"Eff" Time Magazine
I guess the 500lbs of orange bile in a 200lb wrinkled bratwurst casing won't have to create fake Time Magazine covers, he'll just be able to hang this waste of ink in the Confederate White House in Florida.
It just frickin floors me. The waste of time and serious thought spent on this worthless dumbass is a symptom of insanity.
Look, you could write a 10,000 word essay on a pile of dog shit, but it's still dog shit.
I keep going back to my Navy days. It was 30 years of my life, so yeah, it was a significant part of my life.
One of my favorite things was Damage Control training. I was in a "in the rear with the gear" type of job. DC training broke up the monotony. It was, for me, the "adventure part". I actually was a member of several of my ships Damage Control Training Teams.
We drilled a LOT in Damage Control. When you stand on Deck, and get a 360 degree view of nothing but ocean for as far as the eye can see, you understand that your most important safety device is what you are standing on.
I never worried about the Russian, or Chinese "Sears Catalog" navy. Since WWII, they VAST majority of US Navy casualties have been from accidents. We worried about collisions with other ships, or reefs. We worried about Main Space fires. We worried about planes crashing on Flight Decks.
We practiced and drilled on evacuation and how to light off the Halon Flooding System. We trained on using "Tilly" to push the flaming wreckage of an aircraft over the side.
Know what we NEVER did? Interview the fire about its motive, plans, or policy positions.
See, a fire has one goal. To burn up and destroy EVERYTHING in its path until extinguished. And it shouldn't and doesn't matter if 41, 43, 45, or 47% of the Sailors are "rooting for the fire".
That's it. That's all a fire wants to do.
You're welcome Time Magazine, because I think I just saved you 9,998 words.
I get that you feel this is "news" that needs to be covered, because millions of voters have lost their FUCKING minds, but the story is not the psychopath, it's the mass psychosis.
Providing "coverage" to this moron, is like providing oxygen to a fire.
Ask yourself this Time. If your house was on fire, would you get out your notebook and interview the fire about its plans and policies, or would you do all you could to deprive it of oxygen?

today's media claims to be more interested in things like "balance" (ever notice this is invariably used as an excuse to give the right wing more of a voice, not the left wing?) and not taking sides.
but the constitution enshrines freedom of the press in the first amendment. why, so that the media business can make profits without government interference? no, the constitution is about the framework of a government, it's all about how the government should operate and how it is set up with divided duties and checks and balances and safeguards to prevent tyranny.
they remembered european monarchies, and specifically didn't want that for america, so the constitution has many features designed to prevent a tyrant from taking or exercising power.
*that* is why we have freedom of the press. so that they can be free to call our tyranny without fear of repercussions. congress is prohibited from arresting them for that or preventing published speech they disagree with.
i can't recall the last time i heard the media say anything like this may not be profitable for us as a business, but it's our patriotic duty to report.... maybe walter cronkite once said something like that. today's media instead sees it as their duty to amplify donnie's speech and give more airtime for his lies and hatred, enabling tyranny rather than opposing it.
donnie was an obvious tyrant and disaster in 2016, but the evidence by know is staggering. yet the media ho hums even a criminal trial, while more are pending, never mind that he's already been legally determined to be a rapist and defamer and fraudster.
when they announce a tornado, they tell people to seek shelter and stay safe. donnie is set to be far more destructive. where's the advice on how to stay safe? meh, let's just run a feature about how fascinating this guy is.
Then we'll talk about Fascism and where this country is headed and can we afford him back in power.
Granted I'll need to go buy one today to discover if TIME was praising him or warning us.
My crystal ball is blank, what's your ball showing? Always heard "Never judge a book by it's cover"
