Absolute Power...

"Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.  Great men are almost always bad men, even when they exercise influence and not authority; still more when you superadd the tendency of the certainty of corruption by authority." -- Lord Acton

 Origin -- The Full Story

Absolute monarchies are those in which all power is given to or, as is more often the case, taken by, the monarch.  Examples of absolute power having a corrupting influence are Roman emperors (who declared themselves gods) and Napoleon Bonaparte (who declared himself an emperor).

"Absolute power corrupts absolutely" arose as part of a quotation by the expansively named John Emerich Edward Dalberg Acton, first Baron Acton (1834 - 1902). The historian and moralist, who was otherwise know as Lord Acton, expressed this opinion in a letter to Bishop Mandell Creighton in 1887:

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.  Great men are almost always bad men."

 

This is how little Donny Drumpf sees her, er, HIMself.


Vanity thy name is Donald J. Trump.

Trump Is Not A Leader. He’s A Figurehead

A leader does just that – leads.

A figurehead is just that – someone who is in a particular position just to fill a seat; a warm body, although in his case, cold as ice, flabby, bloated, delicate, vain, racist,white supremacist, homophobic,narcissistic and about as intelligent as a pile of rocks.  Genius?  Hardly.

These are the people with whom he is sleeping… that we know of:

Russian "President/Tyrant" Vladimir Putin

 

Saudi Prince/Tyrant Mohammad n Bin Salman Al Saud (MBS)

Chinese President-For-Life/Dictator Xi Jinping

 

Philippine President/Tyrant Duterte

North Korean Supreme Leader/Dictator Kim Jong Un

These are the ones that we know of who are in bed with Donny Trump.  That's more than his wife, Melanoma, so yes, you could say he's a whore. Or slut. Take your pick.

Among the questions he continually avoids is, "Why do you admire these divisive, tyrannical men?"  My hunch is that he wishes he could be a king, or dictator, or tyrant right here in the U.S.  We are just so mean to poor little Donny Trump.

Pretty sure in the cases of Putin and the Saudi Prince, it's money in the form of loans from those countries directly to Trump's bank accounts.  I say accounts because of the clever, comical, "creative" ways in which his tiny little army of bookkeepers and accountants have misplaced, forgotten or otherwise hidden those liquid assets and liabilities.

And, to be clear, no, we (the American people) will never know 100% about or where those assets are located.

But, looking at the Rogue's Gallery, makes you think, right?

*Update*
Take a look at CNN's reporting about Trump's Taxes between 1985 - 1994. Very enlightening.
