I've said for many years that the "owners" of the country work with both political parties, and wouldn't allow someone to be elected if they couldn't control them. The control that the people who fund and foment leftist protestors actually have pales in significance against the power which international banking interests exert quietly and behind the scenes. There does seem to be a move against globalism, though. Anti-globalists came out of the woodwork to elect Trump. I assume that the international banking interests will be using the protestors to bring these anti-globalists back under control. It's going to get interesting. <br /><br />BBByker Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15602697337552385535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846567313402731847.post-66843707669830393772017-01-22T07:24:32.915-08:002017-01-22T07:24:32.915-08:00for better or worse, President Obama was simply a ...<b>for better or worse, President Obama was simply a man of his times</b><br /><br />Yes, indeed, President Obama was simply a man of his times: A charismatic liar.<br /><br />Contrasted with Donald Trump, he was much more nuanced. President Trump certainly appeals to the black and white morality of a three year old who cannot understand the implications of greater depth in multidimensional ethics. This certainly appeals to Armstrongists who have never progressed beyond the first stage ethics of three year olds who want pragmatic answers. Herbert Armstrong certainly appealed to that. Donald Trump certainly has similar appeal ("follow me, I will lead you into the kingdom" / "we'll build a wall....").<br /><br />Don't get your hopes up that it will be mostly white -- it looks like it will turn out quite black....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846567313402731847.post-25695583688646192442017-01-21T17:44:22.760-08:002017-01-21T17:44:22.760-08:00And if Mark is an alcoholic, the champagne was a r...And if Mark is an alcoholic, the champagne was a really bad idea.<br /><br />The Armstrongs have this history....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5846567313402731847.post-87923052012987324802017-01-21T09:03:45.753-08:002017-01-21T09:03:45.753-08:00Mark seems to forget that there are many Republica...Mark seems to forget that there are many Republicans who have serious problems with Donald Trump, that he has made many embarrassingly unpresidential remarks, and that he will be on a huge learning curve regarding many aspects of the presidency. <br /><br />Also, for better or worse, President Obama was simply a man of his times. He didn't engineer the policies and events that anger right wing partisans, he acknowledged and responded, and many of his responses will not be able to be reversed, simply because of the directions in which the civilized world have evolved. <br /><br />Mark and Donald bear many striking similarities. It is no mystery that Mark would be toasting the new president with a special bottle of champaigne.
