COVID Shots and Brain Fog
COVID Shots and Brain Fog
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Examining
America’s social milieu, you would not be thought out of touch if you concluded
this society is going crazy; hard and fast. It’s not just the incessant media
bombardment of negative news, mass shootings, corruption, gender dysphoria or
bone headed government decisions and policies; there is a prevailing sense that
mental illness is metastasizing throughout the country. We are at odds with our
neighbors, our co-workers, family and fellow citizens and the rancor seems to
be deepening. The partisan bickering is intensifying to the point people are
talking about civil war. This is insane.
There are
obvious signs and symptoms of increasing mental illness in this society. More adults
and children are reporting feelings of depression, anxiety and they are seeking
professional help. https://www.kff.org/mental-health/exploring-the-rise-in-mental-health-care-use-by-demographics-and-insurance-status/
Others are being prescribed psychotropic drugs or they are self-medicating using
drugs and alcohol. Substance abuse is prevalent in the US https://www.mastermindbehavior.com/post/addiction-statistics-dab8b
These are symptoms of a society facing
traumatic disfunction and disintegration.
There are a myriad of factors and
causes at work here, some are obvious while others not so much. The SARS COV-2
“pandemic” is a major factor and an ongoing stressor. Fear and anxiety are
rampant in America these days. People were deliberately misinformed and
constantly told, by the government and media, how dangerous and deadly SARS COV-2
was, when in fact it had a 98% recovery rate for healthy people.
The operative words in this context
are healthy people. The problem is the US is not a healthy nation by any means.
There are huge swaths of US demographics whose quality of health is extremely poor,
whose immune systems have been severely compromised due to their unhealthy
“lifestyles”. https://www.halletecco.com/blog/why-americans-are-unhealthy,
https://thehill.com/opinion/healthcare/5295701-americans-wealthy-but-not-healthy/
Obesity is rampant in the US as are
hypertension, diabetes, cancer, heart, Kidney and liver diseases. In an environment
of chronic disease such as America, introductions of unsafe materials into the
body under coercion and duress are bound to cause additional problems and
stress! The government’s COVID “remediation” efforts and policies culminating
in the roll out of massively hyped yet woefully untested and highly unsafe mRNA
inoculations in a nation which was already unhealthy and at risk, has
exacerbated America’s health decline.
The myriad adverse reactions to the
COVID shots that were originally suppressed by the government, media and Big
Pharma, are now being revealed and brought to light. Major health anomalies are
widespread and more and more are being discovered as time passes. There is ample
evidence the mRNA shots are causing major organ damage https://citizens.news/591443.html
and there is documented evidence the shots cause serious issues in
reproduction, such as stillbirths and miscarriages. https://academic.oup.com/humrep/article/38/12/2536/7308743?login=false
One problem is the government still
continues the bogus narrative that COVID shots are safe and effective and have
saved millions of lives despite the patently obvious facts the mRNA shots failed
to stop the spread of the numerous COVID strains or the resulting sickness!
Back to America’s
mental health problems, it is now being reported the COVID shots are negatively
impacting the brain, causing what is called brain fog as well as additional
harmful symptoms. https://thenewamerican.com/video/dr-stephanie-seneff-how-mrna-shots-induce-brain-diseases/.
Government propaganda claims brain fog is rare, that’s exactly what they said
about all the other adverse effects to the shots! By now we know this is a lie.
Symptoms of brain fog include long lasting dizziness, cognitive impairment,
diminished concentration, reduced abstract thinking ability.
These symptoms have a deleterious effect on
human emotional stability and behavior. Psycho-social issues such as feelings
of anxiety, social withdrawal, depression, hopelessness and helplessness,
worthlessness, problems sleeping, distress and lack of productivity, problems
processing information, finding the right words to use and slowed reaction time
are also being reported.
Many of these symptoms are being attributed
to COVID itself not the shots, however researchers are discovering proteins
that are causing inflammation they call prions that do not match with
the SARS COV-2 virus. There is speculation these proteins have misfolded causing
inflammation in the brain. Another possible explanation is the proteins are the
result of the COVID shot introducing spike proteins that misfold. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/300998/20240125/unlocking-insights-prion-proteins-covid-19-mrna-vaccines-prion-diseases-emerge.htm
If this is true, the CDC, Big
Pharma and the government have a lot of explaining to do! The problem is they
are not going to enter into a dialogue willingly. More research needs to be
conducted on how COVID shot induces brain inflammation which in turn induces
brain fog.

