I don't have an once of respect for you

 If you support Trump in any manner, shape, or form Kadizzle has not an once of respect for you. You are the victim of mental illness, stupidity, or delusion. No apologies. A mind functioning even mildly could not embrace the orange plague. How could any human abandon reality, logic, decency, morality, and humanity to side with Trump?Only the most greed driven fool would embrace the lying con man. 

Never has our way of life been in more peril. Looking at a Trump supporter is looking at a human with no humanity. The Republican convention was truly a rat pack. 

How does it happen? How could people who recognized the rat for what he is turn around and help him sell his lies?

Normal People.

A patriot in our Donuts with Democrats group formed a negotiation group with the Hoopleheads. Every Wednesday the Normal People meet with the Hooples to try to find common ground. Yesterday no Hooples showed up but five normals did. Without the Hooples it was still a great meeting. The discussion ranged over a lot of topics. 

Not sure why the Hooples did not attend. The Hooples get very nervous when they encounter Normals. When confronted with reality and facts the cult people get very nervous. The normal response is to walk away or in this case just do not show up. 

One attendee at the meeting was a former evangelical minister and policeman. Kadizzle asked him how he made the conversion to being a Normal person. His response was very interesting. Primarily he observed he hypocrisy of those in the cults and his brain kicked in. It seemed a big part of his conversion was seeing he way the religious and cults treated minorities and those with different sexual orientations. 

When the cult causes problems for your own children, or for that matter the fundamentalist you get caught in an awkward place. Either you become fully conscious or you abandon your loved ones. It goes both ways. The cult has a strong pull. In the cult you abandon rational thinking. The cult is just like a drug. You get to mess your mind up free by simply believing in Trump, or a mean Jesus.

Will the country survive?

Sorry folks, but Biden needs to pack it up and head to the nursing home. Kadizzle admires Biden, and believes he has done a fantastic job, but you have to sell sizzle to the num nuts to get them to vote correctly. Trump will win if he can get enough low power people. Low power people are emotional, not intellectual. Trump regardless of being a terrible con man is entertaining. Dolts want to be entertained, not educated. The dolts will swing the election. Younger dolts will be crucial. 

Stupid people can be tricked into anything, and Trump knows that. Any minority or poor person that would vote for Trump is a fool, and those fools will be crucial. There are a lot of simple dingers, and sadly the Democrats need to recruit the simple dingers. Simple people buy shiny.  Old is not shiny, young  is.  Trump is not shiny, but he makes a lot of noise. Young people like noise. Biden does not make much noise. Look at the goomers that drive loud noisy vehicles. There brains are small and all they want is a loud noise. Trump is a dolt, and that is why he appeals to dolts. A young Democrat can appeal to the young. If the young, and minorities are lost, the country is lost. 

Look at the insanity of black people supporting Trump? Look at the insanity of the teamsters union endorsing Trump? Houston, we got a big problem. This is an age of image, and miniscule thinking. The house is going to burn down, and Democrats are supplying the gas. 

 

Republicans Thrive on Fear

 

Selling fear is easy, and nowhere is this more evident than in the strategies employed by the Republican Party and the insurance industry. Both thrive on selling fear, exploiting our emotions to further their agendas and increase their profits. The real danger they warn us about is often far less than what they make it out to be, yet the net result is clear: they make money, gain power, and manipulate the public.

Take insurance companies, for example. They bombard us with messages about potential disasters and the necessity of being prepared for the worst. While it's prudent to have some level of coverage, the reality is that the likelihood of many of these catastrophes occurring is relatively low. But fear sells policies, and the insurance companies laugh all the way to the bank.

Similarly, the Republican Party uses fear as a potent political tool. They stir up anxiety about immigrants, painting them as invaders threatening our way of life. They sow doubt and fear about the economy, despite evidence to the contrary. Fear works because it bypasses intellectual reasoning and goes straight to our emotional core. Politicians know this, and they exploit it to manipulate the electorate.

