  1. STEVE ... THAT IS ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS! The incongruity is crazily surreal! Like someone playing music while the Titanic is sinking! Nice pleasant music in the direct midst of rioters running to and fro with gun shots, rock throwing and flashing light police cars and ambulances all racing about! Like the world's gone merrily mad! I just have to forward this hilarity to my friends.
  2. Surprised Trump's motorcycle gang boys haven't been participating in the Trump Train highway caravans. Trump has said many times this group of patriotic Americans is behind him 100%. Maybe because their lion roaring big bike and threatening outlaw appearance often looks exactly like the scary motorcycle mauraders in the Mel Gibson film "MAD MAX" some one told them to "stand down and stand by " ... for now anyway.
  3. Really wierd that this unprecedented and laughably absurd Trump incompetency campaign stuff isn't being discussed or reported more in the national media. Money missing all over the place which is a Trump signature. They still can't account for those missing millions in the 2017 Trump inauguration fund. Just look at Trump's former top campaign advisors and where they all ended up. Manafort in jail for corruption involving millions of dollars. Steve Bannon charged with siphoning millions from his Trump Wall charity fund? Brad Parsacle, missing funds and he's arrested while drunk and threatening to harm himself and tossed into a looney bin? All immersed in corruption scandals. How about Roger Stone? Rudy Giuliani? It truly is a crazy comedy reality show. Trump's talent for picking the best? Ha!

Missing: clogging ‎| Must include: clogging Road warriors called "Patriots" !!! I personally witnessed a big pickup truck Trump caravan purposely slowing traffic and constantly and loudly blaring their horns through a major intersection of my home town yesterday. The effect of this scary loud aggressive action on other drivers and people on the street was one of fear and even confrontation. It was a purposeful and powerful act of intimidation and instigation. Getting a political demonstration permit and gathering in a safe and open place in a city with hand held signs and maybe even a lot of yelling is one way of legally protesting or promoting your candidate and party. A traditional and safe type of demonstrating we are all used to and somewhat comfortable with. But to take your demonstration on the moving vehicle roadway with traffic slowing, eye distracting sign and flag adorned and loud horn blaring pick up trucks is a new level of political demonstrating. Clearly a more aggressive and road safety threatening one. We have never seen anything like the more aggressive and confrontational political actions of Trump supporters this election. You can't deny this reality. Encouraging Trump supporters to go to polling places to "watch" for Democratic voters cheating? Tens of thousands of Trump supporters all across the country participating in dangerous highway clogging and slowing "Trump Trains." Clogging traffic and potentially effecting emergency vehicle access and response time. "Mad Max" road warrior types intimidating and endangering Biden supporters ( the Biden Bus encircling incident in Texas ) on our roads and highways? People all across the country afraid to post Biden campaign signs or use Biden bumper stickers for fear of drawing fire? I can hardly find Biden signs in our city or neighboring ones. Never seen this almost complete absense of presidential candidate election signs and bumper stickers before. Never seen such stark public fear like this in our presidential election history. City businesses boarding up their windows in anticipation of post election violence? Quit pretending Trump times aren't the most anger feeding and violence fearing in our election history.
  5. What's a little humor here compared to Trump's tweeting to 100 million Americans "I LOVE TEXAS" in response to one of his encouraged highway vigilante teams terrifying the driver and passengers in the Biden Campaign bus in Texas? Watching the video of Trump's boys encircling Biden's campaign bus so dangerously close while they are all moving on the highway reminded me of the scary highway vigilante Mel Gibson film "Mad Max!" This thread actually needs a little humor to balance out it's heaviness. And what figure in America has a more central and influential role in this plague year than Trump?
  6. I was humorously inspired by David Andrew's post above mine doing exactly the same thing.
  7. Just watched the Texas Biden Bus bullying video again. Knowingly and purposely using one's moving vehicle to endanger, threaten or harm others is a crime so obvious in every state in the Union. Look at the video! I would have had a panic attack if I was the driver and or a passenger. Try this to a police or first responder vehicle and see what happens. Any Highway Patrol would stop and arrest you. And you will do time. And for a President of the United States to encourage this vigilante intimidation lawlessness with comments like "I LOVE TEXAS" to the entire nation, should be considered so outrageous, it should cost him the election. These are highly aggressive and beligerent acts of endangering done by roving bands of taunting and intimidating vigilantes. These individual acts of tolerated aggression are risking blowing things even more wide open. What if the Biden Bus had crashed and some Democratic party officials on board were killed? And all this President can say regards this violence heightening risk KKK type threatening bullying action is ... " I LOVE TEXAS?" What a scary outrage.
