Donald Trump as the Borg Queen

 "I am the beginning, the end, the one who is many. I am the Borg Queen - leader of the Collective."   -  Star Trek

(Translation) "I am Donald Trump, the beginning, the end, the one who is many. I am the everything - leader of MAGA/Republicans."

Donald Trump and his base share striking similarities with the Borg Queen and her drones of the TV/Movies "Star Trek." The Borg was a white-skinned, zombie-like group of cybernetic organisms, part organic and part artificial life, linked to a hive-like place called the Collective. Though a process known as "assimilation", which included forcibly transforming individual beings into "drones." Each Borg drone was surgically augmented with cybernetic components and given constant supervision and guidance by the authoritarian Borg Queen.

Donald Trump's singular, relentless goal seems to be Authoritarianism. He demands complete, unquestioning control and loyalty of his Republican Party and base. His base is a fervent, mainly white-skinned group that services his whims without question, potentially at the expense of their personal freedom and safety. Donald falsely claims he wants to bring order to chaos, but it is his aggressive, racist rhetoric that inflames chaos and vigilantism on the street of America. His goal is to ignore the underlying root problems causing all in the hope of assimilating protester's back into a silent society.

Trump has been compared to the Borg since at least 2020 by various writers. His style, his determination, and his ruthlessness match the Borg's commands when approaching someone to be targeted as another drone in the Collective: "Resistance is Futile!" We assume when Trump spoke, future "Base" nincompoops obeyed and soon became good little "drone" Trumpers and Trumpettes."

Why else would there be so darn many of them?

I admit to one giant love of everything "Star Trek". I have been a "Trekkie" since the beginning.  I would let them sew my middle and ring finger together so I could give the Vulcan salute. 

And in Trump's world, I would learn the "Vulcan Mind-meld" so I could meld Donald Trump's face to the rear-end of a gorilla!

"Live Long and Prosper, Democrats!"

The Trees Kept Voting for the Axe. . .

Opinion by John Watson   "The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for  the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood, he was one of them."   - A Turkish Proverb   This proverb reflects the idea that the perpetrator of harm may forget their actions, but the victim will always remember.  Whatever your political leaning, I have found this proverb interesting. For me, it has always found its way into different aspects of  political thoughts and discussions. During this particularly stressful election where our very basic needs are being challenged, The perpetrator has quite easily convinced a large group his base of accepting him because he will get them everything their hearts desire if they will but elect him. It has nothing to do with what he can do for them - it has only to do what they will do for him! He wants what he wants and he asks them to supply the votes. What they will get in return is neither inferred nor

It's immoral to even let him run for office. . .

  THE RETRIBUTIONIST He is a legend in his own mind He has promised to call out his Flying Monkeys to wreak hell and damnation on the "enemies of the people." They will be driven from the face of the earth.  Who are they?  The news media. Are there others?  Anyone who won't stand with him.  Once again, Trump is ratcheting up his use of the derisive label to attack the news media. Trump tweeted, "The press is doing everything within their power to fight the magnificence of the phrase, "Make America Great Again." "They can't stand the fact that this Administration  has done more than virtually any other Administration in its first two years," he continued, "They are truly the ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE!" "The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." Orwell "1984" Donald Trump is up to his old, untruthful campaign slogans once again. His attack on America'

Did Trump's Plane Get the "Boot?"

Image
TRUMP'S MAIN GEAR TIRE BOOT? Very few times is it necessary to put a restrainer boot on a commercial airliner tire, so few airports have them available. One particular plane, however, is popularizing their need. It belongs to - as far as we know - an owner named TRUMP, the name that is highly visible on the side of the plane. It is reported that he has trouble paying his Gate Rental fees when he lands at airports. This blog could not verify that report, however. The unofficial report specifically mentioned the Trump jet that wanted to land at the Bozeman, Montana area airport but they refused his landing privilege due to a sizeable overdue bill from previous landings.  He landed in Billings, instead, and had to caravan to Bozeman for his Rally.  If you look closely at the above photo of his plane, we think you will notice what appears to be a "TIRE BOOT" on the main gear. We, again, can't verify this because the main gear tire is too far from the photographer. The boo
