SNOPES DEFENDS PRESIDENT TRUMP FROM THE NON-STOP LIES OF THE CORPORATE MEDIA

mapTrump-haters truly need professional help given the nature and scale of the bizarre lies they continue to try pushing about President Trump, our de facto Third Party President.

Snopes defended the President in an article titled, “The Lies of Donald Trump’s Critics, and How They Shape His Many Personas.”

(Map: In red are counties Trump took and in blue are counties Hillary took)

As for Snopes, here are some excerpts and the link:

 From Snopes:

What’s remarkable is the extent to which false claims about the President revolve around body language, nonverbal gestures and symbolism, all phenomena that are notoriously open to interpretation. These lies and misrepresentations are also often based on snapshots — visual evidence presented without proper context.

Take, for example, the claim that Trump was the only world leader at a G7 summit in May not to take notes, based on a photograph posted to Twitter by French President Emannuel Macron. Here Trump was portrayed as unprepared and out of his depth on the world stage, with a “ten-second attention span”.

However, the claim was entirely untrue, with other images and video of the meeting showing that Trump did indeed have notes and a pen. Not only that, but the very image used to make the false claim clearly shows two other world leaders sitting with no note-taking paraphernalia. In this case, even the cherry-picked evidence chosen to make the point undermines it.

They also debunked the Democrat claim that Trump flipped the bird to Italian PM Paolo Gentiloni:

Except that he didn’t. The original source of the claim is revealing — the Twitter account of GiveHimTheFinger.com, an anti-Trump website that encourages his opponents to send the White House postcards designed as a middle finger.

A longer video of the discussion shows that Trump and Gentiloni spoke cordially before the incident, which undermines the implicit logic behind the claim — that Trump was expressing anger or disdain for Gentiloni. Indeed, no one has ever explained why Trump supposedly flipped him the bird.

Another terrific bit here:

And then there’s Newsweek’s claim that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi “evaded” Trump’s “notorious… bone-crunching power handshake”, about which there has been a seemingly endless supply of every imaginable kind of analysis.

“In his visit to the White House Monday,” wrote Tom Porter in June,  “Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi neatly sidestepped the challenge, swooping in for two bear hugs with the president during a joint press conference in the Rose Garden.” What’s missing from this account, in a theme repeated throughout this collection, is historical context, either by deliberate omission or due to the author’s lack of awareness.

Modi, as has long been noted, is famous for hugging world leaders, a gesture he bestowed upon Trump’s predecessor Barack Obama, as well as the last two presidents of France, among others. Rather than being an example of yet another world leader “fighting back” (as the Guardian’s Jonathan Freedland has described what are essentially firm handshakes), this was an example of India’s prime minister continuing to greet another world leader in the way he always has.

MUSLIM ATROCITY ROUNDUP: JULY 17th

Qandeel BalochMUSLIM VIOLENCE AWARENESS YEAR CONTINUES.

First off, a tribute to the memory of REAL feminist Qandeel Baloch, a pioneer for women in the Muslim World itself. She was murdered in what Muslim fascists call “honor killings” a year ago.  

Clueless American emotional cripples who pretend to be college students (aka Democrats) try to pretend that their lives of privilege on campus are “just as dangerous” as the lives of women in TRUE peril.

AND BY THE WAY, DEMOCRAT ENABLERS OF MUSLIM FASCIST VIOLENCE ARE SO CLUELESS THEY ARE MORE AND MORE TRYING TO GIVE CREDIT TO ISLAM FOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF THE PRE-ISLAMIC ARAB CULTURES OF THE MIDDLE EAST. One percenter Carlos Slim’s New York Times is especially guilty of that idiocy.

At any rate here are just a FEW of the most recent atrocities boasted about by Muslim fascists.

July 12th: Maiduguri, Nigeria – Muslim fascist suicide bombers killed NINETEEN innocent people and injured TWENTY-THREE more.

July 13th: Waza, Cameroon – Two female Muslim suicide bombers killed FIFTEEN innocent people and injured FORTY-TWO more. Continue reading

MOTHER JONES: MELANIA TRUMP IS THE GREATEST FIRST LADY SINCE JACKIE KENNEDY

Melania over MichelleWith the mean-spirited slug Michelle Obama slithering back into public view this week, THE Mother Jones – Mary Harris Jones – decided to grant another posthumous interview to Balladeer’s Blog.

Balladeer’s Blog: You seem excited about something, “Mother” Jones.

Mother Jones: I am! I was admiring the way First Lady Melania Trump – who speaks more languages than both Obamas – has been dazzling the world lately!

mother-jonesBB: Now that you mention it, she HAS been, and it’s been fun watching Trump-haters froth at the mouth over it.

MJ: The people who hate the Trumps are the same wealthy pigs who hated me when I was alive. Anyway, Melania’s charismatic tour de force made me reflect on what a nice change of pace she is from that bitter, frowning sow Michelle Obama. Did you see Melania with those children in Italy? Wonderful! Michelle would have been chiding the children about “white privilege” or some such thing. Continue reading

SHIVA AYYADURAI, INDIAN-AMERICAN, ON WHY HE VOTED FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP AND ON HIS SENATE RUN

Shiva AyyaduraiShiva Ayyadurai, the man who is credited with inventing email among several other life-improving creations such as EchoMail, Systems Health, and CytoSolve, has announced that he is challenging Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) for her seat in the 2018 elections. 

