    If HGTV stood for HG Tudor Vision, I might buy a tele.

    NO political leader cares about the little people. Thats why they made damned sure they arent one. Duh.

  3. Before this became a movie political review…..
    I got chastised once for stacking my bread plate on my dinner plate with knife and fork turned down across. My narc boyfriend said, don’t you ever do that again. We pay people to do that. You are an embarrassment.

    He also told me once his father scolded him for ordering lobster bisque as it was lunch time and looked pretentious. Must not be flashy, that’s for the rich, not the wealthy. People wonder how their kids get messed up…hmmm.

    You have to corrupt. Why?

    1. HG Tudor says:

      It is what I know and what works for me.

  5. Entertainment says:

    HG,
    Thanks for suggesting the movie. I remember seeing an advertisement and made a mental note to look for it in theatres and I don’t think on the states they did much to promote. Besides, I would never miss a movie with Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt. This is like missing March Ides in reference to George Clooney and Ryan Gosling. Also, a eye opener.

    It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so. Mark Twain

    1. Entertainment says:

      Now I realize the comment to watch it twice may have been a blanket statement. What I didn’t get if Vegas covered their for the collapse.

      1. 1jaded1 says:

        He was. As much as I adore Bale, Carrell, he stole the show for me.

        HG. Do you think we learned from our miatakes? A coworker and I saw this years before it happened, but no one listened. We shook our heads. Since little punishment was meted, except for the fall guy, how likely is it to happen again?

        1. HG Tudor says:

          No.

          It will happen again, you see, the thing about money is that it makes people do things that they might not ordinarily do.

    2. HG Tudor says:

      Brad Pitt doesn’t look like Brad Pitt in this film. Ryan Gosling plays a good part, as does Steve Carrell, although as ever Christian Bale is excellent.

      1. 1jaded1 says:

        It was an excellent cast. Bale exhibits his acting range. Carrell was the ultimate empath.

        1. Entertainment says:

          She definitely was, patient and kind. I rarely notice the traits of empaths. It doesn’t stand out I think because it’s supposed to be normal in my small world.

      2. Entertainment says:

        You are right Brad doesn’t look like his self in movie neither did he in money ball. Christian Bale was great, I like him but not a very big fan😊 Ryan Gosling, if he played a gardener role I would love him. 😊 People knew there’s was going to be a bubble, many were excited to qualify for homes which they knew they couldnt afford. I saw monthly payments go from 1900 per month to 3200. The
        genius part waging against the AA rated companies although it back fired due to the securities crashed too. I love Brad Pitt he saved the day.😊 Goes to show as I have witnessed in the past you can wage a bet on almost everything even against countries in Las Vegas.

      3. Love says:

        Christian Bale lost his allure in my eyes after his meltdown.
        The animation of it is hilarious. There is profanity. Rated PG-13!

        1. HG Tudor says:

          He went up in my estimation after his rant. He was entirely justified.

          The technician or whoever he was, was know for being something of a tool anyway. When a scene is being filmed, it is protocol for everyone to remain still (other than those in the scene) so as to not distract the actors. If you are “in the zone” for your scene and carrying out your role and somebody is moving around and distracting you, it is annoying and bad-mannered. Bale was justified in his response. Other people supported his stance and he cleared the air with the individual afterwards as well, which was gracious of him.

      4. Entertainment says:

        HG,
        Will she (Prime Minister) allow me to reside their for 4 years? I will proudly join the Labours Party. I wish we could get our lazy politicians to stand when in agreement to clarify is 60 or 100 hundred people were in agreement. First day in office he goes to twitter about how many people where in attendance. It will be interesting to see what he has to say about the meeting with her.

        1. HG Tudor says:

          It is the Home Secretary you need to have on side. I will have a quiet word at the next face to face.

          1. Entertainment says:

            I’m obliged 😊

      5. Love says:

        Thanks Mr. Tudor. Sounds like you’ve done some acting. Maybe you really are a famous English actor!
        Did the video make you laugh at all?
        Excuse my language, but I laugh so hard each time I watch it, I almost tinkle in my pants!

        1. Entertainment says:

          Love,

          The way HGTV, covered Bale although everything he said was true. I wonder if he’s not Christian Bale🤔just kidding Bale could do the accent.

  6. AH OH says:

    This says it all. A good friend posted this on FB…..

    A nightmare is hopefully over. Our last two fiscally irresponsible big government leaders greatly increased our debt. #43 added 5 trillion and #44 added 11 trillion. Yes we essentially have a $20 trillion debt. Bush left it at $30k per citizen and Obama has left us at $69,340 per citizen.
    I believe in a strong military, liberals protested Bush policies, but were silent while Obama dropped over 100,000 bombs on the middle east. In Iraq alone over 1 million people have been killed. To put that in terms of the the US it would = 162 million people. A 9/11 everyday for 15 years, and that is just one country.
    We have the lowest labor participation rate in 27 years. There are now 95 million people (18-65) that could work but are not. The important number to look at is actual labor hours. 2007-2015 we saw no change in labor hours, but added 20 million people of working age. So many millineals don’t have jobs or only have part time jobs. They make 20% less than the same job 20 years ago.
    Home ownership is down 5.6%
    Poverty has increased 3.5%
    Incomes are down 2.3%
    15 million more people are on food stamps that is a 39% increase.
    This is the reality of the last 8 years, and why many of us voted for a strong businessman to turn things around.

