The Raven Chides Blackness?

Once again, not to be mistaken for Tuesday's With Morrie, it's time for Tuesdays With Trump...

Over at a financial forum...

Over the weekend, President Trump accused former President Obama of tapping his phones during the election – a claim the FBI says is untrue (contradicting a sitting President) while Trump twitters away on an epic weekend rant covering the "cover up" as well as dissing Arnold Schwarzenegger and trying to remember "Who was it that secretly said to Russian President 'Tell Vladimir that after the election I'll have more flexibility?" Yes, he tweeted that.  Geeze, Donald, use you inside voice when discussing possible acts of treason!

Yes, we are discussing politics again because the President of the United States is making public accusations not just of Obama but the Intelligence Community of committing a Constitutional Crime and he's calling for Congress to investigate the matter – even though there is not one shred of evidence that such a thing ever happened.  These are the kind of things that should be kept on the QT in Washington – even if they are true.

By not keeping our dirty laundry secret (if there is any dirty laundry and, if not, then the President is a paranoid maniac – so we can't win) we make America appear weak and tumultuous and that causes MASSIVE damage on the International Stage.  What do we do when we see countries in political turmoil?  We pull our investments, we stop lending them money, we hesitate to make deals with them until things calm down.  Bond rates soar, credit ratings crash and governments can topple over matters like these and you have how much of your money invested in America? - P

As we Nattered in Trump and Brasil?:

Due to potential irreversible downside, ill conceived attempts to meddle with our most valued competitive advantage, which is mission critical, might be ill advised in the extreme.

and The President's Analyst?:

In the first weekend, that "least dirty shirt" or the foundation of the "#1 place to do business" based upon rule of law, almost had a wrecking ball taken to it. If there is no rule of law for some, there is no rule of law for any and all. Above situation is not conducive for business, not good for anyone, not acceptable and will not be tolerated. Period.

And now this from Maria Vladimirovna Zakharova of the Russian Federation...



A warning of "Orwellian" media and "fake news" being created by Western MSM in a vandalism effort, from Russia's Director of the Information and Press, Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A vandalism of diplomatic relations or democratic process? The raven doth chide blackness?

Warning: the following video may be too shocking for some viewers, but we feel it apropos... Enjoy.
