Great clip..man I miss the days when our Presidents actually had some quick wit and humor. Reagan and Clinton were master communicators. The guy in the house now combines 3 words into one and shakes hands with people who aren't there. Like I said before..amazing timesQuote:

I think the challenge they have is what Trump said:
The use of the "Big Lie" has a lot of historical examples that are familiar.Quote:
Former Trump White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham recalls a moment when former President Donald Trump told her, "As long as you keep repeating something, it doesn't matter what you say."

The OSS psychological profile of Hitler described his use of the big lie:
His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.
If upwards to 70% of one party now believe the lie about the election being stolen, it's hard to get them to vote for you if you offer the truth.
It's a real uphill battle.
You may be right that they are running for VP and have to stay on board.
Yeah, not even close. Biden would start speaking in jibberish tongues and then deliver a big "cummon man!" at the end. Trump would go into attack mode and give out some sophomoric nickname.Quote:

Obama continues to be the Puppetmaster behind Biden and a rampant Anti-Semite. Hence his focus on the “Iran Deal”

Interesting article.
I certainly don't see Obama as a "rampant AntiSemite" from the article, but it is reminiscent of Eisenhower's jeep driver and Kennedy's liaisons like Marilyn Monroe. Stuff presidents might have wished they were a little wiser in earlier (or later) days.
Sort of wants us to believe Obama is a kind of puppet master. Hard to imagine.