  7. AH OH says:

    Entertainment. Showing your lack of Knowledge.
    The bunker reference was a joke. But I do know many with the bullets, and they paid for them.
    I never served in the Military, but my father did and was in three wars so you can post what you are posting. I have friends in the service or has served in the service.
    I paid my taxes, just paid my quarterly on my birthday. I have a feeling I pay way more into the system than you do. The write off with losses means an investment, a large one. You also can have write offs with donations to charities and such.

    What do you know of my background? Ask me as I am very honest and have no issue. And the fact you say you “heard” is curious.

    1. Entertainment says:

      I don’t need you to educate me on tax laws. Assuming you are telling the truth about your loss and profits doesn’t make you a very savvy business person. If every quarter I reported on my business taxes that I loss more than I invested of course I will benefit. Additionally, I have a full time job in the public sector and the only exemptions I claim is my property taxes and a few work related travel expenses. I have direct debits coming from my account monthly to support several non profits. There are set limits on how much you can claim on donations. Again, if you are dishonest you can claim the max. I doubt very seriously if you have 2 kids you are not paying more into the system than I am. Nevada and California taxes are completely different. This will be last response to your irrelevant ass.

      1. AH OH says:

        Really? Lets compare Tax bills.I can’t write off my kids as they work. They are 28,26,24.
        I am a very honest person and it is to a fault.

      2. AH OH says:

        The statement of not being savvy because I had business losses. Well I guess most of the nation was not savvy. During the financial crisis, I know so many people in business for over 20 years loose their life work. Many people lost their entire life savings. So this alone is an IGNORANT STATEMENT!!!!!

      3. AH OH says:

        Public Sector? You work for the government?

      4. AH OH says:

        Yes you have a state income tax. But they get us elsewhere, trust me. The politicians get their pound of flesh. Our property taxes are much higher then what you pay in Cali.

      5. AH OH says:

        Really, you went to name calling? Figures, Liberals are known for this.

    2. Entertainment says:

      There’s no debating with you. California is the only State that Hillary won at least over 75%of the vote. There’s not a shed of evidence that support he won the popular vote. In fact she had over 2 million more votes than that man. California Governor Brown has made it clear that he wouldn’t support any of that man’s laws especially the immigration. California, would like to separate from the USA during his 6 months in office. Also, the bullet ridden bunker was a poor attempt at a joke. Considering what our service men and women go through for this country very poor taste and disrespect to them.o see the similarities in what Hilary mentioned about his supporters.

      1. AH OH says:

        I do not think I wrote bullet ridden, I think it was bullet filled. Meaning having rounds, as this is how liberals look at Trump supporters.
        I would have no issue California becoming part of Mexico.
        Can I just tell you how many of my neighbors moved from California due to the high taxes. Please Please fight to remove Cali from the U.S. Will you be getting your own ARMY too?
        This is ridiculous and not a new thought, just saying. Cali has been trying for years.

      2. AH OH says:

        The 2 million votes came out of California.

      3. AH OH says:

        Did you serve in the Military? Did your family serve? I am of Military servants and also a DAR. How about you?

  8. AH OH says:

    The deplorable that I am, I came out from my bullet filled bunker to seek the truth on my home town having odds on Trump. It is not Las Vegas Casinos but online offshore betting that is running this. SMH again Fake News.

    1. Entertainment says:

      Born and raised in Las Vegas it all makes sense. Bullet filled bunker? I am assuming you are alluding to the fact that you are serving in the military paid for by those of us who pay taxes . Let’s say now I have heard a little more regarding you background I will give you 10.00.

      1. AH OH says:

        Also, I was born and raised in Las Vegas.

      2. AH OH says:

        Sorry typo, I was NOT born and raised in Las Vegas.

  9. AH OH says:

    I will take any bet from any of you. How about this, I bet tenK he will not be going anywhere. Put your money where your mouth is!

    1. Love says:

      I agree with you Ah Oh. He isn’t going anywhere.

  10. AH OH says:

    Do you really think he is the only narc who is in power or has been the President? OMG!!!

    WTF!

    Please, can you just come together with the hope he does well and he does take care of the country and her citizens? He really does love his nation and I really believe he has come to appreciate the people of this nation.

    You are betting against yourself. I did not support Obama second round, the first round I did but I did not wish or think of his failure. Their failure is our failure. We are one nation, act like it.

    We can all have different opinions but to want failure for your own President is just ludicrous.

    1. MsSevyn says:

      Someone who screams about Obama wants others to come together under a malignant narcissist? Hypocrite much?

      1. AH OH says:

        Obama is also a Narc, just one with swagger. You can’t make decisions that they do without this.

      2. AH OH says:

        I campaigned for Obama 1st term. So I like him, just didn’t like some of his policies. Soooo now what do you have?

      3. AH OH says:

        Also, your reference to google shows how you believe everything you read from one source. It is offshore and online.

        I would love to sit around a debate table with you and the Entertainment. I would love to see what exactly you can bring to the table.

        1. MsSevyn says:

          You thrive on this drama. I’m not interested in giving you anymore fuel. Peace out.

          1. AH OH says:

            I do not thrive on drama, I just despise ignorance on any subject. If I do not know, I will listen and learn. I just do not spew out crap.
            If you read what I have written and do the homework, you too will be informed. No drama in knowledge.

  11. Catherine says:

    So….is there any chance of one woman being enough ?
    One that has all the supply needed ?

    1. Love says:

      Catherine, if the past and present is indicative of the future, then the answer is a big fat NO.

