A.) First, just a note on Trump’s 2005 hot mic comments.  Apologists for Trump are making the argument that what he said was mere “locker room braggadocio” and “all men talk like that.”

Um, excuse me, but NO.  I don’t know who y’all hang out with, but let me assure one and all right now that there are plenty of heterosexual men who DO NOT and WOULD NEVER think, much less say those sorts of things about any woman ever.  I know this, because I am proud to call a handful of them my friends.  The notion that my male friends, heterosexual and every bit as aware of female beauty and charm as the next chap, would, for example, in my absence sit around and say things like, “Man, that Ann – I’d sure like to grab that pussy”, is simply impossible.  It is MORALLY impossible for a good, Christian man to speak, or even THINK in those terms. And if I even suspected that they did talk like that in my absence, I would sever the friendship immediately and entrust them to God in prayer.  What I would NOT do is engage in relativism, such as, “Well, Bill Clinton is a rapist, so it’s no big deal.” That’s insane. It’s morally insane. Beware of ANYONE who is so in-the-tank for a person that they defend sickening behavior with appeals to relativism.  A virile man makes JUDGMENT CALLS, and makes simple judgment calls easily.  It is the effeminate man, desperate for human respect and desperate to attach himself to an Alpha Narcissist that will make all manner of excuses for his Alpha attachment (in this case Trump) in a desperate bid to maintain the sycophantic connection.

It seems to me that this is a textbook symptom of the post-Christian culture that even the so-called “conservative right” lives in today – this belief that it is pretty much impossible to be anything other that a complete moral degenerate, and that to be a heterosexual man is to be a man who objectifies women and views them as mere “pussies to be grabbed”.  Way to fall for the Marxist-feminist conditioning, y’all.  Hook, line and sinker.  Every time someone says “All guys talk like that…”, all the feminists, and Satan their father, put another point on the ol’ scoreboard.

Trump’s Motivation Explained

B.) I explained this on a radio interview a few weeks ago, and have explained it to people in person several times, and each time the people I have explained it to have declared it a revelation, which “explains everything”.  So, I will put it in writing here.

This kayfabe presidential campaign by Trump is about one thing:

Increasing the value of the Trump Brand.

It is NOT about Trump becoming “president” of the former-United States.  Never was, folks.  It was pre-arranged with the Clintons as a means of re-installing the Clinton mafia in The White House while allowing Trump to evolve the Trump brand and increase the value of the Trump brand by billions of dollars.

Donald Trump began by cultivating his persona as a real estate tycoon and casino mogul in the 1980s. But that is a somewhat limited market, and also very cyclical and risky. After all, building giant mirror-penis skyscrapers and slapping your name on them in gold-mirror caps can only take narcissist so far.  He then decided to expand and elevate his persona by moving into entertainment – specifically reality shows – in the 1990s and 2000s. While risky and cyclical like real estate, entertainment is far LESS risky once a given entertainer has established a foothold.  Trump did that with “The Apprentice”.

Being “friends” with the Clintons, Trump saw how lucrative the political racketeering paradigm was, specifically the “speaking fees”, which are just extremely thinly-veiled bribes and payola, and the “Clinton Global Initiative”, which is a straight-up money laundering racket. But, in order for Trump to break into the world of ten-figure political racketeering, he needed to evolve his brand even further.  He needed to evolve into “Donald Trump: Global Statesman”.

And THAT, my dears, is why he brokered and concocted the kayfabe with the Clintons that you are now seeing. Was Trump inspired in all of this after his dabble in Professional Wrestling a few years ago?  Were his business dealings with on again-off again billionaire Vince McMahon (owner of WWF/WWE Pro Wrestling) his inspiration for the kayfabe “presidential” run? NOTHING would surprise me at this point.