The human mind has two major inputs: intellectual and emotional. While appealing to intellect requires presenting facts and engaging in reasoned debate, appealing to emotion is much simpler and more effective. Scare people, particularly those who are poorly educated or misinformed, and offer them a convenient scapegoat or a comforting lie. Immigrants are the problem, not economic policies or systemic issues. Climate change is a hoax, not a scientifically supported reality. 

Manipulating the poorly informed and uneducated has been a recurring theme throughout history. The Republican Party's current playbook is no different. By playing on ignorance and paranoid fears, they distract from the real issues and prevent meaningful progress.

It’s crucial that we, as a society, strive to educate ourselves and each other. We must question the narratives fed to us by those who stand to gain from our fear. Only by doing so can we begin to break free from the cycle of manipulation and work towards a more informed and rational public discourse.

Texas Buzz Cackler

Should have made a video of the Texas Buzz Cackler. Mike called Kadizzle and said there would be the regular gathering under the willow tree at the lake. After a pleasant hard downpour the lakeside gathering was nice. A bunch of old goats sit by the lake and cackle. At some point a barrel shaped woman with a baseball cap and glass decided to tell the story of a huge bull elk in her yard. Apparently the bull elk was suffering from the heat, and panting while resting. The Buzz Cackler got a bucket of water, two carrots, and an apple for. the elk. Apparently Mr. Elk had eaten much of her yard plants. The elk was so tame she petted him on the nose. Over and over the Buzz Cackler said how big the rack was on the elk. 

Now the important part of this story is the presentation. To hear an old lady from Texas tell the tale was a pleasure. At first Kadizzle guessed he was listening to an old hillbilly. There is a special way a good southern buzz cackler tells a story. They have an accent, move their hands, their eyes light up, and the whole thing is a special act. 

Hooplehead suggest someone kill Kadizzle

A simple minded Hooplehead suggested on facebook that someone should shoot Kadizzle. The neighbor lady came over and said her daughter saw post on some facebook group where the Hooples suggested Kadizzle be killed. This was all stirred up by Trump getting his ear blown off by a Republican shooter. 

Kadizzle was able to get the name of the dinger and asked the police to check him out. Maybe the dingers will see gun control differently. What happens when you make sure every deranged person has access to guns? 

It will be interesting to see the reaction of the dingers. In the cult surely some of the nuts will come off the bolts. 

At the donuts meeting there was a lot of talk about the 2025 plan of the Republicans to destroy the country. The cult sees no real problem with a dictatorship. 

Momentum

What about the good guys with guns that are going to protect us? Trump got shot in the ear. Will he be able to hear his own lies? The donut meeting went well the momentum is building. A lot of good comments at the donut meeting. Most favor Biden staying in. A few brave, including Kadizzle think Biden needs to cash out. 

 Winky doesn't like the Javelina that has been mud bathing in our back yard. Kadizzle enjoys watching the fellow take his mud bath. The wildlife here is a bonus. The coyotes come in the yard. One has a white back. The elk are my favorite. When the huge elk come by it is a treat. 

Kadizzle is so worried about Trump. What if his wound get's infected and he dies? Imagine a country with no threat from a fascist. To see a rotten lying scoundrel wounded. So sad. 

Hoopleheads on KMOG

KMOG radio is the Fox News of Payson, AZ.  Lying is the bedrock for KMOG. Today the Hoopleheads, Charlie Bell, and the Steve Otto gang are on KMOG promising pie and ice cream. One big problem they hate taxes. So you get pie and ice cream, but no way to pay for it. The people who sell pie and ice cream want paid. 

The current town council is the best we have had in a long time. The mayor and the town council have a plan, they have good people, and they are hard working honest people. On the other hand you have simple dingers. Charlie Bell is on the radio saying he supports education, then he tells how he has two kids who dropped out of school, hmmm?

Anyone can be a negative dinger, and the Hoopleheads in town love Trump and negative hopeless talk that accomplishes nothing. Now if Kadizzle calls up KMOG and ask how the economy is so bad when the indicators say it isn't they hang up.

