad from Hillary Clinton responding to any of the insanity that Trump or Sanders put out during the 2016 Presidential Race. One would think that at the very least, contacting a donor on facebook, so the donor could at least post to their own timeline if they chose to, would be a no brainer of a way to effectively rebut false claims that were being circulated in the Media.

Perhaps the reason Trump revels in his 2016 victory so much is he figured out at some point that Facebook Micro ads were going to really help him. And he probably was amazed that Hillary Clinton was not doing the same. Think of it as finding a secret door to a place that no one else seems to know about. I think to this day Trump will never accept any wrong doing about anything because he knows in the trenches, he came up with a strategy that Hillary Clinton completely missed, Facebook Micro Ads, and he used it to defeat her.

Sadly, prior to Trump's antic's Barack Obama had asked Hillary Clinton to not attack Sanders and instead keep the peace. The problem was Sanders lied repeatedly about how close he was in the race, using Trumped up Caucus results to mislead his followers and paint a very false picture that the race was rigged. Sander's people went so far as to state that if the super delegates were not counted, Sanders would be winning, and his supporters sucked up the lies. The bigger the lie, the more it appeared that Sanders supporters ate them up.

If Hillary Clinton had had Facebook Micro Ads in play, she could have disputed Sander's claims on a more localized level instead of hoping the Idiotic Media would be fair.

Congress nor the Judicial System should take away Trump's 2016 win. Hillary Clinton should have won by 6 to 10 million votes. I believe Hillary Clinton's lack of physical fitness affects her political methods. A frantic person, someone like Trump, probably saw the value of Facebook Micro Ads, the ability to buddy up with people on a literally  one on one basis whereas Hillary Clinton, a non frenetic person, probably saw the Facebook Micro ads as a waste of time, too much busy work to deal with. 

To this day Hillary Clinton wants to be vindicated, she wants to hear that she was wronged. This too is the foible of a non sports minded person. Instead of admitting to what she did wrong, and that she could have done better, she wants revenge, and redemption. This type of "I was wronged mentality" is not what I want in a President.

I see Hillary Clinton as a Battleship cursing through the water while demanding respect from Submarines, Bombers, Rocket Launchers and Dynamite loaded speed boats. It just doesn't work that way. Political Agility is the key, and Hillary Clinton, because she is physically lazy, does not have that attribute. And, no one in her inner circle has the guts to tell her to get in shape, not one. Heck, I'm even afraid to put the prior sentence in bold.

Yes, lack of physical fitness and energy can torpedo a politician into not welcoming the concept of Disruption that a candidate needs to understand, to win. Obama Disrupted his campaign with a rather adventurous let's go to the Frigid February Caucuses attack plan. Unfortunately the lack of true fairness in caucus contests made Obama's momentum streak in 2008 over inflated, but none the less effective. Also, to his credit, Obama personally met his speech writer after an early campaign stop, and hired him right then and there! This was political agility in action. 

Trump showed his political agility with lies in the Media while playing buddy buddy with his followers via Facebook Micro Ads. The person who came to his campaign to do the Facebook Micro Ads was first drawn in by a Trump Real Estate associate because Trump wanted his own real estate ads to be made as cheaply as possible.

Talk about agility, some guy who was really good at making internet ads from home first gets swooped up into Trump's Real Estate Business, then is offered the job of ad campaigns for Trump's Presidential run. I think Hillary Clinton wanted to prove she was one of the boys, and in the process never really got the inside scoop on what that meant. The Majestic "voice over political ads" she chose to pin her hopes on were indicative of her Battleship methodology in action.

I still believe if somebody got through to Hillary Clinton, and got her to realize that physical fitness is key to winning, and she embraced the concept, her mental and political agility would rise to the challenge of being worthy of being president in 2020. I fear that Hillary Clinton is still waiting for vindication that she was robbed in 2016, and if that is the case, then she has shortchanged herself and the country, and is not Presidential Material.