Now Is the Time
Now Is the Time
Junious Ricardo Stanton
The concept of time is an artificial construct
invented by humans to help us understand the processes of living by providing
reference points using such notions as the past, present and future. Humans
have marked time differently over the millennia. Some used the moon, others the
sun while others invented calendars to mark the passing of days months and
years.
But in the end, time is merely a man-made construct
something all cultures internally agree upon to suit their needs and purposes. In
our era, we say things like: time marches on, time stood still, or time is
speeding up. It is none of this, because the concept of time is something we
make up, it is not real, it is not an actual thing.
Many of us
are fascinated by time. We’re always focused on some aspect of time, the past,
the future and the present. Unfortunately, most of our focus is in the form of
worry, anxieties, apprehensions, anticipations and expectations. Remember when
you were younger you couldn’t wait to turn a certain age or you felt you couldn’t
wait for your natal day, a holiday or special event to arrive? That was in the future
something you were enthusiastically anticipating. On the other hand, there were
things you dreaded, maybe a doctor’s visit, a school examination or a
conversation with teacher, your parents, a girlfriend or boyfriend. All of these
were couched in the concept of future time.
On the other
hand, many of us are overly fixated with the past. We spend inordinate amounts
of energy and thought thinking about, emotionalizing, rehashing, regretting and
reliving events and experiences that have already happened not only to us but
others whether a few days, months or even lifetimes ago. For example, history
is seen as the past, some of us want to leave it there and not remember it at
all while others carry it with them constantly for better or worse. We spend
our energy often agonizing about our experiences, or joyously reliving them
because of what we accomplished and achieved or didn’t.
From a
practical perspective all we have is now, the present. The past has already happened
and the future is yet to occur. Yes, we can learn many valuable lessons from
our past, our history impacts our present because life is a continuum, on
ongoing process. We can use past
experiences to help us navigate the present. We are all creatures of habit. We
tend to do things over and over again often because it feels “comfortable” or
because we want to fit in, conform to others’ expectations and demands of us,
their norms or our cultural patterns. All
we have is now, that being the case let us decide to use this now, this moment
to be our best selves.
The best
way to effectuate this type of self-actualization and transformation is by
living in the now, being aware of the present, what many call being mindful.
Our present can be better than our past if we choose it to be regardless of happenstance
or what is going on around us. We have the power to alter our lives, we have
the ability to effectuate change, to either deconstruct or reconstruct our
lives by changing our thoughts, attitudes and our behavior. We have the ability
to refashion and change the trajectory of our lives for better or worse. This
is a powerful ability one very few of us take full advantage of because too
often we are stuck in the past, worrying about the future or conforming to
someone else’s vision or agenda!
Daily we
are manipulated by nefarious forces using highly sophisticated technology to
create a false reality and manufacture a state of being which benefits and
enriches them totally at our expense. They want to enslave us in a dystopian technocratic
hellscape. They do this by keeping us distracted, deceived, discombobulated and
divided. We can escape their manufactured milieu by thinking critically, being
aware, mindful and envisioning a purposeful life for ourselves here and now. We
can not only alter our own destiny and quality of life; we can help change the
world for the better. It is possible. Now is the time, take full advantage of all of
its possibilities and potential.

We're On a Slppery Slope
We’re On a Slippery Slope
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Donald Trump’s
deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles California, Washington D.C. and
his threats to do the same in Chicago Illinois and Memphis Tennessee is placing
this nation in an untenable predicament. Under the guise of public safety, Trump is
using the National Guard for purposes they were not intended to serve. The
Natonal Guard is for emergencies: to assist in natural disasters or to quell
uprisings and riots. Usually, the
governor of the state is the one who calls for the activation of the National Guard
units in the state once he or she has declared an emergency, not the president.
The situation
in L.A. with the wildfires was an emergency yet neither the governor nor the
mayor called for the National Guard to be deployed. Trump took the unusual step
of bypassing both of them and calling for the deployment of the California National
Guard. There the guard performed a variety
of tasks from aerial firefighting using their planes and helicopters to try to
contain the blazes, on the ground firefighting, aid distribution, traffic
control and security.