  12. MsSevyn says:

    Trumps odds are 7/4 not to complete his first term and 4/1 impeachment in first 6 months.

    1. HG Tudor says:

      I am obliged.

      1. AH OH says:

        are you?

    2. Love says:

      What are the odds for a lifetime dictatorship?

      1. AH OH says:

        Love, do not worry, it isn’t going to happen.

    3. AH OH says:

      And who and where are these odds being booked? I would think it could be very insulting to customers who are Trump supporters. I have many many friends in the casino business and have not seen anything on this. I must come out from my showbox with curtains on it under the rock.

      1. MsSevyn says:

        May I introduce you to Google? It’s a handy tool.

  13. Entertainment says:

    Openly taking Russia side, Fighting with the CIA, Threatening to build walls , deporting people and taking away basic necessities such as health care. Not paying into the system that pays for our service men, police, education, and other public services. Damn, I wonder how in the hell history will blame Obama for the division.
    Mona, show me how to change into that beetle. 😊

    1. HG Tudor says:

      Do you think your new POTUS will be able to deliver what he wants to achieve or do you think he will find (like so many before him) that the existing machine, bureaucracy, interest groups etc will result in a dilution of him aims?

      1. Love says:

        He will go whichever way the wind blows. Whatever serves his ever-changing aim/goals.

      2. MsSevyn says:

        I think POTUS will lose interest in running the country when it becomes tedious and he gets diminishing returns on the fuel supply. The machine behind him will try to accomplish the tasks he promised. He has the House and Senate, so we’ll see. The oddsmakers in Vegas don’t have him in office for the long haul though.

        1. HG Tudor says:

          Interesting, what are the odds?

          1. Entertainment says:

            60 days to 6 months

            If I was a gambler I would put my money at 90 days.

        2. AH OH says:

          News to me. I am from Las Vegas, and I have not heard about the odds you speak of. I do know Wynn pulled all of Tom Ford items from his Hotel due to the disrespect of the First Lady.

          The people I know who voted Trump are some of the movers and shakers in this city. It went blue due to the culinary union from my understanding.

          Please enlighten me. ​

          1. MsSevyn says:

            Feel free to Google it. 🙂

          2. AH OH says:

            I did and you are mis-informed from what I have read. I also reached out to my casino contacts and so far nothing here.

          3. Entertainment says:

            The sun is out today in California, mssevyn and I am proudly wearing my Tom Ford Whitney sunglasses😎

      3. Love says:

        A cabinet compromising of Mad Dog for security, the opposition of the teacher’s union for education, and a specialist at keeping minimum wage minimum for labor. Should be interesting.

      4. sarabella says:

        He will find the machinery is greater than him. I think this is what is more dangerous. How will he despond if he finds he can’t do whatever he wants? would this cause a narc injury and how will he resolve the pressure of that? I cannot see how he will EVER want to go down in history as a failed president. So if he starts to fail, what grandiose moves will he make to mitigate failure? Act out anything, regardless of results? So, he cuts healthcare. he can say he did it. The impact and results wont matter. The ensuing destruction won’t matter… he kept his word. ?

      5. BraveHeart says:

        Personally, HG, I think he’s going to go a really long distance with accomplishing what he wants to achieve, because I think we have too many chicken shits that are still set in the “Politically Correct” frame of thinking. At some point, however, I do believe that, collectively, they will all come together and take a stand, but only after much damage has been done. I think it will take a hell of a long time for that to happen though because the majority of the other politicians (even some of those who are narcs themselves) and society doesn’t see, or are in denial, of what he’s truly capable of doing. Unfortunately, most people don’t get the gravity of what dealing with a Narcissist can ultimately turn into.

        Shit, just reading what all of us have said and what we’ve all been through (including you) tells me what we’re most likely going to be face with; and the ONLY reason I know now is because of you. I know now what to look for and the clearest thing to me is that there were numerous Americans who were pissed off (vulnerable) at the way our government was running the country. Mr. Trump stepped up to the podium and shouted out all their anger, hatred and bigotry (seducing them), which was EXACTLY what they wanted to hear (love-bombing in reverse). Now that he’s in office, let the devaluations begin … it’s already being seen by the way he could care less about the Native Americans in North Dakota who are, once again, trying to protect their sacred land from the Dakota Access Pipeline being installed. Question is, what group is next on the chopping block. It’s all a wait and see for me; and like you, it will be interesting to see how it all plays out.

        With that said, as a US citizen, I want my president to succeed. Although I did not vote for him (nor Hillary – I went the 3rd man), I still hope he does make a difference, but that ultimately, it’s for the good. I’ve yet to see any good so far, however, I have to give him a chance. I really have no choice. He’s who the people voted for and now we have to live with that decision.

    2. MsSevyn says:

      I want to be frozen like Walt Disney and thawed out in four years!

      1. AH OH says:

        MsSevyn Why don’t you just leave the country? You seem so bothered by YOUR President. I am sure you will do better somewhere else.

        1. MsSevyn says:

          I’m sure you were nothing but supportive of Obama. The nice thing about America is that citizens have the right to criticize the President. As Donald so freely criticizes anyone who utters an unkind word against him. I think I’ll stay here and find for the underdog. Thanks!