  8. Even here in our relatively small coastal town of Monterey, CA we have our TRUMP flag and banner caravans! I was walking into a gas station store 4 hours ago when I heard constant loud horn honking and shouts of people back and forth. I looked up and sure enough it was a Trump caravan...honking and slowing traffic at the nearest intersection. I am being truthful...most of the 12 or so Trump banner and American flag adorned vehicles involved were pickup trucks. The jacked up high ones with big wheels. Some with ladder racks. They looked like the kind of trucks you would see hunters and construction workers use. A squat big bellied, straggly haired woman next to me started waving her arms frantically and shouting encouragement to the caravan. Just to be sure I asked her...was that a Trump deal? She got real beligerent and growled back at me ..."Yeah it was...you gotta problem with that?" Later I heard on KCBS radio station in San Francisco that hundreds of business owners in downtown San Francisco were closing down and boarding up their windows in anticipation of violence after the election. The city police force is going to beef up with hundreds more personnel as well. Same thing in San Jose. A political election historian was interviewed during this news report and said we ( the United States) have never experienced such heightened anger and violence anticipation during a presidential election. He cited Trump's encouragement of his base to go to polling places to watch out for irregularities as an act of intimidation. He mentioned Trump's Twitter response to the Texas Biden Campaign bus intimidation. Trump's calming, condemning words? "I LOVE TEXAS."!!! Clearly this fear and violence atmosphere is being fed by Trump according to this contributing news guest. Clips of average people expressing their feelings about this violence threat included one young lady saying almost desperately..."this is crazy!" I can't believe someone as blatantly vigilante encouraging as Trump could be elected again. If he is, that young lady's assessment of what is going on in our country ( "this is crazy!" ) is seriously and tragically true.
  9. You can't avoid varying degrees of personal opinion in debating facts or credibility questions and taking any kind of personal belief stand ... imo. Sharing conclusory and at times even speculative discussion is what drives this forum as much as copied and pasted dry paper documents, testimony ( including so-called expert scientific analysis testimony ), photos and other hard physical evidence. I have mentioned before the need for a thorough "scientific " comparative analysis study of the suspected Lansdale/ Three Tramp/Dealey Plaza photo by top experts in the field. Which has never been done to my knowledge. And probably never will because of the expense. I would imagine that the science of personal identification through comparative photo analysis is quite advanced now. And I think the photos of the tall fedora wearing motorcade sidewalk bystander ( who many feel could be Rip Robertson ) should be analysed in this way as well. Ahh, if only I was financially well off. I would personally pay for these top expert personal identity studies. Lastly, did I read that Lansdale had some covert action dealings with William Harvey? Imo, anyone who dealt with JFK and RFK hating / Johnny Roselli respecting William Harvey in any way and who gave him their loyalty and respect even after JFK's death, should be suspect.