Mr Ayyadurai, like me and so many other former Democrats, has stated he grew disgusted with the Democrats as long ago as 1984 when he saw them as betrayers of the people. When he was at MIT he even started a student newspaper dedicated to exposing the corruption and failures of BOTH Democrat and Republican office-holders! Obviously he’s Balladeer’s Blog’s kind of thinker. 

And just as obviously the emotional cripples who pretend to be college students in America now would have made his newspaper refrain from criticizing any Democrats.

The link to the full item is below. First some excerpts:

“He recalled the discrimination he and his family suffered under India’s caste system, a harrowing experience he says has shaped him into who he is today.” (Note from Balladeer: And I’d love to hear his thoughts on America’s caste system of Bloated Rich Pigs and their bought and paid for Democrats and Republicans trying to lord it over the rest of us.)

“I saw Trump as a necessary force to disrupt a broken system that was no longer serving the American people,” ... “I’ve always had a deep distaste, since 1984, for both Republicans and Democrats.” He said he’d initially shown some interest in the Democratic Party, but he broke from them that year, after Jesse Jackson, like Bernie Sanders, sold out the populist movement. “Trump never sold out his movement,” he said.

“He saw Trump’s victory as ushering in real change and said Trump’s victory was “bound to occur…. You can’t get away with fooling people over and over again. The truth is what intellectual and Hollywood Elites are upset at … [It] is not Trump, but that they lost control over everyday people, who they discounted as inferior — a lower caste.”

Ayyadurai said he wants to “be of service to everyday people who are getting bamboozled and lied to by the same people who claim to be their saviors. Continue reading

PRESIDENT TRUMP: THIS SAYS IT ALL

People who don't like Trump

Presidents are not supposed to be insecure children who obsess over who likes them and who doesn’t. United States President Donald Trump understands this. The weak, inept and crooked little man named Barack Obama did not.

SILVERADO (1985)

Top Frontierado Movie

Top Frontierado Movie

Frontierado is coming up Friday, August 4th!

SILVERADO (1985) – I’ve never made any secret about how Silverado is, to me, THE official movie of the Frontierado holiday. The film has all the high spirits and family appeal of Star Wars plus the well-choreographed action scenes of Raiders of the Lost Ark. On top of that Silverado features all the  highly stylized gunplay of the best Spaghetti Westerns but NOT the mud, blood, sweat and brutality of that genre.

This movie is pure escapism and features the kind of preternaturally accurate gunslingers that I jokingly  describe as “Jedi Knights in the Olllld West”. These guys (as well as most of the villains) can literally shoot the needles off a cactus, simultaneously draw and shoot with pin-point accuracy and can just “sense” when some low-down hombre might be pulling a gun on them, even with Continue reading

MUSLIM ATROCITY ROUNDUP: JULY 10th

Islamophobia posterIt is ALWAYS Muslims and ONLY Muslims who commit large numbers of terrorist attacks in every country they spread to. Countries around the world NEVER have this problem with Hindu immigrants or Buddhist immigrants, etc. Democrats embrace and support ONLY the most violent Muslims.  

Here at Balladeer’s Blog I have covered many, many Muslims and Muslim groups who WANT to live in the 21st Century and who DO NOT want to impose their belief system on others. Such Muslims get scorned by the Democrats and the political left around the world.

Democrats often won’t even let such Muslims speak on our college campuses here in the U.S. The Democrats encourage the notion that ONLY Muslims who hate the Western World and who want to live in the 7th Century are “authentic” voices. They dismiss freedom-minded Muslims as “Western Triumphalists” who have “internalized Western Oppression.”

islam-and-violenceMeanwhile Democrats, Labour and similar political parties give license to the most violent Muslim fascists to commit whatever outrages they like with the full knowledge that they (Democrats, Labour, etc) will lend legitimacy to those outrages.     

Here are just a few of the recent atrocities committed by the most homophobic, misogynistic and otherwise intolerant religion in the world at this particular time:

June 23rd: Tal Adda, Pakistan: Once the flood of Muslim immigrants reaches sufficient numbers the host country also sees more and more violent attacks of Muslims on Muslims who don’t happen to worship the exact same way their attackers do. Muslim country Pakistan yet again saw such an attack as Lashkar-e-Jhangvi, one of the affiliates in the Global Muslim Fascist Murder Machine, used bombs to kill SEVENTY-TWO innocent people and injure TWO HUNDRED SIXTY-ONE more.

Yeah, who needs to vet Muslim immigrants to see which murderous faction they might be affiliated with?

June 28th: Marawi, Philippines – Muslim fascists killed SEVENTEEN innocent people for not being Muslims. COEXISTENCE! Continue reading

PRESIDENT TRUMP STILL SUPPORTING THE VICTIMS OF ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT CRIME

Trump and victims familiesUnited States President Donald Trump – our de facto Third Party President – continues to fix so many of the problems caused by the disastrous Barack Obama. This pic features him with the loved ones of victims of illegal immigrant crime.

Obama or Hillary would have instead posed with the rapists and murderers who are in the U.S. illegally.

Trump-o-crats and Re-Trump-licans are enjoying the way this “Richard Channing from Falcon Crest” President constantly trolls our insane media and sticks it to the corrupt Democrats and Republicans.

Mascot with demo and repub heads

Trump-haters continue to froth at the mouth and ineffectually gnaw at the President’s ankles. They also try selling us on their biased “polls.” Uh, yeah. The same polls that claimed Hillary was going to become President. (LMFAO)

Pieces of garbage like Republican Paul Ryan and Democrat Nancy Pelosi fall all over themselves opposing President Trump, who is doing more for the working class and the poor in this country than any president since possibly Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
