WOW, now we have traitors in the White House. I guess I have always assumed incorrectly that the term “traitor”  referred to a person that betrayed his or her country.  Henry Kissinger was once asked if he thought that President Richard Nixon was getting paranoid. Henry Kissingers’ response was very enlightening. He responded by stating that,……….                                                                                                                                                   ” Even a paranoid man can have enemys.”
I have always associated the term “traitor” with clandestine espionage punishable by death during wartime. I do not think this is the case right now. Historically however, the difference between being a Traitor and a Patriot is determined by who wins the war. So maybe it is applicable in this situation considering we are in a Uncivil War of sorts. In this unique political war in which we are all engaged, we are all losers.

      Why? Because WE “are” our country.  We are all losing respect at home and abroad. We are losing our dignity, credibility and confidence in our leadership. I am very concerned that President Trump is overly concerned about the polls now. There must be a traitor in the White House because I did my research and Poland is not experiencing any crisis at all right now! We must find that traitor that gave him bad information!

I am going out on a limb right now but…. I believe that…..

Vice President Pence will be the next President of the United States.         I am not referring to the next election cycle. There may come a time between now and then that will require the Leadership in Congress to address this issue with President Trump.  The hatred and hostilities and anger can not continue indefinitely ! This perpetual daily soap opera is a distraction that needs to be resolved or the President will need to resign for the good of the country. It will be up to the Republican Leadership to see this through and explain it to President Trump IF it becomes necessary. The Presidency is quickly becoming a very sick and very dangerous soap opera. We do not need this drama. We do not even have ambassadors in several countries even after more than a year !! Our President needs our help. I pray for President Trump to recieve help from above or anywhere else and  from congress. OUR COUNTRY comes FIRST. This situation reflects badly on all of us.  Do you remember the Cain Mutiny with Humphrey Bogart?  That is where we are pushing President Trump right now. I can see it very clearly. Can you?

REGARDING APOLOGY TO:    SENATOR JOHN  MCCAIN  STATE OF ARIZONA……

DEAR SENATOR McCAIN,

PLEASE ACCEPT MY HUMBLE APOLOGY FOR THE STATEMENT MADE BY A YOUNG WHITEHOUSE STAFF MEMBER THAT PROBABLY WAS NOT EVEN BORN YET WHEN YOU WERE SERVING OUR COUNTRY AS A  PILOT IN VIETNAM. YOU HAVE OUR COUNTRYS’ AND MY GREATEST ADMIRATION AND GRATITUDE.  I CAN NOT FATHOM THE EXTENT OF THE PAIN AND SUFFERING THAT YOU AND YOUR FELLOW PRISONERS OF WAR HAD TO ENDURE IN VIETNAM. I EXTEND THIS APOLOGY TO YOU AND YOUR FELLOW VETERANS AND ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN THAT HAVE SERVED THIS COUNTRY IN UNIFORM.  I HOPE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY CAN FIND IT IN YOUR HEARTS TO FORGIVE THIS YOUNG WOMAN HER YOUTH, INEXPERIENCE AND POOR JUDGEMENT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR.

RESPECTFULLY,

Marc Baker                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   I wrote this apology as a private citizen because our President and the White House did not and WILL NOT allow the young lady to apologize. Donald Trump is our President. He is a public servant. He works for us. He works for ALL of us. We do NOT all work for President Trump. Politics suffers from the same  problems as the  ‘NEWS”. The people that run the show are beholding to those that put them in office. We are capitalists. IT ALL GETS DOWN TO THE MONEY !!

 

There are the people and CORPORATIONS that pay millions and millions of dollars and they expect to have the Presidents ear if and when elected. There is an old saying in WDC.  “You gotta dance with the one that brung you !”

That is slang for:   ” So here we are. You owe me/us because without me/us…you wouldn’t be here. Here is the way we suggest you handle this situation.” It is polite blackmail. Our president has got too many irons in the fire. He is going to crack. We really need to get our president some help. He is not having the fun he anticipated. I know what it is like to watch people have a break down. I personally have been through it.  We either get our President some help or we will have a political fiasco like we have never seen !! BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS…the ratings will be great!

I HOPE I AM WRONG.
