He means he has Putin whispering in his ear, telling him all about the world and what he should do about it.

Before anyone has time to digest these lies it happens again the next day and on and on. The American people have become nullified by those that know that lying, cheating, stealing, and asking for forgiveness is all it take to control the masses. Religion figured it out centuries ago - we're fucked.

Stephen Colbert calls it "chopper talk," what he says at any given moment only to make himself look good, self aggrandizement. It has no connection to past actions or future plans, only what works for him in that moment.

Let me finish the sentence

'we have the best intelligence in the world, except on all matters concerning the 2016 elections,
then the Russian Intelligence agencies are better than ours.

Put-in told me so.'

from Santa Claus that just got unboxed today....so I was listening to some CDS I haven’t heard in a while. Better than old claptrap running his yap.

If he was red, sweating and gasping for air it is because he knows he’s way over his head. Hasn’t got a real clue what he hath wrought. Just knows he must listen to his overlord, Putin. Not a happy position for a guy used to calling the shots. These last 3+ years must have been torture for that bastard. No wonder he lives in LaLa Land so much. It is a much happier place. Too bad he’s gonna f*ck it up for all of us before we can remove him from power.

Now back to my music. Classical Guitar. Just lovely.

That’s just IT. Plain ‘n’ simple.

This is a guy who lies all the time.

This is THE guy who lies all the time.

He just lies. All the time. Period. Full stop.
