Post-election. Mr Trump's mouth. And stuff.

From my response to Facebook chats etcetera.


SANS his obnoxious mouth, I do believe the American people chose wisely in reflecting Donald Trump. Internal matters (mostly economic) and especially external matters (look out BRICS has been making G7 nervous), the U.S. needs a new set of policies. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris failed. 




COMPARISON to Adolf Hitler? Again, revisit of History 101 is necessary for an attempt to comparatively analyze Adolf Hitler and Donald Trump. The Nazi fuhrer ordered the burning (to death) of millions; the GOP prez wants to end wars. Do we need to reread books? My granddaughters know these already. 

       Many Don's haters actually believe his obnoxious mouth has the power to fatally take out millions? 

       Meanwhile, I don't understand German, maybe beyond guten tag, danke, and guud so I don't understand what Adolf said in his speeches. (BTW, I recommend the German series "Kleo" on Netflix. You see. I don't listen to Donald talk about stuff and things but just seeing his photos makes me think he was cursing in Tagalog? LOL! ☮️☮️☮️


A FRIEND says “'di ko feel” the result of the U.S. election. Or he's not feeling it. So I said I can feel it. Because I “feel” many Americans’ disgust upon knowing the taxes that they handed to the government are wasted in wars.

       Because that's how I feel about life. I am a lifetime anti war activist. Anti U.S. bases in the Philippines;" anti military aid in the U.S. And I wasn't just sitting and typing up words. I was out there. Philippines or America. So I am consistent. 

       Mr Trump's dirty mouth doesn't drop bombs (at least after his MOAB drops in April 2017 in Afghanistan and Syria). But he evolved into an anti-NATO expansion dude. But still with a dirty mouth, LOL! I don't care. Donald had two peace talks; Joe/Kamala had two ongoing wars. 

       (Meanwhile, I don't really mind "dirty" mouths. I was trained by Joe Burgos, LOL! Filipino journalists know Joe.) 

       Also, can't we rest the "feeling cool" and immaculately correct girth sometimes and just read the writings on the wall as is? Spade is spade + my personal economics from 2016 to 2020, regardless of Covid were the best--in all my three decades in America and I am not even a billionaire, LOL! 🏛🗽🏛


A FILIPINO (or Filipinx) issue.

Leni/BBM is not Kamala/Trump. This is a long discussion. Meanwhile, leadership of a nation is not a gender issue. And the Philippines is hardly the United States. The comparative analogy doesn't fit at all.



       There was a Dilma Rousseff or Park Geun-hye or Gloria Arroyo as there was a Petro Poroshenko or Idi Amin or Ferdinand Marcos as there was a Margaret Thatcher and Angela Merkel and dudes who led just fine. Many variables played out in leadership life. However, I believe, woman/man/gender based policies could work at local (government) levels. I was part of an NGO research that led to the Local Government Code in the Philippines in Corazon Aquino’s time from late 1980s to the 1990s. I wonder what happened to that Law. Yet I saw it (probably) worked in disaster management in communities? People-based initiatiaves? ☮️☮️☮️


WHEN we get older and seen enough, heard enough, Donald Trump's mouth or seemingly crass demeanors don't matter anymore to the point that it’d ruin your 24 hours. Anyhow, Mr Trump is POTUS, leader of the world’s most powerful nation. He is not my dad, uncle, or housemate. So I simply live by what his stewardship of a government does to life. Economics mostly.

       And since I am a lifetime anti-war advocate, I side with his take on NATO military aid.Never in my lifetime have I known a U.S. President who didn't favor military solutions to global issues. The closest was Jimmy Carter but he was so ineffective in handling the economy. Meanwhile, Mr Trump’s political pragmatism and business shrewdness is unmistakable. He doesn't have an ideology, in fact. Just a leader who deals with spade as spade. 



       He knew how to deal with Russia, Saudi Arabia, or China. He had a trade pact with China but Joe Biden (continually) failed to break China after several times sending (State secretary) Antony Blinken and (Treasury chief) Janet Yellen to Beijing, on separate occasions. Mr Trump ended the Afghanistan war, the U.S.’s longest and costliest war, which Mr Biden messed up. Donald had a peace talk with North Korea, too. Joe has two2 ongoing wars; the Middle East tempest has weirdly escalated in just months. Donald Trump has the ability to end these wars. Let’s see. His foreign policy playbook is clearly the antithesis of Joe Biden’s or most POTUSes. 

       Ukraine is no brainer. Vladimir Putin wants to end this shit. Economically hobbled E.U. needs (.04 percent growth) Moscow’s is oil and natural gas. The D can easily deal with Vladn. MENA? Don plays golf with MBS and so Saudi Arabia and the Arab League won't add more fire to the conflagration, hopefully. The region doesn't need a long war as investments spike (top FDI China and India or BRICS). Look at how Saudi Arabia diversifies in the area of fun (sports, rock concerts etc). Meanwhile, Mr Trump talks to China (promises trade pact 2) and so China talks to Iran. Beijing is Tehran's top economic savior and Iran desperately needs China to keep buying its oil and natural gas. Etc etcetera. All these negate the filth in Donald Trump's mouth. LOL! But I gotta see how things happen, or don’t happen. 🏛🗽🏛
