A “Terrified” Paul Krugman Wakes Each Morning in a “State of Existential Dread”
Krugman believes the 45th President may soon be impeached or removed from office by the 25th amendment. Because of that, the President has nothing left to lose.
“He can’t save his presidency. He can, however, still hurt a lot of people. And he surely wants to,” Krugman told Twitter.

Ah! In Saturday’s WSJ book review section, there’s an entire column devoted to the shrinks that want to diagnose Trump in such a manner so as to facilitate his removal from office via the 25th amendment.
“The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President”. It’s a collection of essays, edited by one Bandy X. Lee, who is part of the “Duty to Warn” group, who ignore the Goldwater rule. And apparently, they all come up with a different diagnoses.
Another book “Twilight of American Sanity” doesn’t bother with Trump, Dr. Allen Frances goes after the entire country for…”our inability to respond meaningfully to the increasingly urgent dangers that threaten huan survival – overpopulation, global warming, resource depletion, and environmental degradation.”
He is also the author of “Essentials of Psychiatric Diagnosis”.

I do wonder about that. Think that’s why it took so longe for a statement. Obama knew. No way the daughter didn’t hear the scuttlebutt, no way she didn’t witness some strange maneuvers, such as a colleague saying, “Ugh, I have to go to one of those meetings with [starlet] and Harvey. Gawd, I hate this” or “Someone needs to drop this off at Harvey…NO!! Malia, uh, no, we’ll get someone else.”

There is an interesting documentary about the Vietnam War currently on PBS
http://www.pbs.org/kenburns/the-vietnam-war/episodes/
The first episode is enlightening. I must watch it again to make sure I got it correct in my mind. Vietnam was a French colony before the start of the second world war. During the war the French were busy in their own country. After the end of WWII France effectively invaded Vietnam to re colonize it and everything went down hill after…
All documentaries have a bias. I think the maker of this one, Ken Burns has Democratic leanings however he does not hide the facts that the Vietnam war was escalated during Democratic presidencies.
I am glad someone laid out the sequence of events of how this conflict started.
Watched episode one to four. Do not think I will watch the rest. There are a lot of dead bodies and even more evidence of continuing the slaughter to save face by the antagonists on both sides.
I will however say one thing. Looking at the way most of the rural population of Vietnam lived. No shoes, no clothes, straw huts they did not give a flying fuck about politics, the spread of communism. They just wanted to live their lives.

I would guess most of these people graduated from college too. Says a lot about our education system doesn’t it. This is depressing
NEW YORK (World News Bureau) – In a recent polling of 585 NFL players, nearly all of them were unsure of exactly what they are protesting.
Here’s a sampling of responses to the question “What are you protesting by kneeling during te National Anthem?”
“Pretty sure it’s against Nazis – especially the white ones.”
“We’re protesting America becoming capitalistic instead of equal.”
“I’m protesting against Trump saying black lives don’t matter.”
“We’re against global warming and the police.”
“We’re showing the world that we care about, ahh, things such as… such as…ahhhhh, freedom from suppression?”
“Me and my fellow players are protesting the Constitution of Independence because of what it does to people of color.”
“We are displaying our right to stand up by kneeling for our beliefs.”

Not many people know that the US was involved in Vietnam as early as 1946. The Domino Theory was popular in those days, and the French were failing miserably.

Canfield’s series describes the players on both sides, busts some popular misconceptions and names names.

I can just imagine the furor among leftists. Wish I could sell tickets to watch the exploding heads (figuratively of course- I don’t want to be accused of threatening any snowflakes).