Now to the “winning and losing”.  This is all fake.  Clinton is going to “win” and was always going to win no matter what because the elections themselves are a sham. I know this is really, really hard for Americans to come to grips with, but these national-level elections are all bullshit and have been for a while.  Donald Trump wants NOTHING TO DO with being “president” of the former-United States.  Think about it.  What person in their right mind would want to be “president” over the next four years, as the catastrophic destabilization, the aggressive execution of the Cloward-Piven strategy comes to full flower?  As I said from the beginning, the Obama regime would incite a race-based civil war inside the U.S., while simultaneously destabilizing the rest of the world AND reforming and arming a new islamic Caliphate. Check.  The Obama regime also executed the Cloward-Piven Strategy upon the U.S. economy AND healthcare delivery system. This was done in a two-pronged attack, namely Obamacare and the dissolving of the Mexican border.  Check.

Don’t you realize that if Trump “won” and was “president” for the next four years that he would be blamed for all of the shit-hitting-the-fan that is going to happen? It would DESTROY HIS BRAND.  Now, if Trump “loses”, as was always the plan betwixt him and the Clintons, he STILL has all of the cache of being a nominee for “president”, and still gets his brand transformed into that of “global statesman”, but instead of being blamed for all of the “shit hitting the fan” over the next four years, will instead be able to sit back, go on TeeVee, and EVERY TIME SOMETHING HORRIBLE HAPPENS, Trump will say, “If I had been President, that wouldn’t have happened. If I had been President, I would have prevented that….” And thus his brand will increase ALL THE MORE with each coming catastrophe. Ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching.  Folks, Trump only truly wins, if he “loses”.

I’d also like to point out that this brand evolution involves not just Donald Trump, but it is also pretty clear that he is setting up his kids, especially Ivanka and Eric, to eventually enter the political kayfabe as characters in their own right.  Trump is 70 years old, and understands estate planning well.  Hell, if the Clintons can set Chelsea up, who has ZERO charisma, then Trump knows he can position Ivanka and Eric to be bigtime players in the political kayfabe.

Trump’s Rhetoric Is All a Farce

“But, but, but… Trump is saying all the right things!  He MUST be on side!”

No.

Okay.  Think of it this way.  You all think I am a person of above-average intelligence, right? (Insert snarky comment here….)  Do you think, that IF I WANTED TO, I could fake being a leftist?  Do you think that I am intelligent enough to know the left’s talking points, their priorities, what they WANT TO HEAR, and that if I wanted to, I could fake being a leftist?  Of course I could.  One of the hallmarks of a good rhetorician is knowing and being able to front-run the opposite side’s arguments and talking points.  The is also one of the hallmarks of a good military leader – being able to anticipate the enemy’s tactics.  Now, Trump is no genius, but he isn’t dumb.  So, do you honestly think it is totally beyond him to sit down and say, “Alright.  What do I need to say, what talking points do I need to push, in order to ingratiate myself to the political right in the U.S. today?”

A.) Close the borders, “build a wall”
B.) Pro-life, but not TOO pro-life
C.) “Anti-establishment”

Folks, here are some Trump quotes from within the last 20 years.  Leopards don’t change their spots this radically unless there is a 10-figure payoff on the deal….

1) “I probably identify more as Democrat.”

2) “I’ve been around for a long time. And it just seems that the economy does better under the Democrats than the Republicans.”

3) “Nancy — you’re the best. Congrats. [signature]”
—Handwritten note to Speaker Nancy Pelosi

4) “Bush is probably the worst president in the history of the United States.”

5) “I’m totally pro-choice.”

6) “I want to see the abortion issue removed from politics. I believe it is a personal decision that should be left to the women and their doctors.”

7) “I’m very liberal when it comes to health care. I believe in universal health care.”

8) “The Canadian plan also helps Canadians live longer and healthier than Americans… We need, as a nation, to reexamine the single-payer plan.”

9) “By imposing a one-time 14.25 percent net-worth tax on the richest individuals and trusts, we can put America on sound financial footing for the next century.”

10) “I think he [Obama] has a chance to go down as a great president.”