          1. AH OH says:

            I agree with you having the freedom to do so, but be informed. Talk from a stance of having all the information. It is more becoming.
            I cringe everytime he talks for fear of what he will say. But I listen to everything he says. I have watched interviews with him all the way back from the 80’s. I did my homework before I pulled the lever. I also did it with Hillary. I was a Bernie supporter. I was a Kasich supporter on the left side. But we had what they gave us. Out of 300 million plus people, this is what it came down to. No wonder we are the laughing stock of the world. But look at the UK, there is a shift in what people are starting to fight for.
            In this state, we had Harry Reid shoved down our throats for years. When someone stands up there and says I know what is best for you and has never been in my shoes or followed me in my life, how can he say this.
            Our inner cities are all democrats ruined and look at them. Let us hope we all come together and make this a better country for all citizens. Let us hope we help people who are working hard and will assimilate our customs become citizens. There must be a better way for this.

          2. HG Tudor says:

            Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

            Lord Acton knew it.

          3. AH OH says:

            Hear Hear!

          4. AH OH says:

            HG do you consider yourself to have Absolute Power? I do not mean this is a derogatory way.

          5. HG Tudor says:

            I have to.

          6. AH OH says:

            Do you corrupt?

          7. HG Tudor says:

            Absolutely.

          8. AH OH says:

            You are a very scary guy.

      2. Love says:

        He can’t be that scary Ah Oh.
        I’m drawn to him. I’m sure I can change him and turn him into a soft hearted teddy bear that loves to cuddle ❤🐻❤

    3. AH OH says:

      OMG You people need to educate yourself and turn off the TV.

      Do you have a clue about the Obamacare Bill? Millions in pork and bribes. It is a 2000 page plus law. He wants to get rid of this. Are you paying for health insurance? My insurance increased by 300 a month for myself and two of my sons. I am paying 1400 a month. So which one of you “give me a hand out” fucks am I supporting?

      All of you who are writing this crap shows your ignorance of the laws of your nation. This is more of a problem than Trump.

      Fuck HG! Really? I know you are sitting there rolling your eyes.

      1. Entertainment says:

        If you are living in a bullet riddle bunker on the hoods or Las Vegas you are not paying 1,400.00 a month for health care. Us responsible tax payers are paying for your health care. Damn Liars. 2000 pages or 20,000 who cares tell that to over the over 2 million people enrolled in Obama care. He’s also going to cut benefits for disabled veterans families. How dare you tell someone to leave this country. You leave all you are doing is looking to benefit from those of us who pay Taxes. He’s not my president he doesn’t support women rights, education, fair wages, health, and our real veterans and people serving this country. Since you’ve done so much research tell me what will the over 2 million people do when they lose their coverage? What will employers do when they lose the tax incentives for providing coverage? What will cancer patients and others with severe illnesses do when they have to disclose on a insurance application that them or their children has an existing illness? Remove your kids from the public school system since you are against paying taxes. I hate paying taxes as well but as long as I can see where the monies are spent I deal with it. What I can’t accept is the fact that a billionaire would brag about not paying taxes, file bankruptcy every 7 years, and commit despicable acts towards with no accountability.

        1. MsSevyn says:

          I’m with you Entertainment! People are going to be surprised to find out HE doesn’t care about the little people. Look at his Cabinet choices.

          1. Entertainment says:

            Mssevyn
            Exactly, they will feel the same if not worse then what happened in 2007-2008 when a lot of people lost their homes , 401ks and much more the same people in his cabinet were responsible for the recession. At the time I was in a field where we weren’t affected but we’re responsible for providing businesses with resources and free encyclopedia grants and workers to keep their doors open. Also, we had the daunting task of trying to find jobs or retrain people from financial, transportation, construction, automotive and other collapsing industries.

          2. HG Tudor says:

            Watch The Big Short. Twice.

          3. Entertainment says:

            Checking on demand now.😊

        2. AH OH says:

          Again I said the “Bunker” remark was in jest.
          No I am not in the “hoods” of Las Vegas, again it is all in jest.

          I do pay for those who are on Obama Care, with my hefty premiums and large deductables. Do I mind helping those who have not, no, I do not! But I do mind those who suck off the system.

          Cancer? My sister had it in 2011, and my neice died from it in 2000, you can look up her case as she and her doctor were featured on Oprah and the show Hopkins 24. I know all about cancer. I had a mole removed at 13 that was pre-cancerous. My son had a large chunk of skin removed due to cancer. So do not go there about cancer. OH yeah! My grandmother died from breast cancer. I know cancer. I know death from it. I have a cat with it now.

          I agree that our system is/was abused by all Elites, including Clintons, Obamas, and Trumps. Most of Congress too. But fighting Trump will not change this. He said he would like to see the system change so all are prosperous and can have the dream of sending your child to school without the burden that comes with overwelming debt.

          Just give him a chance. I did this 8 years ago. But I do not know of anyone who has bettered today than 8 years ago except for the top ten%. My life has not changed. I know first hand.

          It does need to change, but it won’t happen by taking what I have and worked hard for to give it to those who expect it.

          Are you an employer? The cost of higher insurance was past on to the employee. I have plenty of family members who can attest.

          Do you know people that charge up for vacations and just living beyond their means and then file bankrubcy, do you? Happens every day. This will be our next downturn for our econmy IMHO. People not being able to come out of their debt of spending beyound their means.

          Do you understand how big business works? They do it all the time, it is called reorganazation. Harrahs (Ceasars Entertainment) just emerged from it. So many many companies and busineses ​do this. Our own car companies did it on our tax dollars. So in saying this, it is not only Trump. UNDERSTAND WHAT IT REALLY MEANS!

