America under President Trump

Let me quote from a Globe and Mail piece from yesterday

The liberal case for impeachment, for a quick and extraordinary end to the Trump era, also ignores the reality that the President may well represent the most grotesque face of the Republican Party but not the most insidious. Were he to be removed from power tomorrow, he would be replaced by Mike Pence, an anti-abortion, anti-immigration, anti-LGBTQ conservative who supported the Iraq War – positions broadly in line with the GOP worldview. The notion that Mr. Trump is an abscess on an otherwise morally salvageable Republican body is a fiction, designed primarily to camouflage the discomforting reality that, when it comes to everything from decimating the social safety net to waging perpetual war, the President hinders with buffoonery what his party would otherwise undertake with unfaltering resolve

If we are to believe that Canada's only culture is one made up of several different cultures than there is no real one true Canadian culture at all. We are and have now become a mish-mash of cultures and soon Canada won't know what the hell we are anymore. We can thank the Trudeau's and multiculturalism and massive third world invasion for this mess. Asians and East Asians have no need to assimilate anymore because they now have their own TV, radio, newspapers, churches, business, and community centers and even their own schools. Canada as I once knew it is gone. The once dominant one was the WASP culture but that has been all but eliminated by the liberals.

I take it you are not fond of multiculturalism, or rather the abundance of different kinds of people that currently live in Canada? Correct me if I'm wrong. Tell me, what was Canadian culture prior to the "massive third world invasion"? And I don't ask in an argumentative or condescending way, I ask with genuine interest because I haven't been alive long enough to experience Canada before it was the way it is today. Also, can you define "WASP culture" for me? I know that WASP refers to..basically, white people (White Anglo-Saxon's, right?). Again, I ask because I actually just don't know.

Largely British outside Quebec, but with a more American tinge. Or... largely American outside Quebec, but with a quaint, British tinge. Take your pick. Americans who weren't as religious, as racist, or as wild about guns, and who trusted their government and institutions much more like the British did. Very polite, very obedient to rules and regulations, boring, many would say, self reliant believers in Peace, Order and Good Government. More orderly than the Americans but more enthusiastic and rambunctious than the British. And forever comparing ourselves to others (which we still are). No street gangs, no slums (unless you count the reserves, and no one did) no 'intemperate politics' at any level except for what involved Quebec. Patriotic but not given to outward displays of patriotism. Very honest. Few even cheated on their taxes. You didn't send your kids to school and worry they'd get involved in drugs or anything else. A nice place to grow up and raise a family.

This is just brainless and stupid. If she was a criminal why has Trump not had her investigated and imprisoned? As for liar - there has never been a politician in history who is as much a compulsive liar as Donald J Trump. He sets new standards every day. I honestly don't think he even knows or cares about what he says. He makes stuff up all the time and just dismisses anyone pointing out it's bullshit as 'fake news'.

Which, ironically, is a term coined to describe the pro-Trump and ant-Clinton propaganda his Russian friends put out.

Billy Bob did not go to jail for all the lying and stealing and crookedness that went on while he was the president. No doubt Hillary's elite backers have made a deal with Trump to not jail the lying crook. Pretty much all politicians are nothing more than a bunch of compulsive liars. Surely you can come up with another few lying politicians like you say Trump is? Go ahead, name some? If you can pick on Trump than you can probably can give us some other names of other politicians because it seems like you know a lot about Trump? So, who else do you know of? Over.

I would rather have Russia as a friend than Israel. Israel is no friend to anyone.

So you're saying that Trump's bitching and complaining are all lies and that he's actually made a deal with her 'elite backers'? Wouldn't those be uhm, 'the swamp'? You know, those wall street bankster types? Like the ones from Goldman Sachs that he brought into his cabinet? He's made a deal with the swamp? And he's your hero?

No, they really aren't. I've never met a politician I had much respect for but while they will avoid telling the truth if it causes them any political damage they don't generally tell bald-faced lies to the media - not if there's any chance they can be caught anyway.

If I had a nickel for every time someone said that, I would be a multi-millionaire. It seems the Republican voters traded their morals and ambitions for sensible government in order to piss others off.

2008? You mean the year that Harper broke his own election rule and called an early election before his disaster finances became public? The year that Harper first prorogued Parliament for his own partisan reasons.

Yes, it does appear that Democrats do have a sense of morals, unlike their Republican counterparts that don't care how many children their candidates sexually assault.

I grew up in Quebec, WASP was not the dominant culture here. There were many waves of immigrants, but they were not all WASP. Before the second world war we had a lot from Eastern Europe (Russians, Polish and Ukrainians), Western Europe and Scandinavia. After the second world war we had many from Western Europe (Germany and the Netherlands) and Southern Europe (Italy, Greece, Yugoslavia and Portugal).