Unless Hillary Clinton admits to screwing up in the 2016 Presidential Race and gives specific reasons why she screwed up, she won't grow anymore as a politician, nor will she have any chance of winning back any of her Moderate Base that Manafort, Stone and Devine probably conspired together to make sure she would lose to Trump.

Apparently Donald Trump is tripling down on anything about Hillary Clinton that he can convince his cronies to do an investigation about. Hillary Clinton would be wise to set up a Facebook Micro ads account and put a million or two million in a reserve, and hire a few people to be rapid Facebook Micro Ad Responders, whether or not she runs in 2020. It would also be a sign of appreciation to her millions of followers who continue to respect the heck out of her and feel angst at her repeatedly being used as fodder by the right.

Is Trump guilty of anything worth being impeached about? I would suggest that Trump is the epitome of the Fox guarding the Hen House. However, what High Powered politicians out there are not guilty of the same?

The Real Russia Collusion Probably involved Tad Devine and Paul Manafort and a few others.

If Robert Mueller's Collusion Investigation does not research the ties between Bernie Sanders chief strategist Tad Devine and Trump Campaign Supporter Paul Manafort, actual Russian Collusion may not be found.

The strategy of pushing Hillary Clinton from Moderate to Progressive for the 2016 Presidential Elections was a master stroke of genius that allowed Donald Trump to swoop in and steal millions of Moderates who previously supported Hillary Clinton. As Cannonfire previously reported and warned SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE THE 2016 ELECTION, "Mirror Imaging and Election Fraud", Devine, Manafort and Roger Stone knew each other from their Eastern Europe Political consulting days following Devine's turn as Al Gore's 2000 Presidential Political Strategist.

The Sanders campaign and the Trump campaign probably colluded to force Hillary Clinton to go way left. Sanders was offering unrealistic promises like free education for all and Pot in every home, and enough Progressives ate it up that it forced Hillary Clinton to backpedal on several issues, including her reluctance to see coal miners die from working in the coal mines. Is what Devine and Manafort possibly concocted together, forcing Hillary Clinton to go wack a noodle left, illegal? I have no idea. Was it collusion if it was a plan? Most likely. If Russia was in any way involved in Manafort's and Devine's possible collusion, would that be considered illegal, I would guess yes.

But there is a but in the room. Hillary Clinton has since embraced her Progressivism. So even if Hillary Clinton was forced from her more Moderate Politics, she has never looked back nor regretted her decision. So if collusion is found between Manafort, Devine, and Russia to force Hillary Clinton way to the left, but Hillary Clinton has embraced that shift in her political objectives, does that nullify the collusion after the fact? 

I don't know if after the fact can ever be considered as a defense to nullify collusion, but it sure adds a tinge of irony to the entire scenario. I would suggest that players in the Russia Collusion are Manafort, Devine, the NRA, The National Enquirer, The Globe, with funding for various endeavors funded by Russian Oligarchs, and Donald Trump's Debt to the Oligarchs, and of course, Roger Stone, also unveiled in several Cannonfire articles. 

If we take Devine, The NRA, The National Enquirer, and The Globe out of the above equation, It will be interesting to see what remains and if a strong enough case for collusion still remains.

And finally, Donald Trump and his cheap ways led him to hire a guy working out of his home to first make Real Estate ads for Trump's Real Estate Business, then ultimately designed Facebook ads down to the street level for Trump's Presidential Campaign. Meanwhile Hillary Clinton went with Hollywood favorites Morgan Freeman and Dr. Maya Angelou to do Voice Overs for her Political ads and had the ads run over and over and over again. It reminded me of a luxury airliner taking off. But where were the agile ads, the ones made on shoestring budgets. There were some, but overall, the Freeman and Angelou ads dominated here in California. Maybe in other parts of the country they went a different way?

