The Emperor Has No Balls
Posted by Michelle Moquin on August 28th, 2016
Good morning!
I posted this blog write last Saturday and then decided to trash it. Why? Well because I thought, “What if this was done to Hillary? How would I feel then?” This is not who I really am. I don’t want to go with Trump where the repubs have gone.
And then I thought, “Wait a second here. The Dems do need to go there.” I understand why they needed to go there, and why I decided to pull my blog out of the trash and post it again today.
Let’s look at Trump and the horrific things he has done that aren’t even close to this naked caricature that liberals have created of Trump. Trump does sick things to others all of the time.
Trump claimed Ted Cruz’s father was involved with the assassination of President Kennedy. (!) Even though, yes, these statues are a bit insulting it is not even close to accusing someone of murder, when we know this is false, but so far only the republican party has consistently accused the opposing party POTUS candidate of murder, http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/bill-clinton-says-gop-attacks-they-accused-me-murder-n577896.
Trump is as low as any despicable member of that party. He too, has followed that political line of attack against the Democrats during his announcement of Pence as his VP pick, he accused Hillary of getting away with murder. http://www.politicususa.com/2016/07/16/trump-accused-hillary-clinton-murder-disastrous-mike-pence-announcement.html
Trump accused Obama of being the founder of ISIS. (!) Ok, again, the statues are a caricature of Trump, but to accuse a POTUS of being the founder of ISIS is just ridiculous and a defamation of character.
Accusing Obama of being the founder of ISIS is especially grievous considering the fact that he had during his run for the Republican nomination accused the then President Bush and his administration of knowingly lying to invade Iraq. — “But in the last GOP debate, Republican candidate front-runner Donald Trump took things to a new level. He not only called the decision to go to war “a big, fat mistake” (and, post-debate, proclaimed it “a disaster”) but also said: “They lied. They said there were weapons of mass destruction. There were none, and they knew there were none.” – http://townhall.com/columnists/larryelder/2016/02/18/trump-bush-administration-knowingly-lied-about-iraq-war-intel-n2120851
In full disclosure mode, I will admit that I too think that Bush and Cheney started the Iraq war to make a killing in their investments in Military industrial company stocks. Whatever their reasons were the American people now know that the Bush administration lied to get America to illegally attack the sovereign country of Iraq.
The “Shock and Awe” Bush and Cheney has been so proud of caused the dislocation, maiming and death of tens of MILLIONS of innocent people in Iraq. There used to be millions of Christians in Iraq before the Bush invasion. —“Here’s also the short truth you won’t hear from the hard right: It wasn’t long after the US invasion that Iraqi Christians starting fleeing the country. Many women and girls were drug into the streets and raped or killed. They were also sold into slavery. Petitions for the Bush administration to do something, do anything to help, were circulated starting in 2003 to no avail. No one in the USA who had the power to do anything seemed to care.”— http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/08/08/1320161/-Plight-of-Christians-in-Iraq-Began-When-GW-Bush-Invaded-in-March-2003-Obama-Urged-Action-in-2007
Bush’s destruction of Iraq’s government which acted as a control over the Shiites, released them to become head of the government of Iraq. —“As President Obama struggles to deal with the crisis in Iraq, it’s useful to remember who gave the world this cauldron of woe in the first place: George W. Bush and Dick Cheney.
Their decision to launch a foolish and unwarranted invasion in 2003, toppling Saddam Hussein and destroying any vestige of the Iraqi state, is directly responsible for the chaos we see today, including the rapid advance of the well-armed jihadist militia that calls itself the Islamic State.”—https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/eugene-robinson-paying-for-bushs-2003-invasion-of-iraq/2014/08/11/2eee77ac-218a-11e4-86ca-6f03cbd15c1a_story.html?utm_term=.d3adfc319682
A militarily astute group of Sunnis, who had been the head of the government of Iraq under Sadam, felt abandoned. The Shiites who Bush placed at the head of the government of Iraq, began to torture, terrorize and murder the Sunnis by the tens of thousands. As a result, the Sunnis aligned themselves with ISIS in self defense. Now we have a militarily, battle heartened cadre of officers who demonstrated that capability by routing the American backed Iraqi Shiite army. http://www.cnn.com/2014/06/10/world/meast/iraq-violence/index.html
That cadre of Sunnis make up the ISIS army that has wrecked havoc across the Middle East. The problem for the West is ISIS has mutated into an insane group determined to avenge itself against the West who they feel is responsible for the millions of dead and displaced Sunnis across the Middle East.
