Boiling Populations

I see random reports of events, and wonder what really happened. Did someone finally have too much? How many more “events” are there that we miss amidst the information overload?

The only reason things haven't exploded? Donald J. Trump.

Trump gives people hope that this can be resolved without civil war. But that hope, that patience, is not infinite.

Is Trump the real deal? Is his role to give false hope while the tightening of the noose around the world is completed? Or is it to awaken the frogs and guide them to recognizing the seriousness of their predicament before they boil? So that lessons will be deeply ingrained, and future generations will never again, as John Philpot Curran and Andrew Jackson warned, lose sight of the crucial need for eternal vigilance.

Three of the most important words when it comes to trying to figure it all out are: I Don't Know.

It's not my first rodeo, or more to the point, not my first time watching the magicians. I started with the Vietnam War, then began to immerse myself in 1972, wondering how America could pick Nixon over McGovern. Since then, my opinion of Nixon has improved (taking on some of the alphabets), and declined as to McGovern (endorsing GMOs).

Freddie Mercury asked:
“Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?”


So much of the “debate” over Trump comes from beliefs, preconceptions, and molding by the magpie media. Factoids mixed with fiction, notsomuch from facts with context. As the Late John Judge observed, “The American people are allowed to believe whatever they want, but not to know”.

We may not know, but we need to prepare. Perhaps The Second Coming Of Trump will work out. But have not just a “Plan B”, but also Plans C through Z—mindful that every email, every phone call, every internet posting, goes into government databases.

Where we go one, we go all? Or will we be divided and conquered? Hope for the best, plan for the worst:

"Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. 'Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That's just the way it is."