I believe the race was ultimately won by what apparently was hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of Facebook Street level ads by Trump's Ad person that were literally targeting anywhere from 1 to 5 people with targeted content. Each ad was personalized. Not sure where Trump's Facebook Ad Director found the time to do all of those ads. He was interviewed for 60 Minutes and that is his claim. If true, that is how the election was won. 

For whatever reason, Hillary Clinton was unable to shake old school ways and allow for any type of newer style of advertising disruption, whereas Trump's inherent cheapness  allowed for a disruptor to come in and shake things up with Facebook Micro Ads.

And yes, the second Comey letter may have catalyzed tens of millions of dollars for negative ads against Hillary Clinton to come steaming in over the final 10 days of the campaign, and that definitely had an effect. 

However, if Hillary Clinton had had in place a system of facebook micro ads, she could have instantly volleyed a credible denial. Hillary Clinton's biggest weakness was her ongoing reliance on the media to tell her side of the story whereas Trump kept finding ways to either use the media to his advantage, or go around the media with his Facebook Micro Ads.

So even if Hillary Clinton is somehow vindicated when the Mueller investigation is over, will that be a good thing? If she hasn't been able to analyze and fix what her own weaknesses are and instead wants to keep focusing on Trump's behavior, then her effectiveness as a leader is compromised. Get in shape Hillary Clinton. My 91 and 1/2 year old mother was still walking 1.1 miles and if the ER had not violated 9 laws that led to her death, I believe she was still on an upward trajectory in terms of her endurance. And fight for Middle America. Winning a couple of large states by large majorities while losing vast swaths of America by not so close margins is not something I would be proud of. 

If Hillary Clinton had been in great physical shape, and if she had used Facebook Micro Ads to tell her story, she could have won the 2018 election by 5 to 10 million votes.

How Donald Trump's scorn of California may backfire on him in regards to Tomorrow's 2018 MidTerm Elections.

Tuesday, May 16, 2023 8:23am update: As it turned out, the vote to Impeach Donald Trump would have been 190-185 NO, if California's votes were not included. So, antagonizing California to curry favor with the red states still produced a prodigious backlash for Donald Trump as he lost key California Republican districts which gave California and Nancy Pelosi enough of a California Democrat super majority to allow insurrectionist Nancy Pelosi to create Political Gridlock while the media blamed Trump.  End of Tuesday, May 16, 2023 8:23am update:

It chaps Donald Trump's behind. Hillary Clinton won the 2016 popular vote by almost 3 million votes. California alone was in favor of Hillary Clinton over Trump by 4.3 million votes. A stunning almost 2 to 1 margin in the state with the largest population of voters of all 50 States.

Trump resorted to claiming that there were massive amounts of votes cast by illegal or non residential immigrants in California. So in his pettiness, Trump has used California as a whipping post whenever he feels the need.

But now Trump's pettiness could come home to roost, against himself. There are five California races in Republican strongholds that are neck and neck. These five races in California, were they all to go Democrat, could shift the balance of power in Congress.

However, while this is good news for breaking up the Trump monopoly, it is not necessarily good news for California. The truth is, the ability for Republicans to put up some fight against over taxation from California State Democrats is what has saved the state from even bigger budget deficits and even higher taxes.

Union, Environmental, Immigration and Educational support have given California a Democrat State stronghold that has to constantly find new sources of "revenue" to appease all the groups Democrats are beholden to.

I don't mind a Democrat Majority in California, not at all. I do fear a Democrat veto proof super majority in the California State Legislature as it will lead to more taxation and more prioritizing of immigration rights over senior rights, all because Trump could not play nice with California. So what could be good for the country, breaking up Trump's Congressional monopoly by California voting out some Republican politicians, could be bad for California as it becomes a Democrat Super Majority.

Older Folks are more afraid of the Democrats than the Republicans.