That brings us back to Trump. There is a difference between the person who hits first (Trump and the republicans) and the reaction to their attack (The Democrats, including moi). The Dems didn’t start this low degenerate stuff. Trump did. And the repubs cannot claim innocence, because they sat back and said nothing. The Democrats have a history of cowering under the salacious attacks launched against them by the republicans.
This girl cowers before no one. I will never start nastiness, but if you bring it, I will do my best to finish it. So my caveat to mean, evil people is “bring it only if you can handle my reply.”
Yes, I took my blog write down but I realized a retaliatory act is not the same as an initial attack. The Republicans use the argument of false equivalency to arrive at a fallacy in logic which claims that mimicking a disgusting act they perpetrated is the same as perpetrating that act. I say, don’t bring it, if you can’t handle the reply. Republicans can dish it out but they can’t take. So, Trump, handle this!
Here’s the write pulled from the trash:
I see that lips were flapping. How delightful that so many of you decided to go into the weekend kissing instead of blogging. Sweet.
I’m sure many of you have heard about this already but again, I couldn’t help but post this. Especially since it happened in my San Francisco one of the five cities. And to think I was just in the Castro the evening before Trump graced us. So sorry to miss this one.
Here’s the write from Daily Kos:
Naked statues of Donald Trump titled ‘The Emperor Has No Balls’ are popping up in major cities
An “anarchist collective” called INDECLINE (Twitter account here) are behind a series of nude statues depicting Donald Trump in his birthday clothes. Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” these series of statues are called “The Emperor Has No Balls.” This is possibly the darkest story I’ve ever had to cover.
Warning: You cannot unsee what you are about to see.
New York.
San Francisco.
Los Angeles.
Seattle.
Cleveland’s statue is still MIA on Twitter.
Update:
The New York statue was taken down. According to the Gothamist.
Parks Department spokesperson Sam Biederman provided us with the following statement regarding the Trump statue:
NYC Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no matter how small.
The best statement from a city official ever? Probably.
**Aahahhahah!**
Readers: Unfortunately the cities had to remove Trump. Oh if it was just that easy to truly get rid of him!
San Francisco lasted the longest (I think) – Trump was still erect…eh I mean standing, until yesterday morning! Woo Hoo! Thank you San Francisco. Oh, how I love my city.
Did any of you get a photo op with Trump?
On a serious note though was this a good idea or not? How would we think if Hillary was depicted this way?
Blog me.
*The End*
Readers: And there you have it. Lots to talk about on this Sunday morning. Pick a topic that suits you and get a conversation going. The forum is open.
Blog me.
Peace & Love: “Live it, give it.”
Lastly, greed over a great story is surfacing from my “loyal”(?) readers. With all this back and forth about who owns what, that appears on my blog, let me reiterate that all material posted on my blog becomes the sole property of my blog. If you want to reserve any proprietary rights don’t post it to my blog. I will prominently display this caveat on my blog from now on to remind those who may have forgotten this notice.
Gratefully your blog host,

The tweet by the NY dept of works ordered to remove the statute was priceless :
“NYC Parks stands firmly against any unpermitted erection in city parks, no matter how small,”
LOL
Happy Saturday everybody!

OOOh, You are good Michelle. And so true. The bushes and their partners in crime made $Billions from the invasion of Iraq. War criminals the lot of them.
But they will not only walk, but live to do it all over again.
August 28th, 2016 at 4:08 pm
Awesome article, glad you decided to publish it.
Bush et al gained big time and left the gaping hole for Obama to fill.
Was out and about yesterday all day having fun, will go back for a read on the endangered animal list and I think it’s way longer than 12 but could be how they’re categorized?
Luv, ZL
August 28th, 2016 at 9:28 pm
Wow, yesterday’s article (and everyone expressed it already) we humans sure know how to screw things up for ourselves and animals, who have no say, (along with abused children, smh) luv that you’re an advocate for animals, that Bornean orangutan is enough to make me want to go off the grid and save them all.

Man, that dude has tiny hands!
August 28th, 2016 at 11:09 pm
Trump is just plain ugly, inside and out. the ugliest part about him is his EVIL SOUL. fortunately, he has revealed himself enough for smart Americans to reject on November 8, Which we will !!!!