In D.C. Trump’s rational for
deploying the Guard was to boost security, augment policing, and clean-up of squalor.
The Guardsmen and women were deployed around federal property as well as
several neighborhoods in D.C. The mayor of Washington D.C. did not request
assistance from President Trump and was resistant to his activation. Several
Republican governors supplied their Guard Units for deployment in D.C.
With
regards to Chicago and Menphis, Trump is threatening to send in the guard and
use them as law enforcement to supposedly augment those cities’ police
departments. The problem is, just like L.A. and Washington D.C. neither the Chicago
and Memphis mayors nor the governors of those states has requested federal aid!
Trump is literally militarizing the National Guard authorizing them to perform
duties the state and local governments have not requested! His Republican pal
governors are supply the troops to comply with Trump’s activation orders which
is quite unusual!
On the
surface it seems like Trump may be or could be considered well intended, but
upon closer scrutiny he is overstepping his bounds. Using high crime rate data,
Trump is playing on the fears, anxiousness and gullibility of the American
people, something this nation already has an abundance of. These cities are run
by duly elected mayors who just happen to be African-American which plays well
with Trump’s base who believe everything he says no matter how foolish, untrue
and fabricated it may be. Trump is subtly playing the race card insinuating
these elected officials are unable to deal with the problems in their own
cities and states. Meanwhile it is apparent Trump’s policies both domestic and
foreign are ineffective and wishy-washy.
The mayors acknowledge they have crime in their
city; all cities even Red State cities and towns have crime; but these mayors challenge
Trump’s assertions the crime rates in their cities warrant the deployment of
the Natonal Guard. In fact, the mayors say crime is down in their
municipalities. National statistics, even Trump’s FBI’s data, verify violent and
property crimes are down in the US, that homicides despite what the nightly
news says are down across the US!
Nevertheless, Trump is using
contradictory data to justify his actions. Trump ever the showman/circus barker
is using this disinformation to accomplish several objectives: one, he is brazenly
overstepping his constitutional authority, the Posse Comitatus Act
forbids deployment and use of troops in a law enforcement capacity, but Trump
is ignoring this. Second, by mobilizing
the Guard he is getting Americans used to experiencing soldiers on their
streets in a law enforcement capacity, third Trump’s deployment of the Guard is
complimenting the use of surveillance and biometric recognition technology such
as Palantir to spy on Americans and set up a Big Brother police state infrastructure
that would make George Orwell blush with envy. Lastly by calling on Red State
governors to supply and deploy troops in Blue State cities, Trump is exacerbating
the partisan divide in this country.
Whether or not Trump is aware he is
doing all these things is not the point, he could very well be an unwitting tool
of the Deep State. Trump is not the first US president to be used and played by
nefarious forces and interest groups like the Military Industrial Complex, the
banksters or foreign governments.
What does this mean for us? It
means we are already on an extremely slippery slope, one that, along with the
other bone headed moves Trump is making, could take this nation into the abyss
of a technocratic police state, and this is not hyperbole.

Don't Fall for the Okey-Doke Again
Don’t Fall for the Okey-Doke Again
Junious Ricardo Stanton
The murder
of Charlie Kirk was merely one of numerous shootings, killings and murders that
occur in America on a daily basis. The fact he was a political influencer is
immaterial. He was a Soul whose life like so many in this country was
needlessly and prematurely snuffed out. Whether it was a political hit or a
random act of violence is not the issue, the issue is there is a lack of
respect for the sanctity and importance of life, a lack of morality in a
culture that uses gratuitous violence as the predominant form of entertainment.
Then when something like this happens, we feign shock and horror despite the
fact violence has become a rampant daily occurrence.
Unlike the
hundreds of Americans who are shot and killed in America on a daily basis, Charlie
Kirk was somewhat famous, he had a media following, he had a platform, he was
the darling of the right, a conservative influencer and organizer. He was a
personal acquaintance of Donald Trump; he campaigned on his behalf and Trump
included him in his MAGA circle of supporters and acolytes.
As a “celebrity” Kirk was known and
revered in right wing circles and held up for his public pronouncements and
ideology. His strident commentaries reflected an animus against liberalism,
progressives and their policies.
