Ten Observations Over The Assassination Attempt On Trump

 1. Every inch of a 1,000 ft circle around a Secret Service 'protected' person should under the control of the Secret Service.  So to allow a dimwit to crawl up on a roof within 300-odd ft?  Either they (the S/S) are absolutely incompetent or it was planned this way.

I don't buy into the idea that it just happened. 

2.  By the grace of God....with Trump stepping left and right on his balance and using a good 2-foot of distance....is the only reason he's alive today.

3.  This loser-shooter?  Gamer?  Yep.  

I suspect as they check his social media.....he had several 'friends' who were likely Antifa-minded and severely anti-Trump.  

His medication?  Eventually.....someone is going to review prescriptions for the past dozen years and find two or three medications that might have influenced stupid behavior.

At some point, the S/S and the FBI will argue over this matter....that Antifa is a serious threat to the safety of the nation, period.  You can take a guess over what position the FBI will  take.

4.  This director of the S/S will be dragged in front of a Senate committee this week. Her background and failures will be discussed.

My humble  view is that she will survive the week but hand in her resignation....to be dated the week after the election.  

You might as well figure that another five to ten 'top-managers' within the S/S will be gone by the end of 2024.

5.  RFK Jr to finally get his protection?  Yeah, that will be the big deal of the week.  

6.  All this incitement behavior by news and social media?  It's going to be noticed now, and the audience is going to turn and get fairly angry over this.

You could see gradual build-ups every year....from 2004 to today.  

7.   Resetting the election?  Well...there's an entirely different view of things at this point, and I would suggest that Biden lost his position.  Even flipping to Newsom...probably won't help much.

8.  Going into Milwaukee this week, with planned protests and Antifa-action?  No one from the S/S or FBI is going to goof off.  So if you were really stupid....you will be detained, held, and charged-up.  

Just a wild guess....a thousand people minimum will test the system, and find that security ramped up.

9.  This whole thing having a Sirhan-Sirhan/Oswald resemblance?  Well....not greatly....but him having a AZ-platted van, pipe-bombs....just begs questions. 

10.  Finally, just an odd feeling....for 99-percent of folks  who've been shot at....wounded or grazed....when they get up, they are in a weakened or stressed out state of mind.

Trump gets up.....S/S people all around...trying to lug him off the stage, and he's got his fists raised....saying 'fight, fight'.  

His years with the wrestling folks? It's paying off at this moment. ONLY one-percent of people could react this way.  

Yeah, About That Guest

 So I read through a social media comment yesterday and it's been on my mind.

This guy (I assume he's 40) is married, and has 3 kids.  One of the kids is college age...the others are like 10 and 13.  Let's call him 'Bob'.

Marty (his college kid son) has come home for the summer period and brought his girlfriend...who apparently can't go to her home because of parent problems.  

'Bob' (the dad) is approached by the son a day or two into the stay.  Bob has no problem with the girlfriend staying....even sleeping in the same bed as Marty.  

But Marty has come to speak to mom and dad.

The girlfriend (we're name her Lyra)....has 3 problems.

First, Lyra is a vegan and she wants to observe her normal diet, and while visiting....she wants them (Bob and his wife....with the two other kids) to also try to practice this diet.

Second, Lyra had a home-life that was difficult...because both her parents were heavy drinkers.  Apparently Bob enjoys a beer or two after work.  So Lyra says either he drinks in private (I guess the garage) or out of view of her.

Third, Bob is a hunter and has a few wall trophies.  They don't see what type....just that Lyra wants them taken down while visiting.

The son's chat with dad doesn't go well.

I pondered over this meeting and Lyra.

I'm retired Air Force and probably had over two dozen people I worked with in my life....who had this type of event occur.  One mother-in-law story involved a guy I worked with....who smoked 1.5 packs of smokes a day, and preferred to smoke inside the house....which my co-work had an ironclad rule....if you smoke, you do on the patio.

I had another co-worker who had a out-of-work cousin come to visit....who objected to any form of cursing in the house (both my co-worker and her husband were the type to utter profanity at least ten times an hour each).  

Me?  I'm a nice guy about guests....I'm willing to offer up premium coffee, premium water, and premium beer. As long as there is an established arrival date and establish leave date....I'm pretty flexible.  If you need to do some prayers or get a few minutes of personal time in the toilet....fine.  I'm even willing to spend extra to buy the 5-star toilet paper.

Asking me to accept vegan stuff?  No....it just ain't going to happen.  The beer thing?  I might be willing to drink a beer on the patio.

My real problem is that once you find that I might bend on a request or two....will you be coming back tomorrow to ask for more things?  

I felt sorry for Bob and the wife, and even the two younger kids.  The son with the vegan girlfriend?  I'm pretty sure this relationship is doomed.....although I wouldn't be that blunt with the son over this.

Rumor BS On Trump Agenda-25

 1.  Trump will apparently make it illegal to shift from 2nd gear to 3rd gear....saying you can only shift to 4th gear.  

2.  Trump will force Jeep to reduce metal content in the vehicle by 40-percent...thus eliminating safety items and making it affordable once again at $25,000.  Included in the new order....deletion of the horn, and light-signals (meaning you go back to using your arm to indicate turning).  