Back in 2008 when Hillary Clinton ran against Barack Obama for the Democrat Nomination, Clinton had a diverse base of support. Back in 2008, Small business owners supported Hillary Clinton, Women supported her, Ethnicities supported her, I think even the elderly supported her. The one group she was losing was the younger people, even with Chelsea Clinton campaigning on campuses. Democrat elites were convinced that Obama could win over all of Hillary Clinton's supporters, while also appealing to the younger crowd who clamored for change.

10 years later and Hillary Clinton seems to have dived into the very group that she had the weakest support, the millennials and younger. While some may see that as a daring move, I see it as a betrayal of people her own age who don't have the wealth that Hillary Clinton has but have steadfastly stood by her for the past 25 years or longer.

As I venture into the guardianship abuse issues that are pervasive around the country, Barack Obama seems to be getting a significant amount of the blame among those who have lost loved ones to corrupt public guardians who basically get a court order and seize an elderly person from their own family, sons and daughters, and then spend the elders wealth.

I do believe that Obama and his administration tried to deal with the most difficult aspect of healthcare, those who are younger and healthier and were gaming the system by only getting catastrophic health insurance. It was a lose lose proposition as there really is no way to convince somebody who upped their hospital only insurance coverage deductible from 1,000 dollars to 5,000 dollars per event and in the process dropped their monthly premiums in half.

A person with a high deductible, Hospital only policy could reach the break even point in 2 and 1/2 years and from then on would be saving a massive amount of money year after year even if they had one Hospital Event within that 2 and 1/2 time span. The Medical industry argued that this was a form of Top of the Muffin abuse. Avoid doctor visits and wait until something grave happens that could have been prevented with doctor's visits but now requires hospitalization, which is then covered under the catastrophic, high deductible, low premium plan. A perfect storm of Top of the Muffinness.

However, there were millions upon millions of people whose premiums went up and the only way to qualify for lower cost, affordable healthcare was to lose one's job and be covered by a spouse's healthcare plan.

I think Trump's plan is pretty simple, he will continue to be the target and keep Democrats off of the real problems the Democrat party faces, such as winning back some of the geography they have lost to an America that believes the Democrats favor immigrants over people who have lived in America for decades or longer.

Hillary Clinton's rush to be a part of a political youth movement would have only worked if she personally took responsibility for her own personal health and actually moved her body in a manner that is known as physical exercise. 

While Trump apparently is not in great shape, Trump apparently does not drink or smoke and he apparently stays remotely in shape by fighting with people, who oblige Trump by fighting back.

Republicans and Trump misinterpret Jacob M. Howard's interpretation of the 14th amendment.

Republicans and Donald Trump have misunderstood the meaning of Jacob M. Howard's comment regarding the 14th amendment.

Apparently Mr. Howard stated... This will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the government of the United States, but will include every other class of person.  end quote.

The commas after the word foreigners, and then after the word aliens, were meant to connect the two terms to what follows immediately thereafter, the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the government of the United States.

What Mr. Jacob Howard was saying was foreign dignitaries who are in the United States and who have offspring born in the U.S. do not have to worry about their children being U.S. citizens.  No different than if U.S. dignitaries in other countries bore their children in another country would not have to worry about their children being called citizens of the country they were born in.
The U.S. was so anxious to have both Naturalized and Natural born citizens back then that Mr. Howard then concludes by stating "but will include every other class of persons". end quote.

In other words, the only people who are born on U.S. soil who WILL NOT be considered U.S. citizens are those who are the offspring of foreign political dignitaries, and this was done out of a quid pro quo because obviously American officials in foreign countries who have offspring in that country would most likely not want their kids to not be U.S. citizens.

Wasn't John McCain born on a military base outside of the U.S., I think it was Panama? McCain was still considered a U.S. Natural Born citizen even though he was born outside of the United States and in a foreign country. The same courtesy, but in reverse, is being offered to foreign dignitaries who reside in the U.S. when their offspring are born.

The Race is on to accuse the other side of incivility before the 2018 Mid Term Elections.

Who can be more civil until the 2018 mid term elections. Donald Trump went out of his way to brag about how politely he was behaving. Wow.

