What Did President Trump Do Now?

David Icke is the guy who believes we live in an alternate reality projected by Venus or some other planet, right? Heard about him from my friend.

Yeah, you kind of need some kind of scientific credentials for me to believe it. I've realized that 9 times out of 10 the dot connectors are literally just making **** up. A lot of it comes from them giving our government too much credit. Not everything done in government is a well calculated plan. There is a lot of human error and a lot of flat out stupidity in government. And they always lead the dots to aliens, demons or other worldly puppet masters. Because of all the people in the world it's these random dudes with no background being in government, the science community or historical studies claiming to know a secret truth that's so secret that everybody knows about it though they can never really prove it.

And people eat it up because they want to believe it. Makes things a bit more exciting knowing 'the truth', right? Also makes for a lucrative career.

And yeah, infomercials don't work 9 times out of ten. There is no easy secret to losing weight, there is no anti aging formula and no pills will make your dick bigger. They are selling you stardust.

There was nothing like working for the government to prove to me that everyone there is so collectively incompetent, something on the scale of what conspiracy theorists talk about could never happen. The government employs nearly 22 million people (and that's just civilians). These conspiracies are usually so intricate that hundreds to thousands of people would have to be in on it. You just can't keep everyone in a group of people that large silent.

Nixon approves of this sentiment.

Nobody wants cuts on education. Though, 5 years ago I did the math and we typically spend more money on education than other countries with better results. There for we should fix the system rather than pouring more money into a broken one. Like, getting rid of no child left behind.

You got them on climate change though. And I to this day have no ****ing clue what the Republicans want out of healthcare. I don't even think they know, they just hate what we have because Obama's name was slapped on it.