And I could be a multi-millionaire also. Dam, why didn't I start keeping score?

Well, if you grew up in Quebec in the early days of the founding of Canada you would know that Quebec and Canada was a WASP nation in the beginning. Today it is any and everything but a WASP nation thanks to the Trudeau's who screwed that all up. Now we don't know anymore as to who is the dominant culture with all those different cultures, religions, traditions and languages that are and have been brought into this country for the past several decades now. Canada is not the old Canada anymore. It is the world thanks to our open because of the liberal border gates being opened wide and for all the world to walk right on in. Liberalism? #$%^&*(> .

I get the impression you haven't traveled much? I have a stack of 8 expire passports in my desk drawer. I'll send you a scan of page or 2 of foreign entry stamps.

What did you do? Stamp them all with your own made up passport stamp? A scan will prove nothing.

Did you work for the CIA or Mossad to be able to do all that so-called travelling that you say you did?

I have got to the point that you are just all full of it. Just saying.

I can only say that I am not privy to the reason why Trump has not nailed her azz yet. Many of his followers want her jailed. There very well could have been some deal made in the backroom. I guess that only time will tell as to what will happen to her if anything does happen to her.

I will still say that Trump is my "hero" and I will stick by him until people like you can stick something on Trump. So far, you have not shown or proven anything yet, right? Of course your investigation is still on going, and you will get back to me as soon as your investigation is over, and you finally have nailed Trump on something, eh? Keep me informed will you?

America and Israel have shown that they are nobody's friend either. They have done many bad things against countries that they once called their friend. Saddam was at one time their friend until he did something that pizzed them off. Then he became their enemy, and got rid of him.

Israel and America are both full of corrupt banksters with nuclear weapons. So, what's your point? At least Russia is not invading countries. Anything else?

When I travel I have to travel in the sardine section of the plane. Any good spy stories that you can tell us about? Do you know anything about the Kennedy assassination or is it still top secret? Just asking.

Sardine class sometimes, business class others. One of my favourites was Emirates SFO-Dubai. Long flight but they take pretty good care of you up front.

Lee Harvey Oswald is your man.

Just don't try to repeat over and over again and make to much fun of Weinstein, Conyers, Cosby or Franken. That will no doubt be a no-no, and may get you into trouble and get called a racist with the liberal establishment. Trump is an easy target because he is just a white conservative straight guy, and doesn't kiss the azzes of the liberal/democrat establishment, right?

C'mon, stop playing the CIA lying game. There is no way Oswald killed Kennedy. The videos show us all that it was impossible for Oswald to have shot Kennedy. But now I am getting off topic.

Just to update you, the Liberals fired Franken for alleged sexual misconduct. Trump is supporting Moore, (both are alleged sexual assaulters/offenders) which is one thing that makes him such a target. See the difference?

I am pretty sure that Weinstein and Conyer's and Cosby can have just as many jokes made of them as Trump and Moore get all the time. It is all just about liberal pick and choose, and Trump ends up on the firing line because he is not one of those liberal snowflake SNL scum bags. And you would like to work for them? How low will you stoop to try and get a laugh? You are deplorable.

Franken admitted he sexually touched a woman inappropriately where only alleged incidents have been made against Trump and Moore. A big difference. But get back to me when your investigation is done on Trump and Moore will you, and the facts are in that Trump and Moore are guilty? What is taking you so long? Need more money? Go get some from the CIA to get the job finished, will you? This should have been completed months ago. Geech.

Trump will not get fired and Moore will win the election. The last poll taken was that Moore was ahead by fifteen points. It looks like the banksters choice is about to loose the election. The people appear to not like that Jones feller. The people appear to not want another swampster in Washington. Keeping the money makes you look just as bad as the CIA. Shocking indeed.

The last poll I saw a few hours ago has Jones ahead by 10. You think it's "shocking" to keep your paycheque? What's wrong with you?

Nope, it was WFC (White French Catholic). The early explorers like Jacques Cartier and Samuel de Champlain were the only ones that went up the St. Lawrence, and the early settlers were the Jesuit missionaries. While there was a later significant WASP settlement in the Hochelaga (Montreal), it was still predominantly native and WFC.

I wonder why in Quebec the WASP were the ones in power and running the province of Quebec for decades and not the french? Next you are going to probably try and tell me that the french won the Battle on the plains of Abraham, eh?

I guess that the only poll that will count is the one taken after the election is over. I guess that one of us will be gloating tomorrow night after the votes are counted. Will it be you or will it be me? Exciting, isn't it?
