It really, literally is an exercise in futility attempting to keep pace with the blizzard of stories coming out daily about the Amusement Park from Hell -- Trumpworld. The situation has become so ludicrous that before you are even finished reading one horrific story about either Drumpf himself or one of his hired jackals, another story is blazing across the headlines to knock it down to chyron status.
And the thing is - any one of these stories would almost assuredly be the political death knell of any establishment Republican or Democratic politician, but amazingly Drumpf just keeps sailing along, and his supporters are lapping it all up as they lay the fantastical groundwork for their dear leader's anointing and deification in the deplorable recesses of their fevered, tiny minds.
The depths of dishonorable belief that Drumpf's supporters are willing to sink, in order to kick reality and truth to the curb,, solely to justify their continued, unbending support of President VSG (Very Stable Genius), is unfathomable. The behavior that Drumpf's most hard core supporters are exhibiting is the very similar kind of slack-jawed obeisance and credulity that allowed Hitler and Mussolini to come to power in their respective, fascist nations in the 1930's.
Take for instance this bullshit:
Devin Nunes' pathetic dud of a memo was released on Friday after nearly 2 weeks of non stop "#ReleaseTheMemo" craziness on twitter and Fox News (aka Trump News Central).
The memo was hyped as the nuclear bomb that would sink the Mueller investigation, lead to the arrest of scores of FBI and DOJ officials and probably lead to Rob Rosenstein being fired.
Guess what? None of that happened. In fact, the thing was such a dud that even Republicans backed away from it over the weekend, panning it for cherry picking details.
Back to Nunes' interview. So one of the key points of the Nunes memo was that the investigation into Trump DID start because George Papadopoulos got wasted and admitted to an Australian diplomat that he was told that Russia had "dirt" on Hillary Clinton.
Well, Nunes tried his best to discredit Papadopoulos' role in the campaign, even though he had played a major part in the campaign. Instead of being labeled a "coffee boy," Nunes actually denied that he even MET with Trump.
Nunes said: “As far as we can tell, Papadopoulos never even had met with the president."

"As far as we can tell, Papadopoulos never even had met with the president."
Let that quote soak in for a moment dear readers.
Once that quote is good and soaked in to your spongy brain, take a look then at this photo that was released by the Trump campaign in March of 2016 touting a very serious meeting of Trump with his own hand-picked national security and foreign policy advisory staff:

That's dear leader at the head (top) of the table obviously. At the opposite end (bottom left) of the table is the future Attorney General of the United States, Jefferson Beauregard Sessions. Now you see that swarthy, debonair gent second to the left of Sessions and with his melon basking in the photographic highlight? That dear readers is the individual who Devin Nunes is now claiming that Trump "never even had met."
Get it dear readers?? THAT IS A FUCKING PICTURE OF DONALD TRUMP AND GEORGE PAPADOPOULOS SITTING AT THE SAME GODDAMN TABLE FOR A MEETING ON FOREIGN POLICY AND NATIONAL SECURITY STRATEGY!! IT IS A PICTURE THAT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN TOOK THEMSELVES, AND DISTRIBUTED TO THE NATIONAL MEDIA.
Yet Devin Nunes, the man who is now smugly requesting that we Americans just trust his judgement on his "memo" and on his claims of a "deep state" and "secret society" inside the FBI and the DOJ where there is a conspiracy to destroy Donald Trump on purely political grounds, says --
Nunes said: “As far as we can tell, Papadopoulos never even had met with the president."

You Lying Fucker. The Gadfly would say those words right to Devin Nunes' face, "Mr. Nunes, you sir are a known fucking liar - how do you account for that sir?"
But it gets better -- did you know, based on their own internal emails, that one of the principle topics of discussion at this very serious meeting between the future POTUS, Attorney General, national security and foreign policy experts --- oh and the "coffee boy" --- was about, you guessed it . . . .:
In fact, this specific meeting is quite important. According to internal Trump campaign emails obtained by the Washington Post, Papadopoulos offered to broker “a meeting between us and the Russian leadership to discuss US-Russia ties under President Trump.”In other words, not only did Trump meet with Papadopoulos, but they literally discussed building a bridge between the Trump campaign and the Kremlin.

Ruh-roh Raggy.
So - fast forward - to this past October, when surprise word came out that Papadopoulos had pleaded guilty to lying to federal agents and was willingly cooperating with the Mueller investigation. Trump and team threw that fucker under the bus instantly and then called in a fleet of buses to run him over repeatedly. They cut him loose so fast that within minutes they had bobble-head lackeys all over tv laughably claiming that Papadopoulos was someone who was no more than a "coffee boy."
Yeah -- because it's totally fucking normal for the office "coffee boy" to be sitting at a table with national security and foreign policy heavy hitters and the (possible?) future U.S. Attorney General and the President of The United States. That fucker must know how to brew up one hell of an amazing cup of joe.
Anyhow, the point that The Gadfly is trying to make here is that these people lie extremely casually and preternaturally. They lie disturbingly. They lie dangerously. They lie endlessly to the point of mass confusion - which of course is their intent. And yet, nearly all of their lies are easily debunked, and most have been with on the record, verified and documented evidence.
But don't try to tell that to your average Drumpf supporter. It's all "fake news" as they have been instructed to believe by their puppet masters on Fox "news" and other right wing media outlets. And boy - they do believe it - unquestioningly.
But this is primarily about just how deeply and how shamelessly and how calculatingly the Trump crowd lies. And they have been doing that lying, so far, with near impunity. And The Gadfly is decisively convinced that nothing good will ever come to this country, or to the good people of this country, from that kind of lying.
This has to end.
The Gadfly knows for a fact that there are better human beings that we can have as our leaders in this nation aside from these Trump sons of bitches. The only question The Gadfly has though is -- just how many are willing and courageous enough to stand up and make their voices heard at this critical moment in our democracy's history?