What about the heat?

We moved from Hazen, ND to Payson, AZ.  Summers in ND are hard to beat, but not that bad in Payson. It is all about the winters. Payson is usually about ten to fifteen degrees cooler than Phoenix. That means it was 114 in Phoenix and 100 in Payson. At over five thousand feet Payson has a very dry heat. This means water evaporates quickly. Kadizzle can sit on the deck and soak himself with a cool rag and be pretty comfortable at 100.  The nights cool down pretty good. 

The big difference between the two places of course is the terrian. In any direction things are vastly different in Payson. Not so in North Dakota, everything is exactly the same for hundreds of miles. In Payson you can go up and down three thousand feet with no problem. Back in the Dakotas a change like that would be an eight hour drive. 

So we are in the thick of a political mess. Biden needs to take his walker and walk home. Biden is a great man and has done great things, but we cannot take a chance on letting the orange snollygoster become the dictator he wants to be. 

The Truck Driver

A pleasant evening involved a drive to the top of the mountains on route 260. On the way up to the pleasant overlook the traffic jam going west was the worst imaginable. Traffic was backed up for ten miles all the way up the mountain. It must have been weekend traffic returning to Phoenix. 

Two tractor trailer trucks must have been alerted to the mess and pulled into the very nice overlook at the top of the mountain. Both the drivers were out taking some air. Talking to the first driver Kadizzle realized he had a heavy accent. Kadizzle gave him some advice about how he could park his truck at the casino in Payson for the night. He was going to follow that plan. 

The second driver was sitting at the picnic table perusing his computer. Kadizzle was soon engaged in a conversation that would last for an hour and a half. The 29 year old driver was from Moldavia and he too had an accent. Very strange that two drivers from other countries would be at the same place at the same time. Kadizzle and Moldavia covered the whole spectrum of life. The young man came to the United States with 500 dollars in his pocket at age 20. Now he owned five trucks and had his own trucking company. His girlfriend lived in Bismarck. We talked a lot about how lazy and hopeless young Americans are, how poorly other truck drivers handle their earnings, and about trucking in general. The conversation rambled all over the place, and even included how to select a wife. As the sun set we both headed down the hill to civilization. On the picnic bench two civilizations met. 

Another Good Donut Day

They popped in the door a few at a time to fill the Donut hall down at Democratic Headquarters. Hope, hope, hope, the word came up many times. Another word that got shouted out by the local news reporter was cult, cult, cult. Yep we are up against a cult. Mindless idiots in love with a narcissist orange monkey. Most of us know what a skunk looks like. Trump cult people think it is a cat with white stripes. 

Biden needs to step aside. That was about what 2/3 of the Donuters thought. One third thought we should go with the old goat. 

The real joy to the heart were the new faces. New people have been showing up and that is great. Secondly the faces are getting younger, praise be unto Jeeeesus. 

Church lady was there and everyone was proud of her for calling in to the dastardly KMOG radio of the devil. Church lady chewed out the KMOG liars on July 4th. A big shout out to Church lady.  

Donut Day

At ten will there be new faces? The Donut army has been thriving and there have been two successes, a few younger faces, and some new faces. General Donut has been saying it may be possible Liz Cheney might show up for one of our Donut sessions. The General has been in touch with the State party high ups. The state gang is impressed with the Donut format and hopefully it is spreading.

Kadizzle has invited a lot of hard core Republicans. Will they come? Things are chaotic with Biden. Kadizzle feels Biden needs to step aside as quickly as possible. The country is in extreme peril if the cult takes over. 

Enjoy comments

Kadizzle likes to get comments, even nasty ones. However, please put a name to it. Make up a name if you want. It is nice to know if one idiot, or different idiots are commenting. Don't take that wrong there are a lot of intelligent commenters. All are welcome, just use a name.  

