I see no “Administration.” I see a Malignant Narcissist having filled the holes of hate created by Industry-backed Republican think-tanks & focus groups... An anomaly amid even that radicalized party, his gamble appears to have worked … and his behavior has become their norm..

He/ they harvest hate. Not difficult, when their targets know so little of the world. trump is playing on fears from decades ago … and his religious followers are eating it up.. There’s no deep strategy involved. And the only reason the spineless members of the Republican Party kiss his ass is the core voters within their primaries demand it … else their gravy train would end..

It’s primal, lizard brain reactions they’re playing to, not the educated ~

I think that the US Administration does promote lies, propaganda, and deception because it distrusts almost any sovereign nation other than itself. That is why the US official position it is greater than other nations in many quality of life achievements, when the opposite extremes have been proven time and again in so many crucial conditions of our lives as citizens. The deception has gone on for a long time.

This goes back to before 45 pulled out of the Iran deal. Diplomacy was working, and
had been working since the Obama administration unfroze and returned the Iranian
assets, which were seized in 1979. That wasn't a "secret deal" with taxpayer money.
That was their money, returned to them, as a means to open diplomatic channels.
It was working. They were abiding by the deal, UNTIL 45 fucked it all up.

There's more, but generally, 45 and the republicans are continuing their stupid and
short-sighted campaign of undoing all the good Obama was doing.
Idiots, all.
