We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire. We know that in secrecy error undetected will flourish and subvert.” –J.

It’s time to recall Trump Gravity and “the roller coaster”!
Well, I don’t really have to do any holding together, now that I figured out what Trump is up to. He is shaking things out, but counting on Trump gravity to pull things back together as he moves along. He is moving “forward” at speeds Obama could not even dream of.
You and I will be anti-Trump trolls one day and MAGA heroes the next. Get used to it. Trump speed is the new normal. Some will call it flip-flopping, but that’s not what it is. Trump is dodging and weaving through reality faster than the reality can react to disrupt his plans.
I was explaining this to my wife. This is a roller-coaster now. Trump is no longer waiting for people to keep up. He is taking his bewildering art-of-the-deal campaign schtick into geopolitics, and for a lot of people who can’t keep up or hold on, it will be a rough ride.
Trump is no longer playing only with evil and cunning players who are still predictable, easily beatable dopes, like Hillary. He is playing against killers, with his own team of killers, and all the while he has scheming creeps like Hillary, BGI, SPLC, and the neocons gunning for him. Snake Ryan ready to bite when nobody is looking. “Warhead” McCain screaming for Russian blood. Psycho Kim and Samoa Obama plotting some kind of intrigue to take him down. And THOSE are the lightweights.
This is the majors now. Trump has to outwit world-class adversaries and “frenemies” by defining the deals that they will agree to. One minute they will think Trump is their friend – the next minute, a cunning, bitter foe. And he has to do this with evil cheerleaders like Warhead, Linderace, Dipsy Dowd, Maggie Haterman, and Fake Yapper trashing him or praising him alternately, no matter which way he goes. They can’t keep up, either.
Neither can many around him. I think that half of the problem with advisers crashing into each other is they don’t realize what Trump is doing.
And people will trash you, and they will trash me. Get used to it. I’ve already caught plenty of people mocking me. Well, just wait a week in Trump time. Look stupid and conned by Trump one minute, and you look like a sage three days later.
Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more. Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity. Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later. Trump is Jupiter moving through the asteroid belt. He is going to pull people into his orbit. A few will get slung off into space, but most will come along for the ride of their lives.
I am ON the Trump Train for good, even if I scream that I want off and can’t take it. In the end, I only want to scream “TOO MUCH WINNING!!!”
Wolf’s 2024 Comment
If you are not seeing just how remarkably similar things are right now, to the way they were at the end of 2016 and beginning of 2017, then please re-read the above post ONE MORE TIME. While you do so, think about all that Trump is doing now – before he has even taken office.
Think of what he is preparing to do – that you know about. Think of what he is preparing to do that you DON’T know about. Ask yourself which part of that iceberg is bigger.
Think of how President Trump is going to Make America Great Again – and BEYOND. Far, far beyond.
Trump is literally bringing TITANS into his orbit. And I mean BIG titans.
Stars rapidly orbiting the giant black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy.
But Trump doesn’t just care about the physical realm. Consider how Trump is always aligning himself with the forces of good, of love, and of peace in this world.
It was a privilege to host Mrs. Akie Abe at Mar-a-Lago once again. We fondly remembered her late husband, former Prime Minister Abe, and honored his remarkable legacy.

Watch how Trump is skillfully working around corrupted, broken, and ossified government processes. Watch how Trump is dealing with world problems already, despite all the forces, both at home and abroad, which are allied against him.
We are experiencing Trump Gravity in ways that I simply could not have predicted in 2017. Trump is beyond a mere TITAN at this point. He is GARGANTUAN. He is stretching, compressing, and shifting SPACE AND TIME THEMSELVES. And yet – it’s OK.
In God We Trust – as we enjoy this amazing ride in His loving universe.
Live your best life. All around the world the Communist Left and their insufferable foot soldiers are in retreat and crisis mode. Their world is shrinking. They are becoming irrelevant. We are everywhere. Nimble, snarky, fast and with the sunlight arguments that defeat them. Live your very best life. Ignore the dark imaginings they attempt to present in their last desperate effort to remain relevant.

Flash forward 92-plus years to Donald Trump’s rally Sunday at New York’s Madison Square Garden, a bleak, lurid festival of racist hate and profane vituperation so vile that even fellow Republicans, who have turned a blind eye to Trump’s character for years, are distancing themselves from the event. —Michael Hiltzik, Los Angeles Times, 29 Oct. 2024
The politicization of the COVID response has only worsened this trend, likely resulting in part from Trump’s vituperation. —Matt Motta, Scientific American, 29 Oct. 2024

I’m sorry, but Festivus has me in the mood to play my favorite song!
In case you’re wondering what a “ferrocell” is, there’s a fascinating paper describing how one works.
The beauty of this song – other than simply being well-done, is that in some pleasing ways, the actual science of sunlight shining on the orbiting moon, blocked by its own orbiting mass, corresponds with, and maybe even transforms through the “crackpot matrix” to, the dithering of Mr. (at)witsit about ferrocells and whatnot.
Between “real” science and “pseudo” science, I’m falling in love with the crazy beauty of this universe!

THE STUFF
If you want to see how much bad science is out there, just watch this lady review a scientific paper that was getting some “wowee” buzz.
You don’t have to understand the equations – just assume for the moment that she knows what she’s talking about (this is her area of science).
But notice that the opposite should also be true (and she says it). Some valuable gems get lost in the trash as well. Good science is increasingly not noticed, until it is rediscovered a second or third time and somehow gets more attention.
