NUKES: Who's responsible?

| February 23, 2018 12:00 AM

I get all the criticisms of President Trump. I really do. Some justified. Some true. Some not true.

But we must all admit that our mind-set bias can definitely influence our perspective or beliefs about any topic. For example, I find the following Facebook post interesting — worth considering in the total picture of political facts. You might or might not agree with me about its relevance. But can you read this observation with an open mind:

“Now let me see if I got all of this straight. If we get nuked, it’ll be by missiles built with technology given to China by Bill Clinton, funded by Iran with the millions of dollars Obama gave them, With the warheads developed from uranium sold to Russia by Hillary and refined by Iran into weapons-grade plutonium in Russian centrifuges bought with money Obama gave them. And Trump’s trying to undo this dangerous storm, but he’s the traitor? Amazing. Just amazing.”

Thought-provoking. We must remember that no political action is an isolated result. Many people and factors affect where we are, presently. It is called history.