The stupidity epidemic

 Covid was do da, compared to the plague of stupidity we are living with. Yesterday Kadizzle engaged two, and then three young people in a conversation about guns. Two simple minded dingers about 18 years old were marching around the 4th of July set up at Green Valley Park with a flag supporting the second amendment. As Kadizzle was blasting them about their gun nonsense a third dinger joined in. Dinger number three said he was a 22 year old Marine. The logic of the dingers and their understanding of gun statistics was mind boggling. Because of their age they could not yet carry a gun, however they assured Kadizzle that as soon as they were old enough they would have guns and " protect people".  They were going to shoot bad guys with guns to protect the good guys. The one young dinger was proud he dropped out of high school. The other dinger was full of religion. Kadizzle asked the religious dinger if Jesus would have carried a gun. Dinger said the disciples carried knives or swords. 

OK, different subject. Need a good laugh? Check out the video in the New York times today of some British reporter explaining the election in Britain.  For some strange reason the entire world is falling into the Trump type nonsense. The rich have scammed every country and disaster is on the horizon worldwide. It has come down to normal people and Trump cult style people. Logic and reason don't stand a chance against the cult. The cult is just like religion, it makes no sense, you just believe, because it is easy. 

The 4th of Disaster

The country is on the verge of a dictatorship, the supreme court is toast, Trump may be the king seeking revenge can chaos. Are we really going to celebrate the upcoming disaster? Is the country occupied by enough idiots to bring it down? The dolts like dolts, clowns, and chaos, and are willing to fight for it. Trump stands for nothing but a mess. People know something is wrong. The dolts just cannot figure out the rich have stolen everything. The Hoopleheads are dazed by their stupidity. The Hooples feel something is wrong, but they don't have the brain horsepower to figure out what happened. The Republicans shoveled tax breaks to the wealth, now 400 families own half the country. Is this a problem? Hell yes.  Is Trump the solution? Hell no, but the Hooples are in a daze, and will vote to make things worse. 

Really?

General Donut indicated Liz Cheney may come to our Donut meeting. If this actually happens it will be very exciting. The General has been in touch with the top dogs in the Democratic party and it may happen. 

What a mess the Biden thing has become. OK, Kadizzle is going to write it. Biden needs to step aside. If he Democrats nominate a decent young person the Democrats will win. Otherwise it will be very scary. 

Never has he country been in more peril. The Supreme court may as well be eating out of Trump's dog bowl. 

Kadizzle attended a very strange meeting today. Negotiations have been going on between right and left at a local restaurant. Kadizzle sort of attended the meeting semi invited. Very strange meeting. Kadizzle was asked a couple questions. Apparently one woman didn't like the answer that was coming so she just started talking over Kadizzle. 

The idea was to find some common ground between Democrats and Republicans. Establishing reality was not in the cards. One man said we needed to abolish the current government and establish a new one. Why and how seemed out of his reach. We live in a new era where you just get to make things up. They are running the country? Who are they? Don't know, but it is obvious. This is the crazy language you get into. Once you jump into the world of paranoia all things come easy. Once an invisible force is running things, and you are sure of it, he rest is easy. 

What to Say

"Is there anything else I can do for you", the lady at the post office said, just like the lady on the phone, and the man at the grocery store. Yes, you can vote for anyone but Trump, and you can vote for Democrats. Keep in mind the person asked if there was anything they can do for you. Why not tell them hell yes.  

The implosion

The Biden deal has brought it to the forefront. Our lifestyle in about to implode. The possibility of an insane man named Trump being elected is real. What will that be like? Trump has no plan, just destroy, and revenge. Imagine a president like Trump incapable of selling Bibles. Make it worse, sure, Trump has a plan to put the worst people in place to do the worst things they can. How's that for a plan? People are wandering around in a daze. The Democrats don't have the courage to toss Biden in the car and take him to the retirement home. The planet is melting, so what? 

Comfortable people don't do much thinking. As the old saying goes " All they want is a warm place to shit, and a new pair of shoes".  Until people are cold and hungry they will just watch television and stare at their phone. Religion is a cult, and Trump is the Jesus of his cult. Cults toss logic and reality out the window. It works, just believe.