Folks, all of this is kayfabe – professional wrestling kayfabe, except without the wrestling.  The Clintons don’t care about Trump’s kayfabe attacks because they know it is all part of the show, and like all Diabolical Narcissist psychopaths, THEY GET OFF ON HAVING THEIR MALEFACTIONS AND CRIMES EXPOSED, AND THEN WATCHING AS PEOPLE NOT ONLY DON’T CONFRONT MUCH LESS PROSECUTE THEM, BUT ACTIVELY SUPPORT AND DEFEND THEM.

If I may be a tad crude for a moment, Bill Clinton has gotten far more sexual pleasure off of the exposure and acceptance of his history of rapes and consensual hook-ups than he ever got out of the actual rapes and hook-ups themselves. And the same goes for Trump.  Trump is getting off on that 2005 “pussy grabbing” tape being released as he watches countless people COME RUNNING TO HIS DEFENSE.  This is heroin-laced catnip for these Diabolical Narcissist psychopaths whose greatest pleasure is telling themselves, “I’m so f***ing brilliant these people will defend me and kiss my ass EVEN MORE when they see what a f***ing monster I am and what I’ve done.”

I anxiously await the tsunami of emails telling me how wrong I am about Trump, and how Trump is going to save the world.  Just remember guys, your sycophancy to Trump and your need for him to be your glorious leader despite a mountain of objective evidence that he is a DN psychopath con-artist is pure, unadulterated, textbook EFFEMINACY.

(And yes, much the same effeminate dynamic of blind sycophancy is the fuel on which the Bergoglian antipapacy is running.  But that is a different post.)

I hope this helps.

Dude!  I had NO IDEA about this until literally one minute ago:

From the KAYFABE article on wikipedia:

Trump buys WWE Raw
On June 15, 2009, Vince McMahon announced on a special three-hour edition of WWE Monday Night Raw that he had sold the show to Donald Trump, who appeared on-screen to confirm it and declared he would be at the following commercial-free episode in person. However, it was not revealed that the “sale” to Trump was not an actual sale, but a kayfabe as part of the WWE’s storyline. Executives for WWE and USA Network treated the “sale” as an actual sale, and it was picked up as a real event by many industry sources. The day following the announcement, WWE’s stock on the New York Stock Exchange fell, leading USA Network to admit that the “sale” was indeed nothing more than part of a storyline.

I laff.  I laff hard.  So Trump is an old hand at this. And maybe, just maybe, my little analogy is more apt than I imagined.

UPDATE:

OH SHIIIIIIIT!!!!!

I’m gonna bust a gut over here…!!!!!

Post-America, if this doesn’t make you understand how totally, completely over it is, then neither I nor anyone else can help you.

I have been referring to post-American electoral politics as “kabuki theater”.  But I found an even better word – in fact, the perfect word.

The word is:

KAYFABE.

This comes from the world of… professional wrestling.  Here is the definition from wiki…

KAYFABE:  kayfabe /ˈkeɪfeɪb/ is the portrayal of staged events within the industry as “real” or “true,” specifically the portrayal of competition, rivalries, and relationships between participants as being genuine and not of a staged or pre-determined nature of any kind. Kayfabe has also evolved to become a code word of sorts for maintaining this “reality” within the direct or indirect presence of the general public.

Now tell me that isn’t a perfect descriptor of this utter farce.

Words have meaning, folks, and it is always best to use the word that most precisely and accurately matches the concept that one is trying to convey or discuss.  Therefore, since the perfect word for the farce before us exists, we should start using it.

Post-American electoral politics, especially national-level politics is KAYFABE. In fact, it is even more KAYFABEY than professional wrestling.

KAYFABE.

Because offstage, remember, FRONT ROW AT THE “WEDDING”. Where the dead parents would have been seated.

The Diabolical Narcissist’s Prayer

That didn’t happen.
And if it did happen, it wasn’t that bad.
And if it was that bad, that’s not a big deal.
And if it is a big deal, that’s not my fault.
And if it was my fault, I didn’t mean it.
And if I did mean it…
You deserved it.
Amen.