          To say he does not supports women’s rights and education, just to start with is showing me you are very much uninformed.

          Talk to me in a year. I will be right here in my beautiful home, living the dream. If you are right and he destroys everything you say he will. I will admit I was wrong.

          Learn how money, which makes the world go round, works. I do not mean the shopping at Wal-Mart type either. BTW, my sister works there in the loss dept. ​

          I didn’t TEll​ MsSevyn to leave the country, it was a suggestion. I think anyone who wants to freeze themselves to not watch for four years is a very unhappy person.

        3. AH OH says:

          BTW I paid my taxes and I would venture to say it was a lot more than you did. In my lifetime, I have paid more in taxes then most have earned in their lifetime. I consider myself very smart and very lucky to be able to do so. So do not go there on paying my share.

        4. AH OH says:

          My kids went to public schools, one has a degree of Electrical engineer and the youngest is still going for mechanical engineering.
          My neice is a teacher so I have my finger on the heartbeat there too. BTW she voted Trump.

        5. AH OH says:

          Entertainment we need to stop sending monies (tax dollars)out to other countries so freely so we can cover our own citizens.

      2. ava101 says:

        Where are you sending money to other countries? ? Without anything in return?

        Why do you think you’re not stopping to be involved in the Middle East?

        How many countries are ruined because of debt to you?
        How much debt do you have? What does this have to do with China’s reaction to Trump’s phone call with Taiwan?
        Who do you think finances the European headquarters of your military?
        Who do you think would be sooo happy if you retreated from there and also from the NATO? Please do so!

        I will never understand all this heated debate, as if it would make any difference which one of two parties is in power at the moment …

        1. AH OH says:

          AVA101 I agree, The finance of most of what we talk about is financed by US tax dollars. We foot the bill for Nato. We have become the police of the world and I am tired of it. I agree with Trump in saying, Let Us be the light that they want for themselves, not go shove our way down their throats. I do understand that human rights are violated all over the world, and many can’t defend themselves but what are we to do, continue on this path?
          I have no issue in PROTECTING OUR BOARDERS and Citizens, find a way to help those become citizens that are here and make nice with our neighbors who share this continent. Do business with the world but not give it away.
          It is a hope that I am sure can’t happen. I do not believe in a one world homogenized utopian. I do not want to absorb or assimilate another culture. We have a way of life here and yes we are a nation of immigrants, but there was a time when the culture was respected and those coming here took on our way of life. We are a faith based nation, although I am atheist. We need to respect others beliefs. PERIOD
          I did not like the foreign policies of the past two Presidents and I can only hope this changes with this administration. ( most countries do not like our policies or as they see it, bullying) but they like our money.
          When I travel to other countries, I always engage with people. A taxi driver from the Middle east in Sweden or a Masai Tribesman in the Masai Mara. A Barrister from Canada or a business owner in Mexico. I have talked to people from all over the world. It is an amazing mind thought when you see it through their eyes. You can understand why they feel and think like they do.
          I just hosted a friend from Sweden, boy did her eyes open up. She only knew what her media told her about our country, it is no different then what we are fed about the world.
          Frankly, I am over it. We as a Nation with great people, need to come together. We need to stand up to Washington and never forget that they do work for us and they should always be held accountable.
          We police the world to protect our interests? Ours? They do this in the name of freedom.
          We are the worlds largest arms dealer, we are the war machine on this planet.
          I do not want this anymore. Do you?

      3. ava101 says:

        AH OH, now you’ve lost me.
        I’m not American?

        But I think every nation on this planet would agree that you should resign from your role as world police. 🙂 But our guess is that this would put your economy in further trouble, as the military sector is a HUGE part of that.

        I don’t think you pay for most of NATO? How did you get that idea?!
        I admit that I don’t know the figures for each nation, but I know that my country pays even for YOUR military hospitals and much much more in our country and that we pay A LOT for the NATO, and also providing jets, weapons, etc.. We are allowed to pay and pay and pay, still obliged by post-WWII agreements to this day. We have no say in that.

        We think we are forced to support NATO stuff we don’t want to support, and we think you’re doing that solely for the gain of oil etc. in the Middle East.

        We don’t think you’re protecting us, we think you’re putting us in danger – right into the middle of it.
        We don’t like the decision to have NATO troops marching up and down in front of the Russian border. Many of us would prefer a peaceful treaty with Russia and not your provocations putting us in danger, not you.

        When I say “we” I mean “many people”. Not everybody.

        I personally was extremely happy to hear those words from Trump, but I don’t dare to believe in it.

        Sorry. 🙂

        1. Entertainment says:

          Ava,
          The questions flew right over her head. I agree with you completely we aren’t given international welfare as they call it. If there’s no oil, gold ,or anything we can benefit from we aren’t there to help. Now, corporate welfare here is out of control and it’s exploited by the large corporations that run this country. You are right it doesn’t matter which office is in place . Corporate America runs America and know it’s true in every sense. I don’t expect her to understand as she stated with such assurance that their or no wagers in Las Vegas. She also stated that the people in Las Vegas pay more property taxes than California. That’s trump talk. So was the response you received. Word salad😂

          Read all the posts please.

        4. AH OH says:

          Ava101 As I said, I do not support the policies of the past two administrations. Let us hope Trump does what he says. This is our only choice. We are the Pawns.

        5. AH OH says:

          Ava 101 The Trump supporters also want a peaceful agreement with Russia. The left went crazy with this.

