LIES, LIES, & MORE LIES

With all the lies coming from Trump, his staff, Ryan, Faso, and all the other GOP “all for the rich” Congressional representatives, it is important that we not let each new lie lead to our forgetting the older ones. Here is a very partial list, from the NY Times, of just a few of Trump’s lies: “Barack Obama’s birthplace, Obama’s phone “tap,” John F. Kennedy’s assassination, Sept. 11, the Iraq war, ISIS, NATO, military veterans, Mexican immigrants, Muslim immigrants, anti-Semitic attacks, the unemployment rate,  the murder rate, the Electoral College, voter fraud, the size of his inaugural crowd, his health care bill, and his own groping of women.”

 

FACT FOLLOWS FICTION

Remember the film “The Manchurian Candidate?” That was about one man controlled by a hostile foreign power and ordered to act against the United States. Today we have the Russian version, a whole administration doing the bidding of a foreign power. In the film the plot was exposed – hopefully the Puppets of Putin will be similarly exposed and defeated.

HUNDREDS AT FASO’S KINDERHOOK OFFICE — BUT NO FASO

SOME OF THE SIGNS FROM THIS EVENT:

HITTING TRUMP WHERE IT HURTS

Economic pressure works!

When 200,000 Uber customers canceled their accounts, CEO Travis Kalanick was forced to resign from Trump’s economic advisory council.

Disney CEO Bob Iger canceled a meeting with Trump

ESPN announced in a announced that it would be moving the ESPY Celebrity Golf Classic from Trump’s National Golf Club to Pelican Hill Golf Club in Los Angeles.

Jose Andres, the high-profile owner of ThinkFoodGroup and 18 restaurants who made Time’s list of 100 most influential people in 2012, announced his decision to back out of a deal with Trump International’s new hotel in Washington D.C., which is currently under construction. Andres’ company had planned to open the premier restaurant in Trump’s new hotel. Celebrity chef Geoffrey Zakarian also announced that he would not be opening a restaurant in Trump’s hotel.

Trump’s mattress line became another casualty of his racially-infused comments. As early as last July, Serta, the nation’s number one bedding producer, decided to begin “unwinding [its] relationship” with Trump.

Nordstrom has just cut its ties to the Trump brand (they say it is because the brand was not selling, but….)

Boycotts have also started against other Trump-supporting companies. Among them: Yuengling Beer, New Balance Shoes, Hardees/Carl’s Jr., Hobby Lobby, Amazon.

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos has taken a strong stand against Trump’s immigration ban, but Amazon is still selling Trump products, including pro-Trump hats and shirts. Although on-line buying from Amazon is easy and the prices are usually good, there are plenty of other sites that sell the same products.
