Mo & Mo en Route – Justify

Justify

Justifying ill behavior does almost as much damage as the behavior itself. A lot of that going around lately.

In design or copy layout, to justify means to align with… Justify Left, everything aligns Left. Justify Right, everything aligns Right. Much like when we justify behavior. Like bad behavior… Justifying, Greed, Pride, Racism, Xenophobia, Egotism, Deceit, Hypocrisy, Fearmongering. Justify them and we align with them… We claim them, own them, bear the weight of them. Not what you want to do… Words hurt! Not just the words. Ouch…

Mo & Mo en Route – Fireworks

Flash Bang

“Oh the noise, noise, noise, noise, noise, noise…” not the 4th fireworks, POTUS’s Twitter. If only that were once a year.

Fireworks Hope folks had a Happy 4th ! I just love fireworks… The flash, the noise, the explosions. For celebration they’re just great… But fireworks every day? It gets old, and annoying, and dangerous, really fast. Fake News! Psycho! Crazy! Low I.Q! Bad! Losers! I like the 4th better, much less noise.

Mo & Mo en Route – Superlative

Superlatives

DJT just can’t stop speaking in superlatives, but it does have consequences, and for that we all suffer.

“They’re the worst…” “it’s just a disaster…” Many advertisers, marketers, politicians have tried… “It’s the most fantastic…” “I’ll be the Greatest…” But here DJT has succeeded. “the best you’ve ever seen…” “it’s gonna be really, really great, so great…” He has killed the superlative… now they’re truly meaningless. R.I.P.

Mo & Mo en Route – Emolument

Emoluments

A glimpse at Trump’s financial reports suggest good ol’ swampiness and then some.

The Emoluments Clause. I’m so sorry, you OK? How you feeling? Huh?... What?... No, It’s Article I Sect. 9 of the Constitution. It talks about how No gov’t official can accept money or any stuff of value from foreign states. So what’s that? A new app called Yikes! It profiles properties & resorts, and rates their swampiness. Like the President’s Mar-a-Lago, pre-election revenue of $15m, post-election revenue $37m. YIKES! …all those foreign meetings, they didn’t hurt. Or the Trump Int’l Hotel in D. C. $20m since opening in Oct. YIKES! …All those officials, Foreign concerns & lobbyists! Swampy? The Swampiest!

Mo & Mo en Route – Mad

Quite Mad

Some very strange theater this week. Leaves one longing for normal, which is not overrated and would indeed be welcome, but does require effort.

“Start with Mike and we’ll just go around…” “Greatest privilege of my life is to serve… a president who's keeping his word to the American people.” – Mike Pence ? ? “I can’t thank you enough for the privileges you’ve given me and the leadership that you’ve shown.” – Tom Price “We’re All Quite Mad Here!” – Cheshire Cat “for the opportunity and the blessing that you’ve given us to serve your agenda and the American people.” - Reince Priebus “Curiouser and curiouser” – Alice I’d say, “Weirder and weirder…” This is not normal… and not in a good way.

Mo & Mo en Route – Great?

Great Yet?

We obviously have different ideas on what “Great” is. And if this is “Great”, it sure ain’t “Real” Great.

So, how’s that “Make America Great” thing going? Well let’s see… Praising Authoritarians, while deriding allies. Withdrawing from progress on climate & trade, going toward regress and isolation. Shooting for America first, getting America only. Selling to the middleclass, selling them out to the wealthy. Banning immigrants from a country of immigrants. So, not making it so “Great”? I call it a “Fake Great”. And the 72.8%? The 72.8% of us who didn’t vote for a “Fake Great”. * The United States Elections Project: Total 2016 U.S. Electorate 231,556,622… DJT 62,979,636 votes

Mo & Mo en Route – Fake

Fake

Let’s get real. If we bother to look, we know who or what is fake and what’s not, and it’s not the latest news.

NI-KEY …Fake (Mona Lisa with toothy grin) Fake? …Yeah, fake. “Jared Kushner now a focus in Russia investigation” * …Fake News!” tweets Trump. Fake? So… what do you call it, when one always calls real news ‘n facts fake? Fake views... Fake reality... Or if you don’t like what’s being said, keep calling it Fake till people buy it as Fake. That’s a lot of Fake. Tell me!

Mo & Mo en Route – Up-Down

Up is Down, Down is Up

It’s all turned on its head, heads spinning, how  long can it keep going?

What’s up is down and what’s down is up… To become President you don’t need to win. Reporters don’t need to investigate, and Spies don’t need to spy… The info and leaks just keep coming. It’s Tax relief for high income and not much for the rest. A “populist” for the wealthy. The blood is rushing to my head. Can’t keep doing this.

Mo & Mo en Route – Chaos

Chaos Theory

A Chaos Theory… Yes, we have chaos, and it’s by design, if not by our own.

Putin offered his transcript to help straighten things out. He said with that Putin grin. Britain is in a Brexit tizzy. E.U. is trying to hang together. The U.S. has denial, delusion, rage, fear, doubt. …Chaos all around. And Russia just mucks about, trying to undermine it all. Who wins the Vote? They don’t care, as long as chaos reigns. They just love our Chaos. We need to reverse “chaos”. “Soah-C!” I was thinking integrity, justice, fidelity, focus, freedom… Stuff like that. Is it safe to come out yet?

Mo & Mo en Route – Irony

Ironic

Second-guessing what people want to hear vs. just doing what’s right. The latter is much easier, the former is a cycle of inane irony.

We have a FBI director who tried to second-guess Congress with his reports. He’s been coloring outside the lines. Only to be second-guessed by both parties for his reports and their effects. …Kind of Ironic Now during hearings on those reports and other stuff, …he gets sacked. By a President whose decision to sack him is being second-guessed by everyone. Wonder if he’ll have the same results? Wouldn’t it be ironic? Don’t ya’ think? It pays to color within the lines.
