quote:The raping of children and the drinking of blood, this is a ritual they do, this is their religion, this is how they believe they obtain power, she said. That is very hard for people to believe, but we did learn from the [John] Podesta emails, that is exactly what is going on.
That’s very hard for the public to process, Crokin said, so President Trump and his people understand that they can’t just come out one day and be like, ‘Oh hey, one third of the government is raping children and sacrificing them and drinking their blood and they’re satanists.’ You just can’t drop that bomb on people; people can’t process that information like that, they need it in doses, they need to be conditioned. So what we have going on behind the scenes is that the Trump administration is slowly trying to condition the public and try to prepare them for what’s about to go down.

Speaking of the relief efforts:

I very much doubt that he's even in contact with himself.

They do have an elected governor, though... maybe that's who he was referring to?
It was, but it's still one of ever so many manifestations of ignorance.
I believe the mistake reflects an attitude about Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands that is a bit more nefarious. Trump may be ignorant, but his ignorance never falls on the side of treating certain folks as real Americans.
All of those folks are U.S. citizens, and they only have one president. Just like every other U.S. citizen.
Yeah, maybe Trump meant governor. But his racist nature would not let him get it right.

On Saturday, a limousine driver plans to launch himself on a mile-long flight over the Mojave Desert in a rocket of his own making.
His name is "Mad" Mike Hughes, his steam-powered rocket is built of salvaged metals, his launch pad is repurposed from a used mobile home and he is confident this will mark the first step toward proving the Earth is flat, after all.
"It's the most interesting story in the world," Hughes told The Associated Press of his jury-rigged quest to overturn more than two millennia of scientific knowledge. And the whole thing is costing him just $20,000, according to the AP. (It goes without saying, but we'll say this anyway: Do not try this at home or anywhere.)
"I don't believe in science," Hughes added. "I know about aerodynamics and fluid dynamics and how things move through the air, about the certain size of rocket nozzles, and thrust. But that's not science, that's just a formula. There's no difference between science and science fiction."

The plan, as stated, is to send himself 1,800 feet high in the air at a speed of 500 mph before finally pulling out his parachutes which, one hopes, will not be the same ones he used for another launch in 2014. Hughes, 61, told a flat-Earth community Web show that the flight, which the AP said took him a quarter-mile across Arizona desert, ended when he pulled his parachutes two of which he said were at least 20 years old at the time and one of which didn't open.
"Yeah, it was a scary moment," he said in the interview, adding that he had to use a walker for several weeks after his landing. "I had never parachuted before."
And this will prove the earth is flat how?
Maybe he'll prove the earth is young at the same time ....
