I have a friend from childhood who repeatedly refers to the president as “Putin’s b!tch” on Facebook. His like-minded peanut gallery repeats the charge and not in a light, mocking tone. These people are angry.
There are many who operate under this belief and I doubt any amount of evidence to the contrary will change there opinion. These are the people KGB defector Yuri Bezmenov was referring to when he said:
“exposure to true information does not matter anymore. A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him, even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents and pictures...he will refuse to believe it....”

That’s a good reminder I needed this morning. Lefty ravings have gotten even more irrational lately. There was a shrieking, moaning post in the wild about the complete lack of “separation of powers” as our nation’s founders intended because POTUS, the senate majority leader and the chief justice were all seen traveling together on AF1. There is no reasoning with people who put forth such information and your post is the one that bests explains their baffling, untreated “condition”.
...and the plane gets into trouble and needs to be abandoned. Trump says to the others, "I'm the President of the United States. The nation needs me," and bails out.
Remind me how the rest goes. I noticed there isn't a boy scout on the plane in this version . . . unless Chief Justice Roberts has one hidden under his robe.
Okay, I went too far...but this is the Q Thread and there are no rules!!!
I'm glad my quote from Yuri was helpful. It explains so much of what has happened to our country in the last half century or more.