I think these examples of Diabolical Narcissism in film are very instructive, and make for interesting posts.  Remember, just because I coined the term “Diabolical Narcissism” doesn’t mean the phenomenon is new – it is exactly the opposite.  DN predates the existence of human beings, as it is what Lucifer and the one-third of the angelic beings chose to do when they fell and were cast out of heaven.  That happened BEFORE God created man.  If you have watched my video presentation on DN, you know it basically hinges around 1 Corinthians 13: 1-5, in which St. Paul, inspired by The Holy Ghost, makes the chilling statement that the man who chooses not to love is, in the eyes of God, NOTHING.  Nihil sum.

In this scene (2:30:00) at the end of the VERY GOOD film about St. Bernadette Soubirous and her visitation at Lourdes by The Blessed Virgin, the Imperial Prosecutor, Vital Dutour, played by Vincent Price, always in contempt of Bernadette and especially of religion (remember, this is France just a few decades after the satanic French Revolution and the Vendee Genocide), after being diagnosed with terminal throat cancer, goes to the Grotto and makes this confession:

“I am a stranger here.  I am not like these thousands of souls flickering brightly and hopefully in the darkness.  My pride has always stood between them and me.  The pride of being a superior human being. But now I know that we are all a wretched animal species, distinguished from the insects only by nerve centers and false reasoning. A hungry cancer is feeding at my throat.  Tomorrow I’ll crawl back to Langlois, hide in some hole of death and be heard of no more.  I’ll be alone – alone and desolate.  And why not? It’s logical.  I’ll be alone because I have loved no one.  No one and nothing.  Not even myself.  Nothing.  Nothing.

Pray for me, Bernadette….”

This is a succinct description of Diabolical Narcissism.  The otherness, the pathological haughtiness, the self-loathing, the self-pity, and most importantly the lovelessness.  The freely-chosen lovelessness, which only leads, as St. Paul said, to NOTHINGNESS.  Nihil sum.

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

The Annunciation, Leonardo da Vinci and Andrea del Verrocchio, ARSH 1472-1475, Uffizi Gallery, Florence

I recently came across Da Vinci’s Annunciation and must admit that I was quite struck by the Archangel Gabriel.  I have spoken before about the notion of “Ferocious Love”.  This comes from C.S. Lewis in Perelandra:

“Pure, spiritual, intellectual love shot from their faces like barbed lightning. It was so unlike the love we experience that its expression could easily be mistaken for ferocity.”

As I zoomed in and looked closer at Gabriel’s countenance, I saw exactly that – “ferocious” love.  He is kneeling, bowing, honoring and blessing her – Gabriel loves Our Lady.  But look – LOOK at his face.  Look at his eyes.  Oh my.

Man, that’s what I want to be when I grow up.  I’m so not doing it right yet, though.  I just come off as crazy.  Oh well.  I shall keep trying.  Maybe someday I’ll get it just right.

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.

For he hath given his angels charge over thee; to keep thee in all thy ways.
Quoniam angelis suis mandavit de te, ut custodiant te in omnibus viis tuis.

In their hands they shall bear thee up: lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
In manibus portabunt te, ne forte offendas ad lapidem pedem tuum.
-Psalm 90: 11-12

From today’s check-around of the innerwebz:

Once again reality is impossible to distinguish from satire. A congregation of the Canadian United Church has a female pastor who is now openly an atheist. Absurd as that is, the real absurdity is that the congregation is paralyzed over how to handle this situation. Their commitment to “inclusiveness” is so broad that they’ll accept you if you don’t believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ, or even the very concept of divinity of any sort.

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/09/30/inclusive-canadian-church-debates-suitability-atheist-pastor/

It’s stuff like this that makes me see where Ann Barnhardt is coming from with her zealous Roman Catholicism. There are things about the RCC that do not sit right with me, but I do credit them with insisting that some things are absolutely set in stone and inviolable. The “whose version of Christianity is right?” question dogs me, but stories like this at least reveal whose version is absolutely wrong.

