He Gave the 'Peter Principle" a Clearer Definition


 A Self-Professed Stable Genius

Is he aware that even a stable genius would never, ever make such a pompous statement to the public? He is a "pompous ass," said one reporter, and that is exactly what a "pompous ass" told the people.

We are living in very strange times and it would not be unusual for strange times to spawn strange creatures. The strangest of them would, undoubtedly, float to the surface at some point. It's what I would say is the perfect example of the "Peter Principle" which states "people in a hierarchy tend to rise to a "level of respective incompetence." Employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent as skills in one job do not necessarily translate to another."

He thought he was a great developer of real estate, so he thought he must be a great seller of real estate. He thought he must also be a great businessman - which we find out he wasn't. He thought he was a great salesman and wrote a book about "The art of the deal", and again, he wasn't. He thought he could put deals together, but he was kind of a loser at that, too. He thought, since he was so successful at all of these things, he would be great at producing a television "reality" show. It lasted for awhile, and then fizzled.  That took him to a the strangest idea of all. He thought he was qualified to run for President of the United States - because of how great he was at everything else he has done!  He ran and won, but he was twice impeached and, thinking that all went well, he is running again! He has been convicted on 34 felon charges, sexual assault charge, theft of highly secret government documents, and many others.

Does this sound like he's "stable?" Does it sound like  he's a "genius?" 

Or, does it just sound like a "con man" who's daddy gave him millions to play with. . . and he wasn't good at ANYTHING except being a "con man!"

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
