Uncle Ken's deer season

I guess it's one for the deer and none for Beagles.  Hope that guy gets out of this ok, maybe with a fashionable scar to impress the does.  Of course maybe not too, but then coyotes and vultures and whatnot have to eat too.

In breaking news the Turks have shot down a Russian plane.  The Turks and the Russkies have been enemies since Czarist times.  What happens when the Russkies shoot down a plane of the Turks, our NATO ally?  What do we do?

In other news this Trump and the thousands about thousands in New Jersey standing on rooftops and cheering as the towers toppled.  Oh he has told some whoppers before but they were subject to interpretation, and a little vague, but this one seems uncommonly bald-faced.  It's like our discussion some time ago about objective reality.  You can say it's hot and we can discuss that forever, but if you say you have a tree about fifteen feet tall in your yard we can walk over there and it either is or it isn't.

The other guy, the soft-spoken one, initially went along with Trump, but has now back peddled.  He had told whoppers aplenty, especially about this youth, but he mumbles and wanders and is so polite, and anymore doesn't seem to be much of a threat, so the reporters kind of let him be.

But Trump, a bigger threat than ever, always has his jaw thrust out, and it's hard to see him ever admitting that he was wrong about everything, and he has already announced that he has the world's greatest memory.

So where does this go?  Do his followers realize that he is a bald-faced liar and abandon him?  I rather doubt it.  Do his followers just decide to believe whatever the man with the world's greatest memory says?  Of course they've always believed that the media were lying liars, well the media that is against him.  And here it occurs to me that those other guys who are always rapping the media have the Foxies and a coterie of conservative commentators behind them.  But is there anybody in any media who likes Trump?  I saw Limbaugh, remember him, on a Sunday show last week and the best he could do was assert that Trump was better than Hillary.

So has Trump, like those satellite shots of yore, broken the surly bonds of Earth, or of truth in his case?  Can he just say anything at all and watch his polls soar? 

Well as a dem who sees Trump as wrecking the republican party, I love this.  Surely the big girl will then sweep to victory (not so hot on her, truth be told, but compared to the monsters in the republican primary I would be glad to climb into her lap and have her whisper her sweet little lies (not lies really, just a little truth bending) into my ear.)

But even though these early polls mean nothing they do show her losing to almost all the republican candidates, so what if she doesn't sweep to victory, and we see Trump and Putin man the controls of who shot whose jet down in the middle east?

I know you don't take much interest, but the republican primary is my deer season.

Thankfully I don't have anytime left for my explanation for how ISIS rose or why anybody joins it, because I don't think I have much more than head scratching.