Kirk rose to prominence within
ultraconservative circles when he co-founded Turning Point USA a student-based
organization in 2012. The organization grew nationwide and became his major
platform for his ideology. He was supported by wealthy and influential
Republicans and toured the nation sponsoring debates between young, college
aged Republicans and Democrats after dropping out of Harper College a community
college near his home in suburban Chicago Illinois.
Kirk had been influenced and radicalized by The
Tea Party an insurgent group that denounced US fiscal and to some degree US
foreign policies. He was a skillful organizer and he targeted younger Americans
with his message. Soon Turning Point USA became one of the largest conservative
organizations of its kind in the US. Kirk railed against the culture wars and
what he considered Marxist influence even publishing a list of college
professors whom he considered purveyors of “leftist” propaganda. His professors list caught on and through it he
gained even more attention and followers.
Kirk distanced himself from the virulently racist
Neo-Nazi fringe of the right and embraced Christian Nationalism which is still predominantly
White oriented. He was a supporter of Donald Trump during his 2016 presidential
run, he hobnobbed with Trump’s sons and became a key player within the Trump
wing of the Republican Party.
Turning Point USA subsequently established
several subsidiary organizations and Kirk became a role model for young
conservatives due to his zeal and organizing skills. He had a popular podcast;
he authored several books, he sponsored college and university speaking tours
around the country where he promoted free market capitalism (which doesn’t actually
exist), limited government and he was a harsh critic of America’s current
socio-political-economic conditions. Charlie Kirk was shot and killed on September
9, 2025 at a college in Orem Utah where he was speaking.
Now the Right is in arms about his
murder. They are calling it a political assassination and making him into a
martyr. Many are saying his murder is the opening salvo of a new US “Civil War”!
Donald Trump has ordered the lowering of all US flags to half mast in honor of
this man.
Meanwhile several HBCUs were closed and put on
lockdown due to threats. However, there is no evidence these threats had a
direct correlation or connection to right wing supporters of Kirk!
Nevertheless, US history is replete with examples of White ire and outrage
being focused against Blacks due to the Whites’ fears and prejudices over the
economy, their tenuous socio-economic status or whatever boogeymen and hobgoblins
they conjure up rather than dealing with the root causes of whatever problems
real or imagined they are experiencing. Today
in the US right wing White males are full of anger and angst; who knows what
they might do. Look at what they did on January 6, 2020. The Left is just as
animated and agitated and the nation is polarized and divided.
We must remain vigilant but don’t
fall for the okey-doke. There may be civil unrest but there is not going to be
a civil war. In our communities we are more likely to be the victim of a home
invasion or random attack by our own then by rabid right-wing fanatics! We have
our own issues to resolve and truth be told we cannot rely on White folks or
the government to do so.

Labor Day Contradictions Abound
Labor Day Contradictions Abound
Junious
Ricardo Stanton
Today is Labor Day, a day set aside to remember and honor
workers and organized labor and their struggles to gain respect,
decent wages, safe working conditions, benefits, the right to bargain
collectively and a place at the workplace decision making table. The
irony is on this day there is an ongoing attack on organized labor
and unions spearheaded by the government at the behest of corporate
executives, the financial sector supported by national elected
officials and oligarchs alike.
President Donald J. Trump has been in the forefront of this attack
on organized labor which goes back several decades. Billions of
dollars have been spent to push back the gains made by both public
and government unions and this pattern will continue into the
foreseeable future. Upon his return to the White House, Donald Trump
has overseen the negation of hundreds of thousands of federal
government workers collective bargaining rights. He has terminated
400,000 employees of the Department of Veterans Affairs and the
Department of Environmental Protection collective bargaining rights
and illegally terminated thousands of government employees.
He
has done this by Executive Order, fiat, personal
decrees which are
highly authoritarian. He is using little known legislation like the
1978 Civil Service Reform Act which allows for the setting aside of
collective bargaining if collective bargaining is not applied in a
manner consistent with national security requirements. This
is a seldom used piece of legislation that Trump
is applying unilaterally to dozens of federal agencies such as:
Federal
Communications Commission, Environmental Protection Agency and the
National Science Foundation.
Trump seems to like following Ronald Reagan’s model and example.
In 1981 President Reagan broke a strike called by the Air Traffic
Controllers Organization who were demanding better pay and working
conditions. Reagan swiftly decertified the ATCO, effectively
rendering it a non-entity while simultaneously firing all 11,000
members of the union! Ironically Reagan was a former union member
himself having served as the president of the Hollywood Screen Actors
Guild.
