Morning Wood (or lack of it)

[huge-girth]

I haven't been locked up and don't want to.

I knew a guy who basically admitted he was shoving things way up his ass (mainly drugs) to smuggle them in while on daily work release. Said you had to use a 10" long tube to get things far enough up your ass so they'd stay in during the "squat, spread your cheeks, and cough" portion of the strip search.

One of my inlaws has multiple felonies and has done a number of stretches behind bars, years at a time. He gets strangely quiet when it comes to his time in prison and it's not because he's embarrassed.

Can't imagine spending most of my life in prison.

I worked everyday I was away. There are computers and I was allowed to be on one every day for 3 hours so I never missed work. I was not in prison, I was in the hospital.

One of the worst places to be locked up is in your own mind. People create their own personal jail cells in their heads. If your mind is in a good place you're free no matter what. If not you can be in a virtual hell while living in paradise.

So true.

I have come to a point in my life where I am at peace with all. I love the quiet and I love to be alone. I am living in a world that is in every way ran by evil, but I am living in Heaven. The mind can be a prison or a paradise, it is all in the perspective.

Trump may be an arrogant prick with zero brain-mouth filter and too much love for firing people up with his posts on social media BUT he's talking to North Korea and has the hottest 1st Lady ever who immigrated here by legal means. Love him or hate him, the man is getting shit done. A guy at work who was staunchly anti hairpiece cheeto aka Trump during the campaign has changed his views on him... he sincerely respects and approves of how hard he is working and all the positive changes he's been making. Absolutely still hates Trump as a person though lol.

Respect is a funny thing. You can seriously dislike someone but still respect them and the things they do.

 

[cladre60]

And one more thing on Trump...a few months ago Comedy Central reran their Roast of Trump from maybe 7 years ago. I decided to watch it. At the end Trump himself said "what's the difference between a wet racoon and Donald Trump's hair? A wet racoon doesn't have 7 BILLION dollars in the bank!"

He forgot to add "and a smoking hot wife that makes me look like a negative 5 out of 100." He's like Joe Pesci in all his movies - a man that can really get shit done.

 

[DLD]

I love America and I want what is best for our country, and I know Trump is the man to do it. He has made so much progress for us and He does not stop. I know by the end of His first term He will have accomplished much. If He could only get more Republicans in things would go faster. So far I am happy with His performance. I am happy the direction of the Country. I always want our county to do well, I want our President to succeed because if America is doing well we are doing well.

 

[Big Schwanz Acht]

What, exactly has this administration accomplished? (and don't say 'the economy') All I see is two sides of anger with no love/compromise. We could run down the litany but that just exacerbates the problem.

Here in Europe the media is totally against Trump. The 'Bilderberger' together with their associates consisting of big names of former politicians seem to drive the media against everything that has something to do with Trump. But behind the propaganda there are quite some substantial things that Trump has done which should have gotten positive critique.

Trump represents the real economy and he is trying to gain ground from the financial economy (controlled by a well known group of people).

I think that Trump was a cool guy before becoming president. However I am not educated enough to differentiate his actions as a president.

I know the media is super quick to criticize him simply due to the fact that he's not a career politician. They want him to seem unfit. I'm sure other politicians don't like him for the same reason. He doesn't care if he upsets them, he's there to do a job.

I heard someone at work say "oh there's Trump on ANOTHER golfing trip! When is he going to do some work?" when the news was on one day. I asked if they expected Trump to work 24/7 or if he was at least allowed to relax occasionally. You could've heard a pin drop and I never got a response.

The man NEEDS a brain-mouth filter and an advisor to edit anything he posts on social media before hitting "submit." I do like how he is extremely straight forward when he speaks and doesn't sugar coat it but sometimes you do need a sprinkle of sugar.

I remember at the end of his first 100 days in office our biggest "anti Trump" person at work said, "I'm impressed. The man actually did the things he said he would during his first 100 days. The things he hasn't finished are now up to Congress or someone else." Love him or hate him he is the president of the US and we've got him for 2 more years (hopefully 6). Come on, the man is getting N Korea to talk! That alone means a lot.

every trip he takes to his resort in Florida costs US tax payers over $1mm (and being the profiteer, he gets paid housing everyone...win/win)...it's a big 'cash-grab' for him.

