The Ultimate Fuck You, I Got Mine

The Trump Parade passed by.

Now, there is silence.

The children stand silent.

Are the children haunting Trump, with their staring eyes ?


They haunt me.

What does a child do, when their cries are not answered ? What kind of "fuck you, I got mine," is aimed at a child ?


The babies and toddlers are in Trump's rear view mirror.


I do not hazard to guess that there is anyone that Trump looks at, without thinking of how he can use them, cheat them, silence them.

He had no interest in his children, when they were young. He left them to his first wife. He used them in photo-ops to project an image.


The Pretenders/Chrissie Hynde

In the middle of the road you see the darnedest things
Like fat guys driving 'round in jeeps through the city
Wearing big diamond rings and silk suits
Past corrugated tin shacks full up with kids
Oh man I don't mean a Hampstead nursery
When you own a big chunk of the bloody third world
The babies just come with the scenery


… Oh come on baby
Get in the road
Oh come on now
In the middle of the road

Trump squawked to his fan base, before the weekend-

"We got more money, we got more brains, we got better houses and apartments, we got nicer boats, we’re smarter than they are and they say they’re the elite. You’re the elite, we’re the elite,” he said, branding the elite “stone cold losers” and adding: “Let’s call ourselves, from now on, the super elites. We're the super-elite."



Nice monomaniac, you have there, Republicans.


yikes

Sort of funny, because he pilfers everything from the true elite. Erzatz "classy."Mimics everything that he guesses is associated with the elite.


FFS, he is so obsessed with old school, his son is burdened with the name of Barron. (When Trump used alts of himself, to promote himself, and get free publicity.) Too cheap to hire a publicist, he pretended to be his own publicist. Barron was the name he used for one of his alts. He pretends that he has Coat of Arms. He has stolen it from another family, and altered it.

On the other hand, what imagery Trump associates with himself, that he presents to the public, is so over the top. It seems to be a sadistically deliberate mockery of American worship of "classy."

No Free Milk For Babies

Trump does not want freeloading babies nursing at mother's breast.
Trump does not want to provide safe water to Americans, or international.

How do you feed the baby milk from powdered formula if the water is unsafe ?


No Free Clean Water For Babies


Trump cuts international aid for clean water.
Scott Pruitt rolls back water protections before he leaves office under avalanche of scandals.


No Free Food For Babies

Trump cuts benefits to babies, provides no prenatal care to mothers.

Trump seeks to cut everything from the budget.

We will be in trillions of national debt because of tax cut to wealthy.

American Goons bully baby protectors



This spring at the World Health Assembly, the United States fought a resolution to encourage breast-feeding, according to a new report by the New York Times.


Why would Trump send a U.S. delegation to fight breast-feeding ?


The milk formula industry has been struggling against stagnating sales in recent years, but is still worth $70bn annually. The small number of giants that produce it are concentrated in the US and Europe.

One of those giants, Abbott Nutrition, is part of the healthcare multinational Abbott Laboratories that contributed to Trump’s inauguration ceremonies in January 2017.

Blackmail-

During the deliberations over the breastfeeding resolution, according to the New York Times, the US delegation made threatening suggestions that Washington would cut its funding for the World Health Organisation. As the single largest donor to the world body, awarding $845m last year, that threat would not have been taken lightly.

Trump pays lip service to his wealthy donors, and sends goons to Geneva, to threaten on behalf of wealthy donors. Trump risks no blame, because Russia stepped in to re-instate the original proposal.


JUL. 8, 2018

“It was the Russians who ultimately stepped in to introduce the measure — and the Americans did not threaten them,” the report said

U.S. Opposition To Breast-feeding Resolution Stuns World Health Officials

July 8, 2018

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/08/h...dor-trump.html

Spring conference in Geneva, hundreds of government delegates gathered at the UN affiliated World Health Assembly to say yes to a resolution to promote the breast-feeding of infants and babies.


A program was in the works, that encourages the breast feeding of infants.

The American delegation tried to wreck everything.

Based on decades of research, the resolution says that mother’s milk is healthiest for children and countries should strive to limit the inaccurate or misleading marketing of breast milk substitutes.

Then the United States delegation, embracing the interests of infant formula manufacturers, upended the deliberations.

