Trump Reminds Me of My Last Boss From HELL – Created Chaos & Nothing Got Done

Donald Trump reminds me of my last “Boss from Hell” before I left the Fortune 500 for good.  I had worked in our group for over two years for another General Counsel, and all was smooth and professional.  Then he left and they picked a man from another group to take that spot. Suddenly chaos erupted.

Before I knew it, the new General Counsel had initiated a “war” with one of the divisions we did the legal work for.  Suddenly, every day he would pull me into his office and spend an hour or more telling me how “stupid” the division president and officers were, Every day!  Since I was the only other attorney for the group he was wasting my time.

Trump seems to have the same playbook. Every day he finds someone he has to insult, then wastes everyone’s time listening to him bloviate how “smart” he is and how “stupid” they are, repeat ad nauseum.  Work was delayed and nothing good came out of it; only bad feelings. NOTHING got done as a result.  Our system would become even more dysfunctional, if that's possible.

If Trump were elected, I’d expect the same chaos that would kill our country as we spent day after day listening to Herr Trump stir up another enemy to denounce (like a fellow Republican) while saying “I have such good words, my words are the best words” and other total gibberish that sounds like a student writing a paper for a course in which he never bothered to read the book.

For example: When asked by GOP Senators if he supported Article 1 of the Constitution, the would-be president promptly said “yes” but, like the bullshitting student, promptly added, “I also support Article 9 and 12!”  Oops. If he had read the Constitution, he would know that there are only 7 – not 9 or 12 – articles!  He runs for president without bothering to know anything.

In my workplace things got so bad that finally our Group President called in my boss and said “Knock it off!”  But who can tell a U.S. president acting like that to: “Knock it off?”  Only the public can by NOT electing someone who declared in an interview that “Putin would never go into Ukraine” and when informed by the journalist that Russia had been in the Ukraine for two years, Trump tries to cover his ignorance by blurting more gibberish of the know nothing student: “I haven’t been there; it’s a mess…yada, yada, yada.” Spare us from stupid!

How can having a president this ignorant help America succeed?  Having an email mistake with classified information in this day and age is not on the same dangerous level as a candidate openly encouraging Putin to take over Eastern Europe and condoning the spread of nuclear weapons and backing off our allies in NATO!

We don’t need a Putin patsy in the White House.  I know 12-year-olds more qualified to be president than this “Boss from Hell” who is totally ignorant of the Constitution and has a dangerous personality defect, low-life gutter mouth and total lack of decency that he willingly attacked a former POW and a Muslim Gold Star family while claiming he “sacrificed” by dodging the draft and avoiding a venereal disease (he said it, I didn’t make it up.)

 I spent my career promoting American-made products globally. Trump is promising jobs yet had his products made in 12 countries overseas – creating jobs overseas, not here, while ripping people off from small businesses in the U.S. who supplied his casinos. I admit his talent of bankrupting casinos, where the deck is stacked in favor of the house, is a nearly impossible feat!

America is better than this. Don’t elect the “Boss from hell” who has publicly said how much he admires ruthless dictators, including Saddam, Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jung Un – Trump was so impressed that Kim would kill his own uncle to establish his authority.

We don’t need the narcissist sickness Trump would bring to the presidency.

ISIS Tracked Brussels Nuke Official - How A Nuke Could End Democracy

President Obama just had a Nuclear Security summit -- at the same time we learn that a Brussels Nuke Official was shadowed by a ISIS member in Brussels (the Prime Minister's residence was also found on the computer in a trash can that an ISIS member had). What was the plan? Kidnap him? Attack the nuclear facility?

This is eerily like a "fiction" book I started writing about a (nuclear) terrorist attack on the United States, back when I was a laid off international negotiator in the 80's oil bust.  "Fire Over Arabia" was interrupted by Saddam's invasion of Kuwait. However, since in those day it took a year to produce and distribute a paper book (no ebooks!) publishers passed on it. Why? They said "in a year when the book comes out Saddam will be gone."  Well, he was there another 10 years before Bush invaded so it never went into print. But the plot did turn from fiction to non-fiction.

I documented the potential of an attack on us in a video I made (in 1994) with a weapons expert from the Reagan administration that is now posted on YouTube entitled "Nuclear Terrorism: Could It Happen Here?" 
I produced and hosted it a year after the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center that killed six people (no one paid attention until the next attack on 911. Here is a photo of me taken about that time (proof). It aired many times in Houston. I sent it to Pres. Bush 9 months before 911. No response.

                                         (I was much thinner then)

This is important because of the spread of small tactical nuclear warheads that are more easily concealed and transported (like a 'suitcase nuke') versus an ICBM missile in a silo.  The U.S. military at one point had a nuclear mortar, believe it or not. It was called the "Davy Crockett." The problem was setting off a nuke that close to the troops firing it! 

Today's ISIS would love it as a suicide weapon.

If you want to have the hairs on the back of your neck feel electric, consider this. PAKISTAN is the only Muslim country that is nuclear. In fact, it has over 100 nuclear missiles!  Compare that to NONE in Iran, the country everyone is focused on).  Tell me again why people are so goofy not to see the real threat to American security is what happens in Pakistan, which just had a suicide bomber blow up women and children on Easter, most were Christians but it also killed their Muslims friends in attendance.  These terrorists have been given a free pass by the government. They want those nukes. Imagine ISIS with access to those.

The ODD thing about the summit is that the second largest nuclear country in the world didn't show, Russia. What's Putin's game now? He is like dealing with a Cobra snake.

Terrorism is not going to bring down America, unless a terrorist with a nuclear  decapitates our entire government if it was set off on Capitol Hill. It is possible and as long as small nuclear weapons are available it poses a major threat against America and our European allies.

I discuss this issue as part of "Better Times Ahead April Fool."  Follow us here or on Facebook as this situation continues to play out. Our security depends on that.
