But he also states that the USA is not at war with Iran.
Unfortunately we can expect more jaw-dropping acts and statements from the White House this year.
We can only hope that:
1) There will still be accessible elections this year.
2) All Trump's actions will ensure that Americans will take the effort to actually vote.

Gov Gavin #Newsom nails it.
This is exactly what I think when it comes to what #DictatorDon, #JV & #LittleMarco think.
Not just #hypocrites, but how does one go from calling T**** "America's Hitler" and a #ConArtist to being his most loyal generals? They stand for nothing in the name of power.

The best part of Catch Me If You Can is that the movie is Frank Abegnale, Jr's biggest con.
Based on his book, which has long been proven to be wildly exaggerated, at best, Spielberg's film has made a petty man seem wonderfully brilliant.

I have taken a few online music/artist development-type of courses, and if the teacher has a list of recommended books that includes anything by Tony Robbin’s, I immediately lose respect for them.

Knaves and Hipocrates see through the Whole sistem at once. I will take the People their own way says one of these, I will serve them without Pay, I will give them money, I will make them beleive that I am perfectly disinterested untill I gain their Confidence and exite their enthusiasm. then I will Carry that Confidence and Enthusiasm to markett and will sell it for more than all I give them, and all their Pay would have amounted to — si populus vult decipi decipiatur [if the people want to be deceived, they will be deceived].

George Parker spent 30 years "selling" NYC landmarks including Brooklyn Bridge (twice weekly!), Madison Square Garden, and Grant's Tomb to unsuspecting tourists and immigrants. Meanwhile, Victor Lustig sold the Eiffel Tower twice by posing as a French government official, collecting $100,000 bribes each time.

From an article I read today:
"... but absolution is the realm of priests and other con artists."

I am not proud of this past indescretion, but at one time I strongly supported our next Director of National Intelligence.
She campaigned on ending US military interventions, sacrificed her future in the DNC to endorse Bernie Sanders, joined the protest at Standing Rock in 2016 & was an advocate for environmental issues, handed out pocket versions of the Constitution at appearances & asked if you read it, & advocated for Medicare for all.
And now her deal with the devil is complete! #conartist

"Dig deeper into the $100,000 Trump Watches and who might buy it:
-You can buy w bitcoin (untraceable)
-Foreigners and foreign entities can buy.
-Photos on site are not the actual watch but 'illustrations' of what it might look like per disclaimer.
-No guarantee when, or if, watch will arrive and Trump not liable for shipping timing per disclaimer."
~ Ben Meiselas as quoted by Kamala Rocks!

"Former President Donald Trump pushed $100,000 watches on the same day his wife Melania Trump told Fox News people are struggling to afford basic necessities."

Jonathan V. Last looks into the materials and parts used to make the $499 watch and the $100,000 one, and finds the former has parts worth about $60, the latter parts worth about $20,000 and possibly much less. A scam….

"There are much, much worse things about Donald Trump than his shameless hucksterism, but leveraging the presidency in this way is truly grotesque. Despite the fact that we’ve learned to expect nothing, it’s still shocking that corporate media considers that this ugly aspect of a presidential candidate is something we all should ignore—or accept."
-
"In a slimy video that would be stunning in its ridiculousness coming from any other presidential candidate, Donald tells us the $100,000 watch is made with almost 200 grams of gold and 'more than 100 real diamonds. That’s a lot of diamonds. I love gold. I love diamonds. We all do.'
Jesus."
-
"Donald long ago learned that there’s no risk in selling his name—he gets paid up front, does a sales pitch, and cashes his check.
The new watches sell for anywhere from $499 to $100,000 (not a typo)."
-
"Sometimes the grift comes in the form of asking for campaign contributions that go to fund his legal expenses and not his campaign. Sometimes he hawks cheap products somebody pays him to slap his name on. In the last year alone we’ve gotten gold sneakers, non-fungible trading cards, bibles, and, most recently, watches."
-
Mary Trump writes about her uncle:
"Donald is not a builder—he has, in fact, created very few things in his life, unless you count the smoke and mirrors. Since he’s been unemployed over three years, he’s spent the bulk of his time playing and cheating at golf; but he’s also spent a considerable amount on his lucrative side-hustle: grifting his followers."
