TRUMP - Some people think......... How do you feel?

Welcome to Wondercafe2!

A community where we discuss, share, and have some fun together. Join today and become a part of it!

Here is a very interesting article. I saw the author on TV tonight. He brings an excellent perspective.

the illness he is

"The Trump era is possible only because so many people have been so fooled by fake strength. But now here was a sign of some seeing the light."
 
Steroids are hormones derived from urine ... these may leave someone Pz'd so bad they are temporarily energized ... I speak with experience having dealt with them for about 3 months in diminishing dosages!

Does Trump appear Pz'd at the world? Thus the Freudian Death Wish!
 
Agreed, but.

I suspect that King Herod had more real power than Drumpf, who appears to be a puppet of a multitude of masters.
You may be right on this. I have in mind the character of these two persons. Each was/is, from my point of view, a self-serving scoundrel.
 
This story says Trump was gasping for air before his photo op, on the balcony. had just walked off the helicopter, down the steps - with his mask on then he walked down a gauntlet of several cameras snapping. Then he walked up a large winding flight of stairs to the balcony. Almost anyone but an athlete might be slightly winded from that. He took off his mask once he got to his spot. He, subtlety, appeared to me to be taking a few deep breaths, maybe he did a few breathing exercises. It was subtle. He didn't appear to be gasping. He didn't cough once. I don't like that the media is looking for the slightest sign of a problem, then making a mountain out of a molehill. This isn't a story. I don't like Trump, he has some real problems, but this isn't newsworthy.

 
Our RTs train people in various exercises they can practice to help when they are having problems. Perhaps he was given some of those techniques in hospital.
True. Or maybe that's what he does to get grounded after walking up lots of stairs. He's overweight, out of shape. Lots of people would be more winded and even breathing heavy/ fast. He just took a few slow, subtle, deep breaths.
 
Trump offers a clear example of our failed democracy. He is much like king Herod.
WC2 offers a clear example of our failed democracy just as well.

My thread entitled "Let us think for ourselves and let us remain democrats" ... was met with this council censorship:
This is part and parcel of conspiracy theories. It belongs in the one thread devoted to such. Please be advised that any attempts to start further threads on the same generalized topic will be dealt with as violations of the Code.

So Frankly George ... as this post will probably be deleted before you can read it ...

Nothing to see here folks ... the Ban-ality of Evil conspiracy theory is that the great evils in history generally, and crimes against humanity in particular, were not executed by fanatics or sociopaths , but by ordinary people who accepted the premises of their state and therefore participated with the view that their actions were normal .

There is an appropriate place to discuss and argue mod decisions and this thread is not it. Please start a thread in WC2 News & Business as requested in my announcement. I shall leave this one here but do not continue the discussion further in this thread.

Hi...

You may have noticed that very few persons respond to my posts. Not sure why. Suspect some do not like my position regarding the failure of democracy and the rise of corporate tyranny. In this I am encouraged by ancient and modern thinkers. These too were resisted and refused by the governing politicians and the populations conformed to their patterns of control.

For me the Cafe offers opportunity for the practice of language. I simply state my present perspective and have abandoned the struggle of right and wrong. You have probably noticed that I rarely support my thinking by appeal to the thinking of others. Rather I am a seeker of truth, which I do not possess. It beckons me and by faith I follow in its way.

One of my insights makes clear that few in the Cafe, as in the general population, want to know what is now unfolding. Carl Jung speaks of populations repressing their instinctual being. This repression produces what Jung calls “mass neurosis“; a psychological deterioration of human well being producing the ‘madness’ now in play.

It took me many years to grow into my maturity. The basic transition has been from anger to sorrow. How I wish folk would admit where the seductions of power have brought us - to the brink of catastrophe.

Maybe take a break for a bit. It always helps me to step away when conflict emerges and grows.
Peace be with you and yours...

George
 
George, I have always appreciated hearing your point of view - when we were in the same presbetry and then on WC and now on WC2. I don't often post replies any more, due to comunication difficulities, but I always look for your posts' I will miss you ifwhile you stap back and await your return.

Yes, rest and immerse yourself in whatever nourishes you and renews your spirit. Please know I read most of what you post and find it always an inspiration. I believe you to be an exemplar of the teachings of Christ.
 
Back to Trump.....seems that he used to own shares of Regeneron as well as Gilead Sciences (according to his previous recent income tax).....who happen to make the drug cocktail the President took.....hmmmm.
Well wasn't that good advertising?

 
George, I appreciated a lot of what you posted. I just did not have any worthwhile comments to add to most of them. I am not as pessimistic as you are as I have been fortunate over the years of knowing many individuals from several countries but mostly from Canada who are working in their sectors to work for justice and real democracy. One friend went into law specifically to work on social justice. One organized community development projects in Bolivia. I knew a couple from Chile while going to seminary. They were working in Masters degrees at Dalhousie and were among the many who fled Chile when Pinochet took control. There were the teachers in Educators for Peace and many others along the way. The billionaires and their lackeys are hard at work behind the scenes manipulating politicians and civil servants but there is a widespread, mostly out of the media view, diverse movement at work, building relationships, gathering and analyzing information, and working on thousands of small projects capable of multiplying. I am not naive about the power and ruthlessness of the billionaires and their lackeys, but their over-confidence could set the stage for a real revolution
 
I think it is relevant to note that Trump seems to be gasping for breath. neck muscles don’t usually come Into play while breathing

the odder issue is when was he infected. If it was Thursday , he should be isolating until next Sunday. Or was he infected before they admitted it by then Who is at risk

the issue for pence is he sat in front of someone who now has Covid 19. Yet is still campaigning and about to debate. But he should also be isolating

these people just dont seem to get how the virus transmits
