CNN state media narrative engineers (think State Dept. in all things CNN) are running with a story to promote a new book by Josh Dawsey (Wall Street Journal – Author), Tyler Pager (New York Times – Author), Isaac Arnsdorf (Washington Post – Author) where they write about an audio segment by candidate Trump telling NY donors how he threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping.
The leaked audio is essentially unremarkable as President Trump has told this story several times. However, the background context is more interesting when we consider the motives of the WSJ, NYT and WaPo. Here’s the segment:
The WSJ is against President Trump based on economics; WSJ representing Wall Street. The NYT is against President Trump based on DHS/DOJ domestic opposition from within DC. The WaPo is against President Trump based on the CIA position and larger intelligence community. None of the motives within these outlets are challenged by the intellectually honest political observers.
So, what’s the play here?
There are trillions at stake.
The goals and objectives of the trio corporate aligned entities is to paint President Trump into a corner regarding Russia.
Currently Russian President Vladimir Putin is praising President Trump saying, he genuinely believes “Trump wants to create peace”, while simultaneously Putin is preparing for an American-led NATO war against Russia. How do these two points reconcile?
Actually, it’s not difficult.
President Putin is well aware that President Trump does not control the elements within the U.S. intelligence apparatus who are organizing and facilitating the proxy war using Ukraine. Simultaneously, President Putin senses that Trump genuinely wants to create peace.
In the mind of President Putin, and in the growing awareness of the American electorate, the President of the United States does not control the Intelligence Community. It is entirely possible for the USIC to take America to war despite the President and people of America not wanting that outcome. Putin is simply prepared for that outcome.
That reality explains the dynamic where President Trump engages with President Putin in an effort to stop the war in Ukraine, yet President Putin continues the war in Ukraine because he knows President Trump does not control the elements that facilitate the Ukraine military.
People struggle with this concept; however, I would remind everyone that right now YOU are paying for the entire government of Ukraine to exist. Including the Ukraine govt payrolls, retirement benefits, healthcare and operational budget of Ukraine overall.
Americans do not want to pay for that. President Trump does not want to pay for that. Yet, here we are; paying for that. The same unilateral process applies to the literal Ukraine war and conflict with Russia.
You might not want it. President Trump might not want it; yet, here we are providing weapons, intelligence, satellite communication, personnel and systems for the war. This is the reality of the situation regardless of your/my willingness to accept it.
President Putin cannot negotiate based on a reality of what he would like to see. Instead he has to make determinations based on what is factually evident. Putin accepts things as they are, not as the rest of the world pretends them to be. Therein lies the problem.
[NOTE: “cockroaches” in a Russian context are individuals who oppose your goals]
I have said all along the #1 way to cut this Gordian knot is to stop pretending. However, the pretenders are working diligently to block President Trump’s knot cutting desires. This the the context for the audio “leak” promoters in combination with the motive of the entities who recorded and leaked it.
I will keep watching, from a position of advanced reconnaissance. It’s no longer safe here and I’m working my way back {fingers crossed}. These simple truths are evident from looking directly at where things are now and I share them because we cannot have an honest conversation without first acknowledging the true landscape around us.
The Epstein stuff is serving a purpose. People are chasing the shiny thing.
Trump does not want war with Russia. However…
Just in case he fails, prepare for war.
Enjoy your day.
Live your very best life.
