Come On Congress.

       Ya know, when it comes right down to it, it ain't Trump's fault and we shouldn't be finding fault with him all the time. After all, it's Congress' fault for not reigning him in. Congress has the authority to stop him in his tracks on a lot of issues, like talking down a free speech press and threatening world leaders with war and economic hardships if they don't agree with him.
       Congress has the authority to put Trump out of office if they had the courage to do anything at all. But they have trouble deciding which side of the bed to get out of in the morning. Talk about gutless wonder girls and boys. Now to be fair some in Congress and the Senate have shown the backbone to speak out against Trump, but that's as far as they go. Others sort of mumble agreement and then go on to their far more important consideration of what name to assign to a new post office.
       Not even a slap to let him know he's not the emperor of America. I'll bet I could find more stand up courage in a Brownie troop or Cub Scout pack. Ya know, talking about how bad Trump is, just doesn't get the job done. What those kinds of statements mean is "I really am afraid to go against the President because he might get me beat in the next election."
       That's a heck of a reason to avoid doing the right thing. They call themselves good or even great Americans when in fact, they're poor excuses of Americans. They should be thrown out of office. Even if they're Trump supporters. In fact, especially if they're Trump supporters. Look, I have nothing personally against Trump. I think the way he made his money was more than a bit shady, but I never had any dealings with him so I can't say for sure. Let's just say I've heard he didn't pay his bills and screwed his tenants, and that's supposed to make him a suitable President?

Fish Or Cut Bait.

       An adult day care center. Senator Bob Corker called the Trump White House and claimed that Trump is leading us down the path to WWIII. Well, what do you think? I'll tell you what I think. I think Trump is trying to get North Korea so mad that they take the first swing at us. If they take that bait and try to hurt us, it's likely they'll give it all they've got. Which gives Trump the right to retaliate. And he will. That brings China into play, and maybe even Russia.
       Now Kim's shot may not be much in comparison to what we can do to them, but if you happen to be one of the folks in America who gets hurt or killed, it's not gonna be nothing. The thing is the more Trump pushes them the more they're gonna go all out to build up. Trump's so called Rocket man won't take too much prodding. Remember he's as crazy as the adult day care attendee.
       We've faced multiple enemies before, but they didn't have nuclear arsenals and these do. If North Korea uses nuclear weapons, and they surely would, that means we would too and so on. Could we defeat Kim with out the Nuclear weapons? I'm sure we could, but South Korea and Japan would suffer horribly. Do we really want these to allies to take the beating for us?
       Is Trump's ego worth that much? Maybe it's time for President Trump to start acting like a responsible leader and shut his mouth. But that's why he uses his bag of tricks to distract our attention from his real goals. He wants a war with North Korea, but not China. He thinks that by baiting Kim to boil over, China will stay out of any war Trump wages. Not so fast Donnie. I don't think Americans are that dumb. At least I hope not.