In just over a year he's ruined the lives/careers of:

Mike Flynn
Paul Manafort (deservedly)
Rex Tillerson
Michael Cohen (deservedly)
George Papadopoulis
and many more...

So here's my theory:
He's indebted to many unsavory players to the tune of hundreds of millions, (if not billions) and is using The Presidency as his personal check-book. It's plainly obvious to me, whichever world leader promises profit, Donald is sucking his dick.

As for N. Korea? I've got a bridge in Arizona to sell you

The best analogy I've heard about Trump is that he's like a doctor with horrible beside manner. He tells you that you're fat, you're an idiot for smoking the past 30 years, and you need to start digging you grave now if you don't take care of yourself. You're pissed off at him but really you're the one with the problems.

One of the biggest issues is the parties and individual politicians work for themselves and not the best interest of the people who voted them into office.

Every president takes trips that cost us money and they all get more expensive not because they're trying to spend more but the cost of security goes up. I would've figured Trump would pay for his own travel and lodging since, well, he is a billionaire.

 

[DLD]

Trump is not politician, democrat or republican, He is pragmatic. He sees a problem and fixes it and could give a shit about what people say. He has been this way His whole life. Bedside manner He could give a fuck about, He wants to get the job done and the beltway He can. People can hate His personality but they can't dispute the things Trump has accomplished.

I'm going to agree with that. I'm sure he's actually not a bad guy to talk to especially after hearing that "grab them by the pussy" bit. Honestly that showed people, at least men, that he's an ordinary guy in many ways.

The whole Stormy Daniels thing was just funny IMO but if he cheated on his wife then he's at least part asshole. We don't know the details of their marriage and she could've given him permission for all we know or she simply doesn't care.

I'd much rather have him in office than hitlery. It has nothing to do with being a woman, I simply do not trust her. Both parties could've come up with better candidates but the fact that Trump won shows you don't need to be a career crook to get elected president.

I was very lucky in that my service ended before 9/11 and the 2 wars that followed. In recent years, however, I've wished that I had gone back in to serve. I know full well that my ass would've landed in Iraq or Afghanistan. I know the risks I would've been taking. I just feel like I could've done something; at the very least directly supported my brothers.

IMO, I feel Muslims are the problems we have in this world

 

[DLD]

IMO, I feel Muslims are the problems we have in this world

I would say Radical Muslims are a huge problem and they get lumped in with those who are not radical. I have Muslim family and they are not radical, they are very Americanized. When he came to the country he could not speak English very well so he needed to learn, he had a reasonably quick approval and citizenship. A good example of someone doing things the right way. I think if people looked a a place like Dubai where it is a mostly Muslim and they live a completely peaceful, western style life. Just like Saudi Arabia has come around I believe in time most Muslims will want these animals out of their religion. Just to be clear, I believe in Jesus Christ as my Lord and God but everyone can choose their own spirituality or lack thereof. There are bad people in every religion, this is why religion is a terrible thing. It is best to be a strict Jesus follower with the Bible and Spirit as your guide. You do not need yo go to no church to get to know your God, you are the church and God lives in your heart!

I think the biggest issue in this world are the evil players at the top who are controlling these issues and fanning the flames of discord. We all need to stick together united to prove their evil propaganda does not effect us. I have friends and family of all races and spirituality and I love them all, even when their opinion is not my own, I respect their right to free thought. We are told to love each other as God has loved us and as hard as that is we should always strive for this.

If the radical Muslim's are a problem (which they are) we should pray for them to learn the truth and become part of the modern world.

 

[cladre60]

Religious extremists have been a problem throughout the history of organized religion. Religion isn't the problem though, it's the people who try to force their ways onto others.

I sat through an over 2 hour presentation from a reformed white supremacist. One of the things he said was, "if white people wipe out all the other races what's next? Do we turn our focus onto those who don't have blue eyes and blonde hair? It never ends when you're locked into that way of thinking." Same applies to the religious extremists. If they wiped us out they'd find another target. Those types of people will never stop until they've been eliminated.

The funny thing is, no matter how hard we pray the radical Muslims will always be the same way. I agree every religion has it's own problem but the Muslims are worse. I also believe some of the big influential people in the world are responsible for financing all this violence. It's so annoying and frustrating.