  10. The world’s near-richest man, Warren Buffet, has netted tens of billions from over 50 years of betting on stock-market rises, but unlike Trump Warren Buffet can speak the truth: “There’s class warfare, all right, but it’s my class, the rich class, that’s making war, and we’re winning.” American Freedom = Enriching the Rich In the first campaign of “making America Great Again”, the 40-year-old slogan Trump has brought back from the dead, Reagan defined US freedom as “the freedom to get rich”. What is not said is that this freedom “from government on our backs” has transferred $50 trillion from the bottom 90%of the population to the top 1%. In the words of Time, the US chose every step. “We chose to cut taxes on billionaires and to deregulate the financial industry. We chose to allow CEOs to manipulate share prices through stock buybacks, and to lavishly reward themselves with the proceeds. We chose to permit giant corporations, through mergers and acquisitions, to accumulate the vast monopoly power necessary to dictate both prices charged and wages paid. We chose to erode the minimum wage and the overtime threshold and the bargaining power of labor. For four decades, we chose to elect political leaders who put the material interests of the rich and powerful above those of the American people. – – – If wealth distribution since 1975 had continued in the same manner as between 1945 and 1975, today’s $35,000 salary would be over $60,000. It’s little wonder that so many Americans are lashing out at the broken system”. The Trickle Down Myth “Trickle-down” never worked, but the delusion still reigns. So does the big lie Trump tells yet again with his $1.2 trillion of public money hemorrhaged out in 2017 tax cuts. Here too there were assurances that money would be freed up for waiting corporate investment in jobs and R&D. But in the very following year “S&P 500 companies set a new record for buying their own stock to artificially boost stock prices for management and investors — a practice that was illegal until the Reagan years. – – – They have depleted so much of their funds that they have turned to the pandemic-inspired CARES Act for relief to ‘distressed industries. – – [Meanwhile] ‘essential’ workers are experiencing high child mortality rates, declining life expectancies and premature deaths from preventable illnesses.” This is an epitome of the unspoken agenda of destroying public power to govern in the common life interest while enriching the already rich instead. Yet in perhaps the greatest irony of US history, the very dispossessed and under-educated white workers who have been most broken by this greatest-ever seizure of American wealth have jumped onto the bandwagon of a demagogue New York developer now presiding over a de-regulated social and ecological chaos. tps://www.counterpunch.org/2020/10/30/the-unseen-agenda-behind-trump-destroy-the-public-realm-to-free-the-rich/ Forget the link.

  11. Trump's base is becoming more and more like the Brown Shirt violence condoning base that Hitler worked up into a frenzy of hate towards Hitler's super hyped up fear mongering boogie man enemies. Only substitute blacks, illegal immigrants, liberals, progressive minded intellectuals and queers for Hitler's boogie man groups of Jews, commies and yes, intellectuals and queers too. And throw in Hitler's genocide of society burdening mentally ill and invalids. Are Covid deaths just getting rid of the weak, old and infirm as well? And yet, imo, the real influential force behind all this totally worked up and manipulated Trump base hate creation are the "true power people" behind, enabling and propping up Trump ... the "never enough" wealth and control obsessed 1%. The huge majority of Trump's base yell and cheer their support for their fearless hero champion leader, but beyond their single election vote they don't have the massive financial means it truly takes to elevate and empower someone into the ultimate power position Trump is in. Those means reside in a small group of massive wealth elite. Who know how to remain in the shadows. Identify them...and you idenitfy who really is control. And it isn't Trump himself.
  12. So many Trump appointees would fit perfectly into the Connery Bond evil villian roles. Trump himself? A cold, arrogant, gold and wealth obsessed, orange haired, paunchy, bad golfer Goldfinger. Sebastion Gorka? Another Blofelt to the max! Stephen Miller? First assistant plan maker to "Number 1." Kelly Ann Conway? Rosa Kleb. Even looks like her. Just imagine Kleb with heavy lipstick and longer dyed blond hair. Steve Bannon? A field head in Spectre who screws up siphoning charity funds and is fried in his crime conference chair. Same with Jeff Sessions, Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Brad Parscale, etc. Big wild eyed grinning, Borat pranked and sometimes Judy - Rudy Giuliani? A laughable baffoon character in later more farcical Roger Moore Bond films. Jarod Kuschner? A Blofelt son-in-law screw up wanna be mini-me. Stormy Daniels? A Goldfinger sex toy throwaway who turns on him. She's lucky she wasn't spray painted gold! Michael Cohen? Trumpfinger's "Odd Job" who finally sees the light after he's caught in the schemes and thrown under the proverbial "bus" by his former boss? Mitch McConnell? Another evil Trumpfinger enabling character but just too weird and cartoon funny looking to cast in a film. Mike Pence? Evil number 1's parroting robot assistant and protector.
  13. Millions of Americans are actually having bad dream anxiety over the prospect of a Trump re-election. This is a fact. Trying to cope with this unbelievable and terrifying Covid virus with it's life and death threat and closures of schools, over-crowding of hospitals and tens of millions of job loss workers and their families facing financial stress to eviction levels and then facing the angry division of the entire country under Trump's enciting reign of argument, personal attacks and conflict ... in total, is truly an unprecedented tension filled and even traumatic living nightmare for much of our society. Trump truly is the most toxic and anxiety and tension causing person to occupy the Oval Office ... ever. Our country needs a breath of calmer, non-angry confrontation and conflict fresh air like never before.
