PULL THE THREAD

     We all have had it happen. There is a little thread of whatever hanging from a piece of clothing. It does not look nice and ruins the image, so we pull at it hoping to tear it off and oh no! the thread just gets longer and longer and before you know it there is an unraveling of the item of clothing. Oops!
     Well such seems to be the case with two people and/or administrations, for the head of one gives the signature color to an administration and if a thread is loose in one, then the other begins to unravel as well, usually with a faster and faster pace. Such is what we have in our two "favorite" administrations and administrators. So today we go first with David Israel and UCO. For a man who seems to push the idea that he is an advanced person, like a Da Vinci of his time, a man of advanced ideas, every new idea is opposed by him and his crew, with his 'Eddie' managing from behind the throne, putting words and ideas in David's mouth.  So the man who sits all day, alone, pushing buttons on an inanimate computer - because the man cannot deal with real people - this same man opposes any new ideas of the age of computers and electronics. So... no esignatures, this from a man who claims he enlightens the world with his email blasts. This from a man who takes years to move on say to - changing the manner and method of voting. He pushes it away, finds excuses to deny, denies his own errors, until down the line and years later he is forced to acknowledge his hanging threads, not chads, but just as bad, perhaps worse! 
     Esignatures are accepted in major deals. Houses can be bought and sold, business deals completed, but in CV, for UCO, oh no. Not here, for then it would be too easy to gather up the signatures of the growing opposition to David Israel and his loose ways with our money, his incessant insistence on his desires and doing it HIS way, his years of long denial of guilt in the road mess and the loss of over five million dollars and the necessity of doing it again. It took him years to acknowledge the massive flooding it produced after every rain, large or small. It took years to move off the ridiculous hand voting with its massive openings for manipulation and still more years to get him to go with one man one vote in a CV version. He is still fighting that for he knows that the majority of the population of the residents despise him, even hate him, for what he has done and continues to do to our Village, to the detriment of our Village. Time to pull on one of the many threads that are hanging loose and pull, pull hard, and get this man gone from UCO. Time to oust him any which way - via impeachment, or vis election loss, a hard thing to do as he controls too many of the older, unthinking delegates that he drags out at voting time, who suddenly arise from suddenly reconstituted Association Boards. Time to change the whole system. And by the way, the opponents are denied access to the officers and Associations - only the obstructionist man in the back room and his buds have access. That thread is a calling.
     And then again, we have our so esteemed loony president. Trump. Lord help us for we are in more than a pickle. We are drowning in that pickle juice even as our own version of Nero keeps rolling along, not with a violin, but with threads a flying.
There is a rule, basically a courtesy rule, that shrinks do not define a public figure as sane or not, as mentally balanced or not. Psychiatrists have been champing at the bit of this rule since Trump began his campaign for if ever a man needed public definition.... One states that "it is appropriate for mental health professionals to "condemn specific patterns of behavior such as habitual lying, blatant disrespect for others, self-contradiction and erratic behavior as inappropriate for a person holding a public office." She continues with "Such behavior patterns can be pointed out without the need to label them as a specific psychopathology,". "The behavior speaks for itself." 
     'Nuff said there! But the very fact that this man is President makes it not just a laughing matter, but even a crying matter. Just look at his record on the whole Russian collusion and interference issue. He deflects and obfuscates, throws tantrums, but all the while refuses to fess up or open up. So what do we have as the hanging threads abound? We have - a Democratic hoax, or China did it, or a 400 pound man sitting on his bed, or even a hacker from New Jersey, or maybe there was no hacking at all. Guess 17 intelligence organizations can all be wrong - not! He refuses to admit the hacking and the collusion and the fact that it was done by Russia to get him elected and once again I will state that this man is not a legitimately elected President and more and more people are coming round to that thought and voicing it.
     He lies as a matter of fact, a sign of mental disruption. He has disappointed the Carrier workers, that is unless they move to Monterrey, Mexico and become immigrants in Mexico! But then again there will be plenty of company for people who refuse to die as orchestrated in his health bill - what a misnomer! - will move to Mexico. Can you imagine setting up a six month waiting period for cancer survivors or those who suffer from any chronic disease that needs medication, but there it is - the Death budget again.
      "...the so-called health care bill, will be the most devastating attack on the working class of this country in the modern history of the United States of America......will cause devastating, unprecedented harm to millions of people in my state, in your state and all across the country."
     And among the frenzied efforts to convince Senators to pass this horror, we have the increased awareness that Trump has deserted his base and in fact, never was with them. All along he has seen the Presidency as a way to making new deals with countries and other companies, with banks, such as The Deutsche Bank who own him to the tune of 364 million dollars and that is before we add in Kushner's debt to them!! And the timing of these loans....We need to pull up our pants and straighten our shoulders and get this man gone and in the meanwhile impress upon our representatives in DC that we will not tolerate his ruinous policies, his lack of ethics, his use of the country and our government as a means to an end - the further enrichment of Donald Trump. Period!! Think that "I" word is looking better and better.
     And all the while the hatred grows, and rather than build upon what was a growing beating back of racial politics, we now have a growing hatred that permeates the land. African Americans in some areas want to pull away, hold black only affairs where they would definitely rail against mandated all white affairs. What is this?! Why the separation? Why the hate? Why? Because this man, supported by hate organizations, is now sitting in the Oval Office. That is why. I do not care where this hate comes from nor where it is manifested. All I care about is that we once again combat it, beat it back before it rips us apart once more.
     Americans. Villagers. Take a good long and evaluating look at what we have and what we should have instead. Listen to the rest of the world, hear their words. Look at who has backed Trump - a sworn enemy of our country for decades. And they love Trump. So why is that?
Think, people, think. Put aside your defense mechanisms about having voted for Trump. That is past. Time to look towards the future. If there is a future.
