Really guys?

You are going to bring up two unrelated events that happened to two unrelated people in this thread in the 1960s?

Desperate efforts to find something to be a jerk about?


Action.  Reaction.  


But here is something much more timely and applicable to the topic of Trump...

Trump wants to change the libel laws to make it easier to sue people who say things he doesn't like.   Except for the decade of pathological lying he did about Obama's birth certificate, of course....

I don’t share my thoughts because I think it will change the minds of people who think differently.  I share my thoughts to show the people who already think like me that they are not alone.

Ironically he could have brought that suit anyway, yet he didn't.

All be it likely because damages would be pretty difficult to discern, or not worth the time. I don't really think it hurt Obama's reputation all that much.

51%! of Republicans STILL believe Obama was born in Kenya. It was damaging, and racist. It's still being brought up now by Republican Senate candidates.

So 51% of Republicans think Obama was born in Kenya,

Here's some other things Republicans think:

49% don't believe in evolution
66% don't believe in global warming
57% want Christianity established as the national religion.

I polled 2 democrats and they both told me that drinking from the toilet bowl was an acceptable way to cure hangovers.

Headlines on Fox right now, no joke:

Exclusive: Tim Allen ‘overwhelmed’ by fans’ call for show comeback
Most extreme 'do not travel' warnings issued for five Mexican states

Headlines on Wapo

and

Stable Genius at work.  Trump trashes unwarranted surveillance legislation after seeing it on "fox and friends"

    Disproven and paid for by Democrats “Dossier used to spy on Trump Campaign. Did FBI use Intel tool to influence the Election?” @foxandfriends Did Dems or Clinton also pay Russians? Where are hidden and smashed DNC servers? Where are Crooked Hillary Emails? What a mess!
    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 11, 2018

    “House votes on controversial FISA ACT today.” This is the act that may have been used, with the help of the discredited and phony Dossier, to so badly surveil and abuse the Trump Campaign by the previous administration and others?
    — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 11, 2018


Then his babysitters set him straight:

    With that being said, I have personally directed the fix to the unmasking process since taking office and today’s vote is about foreign surveillance of foreign bad guys on foreign land. We need it! Get smart!

Didn't hurt Obama at all with thinking people with functional brain cells.  And probably didn't hurt him with the fascist, klanner, nazi's, too-stupid-to-breath supporters that are Trump Minions - they were already incensed at a black man sitting in the White House.   You did hear the tape from Warner, OK, didn't you??  It's not only alive and well in Oklahoma, as well as much of the rest of the nation, it is thriving.  And emboldened by the actions of President Pedo.


That was only one of dozens...no, hundreds...of pathological lies told by Trump.  Even when it is easier and actually makes sense to tell the truth, he still lies just to keep his hand in the game.  The pattern is so deeply ingrained, it is too difficult for him to stop.  Like Nixon.

I've been watching all this for a while now.  I have several news organizations set up on the news feed of my phone.  I can swipe right off the home screen and pick up all the headlines at any given moment.  The level of headline bias is ridiculous on both sides.  USA Today is the only major outlet that doesn't seem to have a hard slant either way. 

(Note: this only for headlines.  I don't read all the various articles.  I assume all the articles are not technically lying, but it's all which stories they want to promote, and how they spin it.)

We expect presidents to exercise good judgement and think before speaking. Trump does neither. And it's this lack of impulse control that's most troubling.

And what's even more troubling is that his staunchest supporters cite that as a character trait they most like.

What the hell is this country coming to?

No doubt his Minions are soo proud of the 'classy' way he represents us to the world!
