Hmm. Maybe Trump’s interest in Panama has nothing to do with the canal. [*cough* cocaine cough] 🤔🌨️

Well, this explains a lot. I don’t know why we hadn’t heard about this connection before, but I suspect it’s just the “drinking from a water hose” theory of being flooded with so much scandal and so little appetite for angering this dangerous man. We should hear more about it but I won’t hold my breath waiting for responsible journalism to kick in. Thanks for this! I couldn’t figure out WTH was with him attacking Panama of all places.

Yep. the firehose of bullshit is precisely what is happening with him most of the time. The Rand Corporation published an in-depth article detailing Russia's use of the "firehose of falsehoods" and another one discussing countering it. I will do an article and/or an eBook about it later this week.

It's a deep enough topic I will probably do an article and then publish and eBook that goes deeper into the theory, trump's use of it, and how to defeat him at his own game. :-)