A Guardian investigation with Save the Children earlier this year found that formula milk firms were using aggressive methods to skirt around the regulations in order to press mothers and healthcare professionals to choose powdered milk over breastfeeding. The measures were particularly intensively deployed in the poorest regions of the world, where most growth in the baby milk formula business is now concentrated.


Fortunately, the resolution passed without the changes made by the U.S.

When that failed, they turned to threats, according to diplomats and government officials who took part in the discussions. Ecuador, which had planned to introduce the measure, was the first to find itself in the cross hairs.

The Americans were blunt: If Ecuador refused to drop the resolution, Washington would unleash punishing trade measures and withdraw crucial military aid. The Ecuadorean government quickly acquiesced.

The showdown over the issue was recounted by more than a dozen participants from several countries, many of whom requested anonymity because they feared retaliation from the United States.

Health advocates scrambled to find another sponsor for the resolution, but at least a dozen countries backed off, citing fears of retaliation, according to officials from Uruguay, Mexico and the United States.

(What leaked out, is that unsafe water sources were used in mixing dry formula.)

How does Trump feel about breast feeding ?


Who knows ? Anything that can be used as a weapon, will be used as a weapon, by him.

Trump was in a jam- He needed to attack
lawyer Elizabeth Beck. He made a false
accusation, and he lied.

After Trump's interview aired, Beck told the New York Times that the businessman's (Trump's) assertion that she wanted to pump the milk in front of people was "just a lie."

https://www.nytimes.com/politics/fi...er-in-breast-pump-incident-a-horrible-person/

There was an epidemic of condo scams for some years. Trump never stopped committing condo fraud. He did it nationwide. He took investors for a ride, and they took him to court. Trump corrupted the judges. That did not stop real lawyers from fighting Trump's thefts.

Elizabeth Beck did her job. She was thorough, she did a competent job. Her client was thoroughly prepped. When the lawyer, Elizabeth Beck, asked for a medical break, Mr. Trump and his lawyers objected. Elizabeth requested an hour's break for lunch, and part of the hour would be spent pumping milk for her three month old baby.

Trump ran out of suckers. He took his condo grifting to Canada. That did not work out so well, for him. Trump does not like Canada.




In a 2011 deposition for a case related to a failed Florida condo and hotel development, the plaintiff's lawyer Elizabeth Beck starts by asking Trump to look at a document.

The video of Trump's deposition in that case was never released, but there is a transcript. (link) November 16, 2011

Donald Trump lashed out Wednesday at a female lawyer whom he had called "disgusting" several years ago for requesting a break to pump breast milk in the middle of a deposition, calling her a "vicious, horrible person."

"...and I may have said that's disgusting, I may have said something else. I thought it was terrible," Trump said. "She's a vicious, horrible person."

Elizabeth Beck described the 2011 encounter -- first reported by the New York Times late Tuesday -- as Trump having "an absolute meltdown" in an interview with CNN's "New Day" Wednesday morning.


"He got up, his face got red, he shook his finger at me and he screamed, 'You're disgusting, you're disgusting,' and he ran out of there," Beck said.

2011 deposition during which Trump erupted in anger when attorney Elizabeth Beck, who had recently given birth, said she would use part of the lunch break to pump breast milk. “He starts screaming, ‘You’re disgusting!’” Beck says.

Of a matter of course, Trump's goons walked back the insults, abuse, and letter Trump wrote to Elizabeth's husband. The woman did her job, and Trump had to answer in court. He did not want to be in court for the deposition, after his evasive tactics and clowning failed. He was getting nailed on real, legal questions, and was faced with accountability. He took it out on her.

Trump had his breastfeeding, as a baby. He got his!

Fuck all of these new born babies, born in the poorest nations on Earth.


Nestle, Abbott, and Mead Johnson make billions of dollars from bamboozling women from third world nations. The mothers go without food, because the baby formula is so expensive. It takes 3/4 of a family's income. The babies die from insufficient and incomplete nutrition, tainted formula, and lack of immunization, because they did not get it through their mother's milk.

The formula companies are forbidden to falsely advertise the baby food, but they do it, anyway. They are forbidden to pressure hospitals, doctors, and nurses, but they do it anyway.

Hundreds of thousands of babies die, so that they can make 7 billion dollars worth of profit.

That was yesterday's news. Since then Russia has said breast feeding is just fine and Trump backed off. (Really)