  14. Trumps Main Bragging Point Stock Market Drops Over 2,000 Points In 5 days! Biggest stock market loss in one week since March. There will be no mention of the stock market by Trump, the Republicans and Fox News from now until the election. They will all pretend this record stock tumble reality simply does not exist. Only mention the stock market if it goes up. Otherwise play reality possum.

  17. Steve, it seems only about a dozen or less of us are participating in this thread on a regular basis. I also sense we are having a turn down in posting generally regards our main forum content as well. I'm guessing the current fiery national political scene is dominating and even draining and exhausting most everyone. Despite this, I think it is important to actually copy and paste the contents of the article you provide a link to. Most readers here probably don't access the links you and I and others provide. They are much more likely to just read our postings if they even do that. However, the content of the article you link is so important in what it says about Trump from at least one world renowned graphologist, I think it's good idea to post the article content itself. I hope at least some forum members read this piece. It is so incredibly accurate, prescient and actually scary. Many have commented on the oddity of Donald Trump’s huge and illegible signature. When Trump announced his candidacy, I was reminded of the time in about 1988 when his handwriting was analyzed by Felix Klein, a world-renowned graphologist, author and court-recognized document examiner. It was during a master-level seminar that I attended in NYC while pursuing my doctoral degree in clinical psychology. I had become interested in graphology several years earlier after reading that it was taught in European and Israeli graduate-level psychology programs and used clinically and for business personnel selection. I was further intrigued after learning how clinical projective tests, such as the House-Tree-Person and Kinetic Family Drawings Test, shared many interpretative similarities with gestalt handwriting analysis. Although children learn cursive using a standard writing form template (New York schools through the 1960’s taught the Palmer Method or one of its derivatives), within a year or so most children’s writing starts to differentiate from that model. These writing changes, which are unconscious symbolic representations, can reveal a person’s developmental history, either positive, when their physical and emotional needs were met, or traumatic, if they were not. Personality characteristics and subsequent behaviors are largely determined by our primal and childhood experiences, for better or worse. Klein had presented our study group with a full page of Trump’s adult handwriting, with only his gender, age (about 40) and handedness (right), but without his signature which might identify him. We were all taken aback, having not seen anything quite like it before, and we each took a turn analyzing it. After this exercise, Klein revealed who the writer was and showed us Trump’s overly large, narcissistic signature (with which we are all too familiar now, as he loves to show it off when he signs bills). Klein began his analysis saying that Trump’s writing revealed his immense insecurity, aggressiveness and rigid inability to think and perceive the world accurately. He said Trump was grandiose, extremely narcissistic and paranoid, so much so that he considered him delusional. Moreover, Trump was unable to relate to other humans with any degree of emotional attachment or consideration. People to him were objects, only useful to feed his insatiable need for adoration and attention. In looking specifically at his signature, Klein explained that Trump’s rigidly angular letter connections formed what he called shark’s teeth, which is indicative of rage and the capacity for extremely aggressive, acting out behaviors. Now I should explain that Felix Klein was a very soft-spoken and mild-mannered gentleman in the old-school Viennese tradition. However, as he continued to speak, he became visibly upset and agitated which surprised me. Attempting to calm him, I said something to the effect that, since Trump was just a vulgar real estate developer, there was no need to get upset. He continued that Trump was a very dangerous individual, capable of all manner of criminal behavior and was a menace to society. He went on to say that Trump was hypomanic and determined to get whatever he wanted, describing him as a “screaming locomotive running down the tracks without brakes,” adding, “and God help anyone who tries to stop him!” Once again I tried to talk him down without success, whereupon he stopped me in my tracks, with these unforgettable, exact next words: “I’ve probably examined well over 200,000 handwriting samples over more than 60 years, and Trump’s writing is one of the worst I’ve ever seen. In fact, the only writing that comes to mind that is as bad is Charles Manson’s.” To say I was dumbfounded would not be an exaggeration, but I have had a long time to reflect on why Klein became so upset, as this presidency has proven him right. I believe Trump’s writing triggered such a strong emotional reaction because of the year Klein had spent in Dachau and Buchenwald concentration camps where he was forced to “entertain” his captors by analyzing their handwriting at their parties. I cannot imagine if he were still alive how he would have reacted to Trump becoming president, not to mention his setting up his own “concentration camps” and traumatizing little children by separating them from their parents and placing them in cages. As Trump’s re-election is looking more remote and his legal and financial predicaments are looming large and threatening to destroy him, I am left fearing how he might react to defeat. Being so desperate and vindictive, he is capable of extreme destructiveness, not just of our democracy and its governmental agencies, but as Commander-in-Chief much worse. This is the reason I am putting out an analysis that was done over 30 years ago, which resonates as uncannily accurate today. I can only hope that the danger we face is clearly understood, so we are prepared to fight for our country and our very lives.

