Lord Haw-Haw
Oct. 13th, 2016 09:49 amI am watching with amazement at Trump's decision to attack Hillary Clinton for her husband's sexual exploits. Does Donald Trump truly not remember groping all those women? Does he not remember taking strolls through the changing room and ogling all the naked beauty contestants? As somebody said, this is a "reverse Rove" - attack based on your weakness not on the opponent's strength. With a few exceptions (see the blog of Wily E. Coyote, SuperGenius at Large) even Trump's supporters are realizing that the light at the end of the tunnel is an express freight train coming at them. See Scott Adams, a new "friend" of the blog (more on him below).
In WWII, the Germans hired Brits to make propaganda broadcasts into Britain. One of the more notable broadcasters was a guy named William Joyce, AKA "Lord Haw-Haw." On April 30, 1945, eight days before the formal end of the war in Europe, Joyce got drunk and made a final broadcast. I've heard a snippet of that broadcast, and Joyce whines that "you just don't understand what we were trying to do here."
So today I see that Scott Adams has decided that Hillary will get elected and "everything that goes wrong with the country from this point forward is women’s fault." I guess we just don't understand what Trump was trying to do here.
For the curious, things did not end well for Joyce. He was tried for treason, appealed to the House of Lords, lost the appeal and was the second-to-last person to be hung for treason in the UK. Despite Scott Adams' concerns, I suspect things will end better for him.
