you know you are old when you watched reruns of The Amos and Andy show on televsion as a child
That ain’t old! Although when you watched the3 original on TV might be. They haven’t matched Playhouse 90 and Fireside Theatre for quality since.
TDS Trump Derangement Syndrome is now DTS – Deranged Tump Syndromes , keeping up with the times.
Old angry men are certainly not balanced and rational, and certainly should be removed from positions of power. Failure to do so has profound consequences.YMMV
Brought forward:
@ V. Arnold
Thanks for the comment,I would consider the last worthy occupant to be Franklin D. Roosevelt whose 4 terms had no visible hand-basket of his economic state, a los wee Willie Clinton and harridan wannabe. Roosevelt’s ‘New Deal’ basically ended with L.B. Johnson’s exit from politics which he was penultimate master of (Tip O’Neil being the last to moderate Ronnie Ray-gun’s political and economic delusions – YMMV). Risking sounding like someone old, the country has gone to hell in a hand-basket since.
All the best…

Reference the White House redo:
The current occupant of the White House (WH) needs to know his place. The WH is the house of the American (U.S.) people for their president, NOT the cottage of some petty oligarch . If the current occupant cannot respect the history of, the house, the occupants before him, or the structure of the building, he should not be there. That respect was best displayed when Jacqueline Kennedy gave her tour of the WH for the public. If that respect cannot be shown, you do not belong in that house. Whatever are those golden things doing on the fireplace surround; they have no relevance to the house, its history or of the nation. They are fitting for only the palaces of autocratic monarchs. Your sense of taste is insipid and inane, but then you have never created anything, you hired architects, designers and gardeners who did the creating; you are an impresario, an Ed Sullivan NOT The Beatles. Know your place.
RIM,
I don’t know if you encountered this link at MoA the other day. An alternative analysis of the calculation of Trump’s tariff schedule, described as economically illiterate. My reading is exactly that. The link:

Sort of reminds of Samson at the temple, the place is coming down.
YMMV but invest in popcorn.Thanks All yesterday. Deeply appreciated. Magical day, a four hour lunch with friends in a slow food Michelin type restaurant, lively conversation of people talking with each other over marvellous food and the perfect beginning of orbit 83. Your comments all added to the day’s memory.
In responding, I tend to reflect the nature of the stimulus driving the reply. Like a mirror, I try not investing into emotional capital of the reply. It’s there it’s done, am moving on sort of thing. Apologies are observed but not needed; Thanks all the same. All the best …

