The test, which came on the 68th anniversary of North Korea's founding, “is yet one more example of Hillary Clinton's catastrophic failures as secretary of state," Trump communications aide Jason Miller said in a statement. "Clinton promised to work to end North Korea’s nuclear program as secretary of state, yet the program has only grown in strength and sophistication. Hillary Clinton’s North Korean policy is just one more calamitous diplomatic failure from a failed secretary of state.” Read more: http://www.politico.com/story/2016/...orth-korean-nuclear-test-227942#ixzz4Jmq6el6A Follow us: @politico on Twitter | Politico on Facebook
RT can be both a total propaganda news channel for Russia, or often it is also very objective with first rate reporters. The problem is consistency. The Bern was on RT:
As 3,000 People Were Dying, Trump Bragged About How 9/11 Attacks Were Good For Him Fifteen years ago on this very day, the current Republican nominee for president Donald Trump bragged about his 71-story building being the tallest building in downtown Manhattan after the twin towers of the World Trade Center collapsed. Here’s what your GOP nominee had to say during a 2001 live phone interview with WWOR on 9/11, on the very day of the terrorist attack, unearthed by Michael Kruse at Politico Magazine: “40 Wall Street actually was the second-tallest building in downtown Manhattan, and it was actually, before the World Trade Center, was the tallest—and then, when they built the World Trade Center, it became known as the second-tallest. And now it’s the tallest.” Trump said this as people were dying. Donald Trump’s propensity to see things entirely through the warped lens of his own self image isn’t a new thing. A thing like this could be forgiven were it but a gaffe. But Trump has a systemic problem with not only foot-in-mouth disease, but with being incapable of thinking and seeing others. Trump is quite simply blind to the existence of others unless they reflect upon him. Yet another example of Trump’s stunning lack of humanity regarding 9/11 is the New York Daily News’ exclusive story that Trump claim that he used $150,000 in 9/11 government money to help people is “unfounded.” That money was designated for small businesses to help them recover after 9/11. Here’s the money quote from Trump in response to attacks in April of this year that he took money meant for small businesses, “It was probably a reimbursement for the fact that I allowed people, for many months, to stay in the building, use the building and store things in the building. I was happy to do it and to this day I am still being thanked for the many people I helped. The value of what I did was far greater than the money talked about, much of which was sent automatically to building owners in the area.” So… not such a small business, but also, not used to help people it turns out. The News obtained documents that revealed the truth. Trump used those funds for “rent loss,” “cleanup” and “repair”, even though he also stated that his building wasn’t impacted by “what happened” to the World Trade Center, though the News notes he said this before businesses were shut down in the aftermath. But Trump did not use the funds to help people. Even on 9/11, before the smoke had cleared, Trump was bragging about his building now being the tallest. And after the smoke cleared, Trump found more ways to make 9/11 good for him, by profiting off of the government’s attempt to help small business owners recover from 9/11 and then misleading the public by claiming he took the money to help people. http://www.politicususa.com/2016/09/11/15-years-ago-donald-trump-bragged-building-tallest.html
One theory is that women are more compassionate and have greater empathy is because they tend to read more fiction (think it through). I tend to agree with this theory. The question is, do power hungry leaders tend not to read fiction because they see it as pointless, or do they see it as pointless because they are broken psychologically to begin with? It is not just political leaders, business leaders tend to the same meme. Hitler, Lenin, and Stalin A Study in Personality's Impact on History [Excerpted from a draft of a book written with Renato Alarcon and Edward Foulks on Personality Disorders and Culture] The other area where personality has made its stamp is that of the great leaders and agitators of history. Would the world be a different place today if Adolf Hitler or Josef Stalin had greater capacity for empathy, less grandiosity, and less suspiciousness? Or supposing Czar Nicholas II of Russia had had more resolve and less vacillation? Millions of lives were destroyed at least in part because of the personality styles of key historical figures. Leo Tolstoy, however, argued that personalities don’t matter at the historical level. Someone would have risen in Napoleon's stead given the same historical and cultural conditions in 19th century France. We make the mistake of ascribing to leaders, he claimed, the power to lead when in reality all they are is figureheads representing the powerful forces and underlying conditions that make their entrance onto the historical stage not only possible but inevitable (Tolstoy, 1866). To restate this in cultural terms, Tolstoy might have viewed some cultures as pathoplastic, leading to the inevitable rise of a dictator or emperor.... http://www.vakkur.com/hx/hit_len_stal.html
September 12, 2016, 12:10 pm Bill Clinton’s CIA chief joins Trump campaign By Jonathan Easley Bill Clinton’s former CIA chief, James Woolsey, will act as an adviser to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s campaign. Woolsey, who served as director of the CIA from 1993 to 1995 and describes himself as a life-long Democrat, praised Trump’s commitment to ending defense budget cuts from sequestration. He said he can’t support Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton because of the controversy surrounding her use of a private email server as secretary of State. “She demonstrated a complete lack of understanding and an inability to lead the agency she headed in such a way as to maintain its mission and security," Woolsey said in a statement. “Based on the emails thus far released we know that Secretary Clinton also lacks the ability to lead her senior managers while complying with and maintaining the basic protocols designed to protect our government’s sensitive and classified information. Mr. Trump understands the magnitude of the threats we face and is holding his cards close to the vest.” Trump and Clinton spent the last week rolling out endorsements from military officials and national security experts as they sought to burnish their commander in chief credentials. Trump has been bitten in the past by prominent former Republican military officials — most of whom come from the ranks of the two Bush administrations — who have thrown their support behind Clinton. http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box...-bill-clintons-cia-chief-joins-trump-campaign
I am hearing Trump even used the money to buy himself a helmet and to buy a six foot portrait of himself, for tens of thousands of dollars, all on the charities dime. Absolutely astonishing. Washington Post’s David Fahrenthold Exposes The Fraudulent Nature Of Trump’s Charitable Foundation Farenthold: Trump Has “Engineered A Way To Look Like He's Being Charitable Without Actually Spending A Dollar Out Of His Own Pocket” http://mediamatters.org/video/2016/...t-nature-trump-s-charitable-foundation/213009
You get your panties in a twist over ten thousand dollars while the Clintons commit a fraud worth 2 billion. Get real.

Even offered a trillion $, Trump will not release his tax returns : if he were to do so, all Americans would raise in arms against him. Simple as that. Trump is not a complete idiot to not know the consequences the return of his tax returns will do.