The Progressives Biggest Mistake and how Elizabeth Warren is making it Worse.

I wish I could directly refer to the piece of video I saw after midnight earlier today. I think it was on Meet the Press. Warren was asked about Trump's Washington Post approval rating being 47% and she gave a really bizarre answer, that if the economy was as good as is being stated it should be even higher, or something to that effect. Dumber than the answer was her tone. Warren seems tone deaf. Warren comes off as someone with no plan other than to figure out how to get enough people together to get what they want for themselves and to justify their position because they belong to some type of disenfranchised minority.

The problem with strength through affliction is if the group gets too big, the Victimhood Life Raft, sinks.

But Progressives have an even bigger problem. I heard the following in the past day or two. Progressives protect the weakest among us, it is their mantle of honor. Here is the problem with that political stance; just above the weakest among us are the people barely holding on who are doing it out of strength and love for their family and community. These groups are routinely called racist by Progressives if they speak too loudly or disagree with a Progressives point of view.

Republican Politicians are constantly doing things to piss off the actual majority of people out there. So how can the Democrats be missing the boat? I would suggest the lack of tolerance for people who are afraid of losing what they already have, in favor of saving people who have even less, has created a Racism cauldron in which Progressives cannot figure out how to include those who have just enough to get by and could lose it all very quickly with just a little bit of bad luck.

When we then factor in immigration issues, then the tilt really comes into play. As I have said in the past, if we can't fairly treat the seniors we already have, how are going to treat an influx of people as they age?

Another related fact addressed in an earlier DailyPUMA article is Democrats have become citified. Republican strong holds have most of the land in the country, and rather than be embarrassed and tackle this issue, Democrats would rather focus on a modest plurality of total voters and pretend that having significantly less land than Republicans is a non issue.

The type of Latino in each party is radically different. The Democrat party has a large number of Latinos in power positions who feel the need to be pro Latino on every issue. Republican Latinos have taken a much different path; they don't want anyone coming into the country to have it easier then they had it themselves and they certainly don't want their tax dollars going to "first timers" when the Republican Latinos already here worked their butts off to get where they are now.

Republican minorities have worked their butts off and when they look over at Democrats, not only do they see a parade of entitlements for the weakest among us including immigrants, they also see physically soft Democrat leaders who look like they could not do a weeks worth of honest labor.

How Republicans could win the Civility War.

The "Which party controls more land" versus "Which Party has the most votes" battle could end up favoring Republicans. Republican voting majorities cover significantly more actual geography than Democrat voters, meanwhile Democrat Voters are in the majority. 

Hillary Clinton has recently espoused talks of Civil Unrest, presumably fueled by the Kavanaugh rush to nominate and the relatively brief FBI investigation. The Civil Unrest / Protest talks will noticeably affect those who have land to worry about, more so than Democrat strongholds in more densely populated areas. Even if more densely populated Democrat areas pose a threat for violence or mayhem, ironically by other Democrats, the incivility can definitely be used as a reason for Republicans to feel fear and to vote in record numbers.

Hillary Clinton's call for civil disobedience is playing right into the hands of Republicans just before election time. The cruel irony is going back in time to 2008 when Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were deadlocked in popularity, it was generally regarded that Hillary Clinton supporters were overall the more peaceful, law abiding supporters.

As Hillary Clinton's original Moderate base shrinks and moves to the Republican side, she has now shifted to influencing younger voters. I find it sad to see Hillary Clinton abandon some of her 2008 base. Of course there still are many solid, 2008 Hillary Clinton supporters to this day, yet Hillary Clinton seems to be seeking out younger voters who are not necessarily of the kinder, gentler nature and don't necessarily value her specifically because of her age and lack of physical fitness.

