Comments for 1964 - 2017 Dr Strangelove - Full Circle

Back in 1964 a black comedy satire movie about Right Wing unhinged Military commanders starting a nuclear war. Flash forward fifty-three years and we now have unhinged Democratic politicians hating the Russians.

I may be forced to pull out my DVD copy of this movie for review. Here is a clip for those who have no clue what the CRM114,CR114, or CMR114 was or is.

Bobby Tony, it had to happen.

I'm not comfortable with it either, but, at this point, there is no alternative.

Trump, because of his nature, has made all the Democrats, and the unprincipled Democrat Media show their hand, and now we know their game plan, and how they collectively just don't care about our Republic ... not one whit.

Until Trump shows me far worse than what I have seen, I am sitting in the front car of the Trump Train.

One more thing B.T.: That last comment of yours is very insightful, and would make another outstanding post on BCN.

We are definitely in uncharted political territory here. Trump's "take no prisoners" approach is something we have not seen before from the Republicans. It has been the playbook for Democrats for as long as I can remember, but no one is used to seeing a Republican fight back so forcefully. I am not sure I am comfortable with his approach but one thing for sure is he will get the fence sitters off the fence. If you are out to catch sharks you have to throw a good bit of chum in the water. That is His forte.

He has expanded the discussion from his campaign's possible interaction with the Russians to the Obama government possible use of illegal wiretaps and surveillance on his campaign. So far there are no facts to support either claim. Nothing but unnamed sources quoted. However, now it is in the narrative that both sides are asking for an investigation.

I still say that the best possible way to understand his methods is to buy his book "The Art of the Deal." It is a road-map that he has followed as a businessman and seems to be following as a candidate and president.

He sees publicity as a key tool to drive a deal. From the book:

“One thing I’ve learned about the press is that they’re always hungry for a good story, and the more sensational the better… if you are a little different, a little outrageous, or if you do things that are bold or controversial, the press is going to write about you.”

Maybe the Political class, both Democrats and Republicans are beginning to get the point.

Homebrun here Bobby Tony.

You took one of my top 50 favorite movies and used it as a perfect metaphor to explain the incredible behavior of the Democrat party and the Democrat Media.

Thank-you.