Thank you for taking your time and effort in this response, much of which I basically agree. The burr under the saddle: I attempt to write clearly, concisely and accurately to give a specific focus to my remarks., the intent being the focus. When those remarks are dissected and whatever mental noise going on in the head of the interlocutor changes that focus; renders that focus on unintended tangents or assumes positions never in existence. The final remark of mine you highlighted was solely focused on the future perceived of this Trump administration, nothing to do with the prior occupant of the White House who I have less than no regard (the bastard is 90 days older than me and if that is in my future I’m terrified). I attribute reading comprehension, critical thinking and faulty analysis to these happenings. I’n not paid sufficiently to educate such deficits and do not engage often at such sites. Ageing macular degeneration makes writing and editing a time consuming task. Any way, this is to acknowledge your remarks.
Today begins my 83rd orbitFebruary 17, 2025 at 2:44 pm#182434
If someone wants to edit, twist, modify or in any other way change something I have written to expound their ideas in a way that I have not written or intended it is not only offensive but acts to place my words in a light that may be unfavourable or damaging to my reputation. Is that above your level of understanding? If you cannot write for yourself then start cutting and pasting from the internet. Do not mess with what I write. How many died in Syria under Trump 45, how much oil was stolen, how much grain was taken from Syrian bakers. Were any Israeli airstrikes halted in that administration. I do not expect Trump 47 to be different, you obviously may.
As reply to comment 16/02/2025:
February 16, 2025 at 11:39 pm#182398ReplyCitizenX,
Is it a reading disorder that provides you with that response? Only Donald J. Trump was ever indicated in my comment. How do you go from there to presidential pathologies. You must live in LaLaLand,U.S.A. under fair and equal rules to think your depiction of the first unelected occupant of the white House as my choice; I was only referring to Trump., pointing out another delusion of your writing. . What are you trying to prove?
Your shrieking accusations of my political support are gratuitous nonsense based on no factual information in your possession; a statement of jejune maturity of kindergarten level. How long into your adulthood has this condition persisted? The prior administration stopped munitions supply to Israel, the golden Gollum opened the floodgates without any evidence that restraint will be shown, in Gaza, in Lebanon, in Syria, or any where else. To believe mass murders will not ensue marks the believer as a grand fool.
The rest of your comment consists of garbage generated by one who’s horizons match a well digger at bottom of his task – basically non-existent. You qualify as an ass, do take remedial reading comprehension.I tend not to suffer fools graciously. Avoid reply through careful consideration and analysis of what was said and make your reply commensurate. Don’t ever put in words that were not there, it is a simple courtesy.
Donald J. Trump:
Donald J. Trump is the source of TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome, sending Democrats insane.
Donald J. Trump has his own TDS – Trump Deranged Syndrome. Donald J. Trump is a very, very, very angry man, winning three elections and only serving two and being shot at along the way. Trump’s anger is a rage seen on his face, a total rage, an unbalanced rage, an uncontrolled rage, a very, very, very dqngerous rage. Evidence is clearly found in Donald J. Trump’s “buying the Gaza” (no sellers), evacuating the population (Crime against Humanity – Ethnic Cleansing) and the war crime resupplying military ordinance to further devastate not only Gaza, but Lebanon, Syria, Iran and other unlisted sovereign states in the region in resistance to the Zionist/Israeli death cabal.
Donald J. Trump’s legacy shall be massive death, nothing more, nothing less.
The U.N. General Assembly, the I.C. C., the I.C.J. , ALL must demand an immediateCensus of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem to establish Palestinian populations in those areas currently existing. Istael has no standing to object. The constant churning of the population of Gaza erased all information of numbers there. That must be firmly reestablished immediately. The decrease from pre-extermination will be the genocide quotient Israel is accountable for. Failure to do this adds others to the responsibility for genocide.
Bill Gates could be made into Soylent Green.
Wouldn’t that be nice.
Put an oligarch on ice.
Bill would be never heard, and seldom seen.It’s here – the Solstice,
things will be getting brighter for a while until they aren’t.
All the best for the holiday season.Congratulations, the illegal occupant of the White House has gone and let lose the missiles of war. What ever makes that old dullard think the Russian President Vladimir Putin’s words have no weight when he stated long range OTAN/NATO missiles landing in Russia would be considered a declaration of war by OTAN/NATO countries and appropriate response would ensue. The U.S. public must demand the immediate application of the 25th Amendment to remove Biden and make Harris the first ersatz woman President and remove that from Killery Klinton’s grasp, forever unfulfilled (Cosmic karma for “We came, we saw, he died” harridan-speak).
Normally a short period beginning during a political convention and lasting a short week or so after a polling ‘spike’ in popularity is observed. To extend that polling is nothing other than a succubus induced wet-dream, nothing more. However, given the reduced mental state of the duh-merican public, exceptions should not be surprising given the billions spent on political propaganda used to create approximately equal voting masses that enable election counting corruption. Go Brandon was the first unelected occupant of the White House in U.S. history.. The Republic is a faintly recalled memory now, the tree of liberty died in an extended drought, a dearth of aware patriots with intact memories of their history. Just the way it is in the age of i(diot)phones.
Ouroboros
Recall one of the objectives of the SMO was denazification of Ukraine. Ukraine’s ‘top troupes’ are there, the nazi ones, appearing as terrorists that side of the border; can you say g’by Geneva Conventions? However, the discipline of Russian troupes will likely prevent wanton slaughter of those surrendering; just not to be like their opponents.
In general,
It will be interesting watching the libels and slanders those gold-buggers do to fiat currency aimed at destroying currency itself. Does fit in nicely with bankster design to seize control and extract fees from all economic transactions (as done through credit cards digitally now). Only a fool would believe that this extraction does not increase the price of their purchases. The Gods must have loved fools, , there are so many of them.
Oxymoron (above),
Also in reaction to the *X* also above, These arguments usually fail when the economic fact of monopsony is accounted for,; something ‘overlooked’ in MBA Econ 101 where the buyer controls the market rather than the seller, the result is little different but then you can figure it out, the result that is.

