HRC the conspiracy theorist

Hillary Clinton says Tulsi Gabbard is a ‘Russian asset’ groomed to ensure Trump reelection

Why would she even say that?

This can only hurt the Democratic party.  It will raise suspicions that the contest’s rigged.  It will embolden Trump supporters.

In the last weeks before the 2008 Democratic national convention, HRC came out with some gaffes that may have cost her the nomination.  In 2016, her “deplorables” speech may have cost her the election.

Now this.

Even Eleanor Roosevelt said some things she deserved to regret.

Saturday 2014-07-26.  There is a woman who comes into McDonald’s sometimes, who has taken a liking to me, and sometimes gives me money.  Not long after I first composed “Prayer primer,” I figured I could print out a color hard copy to give her as a present; and eventually I did so.  But for weeks, I never saw her.

INTERVIEWS IN AUGUST:

Secretary II – City Health Department, 08/26/14

Tuesday 08/26/14:   I interviewed this morning for the position of Secretary II with the City Health Department.

My success depended on my performance overcoming my appearance.  This was the fourth interview I’ve had since becoming homeless, and the first time that my appearance was an issue.  As things went, by the time I left McDonald’s for the interview itself, my nerves were shot.

My bud thinks he’s engaged to this woman.

Homelessness,

He had told me they met online, that she lives in Brazil and is rich.  Then in a recent voicemail (He has no phone.), he gave me her name.  So I looked her up on Facebook.

He’s 60+ years old, like me; homeless, uses a wheelchair, and looks a mess.

He could be her grandfather.

But “she” leaves passionate comments on his FB posts.

What I don’t understand is what this person possibly thinks “she” can get from a 60+ year old homeless man.

Note that the pictures aren’t selfies; these are professionally done. Continue reading My bud thinks he’s engaged to this woman. →

16:01 Saturday 2014-06-28.  [Written in the “smoke pit” at the shelter, waiting admission.]

They escorted Jimmy out of here about half an hour ago.  He’s always been a milquetoast.  Now he was shouting and cursing.  “Yeah, I been drinking.”  Whatever happened at the desk, he’s barred out now.  I owe him $2.

He’s diagnosed with bipolar II disorder and ADHD.  I’ve seen him reading books about both of those diseases, but never anything about alcoholism.
