Trump rising and downtown hunting

That is a question whether Trump is a product of these times.  A lot of times some story about a current phenomena will start with, in these troubled times, or sometimes a story about something that happened in the past will begin with in those troubled times.  My point is that all times are troubled.  Remember we used to have the Russkies staring at us across the sea bristling with atomic weapons and their leaders were commonly portrayed as some kind of madmen.  Before that we had the damn Nazis running roughshod over Europe while the Japanese were carving up Asia, then we had the civil war, and then those damn redcoats wanting us to buy their crappy tea and pay a tax on it.

I rather think we could have had Trump at anytime.  Remember Ross Perot?  Look at that goofy looking guy with his gobblydegook charts, who would have believed he had ever had a shot?  I think his main claim to fame was that he was a rich guy.  I don't remember if he every toyed with either party, he was a third party guy all the way. 

Much as your ilk blames Obama for everything, I am going to blame the tea party for making possible the rise of Trump.  First of all it got people used to listening to outrageous things from the candidates and not being challenged (here the RINOs have to accept some blame, why did they ever invite those vipers into their party?), and that strident rage against all politicians.  Anybody who held an office was bad, the fact that you had never held an office before instead of making you inexperienced, made you as pure as the driven snow.

I think the first thing they teach you in jihadi school is that if you are sneaking into the United States and they are not allowing muslims in, tell them you are not one.  I'm just going to assume your talk of internment camps and slave labor and a wall along all our borders is some extended joke.

There is a river maybe a hundred feet from my downtown tower and you often see people fishing in it.  There is a Whole Foods within a quarter mile.  You wouldn't be able to take Old Betsy there, but some kind of fancy walking stick would be fine.  They have a little area there where people can eat the food they buy there.  I'm sure nobody would mind if you napped there.  And then you can have it arranged that at some random point (to keep up the thrill of the hunt) one of employees could whisper boom loudly into your ear and hand you a nicely wrapped hunk of venison.  You wouldn't have to do that nasty stuff with the deer hanging upside down and hacking away at it, and everytime you went hunting you would come back successful.