*sigh* back at ya,
When ever the xy chromosomes are present it is male. Very, very rarely both xx and xy do present IIRC, that being a different case and few if any become boxers. at Olympics. Most are assigned one or the other at birth, again xy retains the genetic makeup of male. The psychologic makeup of a person is sometimes independent of their genetic makeup and that in no way makes an xy a female athlete. Profound ignorance of life itself has led to these absurdities. Go follow that pied piper if you wish but the advice to keep your feelings to yourself, the path will be smoother for you.
No ‘solid’ way to distinguish a man from a woman – IOC chief
A headline from RT
It is time to call the end of the IOC and the Olympics if that level of knowledge is being demonstrated. NO male is born with a vagina NOR any female born with a penis, NO MATTER WHAT SOME MAY BELIEVE.
I see NYT had a polling wet dream re Harris – Trump poll. What block of NYC did that orgasm occur? Are the bed-clothes in the laundry yet? How often does this event occur and is it on a regular basis? Is the NYT on some medication effecting cognitive functions? Inquiring minds wish to know.
Do any others have the feeling what is being witnessed is a tryout of a plot line for a Hollywood low budget ‘B’ movie sequel to “The Manchurian Candidate” as a spoof?
No incumBENT democrat should be returned to either Congress or the executive as they have shown beyond reason they are incapable of serving the public interest. The Republicans are not significantly better. You get what you vote for, sometimes doubled.
NO vote here for Donald J. Trump. As president he moved the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. He also gave Israel the Golan Heights. Every language ever spoken in the world has a word for those who take what is not theirs to take and that word will suffice to name. The office deserves better than that.
A WH photographer caught a bullet passing President Trump’s head. Notice where the hand is and consider reaction times. Five shots fired; 1 killing, 2 wounding, 1 grazing the ear; is this that or the one Trump heard wizzing by before he felt his ear? Where did the other slug embed?
From RT:
Biden doesn’t suffer from dementia – White House
Then it must be Bovine spongiform encephalopathy, exactly what is expected from a professional lying bullshitter, aka politician at national levels.
Which WH spoks.lier put that pile out for public consumption? There are great stables to be cleaned and not a Hercules about when needed.
Let me guess the vote for the election 2024:
Trump <= 105.6 millions
Biden <= 114.8 millions
once all the votes from troops serving in: Ukraine, Taiwan, Gaza and other yet to be declared war zones are counted. (/s)
Nice photo (shopped) of Brandon there Oroboros. The body double used has no wrinkles about the eyes and is 90 days older than I, and I still have 90% colour of my hair and 90% of my hair. Brandon os a terrorist, if that is in my future – I AM terrorised.
The United States is facing a severe existential crisis as serious as that period leading to the opening of its Civil War costing some million + casualties in a much smaller population. Like then, the nation was divided irreconcilably , unable to conduct conversation with the other, unable to negotiate some mutually agreeable resolution with a population only moderately more educated than today (illiteracy about equal, effective illiteracy then much smaller per population). They, then, could not self correct and warfare was the result. Today, having considerably more experience as reserve resource, have lost the run of ourselves through indolence, indifference, ignorance and distraction, few having the horizons needed to adequately marshal the mental resources to act as citizens of a Republic having universal suffrage. We have lost the arts and skills of communicating with the other; we speak at, not with; the ability to listen is a rarity.
Those who pretend to lead may be the cream of public ability to communicate and also show the hollowness of the public intellect; a Potemkin village of public propriety and ethics hiding vast corruption camouflaged by lies hidden in secrets of national security. Lincoln reminded that a house divided against itself cannot …, as well as houses built on the shifting sands of lies will not endure. There is an obvious conclusion; it is tipping point time, a decision must be arrive at, whether to find oneself on the right side of history or find oneself bypassed by history. It will be quite helpful to have an inkling of history to navigate with. Tat is another missing asset for survival, lost to revisionism. YMMDEvery elected federal office holder holding the responsibility to initiate Art. 25 of the constitution and failed to do so quite some time back should be voted out of office and let another who might understand their sworn oath to that constitution assume that office. This goes for both parties and all independents as well.
This generation of politicians has destroyed the constitution and the government it forms. An example of mass high treason. Destroy bipolar party politics; accept no less than five viable national parties minimum.
Duhmericans, pull your heads out ….Has any one thought what the world is witnessing in the decline of the U.S. president is the effects of an unknown number of Covid-19 shots?
To V.A. at #160291
Indeed, sad; but very dangerous as well……..
A rabid beast can do much damage in it’s death throws……..There is that. There are those who have mastered Sun Tzu also about, in place who know themselves as they know their enemies – capable of 1,000 battles without loss.
By the by, thanks for recommend of smoothie X… some time back. And cheers
Portavoz is Spanish for spokesman (aka spokesperson).
Portapotty is Washington ‘s equivalent as both are designed to contain the same matter.
Washington has collected the finest assembly money can buy:
the much less than admirable John Kirby,
and the clone Matthew Miller,
the wannabe (something) Patel,
and a mop headed floozy whose name is forgettable and I have.
All dancing in the light of a setting sun on the Republic.

Perchance would that feeling be because most of traditional media only reports on issues of little consequence, geared to the limited attention span, and have gained little trust at that; where the alternative media, although capable of enlightening, is filled with dross and does not carry the gravitas or authority expected of sources. Also the range of trustworthy traditional media had moved ‘off-shore’ to a very limited resource, mostly found outside the ‘Empire and its sycophantic allies’, mostly now found in Russia and having a differing schedule of importance requiring attention. We have entered the era of the ijet (sometimes spelled eejit {idiot}). Does this help your search?
At V. A. @ 158535 (some serious scrolling above),
Yes, the children will continue with their games until … , and there will be a response. About the only one that stops them will be a few missiles into the glass palace headquarters of OTAN/NATO, dusting the bottles in its deepest bodega (wine cellar) and fluffing the pillows in its deepest recesses where generals practice their observances of necrolatry (and maybe a few more to bounce the shards a couple three times), informing the collective west that Russia is not at war with any country; Who would like to be first? Keeping in mind any country possessing or allowing nuclear weapons on their territory will be considered nuclear armed and will be dealt with accordingly, those abjuring those weapons will be recognised in any response. Only such reaction may be the only way for the leadership of the collective west to cop on to the seriousness of the situation (but is not a guarantee). Thankfully sane heads in Russia will prevail at the end of that day.