3.  Trump intends to revitalize M-TV and bring energy back to the lame network.

4.  Trump intends to lower educational standards....so you can be finished with high-school by the 9th grade.

5.  Trump will force the NFL to add a 12th player onto the field....to improve employment in America.

6.  Trump intends to bring Stormy to a cabinet-level position.

7.  Trump will institute a $11 tax on all banjos sold in America.

8.  Trump will release the seven aliens (non-humans), and make them US citizens.

9.  Trump intends to order NBC to bring back ALF.

10.  Trump will deport all non-Americans back to their home-country....if they say the US is a sh**-hole.  

Q-and-A

 1.  Is Biden finished?

First, campaign money has dropped dramatically in the past two weeks.  At the rate of 'burn'....I'd say he has about 30 days of money before it's a serious issue.  What you will see by the end of next week.....a couple of key campaign folks will exit.   

The chief thing you should reflect upon....does he just exit the race, or go full-throttle....exiting the Presidency as well....admitting dementia is a full-time problem.

2.  Selling VP Harris as a easy deal to accept?

Well....you start an interview and she starts giggling and saying BS stuff....hurts the image.  

3.  All this effort needed to prevent non-citizens from voting?

Well....if you explain the idea that a Texas-state vote situation should only involve US citizens living in Texas....you would think that 100-percent of people would agree, and that's simply not the case.  I would imagine it's near 30-percent of people who believe anyone...even a Russian guy who arrived last week....should be able to vote.  

The problem here....in a black community, this issue is going to turn a lot of people hostile....thinking that non-citizens have status.

4.  Bank of America study done.....half of Gen-Z 'kids' are requiring some type of financial assistance from the parents to 'survive'?

Well....yeah, they said this.  They weren't that clear about how much, or what 'survive' really meant.

Course, if the kid was an idiot (with a degree) and bought a $75,000 car with a $1,200 monthly car-loan....yeah, I could see this.

All of this dragging the parents to financial problems later as well?  Yep, that's what I would figure.

5.  CNN in the past month getting weird?

Well...from the five or six occasions that I've watched them...they went to a absolute neutral view on politics.  Rather shocking, I will admit.

Note, this week....CNN said they are letting another 3-percent of employees go....can't afford them.

Seven Things

 1.  Either you have rights, or you have permissions.  Just remember.....they aren't the same thing.

2.  If there is no price to be paid for making bad decisions....there's no incentive to make good decisions. 

3.  If you asked people back in the 1980s if they had a rock-hard opinion on something....it probably never went above a dozen things you felt this way on.  Today?  You probably have an rock-hard opinion on 300 things.

4.  If you felt OK on dropping your vote in a envelop at a unattended box-situation....would it matter if the unattended box was next to a Burger King or topless bar?  And if that bothers you....why would you say it's fine in some parking lot next to a post office?

5. I had the term  'cattywampus' come up yesterday.

So this was a invented word in the early 1800s of the US....mostly in  the south, and it meant something that wasn't right.  So you could refer to the way something was built, or a person acting stupid, or a legal process that was meant to fail.

6.  If you asked how many people can handle social media (like FB, or Twitter)....I'd say fewer than two-thirds have the maturity-level for social media.

7.   Just for the record.....9th century Chinese monks are the ones who accidentally discovered gunpowder.

Humble Observations

 1.  I think the insider group to the White House (not Joe Biden's team) felt that they'd get Joe up to a point.....have him dump Harris as VP, and somehow emerge into the election....win, and have Joe retired in spring of 2025, with their pick as the new President.

Plan A has failed, and we are in some weird run.....where five or six groups are trying to plan the replace-Joe game....each with an agenda.

2.  Just a suspicion....I think within 2 weeks.....campaign money flowing  into Joe's effort will halt completely.  That will be the master-off-switch to halt the campaign.

3.  Man, bird-flu is talked about almost hourly now on the news.

4.  I have a suspicion that some polling group tested Newsom versus Trump and discovered that Newsom can't win.

Same polling group tested probably five others.....finding they were in the same mess.

5.  Remember that US military aid pier in Gaza?   You know....the one costing $230 million?  Well...it's set to be 'permanently dismantled', after 21 days of actual use.  Total failure.

6. Just crazy....there's probably over 20-million Americans who are pro-dementia now, and want Senators, Congressmen, Governors and Presidents to have dementia.

Ten Predictions

 1.  From now until mid-August....Joe Biden's campaign-fund gathering will be mostly flat, and this will be the true test for the Convention (where he will be dumped). Anyone's guess who is brought in (I'm still thinking Jamie Dimon is possible).

2  I will predict by late July....at least three key Biden-campaign figures quit.

3.  Hamas-Israel 'war' if Trump wins?  I'll predict that Hamas goes into a crisis stage....asking for someone to lead them to a end-point .

4.  At least one state by the end of 2025, will have a law on the books to prevent private citizens from flying a US flag on their porch....to prevent people from getting 'triggered'.

5.  Polling at the end of 2025 will indicate that one American in one-hundred is consumed about wearing masks, and  spends at least $500 a year on their 'fetish'.

6.  Some university study will come out in 2025 to reveal, after a 12-hour flight....you officially need seven days to recover from jet-lag.  

7.  The most stupid thing that Putin could achieve in his 'war'.....is to kill off 1-million young/middle-age men, and chase 2-million men out of the country permanently.  The Russian landscape in 30 years?  Probably a population drop of 30-percent.  

8.  You will come to realize whatever bank you do business with in 2025....virtually everything you do has a 'fee' attached, and they will offer you a 'all-in-one' fee of $300....which half of us probably will be forced to take.

9.  Charles Barkley runs for Alabama governor in 2026, and wins.

10.  TikTok users advance to a new trend.....throwing lawn-darts at each other, and wounding a hundred juveniles a week with the 'game'.
