In Defense Of Liars, Thieves, And Scumbags
We live in a world filled with those who are dishonest, untrustworthy, or act unethically. Just because you don't think so doesn't make it any less true. And in that world filled with those types of individuals, there are people who would still defend them to their last breath. It's a strange anomaly we are all witnessing more and more. But what can we do about it?

Trump Touts Third Term.
Trump must be one of the most boastful men on Earth. In his dreams, he probably sees himself as Superman, not unlike that Spitting Image puppet of Ronald Reagan in the 80s, a Genesis video "Land of Confusion" where Reagan rides a Triceratops putting everything right. In the video, Reagan is dressed as Superman and a cowboy. He wakes up next to his wife Nancy and realises it was all an illusional dream. Strange irony, really, as Trump has a picture of Ronald Reagan in the Oval Office. And we know while Trump doesn't literally think he is Reagan come again (although that wouldn't surprise me!), he is certainly an admirer of Reagan.
