Have you noticed that Trump's technique for "winning" now is the same as in his potus campaign?

[Hekate]

Isolate and pick off his opponents one by one. I watched this take place against each of his dozen and a half GOP opponents. He couldn't fire them, but he could and did get into their heads and under their skins one by one. Then they were gone, until there was only one -- he, Trump.

He could not get into Hillary's head nor under her skin, so he did the next best thing: he cheated like hell, and even then she got 3,000,000 more votes than he did. So now she lives rent free in his head.

This time around, he CAN fire his opponents -- so one by one he destroys their reputations, then their careers, then he isolates them and fires them.

He will do this until there is only one -- Mueller. And then, unless he is stopped, he will fire Mueller.

We are living in very dangerous times.

1. I still think many Americans are living in la la land and have no conception whatsoever as to

what is happening.

4. If I were not a political junkie, I'd be very confused. As it is, I can barely keep up. Nevertheless

...when he gets to Mueller the protests are going to be massive. Most people are aware that we did not vote for this.

6. Yeah, I know exactly what you mean, so much, it gets confusing ... and that's with trying to pay

attention. Hopefully Mueller will be that turning tide when millions suddenly wake up as they can focus on his actions.

10. it really is so confusing that I think people are tuning out

It's a combination of information overload and just being stunned into submission. And a belief that, despite everything we're seeing, nothing like this could really be happening in the United States of America.

I watch only MSNBC and CNN, but out of curiosity I looked at CBS's news site to see what most people are learning about, and the level of outrage just isn't there. It's a bunch of information with no indication of what is really going on, and nothing about the intense partisanship that makes all the difference to how events are interpreted, so I can understand why people who aren't obsessed with this just go "well, we'll see, I'm sure the experts will sort this all out eventually."

9. Yes we do my dear.

I may be quiet these days...yet still fighting the fight, Hekate.

Mom takes most of my time and energy these days. I am still here.

3. Trump is a monster and a grave threat. Underestimate and laugh at him at your peril.

miracles that happen now and then.
