Book Review: "Rage" By Bob Woodward

 


“When his performance as president is taken in it’s entirety, I can reach one conclusion. Trump is the wrong man for the job”.

“Mueller wrote, “a prosecutor’s judgment that crimes were committed, but that no charges will be brought, affords no such adversarial opportunity for public name-clearing before an impartial adjudicator.”

“We’re going to put a tariff on all steel and aluminum, on everything coming in,” the president said, “and see what happens.” This approach drove Gary Cohn, the chief White House economic adviser, crazy. He had argued passionately that the American economy was too important to haphazardly experiment with.”
― Bob Woodward, Rage

“Nobody believes—even the people who believe in him somehow believe in him without believing what he says.”
― Bob Woodward, Rage

“He’s the kind of person that would inspire crazy people.”
― Bob Woodward, Rage

“But now, I’ve come to the conclusion that the “dynamite behind the door” was in plain sight. It was Trump himself. The oversized personality. The failure to organize. The lack of discipline. The lack of trust in others he had picked, in experts. The undermining or the attempted undermining of so many American institutions. The failure to be a calming, healing voice. The unwillingness to acknowledge error. The failure to do his homework. To extend the olive branch. To listen carefully to others. To craft a plan. Mattis, Tillerson and Coats are all conservatives or apolitical people who wanted to help him and the country. Imperfect men who answered the call to public service. They were not the deep state. Yet each departed with cruel words from their leader. They concluded that Trump was an unstable threat to their country."


*Folks- there's a thing with gaslighting, manipulation, and power by force that results in more than mere confusion but rather smoke, fog, mirrors, and projection.
The propaganda is so universal that's become sickening and using our own military against our citizens is something I never thought I'd see in my lifetime much less by our so-called President.

I never voted for this man because I don't believe Rush Limbaugh or Fox are my higher powers.

I believe in transparency, intellect, truth and don't operate from a false sense of self.
The enablers that've allowed this to continue (Republicans, GOP's, family members, friends, etc) are in it for one thing: $$$ and by now you should know this family has built a fortune using brand name recognition along with shady business deals and the pay to play schemes that we're just coming up upon and uncovering today.

The reason they want 4 more years is obvious: LOCK HIM UP! (Sound familiar).

Trust actions not words and never be fooled.

Vote! BLUE!
