It's whether he'll believe all the worst of the propaganda about China and Russia - which is really an attempt to rob natural resources of those two countries (alternative lies as "free markets"). <br /><br />I wouldn't make book on a safe outcome given Trump's track record of instigating and living off usury. Or Western governments looting of the rest of the world. <br /><br />The precedents are there: Whether people have the common sense or the courage to face them is another matter. We certainly can't rely on mainstream media to tell us the truth......they'll be too busy trying to find out if Trump grabbed the pussy of some unfortunate woman or running away from the truth about their employers or their own cowardice.<br /><br />In these circumstances the best hope is that you're near to the centre of the nuclear flash when it lights up your home. That way you'll have no fucking worries whatever.Alan Cliffordnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4433144336299288135.post-36191944002467328442017-02-03T12:07:06.910+00:002017-02-03T12:07:06.910+00:00Another thing that seems to have slipped under the...Another thing that seems to have slipped under the radar in all the controversy about alternative facts is a comment Kellyanne Conway said to Chuck Todd of NBC during an interview after the whole alt-facts thing exploded: -<br /><br />"Your job is not to call things ridiculous that are said by our press secretary and our president. That's not your job," Conway<br /><br />"Can you please answer the question? Why did he do this? You have not answered it -- it's only one question." Todd<br /><br />"I'll answer it this way: Think about what you just said to your viewers. That's why we feel compelled to go out and clear the air and put alternative facts out there." Conway<br /><br />It's worth repeating that first statement again, Conway said - "Your job is not to call things ridiculous that are said by our press secretary and our president. That's not your job,"<br /> <br />Now I may be old fashioned but questioning authority is probably the single most important thing any journalist/interviewer should do, revealing and not a little disturbing that Conway wants everyone to believe otherwise.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
