The Hitch Hiker

Kadizzle was coming back from Cottonwood. He was there to take his sister to the doctor. On the way home he noticed a tall guy with a backpack trying to get a ride. Since Kadizzle has been saved many times hitch hiking by kindness he stopped and offered the guy a ride. The tall man threw his backpack in the back of the Trump. When he got in he apologized for smelling bad. He was a little ripe and we cracked the window for some air. He happened to be going to Payson, where Kadizzle was headed. He was extremely delighted. As we headed toward Payson somehow he mentioned two cheeseburgers for six dollars. Kadizzle stopped at McDonalds and got us each a cheeseburger. As we headed up the mountain it became more and more apparent the man was a mental case. He explained how he made a living carving birds from wood and said his goal was to get some alligator juniper. His plan was to sleep behind the Wallmart.  Kadizzle had a hard time hearing him, but the man went into religious nonsense. One shocking thing he said was how he would find food in the Payson dumpsters.  Apparently Payson has a good dumpster menu.  He said so many strange things it is hard to list them all. One story was about how he got caught 2 years in the future. It wasn't good.  Kadizzle began to look forward to letting him out.  

Coffee Time

 It is a typical day. The wife and her husband are up at six having coffee, perusing the internet. Never has more ink been wasted on one man then the Trump insanity. Perhaps Kadizzle is beating a dead horse, but he never thought he would see the United States plunge into such idiocy. The dumbest brick walking around with a Trump hat must know at some level he has been duped. Everyday Trump provides more evidence he is insane, a dictator, and a man with the mind of a child. How do the Trump supporters ignore the pyramid of evidence Trump is the worst sort of con man scum. Trump has surrounded himself with people who share his mental illness. What has our county come to. Can we restore sanity to the United States?

How can you miss it?

Kadizzle is apparently “obsessed” with pointing out that Donald Trump is insane. Guilty as charged. But how can anyone not notice?

Trump’s latest stunt—mocking former presidents by insulting them beneath their official portraits—is just another trip to the bottom of the barrel. It’s petty, childish, and beneath the office he once held. And it fits a pattern.

The lies have gone from bad to absurd. Trump recently claimed, for no known reason, that 28,000 people were killed by snakes in Peru. Twenty-eight thousand. The actual number? Six. This isn’t exaggeration; it’s fantasy.

Then there’s his promise to “reduce drug prices by up to 400%.” That’s not reform—it’s mathematical gibberish. Prices can’t be reduced by more than 100% unless pharmaceutical companies are paying people to take their pills. This is what happens when slogans replace thought.

At this point, it’s clear: Donald Trump doesn’t think in facts, logic, or reality. He thinks like a toddler who believes saying something loudly makes it true. He confuses dominance with leadership and delusion with strength.

Trump doesn’t want to govern. He wants to rule. In his mind, he isn’t a president—he’s a king. And the most alarming part isn’t that he believes it. It’s that millions of people still pretend not to see it.

The rich don't pay taxes

The most wonderful illusion foisted on the Hoopleheads is that the rich pay taxes. Today in the New York Times Mitt Romney came clean and admitted the schemes the rich use to avoid taxes. Our country and many others are going back to feudalism.  Most Americans are serfs, peasants, or just plain broke. Trump as the head circus clown keeps peoples minds buzzing with insane lies, and the MAGA guys love it. 

The world is on the edge of a cliff as Romney says. The solution is three words, "Tax the rich".  You are not rich. You might be under the Trump illusion, but unless you have a couple hundred million you are just one more peasant.

Nice Trip to Flagstaff

Kadizzle and the boss spent a day and night in Flagstaff. The amount of crap moving through Flagstaff by train is amazing. About every fifteen minutes a hundred car train rumbles through Flagstaff hauling stuffed animals and Chinese fribbles to Walmart. 

We spent the day wandering around the old part of town. Flagstaff has a lot of nice shops, and it is apparent tourism is the heart of the economy along with the college. Like every town urban sprawl has taken its toll. Living among the pines seems like it would be nice. The nearby Grand Canyon, and local skiing don't hurt. Flagstaff has a reputation for being liberal, which is a relief from our town plagued with Hoopleheads wearing Trump hats.

Hopefully Trump has shot his foot off with his recent appalling remarks. Over on the National Association blog the subject is getting young people to pay attention.

Why not really Clean up Payson?

Take a drive around Payson—really drive, not the postcard version. Turn onto Arrow Street and look around. It’s not a neighborhood; it’s a junkyard people are living in. Broken-down vehicles, piles of debris, and neglect everywhere.

Don’t tell me there aren’t ordinances for this. There are. They just aren’t enforced. The town council’s solution appears to be silence and avoidance. Maybe if they ignore it long enough, the blight will politely disappear.

Every year we hear speeches about making Payson better. Every year, nothing changes. Improvement requires action, not slogans. Right now, neglect seems to be official policy.