        6. AH OH says:

          I am finished with talking politics and now it is time to hold their feet to the fire.

      4. ava101 says:

        Aaaah I see, Entertainment.
        I agree about the Corporations. I hate that. It’s the same here (and mostly the same companies in fact). People in my country don’t even realize it’s the identical big companies now at the top as in WWII (the ones who profited).

        I love the “small entrepreneur” “movement” and social business. I’m writing a book for people who want to change something in this context. I added yesterday a chapter for hypersensitive and empathic people – those who truly want to help and improve matters and lack the self-centeredness and self-protection of narc-like people. For the ones who have learned to do everything for other poeple and not for their own ideas.

        1. Entertainment says:

          Ava101
          That’s great, did you post it on this blog? Yes, they are pretty much the same corporations. I often wonder why they were major participants in the U.N. summits part of the 150 world leaders. I am definitely for small businesses and entrepreneurs that contribute to betterment of communities and enhancing the lives of others. I feel bad for the small farmer’s they have put them out of business. I buy my meat and produce from local farms . I don’t want a chick that turns to a chicken in 2 days. I look forward to hearing more about your book and I will look for your post. Thanks for sharing and caring 😊

      5. ava101 says:

        Thank you Ah Oh, thank you, Entertainment.

        Ah Oh: it’s 2% of the gross domestic product per country (NATO). Your country is a bit bigger than ours, hence the difference.
        The whole European Union together makes less than the US alone (interesting, actually. …).
        There were also disagreements between NATO members about updating military equipment.
        We don’t even have an active army, we have one for self defense purposes. Nonetheless we’re on place 4.

        —> We will see what happens. But I can’t imagine right now that NATO involvement will be renegotiated. That would be very interesting, indeed.

        Entertainment:
        Thank you! 🙂
        The book is not in English. 🙁

    4. AH OH says:

      Really Entertainment? SMH I see you know your stuff. NOT!

      Addressing some of your posts.

      You do not seem to to know the tax laws that are there for anyone to use. LAWS on the books,

      He wants to deport criminals, and they are trying to pass a bill that if the country of origin of said criminal will not receive their citizen, then we pass sanctions on them. Do you have a problem with this? Well then step up and house the criminal yourself. Donate to his/her welfare.

      He is more in support of the police and service men/women then I would say others in our government. Maybe this is why he had so many votes for him from these groups.

      Remember it was the state of California that had the votes to give her the popular vote. Why do you think they stopped the recount? It showed he also had the popular vote in virtually the entire nation.

      I read and read and read and watch both sides of the media, I talk to many people and find out why they think the way they do.

      Do your research on Hillary. Do me one favor and watch the TED talk that features Monica Lewinski. I am not trying to change your mind on your stance. I am asking you to broaden your horizon and gain knowledge.

      It is Radical Islamic Terrorist. If you know and understand this ideology, you will agree. I am not defending the belief of Christianity either, they killed plenty. I am an Atheist.

      I do not want to do mental battle with anyone on here. I just want to know why you feel this way and back up what you say.

      Yes, he said some crazy crap while he was campaigning. I believe it was to stir the pot. He did touch on a nerve of the nation. When someone who has not paid into the system has more rights then a vet, getting housing, health care, money to start over and they are NOT citizens, then there is a problem here.

      Please understand how the system works. We are the pawns, the powers to be and the powers that are have abused our system because they can.

      As he said in the debate to Hillary, you have been in power 30 years, why haven’t you changed the law on the tax system. I just followed it as it is written.

      Get behind him, and if he takes your rights away, he is taking mine too, and as you can see, I am a fighter. I will fight for the rights of pro-choice, pro-gun, pro same-sex marriage. And if a woman can do the same job as a man then equal pay too.

      If you understood how much money leaves our nation and the fact we are in wars in countries, we should not be in then perhaps you will have hope that he will make a difference. Understand we go in and buy the land we set up camps and bases, and build infrastructure and then leave it all behind without any compensation, with our tax dollars, all in the name of democracy. Our own infrastructure is in bad shape, and my father told me this over 20 years ago. Trump is not telling tales on this.

      Don’t you want a nation that is strong and vital? We can then reach out hands to assist others without destroying ourselves. Help the ones that respect our culture of this great Nation. Help the ones who do not want to come in to change our freedom. Take a good look at Europe and what is going on with the OPEN borders.

      OK, I am finished. Peace and prosperity to all of you.

      Stepping off the soapbox as I fixed my trailer over.

      HG, if you post this, I thank you in advance.

      1. Love says:

        Amen at “the fact we are in wars in countries we should not be in ” 👏

        1. Entertainment says:

          Amen, Love you read that far.

      2. Love says:

        Lol Entertainment, my poor little brain can only handle so much information. 😉 I understand all your stances and there are certain things I agree with on both sides. I actually am an immigrant in the US. And before anyone calls INS, I got here legally 😀
        I have no idea what the future will bring for people like me. I am not so worried about Trump as I am about his cabinet members. Especially his Secratary of Defense, Mad Dog, who’s been quoted to say “it is fun to shoot people”. And who was lauded for warring in countries the US shouldn’t have been in. But I am a survivor and have experienced much worse in my life. Knowing I cannot change anything, I have to face all that is coming head on.