No one – NO ONE – respects a person who “doesn’t actually believe any of that bullshit“, which is the working definition of Modernism, which Pope St. Pius X called “the synthesis of all heresies”.  Novus Ordo “c”atholicism, post-Vatican II, NewFrancisOneWorldReligion – whatever you want to call it – holds as its Creed that “we don’t actually believe what we believe”.

Antipope Bergoglio’s entire schtick is denying that ANYTHING is set in stone and inviolable. He is sowing chaos and “making crooked” everything that The Church has spent 2000 years “making straight.” He is a contra-analogue to John the Baptist.

And Protestantism?  The entire foundational premise of Protestantism is that “we don’t actually believe any of that bullshit.”

That is REPULSIVE on a gut, visceral level.  People have to condition themselves and destroy their own conscience to not be sickened by it.

Many people – MANY OF YOU – read this blog including the posts about Jesus and His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, even though you aren’t Catholic, and many of you are agnostic if not confessing atheist – but you still read those posts because A.) you can tell that I really, truly believe what I say and B.) I have established credibility with you through my commentary on economics, financial markets, the islamic political system and my spectacular taste in music. The fact that I am unapologetic to the point of intransigence is a point of attraction – something so rarely seen in this post-Christian, effeminate culture, that you just can’t help but look. Virility is now a spectacle.  Christian virility is almost incomprehensible.

Many of you feign disgust at what I say, almost to a man, because of what I say about sexual morality.  How many of you read me and then turn around and hedge and call me nuts because of what I say about contraception being always and everywhere a mortal sin? Given my demographics, I know that most of you probably contracepted for almost all if not your entire married lives.  You HAVE to call me “nuts” in order to hedge the contraception paradigm, don’t you?

Or because I believe in the clear words of Jesus Christ that divorce and remarriage is adultery? How many of you are on your second or third “marriage”?  If I’m not “crazy”, then you are in deep shit, right?  Or how many of you have kids who are divorced and “remarried”?  If I’m not “batshit”, then you and your kids are in deep shit.  Or that all sexual activity outside of marriage is fornication?  How many of you have kids that are shacking up? I HAVE to be nuts, or else your kids are deep, deep shit, right?  And you will have failed them, at least partially, as their parents.  Or that all aberrosexual behavior is sodomy? If I’m not “cray-cray”, then your gay son/grandson/nephew or dyke daughter/granddaughter/niece is in shit up to their eyebrows.

Or how about the fact that I openly believe and profess that outside of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church, founded by God Incarnate Himself, that there is no salvation?  It’s SO NOT DONE. Believing that there is ONE Truth? One TRUE RELIGION?  How sick is that?

Or that I actually believe that at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass the little disc of bread and splash of wine truly, physically, substantially becomes the literal Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of God? And then I eat Him.

Except you just keep coming back, because you know that I am not the same as a musloid or Mormon or Branch Davidian or Scientologist – no matter how much you wish that I were. No matter how much you wish I were crazy, deep down, you know that I’m NOT crazy, but actually sane – albeit in a flamboyant way. Flamboyant Sanity.  That would make a good name for a band.

Whatever.  Whatever gets you to think about God, His death on the Cross for our sins, and your eternal fate – heaven for eternity or hell for eternity.  If I have to make a spectacle of myself – a FOOL, if you will – then so be it.  If this culture is so far gone that simply BELIEVING WHAT YOU BELIEVE constitutes a spectacle, and a secret attraction, hey man, so much the easier.  I find it incredibly easy to say what I actually believe and know to be true.

Too bad some other people don’t.

St. John the Baptist, pray for us.

Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

PATER NOSTER, qui es in caelis, sanctificetur nomen tuum. Adveniat regnum tuum. Fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum quotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris. Et ne nos inducas in tentationem, sed libera nos a malo. Amen.