A recent "Hand Made Films" Progressive Political ad features seniors as the bad guys who selfishly vote for their own self interests as they encourage young voters to not vote. Hillary Clinton is basically an affluent senior who has aligned herself with the under 45 crowd. The under 45 crowd basically blames the over 45 crowd for most of the world's problems. Hillary Clinton is sadly becoming the caricature the Republican Party warned everyone about. The difference is the Republican warnings prior to 2016 were probably way off. Now, in 2018, not as much.

Now more than ever Seniors need someone to represent them and show a different side to aging. Unfortunately Hillary Clinton has not gotten the meme.

The Real Damage Trump does to all Americans occurs when he meets with Foreign Leaders.

DailyPUMA believes that under Trump, America is for lease to Trump friendly bidders. The price for acceptance by Trump is to make Trump and his family, business or political allies, happy. Just recently Trump lobbied for Sheldon Andelson to be granted a gambling license in Japan. Andelson made huge donations and crazy anti Hillary Clinton commercials in late October of 2016. Coincidentally, the donations from Andelson poured in after the FBI had started their second Hillary Clinton email investigation. There were rumors that Andelson was not going to commit his pledged donations in the 20s of millions of dollars unless momentum shifted for Trump. 

The FBI announcement of a second email investigation shifted momentum and DailyPUMA believes occurred in conjunction with Andelson's commitment in October to fund the anti Clinton commercials. DailyPUMA believes it was Rudolph Guiliani who orchestrated the FBI and Andelson into their October Surprise actions.

Fast forwarding to today, if a Foreign leader is able to make Trump, his business buddies,  family associates or political allies, happy, the foreign leader will be spoken about glowingly by Donald Trump in public. If the foreign leader pushes back, Mr. Trump will speak disparagingly about the foreign leader in the media. DailyPUMA believes this is a form of economic treason since the core reason for Trump's motivation is financial enrichment for his associates, or his own family, his political allies, or possibly even for himself.

How Trump gets away with it is by accusing actual life long politicians of doing the same thing. Trump followers can then rationalize that it is much worse for a politician to do exactly what Trump is doing, then for Trump to do it because Trump has only been a politician for a relatively short period of time and even then, Trump's relationships were developed while a private citizen. In other words, a life long politician should never use their contacts to gain financially in any way, but a private businessman turned politician is just being a maverick trying to help the U.S. economy recover from years of political give aways. 

While Progressives continue to apply the lifetime political measuring stick rules that are applied to lifetime politicians, to Trump, they may continue to not gain much ground on Trump. Even if Progressives manage to gain ground on Trump in the fall of 2018, it will probably be minimal and just make Trump's remaining loyalists, fiercer.

Apparently Trump Supporters will forever believe that a consensual relationship initiated by Monica Lewinsky and accepted by Bill Clinton in the White House was far far worse than Donald Trump having numerous relationships as a private citizen AND then bribing the women involved into keeping quiet just prior to the 2016 presidential election. Nor  do Trump supporters think the women being tricked into selling their story rights into oblivion by publishers who politically support Trump is as big of a deal as the Lewinsky story was. To Trump supporters, pretty much anything that Trump does rises to the level of what a politician does as a politician because Trump's initial actions occurred while Trump was a private businessman.

Progressives and Media Progressives don't want to acknowledge the present truth that a private business person gets more latitude, even if they become president, then a life time politician does. Although Mitt Romney was defeated because of his business dealings, the difference is Trump has been very public about his business "achievements" for the past 30 years, giving himself a get out jail free card, so to speak. The result is gridlock among Progressives who don't seem to understand that Trump is playing under a different set of rules because of his very public life a private citizen businessman. Apparently we will continue to see a battle to the death between political parties, until the next battle to the death, and then until the next battle to the death.

DailyPUMA wonders if the better course of action is to just accept the double standard and change course. As it stands now, we are a divided country. We are divided by one party holding a significant plurality based on actual land area, and another party holding a significant edge in voting numbers. These are two immovable forces and the mistake our battling political sides are both making is clinging to the notion that their majority is the only majority that matters.