        1. Entertainment says:

          Love,

          You are a sweetheart. I have no fear of that man or his cabinet. I don’t look to earthly men to supply my needs.
          Most of have kids and all the bad seeds we sow into this earth they will reap or their children or their children children’s.
          ( confusing lol) Bad or good their are consequences for our actions. What this world need is a whole lot of (you) love.😊

        2. AH OH says:

          LOVE As I said, we are all in the same boat. You are welcomed to jump in mine, I have sturdy oars and a strong back.

          1. HG Tudor says:

            She doesn’t need to jump in Ah Oh if you are already in the same boat!

          2. AH OH says:

            Well, she feels we are not. So this is why I posted to jump in.
            I am so sick of this political upheaval. The media is pushing and pushing. I did not march nor do they represent me in anyway shape or form. For the life of me, I just do not get what they see in Hillary? I have met her husband three times (all hands and seducer, major narc) and they are not for the little people. Watch all her past interviews from years ago. Watch everything you can on her from her own mouth and tell me she is better.
            Trump is an ass, he needs to shut up and get to work. But he is better then this Clinton family back in charge.

            It sounds big, 1 million women, but in a land of over 300 million people, it is not much. I am tired of all the manipulating. What did they march for? To stand up for woman’s rights that they have and will not be taken away? Or was it just a against Trump protest. Go march where they have no rights for women, march for the end of sharia law, march for equal education. Get on a plane and go have hands on with the people of the world that need it.
            Then you have people like Madonna up there spewing her nonsense. Really? Yes, I use foul language but not when I am wanting to be taken seriously. I watched this and was embarrassing as a woman. They want respect but do not respect themselves.

            I also heard they left the trash behind.
            OK enough of this.

      3. Love says:

        In regards to OPEN borders in Europe. They are Not so open as you believe.
        If you are speaking about the Syrian crisis and their movement to Europe, my heart bleeds for those people. It is the greatest humanitarian crises in history!!! If you knew what travesty they are facing and even worse what conditions they’re being smuggled to Europe, then you’d understand it is not a luxurious get-away for anyone.
        In regards to other immigrants in Europe: keep in mind that European nations colonized a lot of countries. In my opinion, they reaped what they sowed.

        1. AH OH says:

          It is a crisis for sure. But we have our own citizens in need. I would like to help them first.

      4. Love says:

        Yes indeed Entertainment, this world needs more love.
        If I end up being booted to the other side of border and have to build that wall, I will make sure to carve little hearts in it. ❤❤❤

        1. AH OH says:

          LOVE You are not going anywhere!!!!

  14. I did not understand this meme HG?

    1. HG Tudor says:

      We are not equals – we are above everyone else – both in terms of they are little compared to our stature as giants and also in terms of labelling them “little people” to denote them as the proletariat.

  15. Matilda says:

    That picture made me laugh 🙂

    But in all earnestness, HG, if the ‘good doctors’ and you are successful at removing the current construct and replacing it with something healthy and sustainable, you need to learn about basic principles, the foundations a relationship is built upon.

    Equality is the most important aspect of any healthy, loving, long-term bond. Everything else, such as trust and respect, is based on it. If you cannot see another as your equal, and respect her as the independent person she is (not an appliance!), there is no hope for you that you will ever escape your current, zombie-like existence. NONE whatsoever.

    You can never truly rule over another, that’s an illusion you will have to lay to rest. Even if it appeared that you had the upper hand, as she might be too tired to fight you, you have no control over her inner most feelings and thoughts of defiance and escape. And escape they all do, long before they are physically gone! Think about that.

    1. sarabella says:

      It is equality. But also learning to tolerate what it feels like to have no control over anyone, and just sitting there in those feelings. To turn from needing to control to finding a whole lot of beauty and freedom in not controling. Deep self tolerance and acceptance.

      1. Matilda says:

        Absolutely! I have had to learn that myself… that my way is not the only way… that nothing is lost if you give others the space to express themselves… you might even enjoy it as you learn to see things from a different perspective… but it has to happen within a framework of rules both agree up on and *adhere* to, which brings us back to equality.

      2. BraveHeart says:

        Sarabella, that’s when you know true beauty! Thank you for sharing! 🙂

  16. Hurt says:

    *someone sent me this. I cant help but comparing the eagle to a narc. What do you think HG? LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES TO LEARN FROM AN EAGLE….*

    AS YOU BEGIN ANOTHER 12 MONTHS JOURNEY

    1. *Eagles fly Alone and at High Altitudes.*
    They don’t fly with sparrows, ravens, and other small birds.

    *MEANING*; Stay away from narrow-minded people, those that bring you down. Eagle flies with Eagles. Keep good company.

    2. *Eagles have an Accurate Vision.* They have the ability to focus on something as far as 5km away. No matter the obstacles, the eagle will not move his focus from the prey until he grabs it.

    *MEANING*; Have a vision and remain focused no matter what the obstacles and you will succeed.

    3. *Eagles do not Eat Dead things. They Feed only on Fresh Prey.*

    *MEANING*; Do not rely on your past success, keep looking for new frontiers to conquer. Leave your past where it belongs, in the past.

    4. *Eagles Love the Storm.*
    When clouds gather, the eagle gets excited, the eagle uses the storms wind to lift itself higher. Once it finds the wind of the storm, the eagle uses the raging storm to lift itself above the clouds. This gives the eagle an opportunity to glide and rest its wings. In the meantime, all the other birds hide in the branches and leaves of the tree.