What made Reagan’s gambit work was the fact that powerful unions
like the Teamsters and Longshoreman failed to support the ATCO
membership. Had just these two union gone on strike in solidarity
with the ATCO, all commerce across the nation would have stopped,
Reagan would have had to back down, and been forced to deal with the
air traffic controllers. Alas that did not happen and Reagan won a
major victory for anti-union forces.
Similarly Trump seems to have little organized opposition, there
have been a few lawsuits filed by federal union employees which are
winding their way through the courts. Trump has won a few decisions
in the lower courts while others are still pending. Trump’s
Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) was not created by
an act of Congress so it really has no authority. It really was a
working group or consulting entity.
Following the firing of thousands of government workers by DOGE,
Trump was forced to scramble to get the Republican controlled
Congress to approve the job cuts and his tax bill. It remains to be
seen how the courts will rule on his firings and the abolition of
collective bargaining rights for hundreds of thousands of government
employees.
Meanwhile people are partying, cooking out and going about their
business celebrating a federal holiday that was created to honor the
struggles and hard fought victories of workers, oblivious to
organized labor’s long history or to the implications of what Trump
is doing now!
The fact of the matter is, union membership is in decline in the US.
Only 11.7% of private sector employees are union members while their
federal worker counterparts make up 29.9% union membership. Decades
of deindustrialization in America, offshoring of jobs and the shift
to a service economy with so called gig worker has accounted for much
of the decline in private sector union membership. However the push
to de-unionize by corporate owners, employers and the federal
government is also a major factor. We should think about this as
Labor Day 2025 comes to a close.

We Are Living in Bizzaro World
We Are Living in Bizzaro World
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Every day
we are assaulted with more and more absurdities, irrational claims, government
pronouncements and policies that make no sense at all. Eight months into the second
Trump presidency we are witnessing the implosion and collapse of the Democratic
Party as Trump places his stamp on the Republican Party which means we will see
more flip flopping, outrageous bombast, threats, contradictions and
gaslighting.
It’s as if
we somehow got sucked into another dimension and we are now living on Bizzaro World.
Some of you may not know what Bizzaro World is, it is a fictional place in the DC
comics universe one of Superman’s nemesis created. Bizzaro was a sort of Frankenstein
Superman who was created by the mad scientists/criminal mind Lex Luthor, but Bizzaro
was so flawed he was a caricature of Superman. Bizzaro later created his own
world an upside-down place where everything was the opposite of what was
happening on planet earth.
Bizzaro had super powers like Superman but his
thinking and behavior was as we used to say was “throwed off”. Normal people dealing
with Bizzaro faced a major challenge because Bizzaro presented a reverse,
inside out, upside-down version of everything they were accustomed to. When Superman travelled to Bizzaro World he
had to make major adjustments when he confronted Bizzaro because the situation
was so bizarre.
America in 2025 is very much like
Bizzaro World. We have a president who claims he is for peace yet he supports
wanton genocide and supplies hundreds of billions of dollars worth of weapons
in an ongoing proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, he makes vague threats and
provocative statements against China then backtracks or postpones what he
threatened. He postures and boasts about America prowess when in fact the US is
at a severe disadvantage geostrategically, economically and militarily!
Plus, Trump’s buddy Benjamin Netanyahu
who is waging a unrelenting campaign of ethnic cleansing and genocide against the
people of Gaza who in July launched an illegal and unprovoked attack on Iran that
Trump supported and joined is going to nominate Trump for the Noble Peace Prize!
This is pure Bizzaro World stuff.
Here are a few examples of Trump’s Bizzaro
World antics. Trump claims the US economy is doing great under his watch yet anyone
paying attention to consumer prices knows things are not great, inflation is
still high. Trump wants to replace Jerome Powell the Chairman of the Federal
Reserve Bank because Powell won’t lower interest rates, an act most economists
know will generate continued inflation! Meanwhile Trump says absolutely nothing
about the steadily escalating rise in M2 the US money supply which is the real
cause of inflation! We are being gaslit
on this issue.