  18. Isn't it clear as day to everyone what is going on with many courts and judges allowing the invalidation of late presidential election mail-in ballots in states nationwide? And this vote disenfranchisement is coupled with the national slowdown of our mail in general with Trump mega-donor Louis DeJoy installed as head of the United States Postal Service and at this most crucial time, cutting back on new hirees, over-time, etc? We have noticed that much of our mail pieces now have send out dates up to 9 or 10 days previous from their arrival to our home versus a normal 2 to 5 days. I'm serious and not making this up. This is in California. Are we seeing right before our very eyes a blatantly corrupt act of subverting our U.S. Postal Service to benefit the political gain of one presidential candidate - Trump - over another - Biden? Of course we are! And you would think these courts and judges who are allowing states to invalidate mail-in vote ballots that arrive later than normal election deadlines would realize the truth that much of our U.S. Postal mail service all across the country is being slowed like we have never seen before except during the absolute last minute crunch and chrush of Christmas cards and gifts which happens every year. To appoint a rabidly Trump biased sychophant to head our national mail service at the most crucially important time of a presidential election is as blatantly corrupt as our United States Supreme Court's unprecedented shutting down the Florida Presidential vote count in 2001 by a 5 to 4 count, and superceding a 4 to 3 Florida state Supreme Court decision to keep counting their citizen's votes. Al Gore won the 2,000 popular vote by over 500,000. Yet, the Florida vote count shut down invalidated that popular vote victory and allowed Bush to take their electoral votes by a 180 citizen vote margin. The Bush biased SCOTUS intervention in the Florida vote count process in 2,000 was sickening. It will always be a shamefully corrupt political favoring act in my mind. Mind blowing in it's blatant boldness. H. Clinton won the 2016 presidential election popular vote count by well over 3 MILLION votes. That's a significant majority. Most people believe there was foreign hacking corruption to somehow get just enough votes in Trump's electoral favor in selected states to take the victory from HC despite her significant popular vote victory. Michigan alone went to Trump by a mere 10,000 votes and it was reported that way more votes than that went missing in the Democratic voting district of Wayne County - Detroit. Polls show most Americans feel there could be corruption in our vote count process this year. That is a monumental crisis in confidence with the most ominous implications. What a sad point we have reached in our national fabric regards trust in our government. Hopefully this corruption madness will come to some degree of lessening this November.
  19. Noticed this Dr. Shaw describing Connally's wrist bone injury as a "compound fracture." That's "two" breaks. Connally's rib was shattered enough that a fragment of it punctured Connally's lung although not significantly. Just have a hard time believing the Magic Bullet was so undamaged looking after hitting and taking out one of Connally's ribs and causing two bone fractures in his right wrist. And again, was there ever any description of blood or tissue on the Connally stretcher found bullet by the first person to see it and pick it up?
  20. Those of us here who are addicted to posting on this thread will have to go through a withdrawal period ourselves when it ends, as it must, once Trump loses in the next few weeks and/or for sure this January 20th, 2021. Yet, it'll be good to get back to the forums JFK debate and study only. Personally I want to thank the moderators for allowing this political and social anxiety release valve thread for those of us JFK truth seekers who have actually felt an unprecedented responsibility to discuss this unprecedented entire society stress subject as much as we have. Now, back to JFK and UFO's and 9-11 !