    *MEANING*; Face your challenges head on knowing that these will make you emerge stronger and better than you were. We can use the storms of life to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid to rise to greater heights. Achievers are not afraid of challenges, rather they relish them and use them profitably.

    5. *Eagles Prepare for Training;*
    They remove the feathers and soft grass in the nest so that the young ones get uncomfortable in preparation for flying and eventually flies/ when it becomes unbearable to stay in the nest./

    *MEANING*; Leave your Comfort Zone, there is No Growth there.

    6. *When the Eagle Grows Old,*
    His feathers becomes weak and cannot take him as fast and as high as it should. This makes him weak and could make him die. So he retires to a place far away in the mountains. While there, he plucks out the weak feathers on his body and breaks its beaks and claws against the rocks until he is completely bare; a very bloody and painful process. Then he stays in this hiding place until he has grown new feathers, new beaks and claws and then he comes out flying higher than before.

    *MEANING*; We occasionally need to shed off old habit no matter how difficult, things that burden us or add no value to our lives should be let go of.

    *NEVER GIVE UP,*
    *BE AN EAGLE*.

    It will be as usual: First America will be bigger than ever before, then it will crush down and the next president has to clean all that trash. Yes, there are lot of sharks at the moment in different governments. It will be interesting what happens. If the things go too worse, I will change into a black beetle (A very small one and a very inferior). Black beetles survive even a nuclear fallout.

  18. Interesting you posted this today..the day the US installs a malignant narcissist as the most powerful man in the world. I wonder what the discard will look like? Actually, I would rather not know.

    1. HG Tudor says:

      It will be interesting to see how it all plays out. Of course, he is not the first of our kind to lead a country, nor the first to lead the US, but he is the most obvious.

      1. True, it takes a certain amount of narcissism to WANT that job.

        1. HG Tudor says:

          And to succeed in it.

      2. Not So Sad says:

        You can say that again HG.

        Day one as president & he’s already throwing his toys out of the pram because he doesn’t like his inauguration viewing figures.. All lies & fake photographs . Apparently .

        Yes we believe him , course we do .

    2. MsSevyn says:

      I’m looking forward to the discard? Is that wrong of me? I can’t wait until he has a Twitter battle with his inner-circle, cabinet members and especially Putin. The two/twelve-year old can only play nice for so long. 🙂

      1. AH OH says:

        Yes it is wrong. You want failure for the US. Why not see what happens. I supported Obama and never thought of his failing. But history will show how the country is more divided since his term as President.

      2. MsSevyn says:

        AH OH, you are on a Narc site and he is a dangerous narc. The discard isn’t if but when. It’s reality.

  19. Mona says:

    If I would be in your shoes, I would respect Donald Trump. He is the President of America. In your thinking he must be a little bit more than you are, because of being a President. Do you really believe, that the Trumps of our world are the best? ( I must be careful, I never know, where Trump is listening to.) Maybe, I will get a visit by some of his friends some day.

    1. HG Tudor says:

      He has moved into a different field to I, that is one of the differences. He is clearly amongst the best at certain things.

      1. 😀 The smartass in me is biting their tongue bloody right now.

      2. Love says:

        ‘Best at certain things’. I wonder about that. I think some are able to manipulate him. Aren’t the Greaters above the manipulation of others? You can sense another shark miles away. Isn’t it eat or be eaten in your world?

        1. Entertainment says:

          Love,

          Who are you referring to as greater?😊😊😊

      3. Love says:

        Entertainment, I think I misinterpreted Mr. Tudor’s statement of Trump being ‘best at certain things’ as him saying Trump is part of Greater cadre.

        1. Entertainment says:

          Love,
          I don’t see him as a greater. 🤔if I had to rate him it would be more in lesser to mid range. His reactions, outbursts, and inability to exert self control. I think those traits are more prevalent in the lesser of their kind.

          H.G. what are your thoughts?

          1. HG Tudor says:

            I agree Entertainment. He is not a Greater.

    2. AH OH says:

      Mona Small fish we are, no need to worry about him coming for you. He has much to do…

      1. Mona says:

        Oh, sorry. I did not see your comment. No, I do not worry at all. He is still too healthy to behave like that (now). On the other hand- my neighbour received a letter from the White House, I think, nearly 35 years ago. Inside there was a huge picture with an autograph of Ronald Reagon and his wife.(No copy!!!) My neighbour met his (Ronalds) secretary on a holiday trip and she managed that. You can imagine, how upset we all were. We could not believe that. It is really the truth. I am not joking. So, never say never.

      Maybe Bambi like Dexter grew up to be a serial killer because he saw his mother murdered.

      1. 1jaded1 says:

        Love. Have you seen the movie? HG is God(zilla). My Sci Fi teacher showed it as a short film before she showed us Alien. It shocked me more than Alien. It’s disturbing to some, so google at your own risk. I think maybe Bambi’s son could be a Dexter if he saw what happened. There is also a short where the son of Bambi meets Godzilla. You might be right.

        1. HG Tudor says:

          As long as you do not advocate the offspring off Godzilla which was ridiculous in the same way as Scrappy Do. Cartoons are real aren’t they?

          1. 1jaded1 says:

            The Cartoon Network exists, or used to. That would suggest cartoons are real. The offspring of Godzilla is ridiculous. Bringing a kid into a show to freshen it up is also ridiculous. This goes for cartoon or regular show. Not everyone adores the antics of little kids. Do you like cartoons? If so, which ones?

        The Smurfs, My Little Ponies, She-Ra. And all new animations that are released now a days.
