[chime over laptop] [Herr D turns toward computer from chair he had been snoring in] Has your chin lifted now?
[startle reaction, notable pulse and respiration increase] Oh, hi, Shelob. [posture change: probable leaning forward, pause] Oh. [snicker] Yeah, chin's up. Thank you for asking. Is Trump's chin up? [shows pic]
[snort] His nose is, his dander is, but his numbers are down and his chin is out. This sounds anatomically difficult.
The mental efforts to keep swimming Denial are Olympian. Can you evaluate for blog? [pans Bishop Budde's words at bottom of screen on a loop]
Sure. [magnifies pic above in separate window] First sentence. Let's see. "So-called" is an outright lie. Trump knows she's a bishop. She was introduced that way. As to being "Radical Left," I have to try to be charitable, since I'M actually religious, even if Trump isn't. She didn't actually SAY anything radical at all, so that might be him screwing up and not actually lying. The second adverbial "hard line" doesn't make much sense, since it's backing another lie. We should count it as another mistake. "Trump hater" is not what she is. If anything, Bishop Budde sounded like a caring mother giving some sane and sound advice to a young man about to start doing a difficult job that might lead him away from a righteous path. Clearly, she is showing him Christian love. If he doesn't recognize it for what it is, maybe he doesn't have any of it? No, I can't believe he's stupid enough to call someone a hater who uses the word 'plea' correctly to describe their own words. So that's a lie. What is that up to? Lies 3; Logical Errors Or Lies 2. Bishop Budde has some notably conservative views.
In one sentence. Bang up start. Okay. Second sentence. [pause] Okay, that's an odd way to write that sentence, but I'm not here to talk about inconsistency of style. She didn't "bring her church" into politics at all. Trump did just by going in. He's a president now, and, historically, pastors of every kind have advised presidents early in their terms to set the tone, to guide them. And she did so, graciously. She used the word 'plea.' So, one lie and one logical error, because he really doesn't seem aware of history or how this presidency thing is SUPPOSED to work. 4; 3. "Aware of -- or to care about?"
Yeah, that's ambiguous. In the third sentence, he wrote "nasty in tone," "not compelling or smart." That's a simple three lies. No one who actually listened to her could possibly think she was nasty in tone. Well, let me think about that. [pause] If there was someone who was too poisoned with PTSD to correctly evaluate a woman's tone . . . maybe if Trump was abused by his mother or an aunt or a babysitter, I could believe that. So, if he comes forward and says he's a survivor, we could move that one to logical errors. As to smart? She obviously was. She was articulate and correct and wise. She was the smartest person speaking on the topic. Smarter than someone who feels the need to lie about it later. As for compelling? She had the POTUS and VPOTUS -- get this -- SQUIRMING IN THEIR SEATS. They looked like two little boys trying not to admit to their mom that they just stole some cookies before dinner. 7; 3.
The fourth sentence is one of those awkward constructions again. Maybe he's trying to be smooth? He said she "failed to mention" something that she was actually referencing. So, even though that's PROBABLY an attempt to lie, I'd say it could be just incompetence again. The facts are clear. Americans kill a LOT more Americans than immigrants do. Most immigrants are NOT criminals. They're just trying to get higher-paying jobs and more opportunities. They're capitalists like our own President. 7; 4. He is a known failed capitalist.
[snort] Four bankruptcies, right. Fifth sentence? "Many were deposited from jails and mental institutions" ? Shelob? Has any immigrant actually been DEPOSITED here from jails or mental institutions?" [3.0487623 second search] No recorded cases have made any reputable news source. Checking for synonyms. [6.2946001 second search] Percentile note: fewer immigrants need mental health services than Americans.
Where does this even come from? Noted debunked statements. Including reminder in plea's content.
So, he indirectly accused the bishop of lying too? While lying? How do you count this?
Let's be charitable and only call it one lie. Budde is obviously not planning on being liked for doing her job well, so she'll maintain her Christian demeanor by not seeking revenge for him acting this way toward her. 8; 4.
Sixth sentence, obvious lie again. We'll count it as only one, though we've had more crimes committed by elected officials than by immigrants. 9; 4.
Seventh sentence. Contains a lie and a criticism that I am not even going to check on. Her comments were NOT inappropriate, and I don't care enough about an Episcopal sermon to look it up, since I'm Quaker. Lies 9, Logical Errors (that might be lies) 4, Statements not cared about 1.
I will say, if he wanted excitement, why did he go to church? Reclassification: 10; 4.
Eighth sentence? He IS stupid enough to decide that someone doing a great job is doing poorly. Speaking truth to power is always someone doing a great job, especially if the speaker is gracious enough to do so respectfully. She did the best job anyone could have done. And she wasn't even specific. She just asked him to show MERCY. She didn't tell him HOW. That's a Christian thing. 10; 5.
Ninth sentence? She and her church are OWED apologies. From Trump and everyone who criticizes her for this. And probably everyone who enables Trump to continue acting the way he has been for far too long. 11; 5. More lies than sentences. Is there anything else?
Yes. There is one more. The biggest lie of all. Part of his sign-on is @realDonaldTrump. He tells too many lies to be considered 'real' at all. Perhaps that is why his real hair and skin look so unreal.
[snort] maybe--I'm gonna go sleep some more. [exits]
