BREAKING: Trump Tells NBC It's Possible the Democratic Party Is Harboring a Secret Satanic, Pedophilic, Cannibalistic Cult, and That "Nobody Knows" If It's True or Not; Statement Suggests President Trump Is Suffering From Severe Delusions and Is a Clear and Present Danger to U.S.
Let me say this as clearly as possible: you *cannot* have a man with his finger on the nuclear trigger who believes the Democratic Party may be harboring a secret satanic, pedophilic, cannibalistic cult. That is a clear and present danger to every American and to the whole world.
Not only has Trump repeatedly RTed QAnon accounts, amplified QAnon sentiments, called QAnon adherents patriots, acknowledged he's aware of their beliefs ("anti-pedophilia"), but when repeatedly given a chance to say no such Democratic cult exists he refused and said nobody knows.
Do *not* play footsie with Trump's words on QAnon: he was crystal clear with NBC that he believes it's possible the Democratic Party harbors a satanic, pedophilic, cannibalistic cult—and *repeatedly* rejected the idea that there isn't such a cult while saying that "nobody knows."

I wrote 2 days ago that Trump *knew* a *long time ago* that Giuliani was involved in a Russian disinformation campaign. It's almost like I wrote a book called Proof of Corruption about this. Glad it's now breaking news on CBS. Proof of Corruption became a bestseller in September.
PS/ To be clear, Trump knew *well* before December 2019—as detailed, using many major-media sources, in Proof of Corruption. Today's breaking news is that it was December 2019; tomorrow's news will say "summer 2019"; eventually everyone will catch up with the book: "spring 2018."
PS2/ And yes, I'm talking about spring 2018. Media is so many months—even years—behind the curatorial research in the Proof series that it's releasing as "breaking news" Trump knowing about a plot he knew about a year and a half earlier than CBS News now says. This is incredible.
I've been thinking about this lately because my time as a political journalist is almost done. I've been planning to move on for a long time.
(Note: I'd add my recent chat with Russell Brand to the list above, but it's not out yet. So I'll add the below.) theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
I know some will feel put out that I won't be spending November obsessing over each new Trump atrocity. But I just can't. I've given 5+ years of my life to covering this madman, and it's taken a toll. My work on Trump's life from 1987 to mid-fall 2020 will have to stand as it is.
A couple weeks back I wrote here that our three year-old rescue hound Quinn doesn't know how to sit properly. Some of you gently took me to task, as you thought that the picture I offered wasn't a very good representation of the problem. How about this one, dog lovers of America?
PS/ (Quinn is a she.)
PS2/ (This is, as you can probably tell, the oldest and dirtiest chair in the house. But we can't get rid of it because both Quinn and Scout are obsessed with it, treat it as their "home base," and couldn't bear to be parted with it. And we would basically do anything for them.)
Twitter has deleted, so far today, 150 followers from my feed out of (presumably) some sort of security necessity. Virtually every day, 100 to 300 followers are dutifully deleted. About 2,000 weekly. But Kremlin disinformation? Now *that* can freely appear *anywhere* on Twitter.
Can you imagine if Twitter policed Kremlin disinformation as fanatically as it polices the follower counts of Trump critics? If it removed one Kremlin-pushed "news" story from its platform for every one follower it removes from this (and many other) feeds?
That would be amazing.
Twitter has never explained to its users how it identifies followers that need to be removed from certain accounts—and I don't mean one at a time, I mean *mass purges* of 20 to 100 followers *all at once* that occur over and over throughout the day. Every *single* day. See below:
What's been lost on my Twitter feed in five years of covering a madman who's destroying America is any sense of what I love. What makes me happy. One of those things? Alt-art. You almost never see it here, because Trump pushes it all out. Can anyone guess what you're seeing here?
(PS) I'd also love to hear from all of you what *you* think you've lost from your Twitter feed because of Trump—i.e., things you used to or normally would write about on social media but have felt unable to do so because Trump is a stormcloud over America every second of the day.
(PS2) So this additional piece of alt-art should help—a lot—if you're about my age and need a refresher on a glorious piece of lost 1980s multimedia.