Trump claimed he would end the
Ukraine war as soon as he was inaugurated in January. Well, here we are seven
months later and the war is still raging. Trump held a much ballyhooed meeting
with Russian President Vladimir Putin last week promising great results. Prior
to the meeting Trump threatened more sanctions if Putin didn’t agree to his
demands. But the meeting ended quickly with no deals, no resolutions, no ceasefire
nor any concrete prospects for peace. To add insult to injury Putin continued
to pound Ukraine hard before and after his meeting with Trump! So much for Trump’s diplomatic acumen and deal
making.
Next, Trump called a meeting with Zelensky
the president of Ukraine, but Zelensky brought his European supporters who seem
to want the war to continue to the meeting with him! The Europeans and Zelensky
made demands they knew Putin would never accept, thus ensuring the war would go
on. Even comic book creators couldn’t make this stuff up. We are indeed living in
a real live Bizzaro World.

Trump Has Shown Us Who He Really Is
Trump Has
Shown Us Who He Really Is
Junious Ricardo Stanton
Maya
Angelou is reported to have famously said, “When people show you who they are,
believe them the first time.” In this world and in life, everyone shows us who
they are. We all reveal ourselves every day one way or another; whether we are
honorable or vile, whether we are truthful or disingenuous, productive or a
slacker. There is nothing hidden that
will not be revealed, there is nothing done in the shadows that will not come
to the light. By this reckoning Donald J. Trump has revealed to the world, he
is doubleminded, wishy-washy, disingenuous, impetuous, vindictive and unstable.
His admirers say he is playing three-
or four-dimensional chess that his moves are brilliant while his detractors say
he is an imbecile, he’s like a reckless child playing with matches. Donald Trump
has crafted a media persona that depicts him as the consummate deal maker, he’s
the man, a world class wheeler dealer, but his record shows him to be unscrupulous,
a multi-failure businessman who has fenagled more second chances and come backs
than the average guy could ever imagine. Perhaps that is his best strength, he
a survivor.
We will see Trump in rare form this
weekend when he and Vladamir Putin sit down face to face in Alaska to discuss a
myriad of topics which will have a major bearing and implications on world
events. Trump will not be able to bully, browbeat or intimidate Putin who is
well aware of his track record in business and politics.
Putin is no slouch. He is the
former head of the Russia intelligence machinery. He is a world class martial
artist who is sharp and astute. He helped bring Russia back from the abyss of
bankruptcy and corruption. He restored a sense of pride in the Russia people.
Today Russia is a top ranked nation economically and militarily.
Despite the best efforts of the West to undermine
and break Russia, Putin has time and time again thwarted their efforts and come
out victorious. He has weathered the US’s economic sanctions which are economic
warfare, he has survived domestic intrigue and direct threats to Russia’
sovereignty yet both he and Russia have survived, are standing tall and doing
fairly well.
Putin is waging a war against
Ukraine a war he knows the US and its NATO acolytes encouraged, are funding and
supporting with logistics, technology and personnel. Putin is winning the war
and he holds all the cards. NATO is cutting off its nose to spite its face just
to remain America’s lapdog.
Meanwhile Putin is a major player in
the BRICS+ alliance, a consortium of nation’s working to build mutual trade and
commerce partnerships and soon security and military alliances as a powerful
counterbalance to the US/NATO thuggery.
Trump campaigned on a pledge to be
a peace president, he lied. He said he would end the carnage in Ukraine within
days of being sworn in, that hasn’t happened and in many ways his actions are
keeping the conflict going. He said he and Putin would meet and work it out. Yet
in recent days and weeks, Trump has uttered threats against Putin, he has given
ultimatums and pulled them back when he saw he was being ignored when Russian
became even more aggressive against Ukraine.
Putin has stepped up the fighting
and is taking more and more territory in Ukraine and Trump has to as we used to
say lump it. Trump and Dimitry Medvedev the former Russian president and
current Deputy Head of the Russian Security Council (a powerful position) got
into a verbal tit for tat and Trump said he dispatched two nuclear submarines presumably
as a show of force. I bet the Russians are shaking in their shoes.
Leopards don’t change their spots
so don’t expect Trump to tone down the bluster, reign in his ego or stop his
chest pumping and threats. He will be cordial; he will listen but he will not try
to Bogart Putin or demean him like he has other leaders. Trump is a blowhard but
he isn’t a gangster or an idiot. Putin would not tolerate that! Trump has shown
us who he is many times, let’s hope this time he doesn’t get beside himself or
tear his behind.
