Is He Really This Stupid?

We tried that, Smokey Bear. Turns out forests and grasslands west of the Rockies need fire to sustain their ecosystems. That’s why we control the burns now. You could have stopped it before it started, right?  And won the first Nobel prize 40 years before the first one was awarded. It’s all fun and games until the body bags come home.

  1. Someone needs to do the research to see what cartoon or TV show or Hollywood movie gave the city boy the idea that People rake the forest floor to prevent forest fires. Or maybe the idiot saw groundsmen at Central Park (I wonder if he ever went there) or around some golf course once.
    American democracy is so fragile that the stupidest man to have ever gotten the presidency under the Constitution is doing the most effective job of destroying, not only the egalitarian democratic salvage job that we've been able to impose on the Constitutional system, but to take down the "balance of powers" theory that the entire thing is based on. Of course, he's had so much help in that from the Rehnquist, then Roberts Court, though I doubt even Scalia had any idea how stupid things were going to get. Though Thomas certainly hasn't' been bothered by that much - despite those idiotically lauded 9-0s that they've put out. Am I remembering right, there have been a grand total of two of those among the 6-9 and 5-4's that have dominated our march to fascism under the Constitutional system?

  2. the guy's only exposure to nature occurs at golf courses, which bear about as much resemblance to actual nature as trump's hair and makeup