August 28th, 2016 at 11:10 pm
I’m voting for Trump regardless of his hideous physique.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:10 pm
That’s just stupid Sam#7.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:14 pm
Trumps hideous physique only supports his hideous personality and soul. he is repugnant to sane Americans.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:16 pm
Holly#8, Well, if it makes Hillary supporters happy, I’ve never voted for the winning President, unless you kind of count Gore.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:18 pm
Sam#10, Nothing wrong with voting for someone who is losing…at least you gave it your best shot…
August 28th, 2016 at 11:20 pm
If it were a naked Hillary, think the city would of removed it for the lack of a licence pretty quickly. But. this is San Francisco.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:21 pm
Trump’s wife naked. Trump naked. The Liberal press is getting desperate.
Just glad we don’t have to see Hillary naked. Judging by Bill Clinton’s never ending philandering, even her husband doesn’t want to see her naked.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:22 pm
Looks better than hefty cankle Hillary. Good one Mercury Russian News. Continue raising the Mushroom Society by feeding them sh$! and keeping them in the dark. Just like Gobbels the propaganda minister.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:23 pm
HILLARY IS GOING TO WIN AND tiny hands IS LOSING AS WE SPEAK!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
August 28th, 2016 at 11:24 pm
Norton#12, Hillary didn’t insult people, and she happens not to be a dispicable racist! Donald got what he deserved and I hope this haunts him as long as he lives!!!
August 28th, 2016 at 11:33 pm
Milton#15, You are exactly correct, she is going to win. Unfortunately, we don’t have a great choice ahead of us do we, between the two? That said though, as an Independent, I would rather risk 4 years with Trump, than 8 years with Hillary. I am sure you agree that other nations really don’t see Hillary as a strong person or a qualified leader of the free world. Why would they, she is one crises away from another crises. I am sure you agree we need to act intelligently and with common sense; however, that would mean Hillary is not president. Please don’t be a part of the Mushroom Society where the media and Democrates feed you sh$! and keep you in the dark.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:35 pm
Most men would have that opinion of a woman for president. She has more” balls” than that whiny punk Trump..as you can see in the statue…lol
August 28th, 2016 at 11:36 pm
You go Hillary… give Trump the wrecking ball! And while you’re at it, take down as many Republicans as you can this November.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:37 pm
“… most reviled politicians.” – Where’s the statue of Hillary?
August 28th, 2016 at 11:38 pm
First, if you say ‘most men,’ then you must have an opinion on men. Guess what, then I can have an opinion on ‘most women.’ My opinion is that we should and will have a woman as president, and I think that would be a breath of fresh air; however, you (as in the virginal vote, as it is referred to) want just any old, sickly, woman to have the office. That makes no sense. Secondly, I believe she does have balls and that is why Bill has had over 1000 affairs. He should have married a woman
August 28th, 2016 at 11:39 pm
The story line is so accurate when it comes to Trump and his supporters:
“The Emperor’s New Clothes” is a short tale by Hans Christian Andersen about two weavers who promise an emperor a new suit of clothes that is invisible to those who are unfit for their positions, stupid, or incompetent. When the Emperor parades before his subjects in his new clothes, no one dares to say that they don’t see any suit of clothes until a child cries out, “But he isn’t wearing anything at all!”
It’s 100% Trump and his followers who are so enthralled with their “emperor” that he can do no wrong.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:42 pm
CM#20, where’s the insults she hurled at disabled people and women? Answer that jackbooty”
August 28th, 2016 at 11:42 pm
Loved it Michelle. Apparently, it was cold in the pool. But not at the buffet.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:45 pm
Sal#21, is too bad your little dick hero is losing. He’s so desperate he will talk bullshit to anyone who listens to him.
He was right when he said the poorly educated people like you would fall for it!!!
August 28th, 2016 at 11:47 pm
I’m an independent and no, I absolutely do NOT agree with you. Trump is the most horrific choice the US has ever had. He is a horrible person who is completely unqualified. He would be our first dictator.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:50 pm
Guy#22, Nobody said he could do no wrong. Trump is by no means perfect, but he speaks to issues Americans are concerned about. I find him to be the lesser of two evils.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:51 pm
Trump’s campaign is not much different than many of his Reality TV shows. Same belligerence, same divisiveness and more importantly, same obnoxiousness.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:55 pm
CM#27, Correction: He speaks to issues “certain” Americans are concerned about. As for who you find the lesser of two evils, that’s not reflected in the polls. Oh, but then again Trump supporters don’t believe what polls say… unless they show Trump ahead.
The American voters will look at both candidates and decide which has the better qualifications and temperament to be the next U.S. President. Good luck with your hopes that will be Trump.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:56 pm
I hear he has tiny tiny hands?
August 28th, 2016 at 11:56 pm
The only thing that’s not visible are his tax returns.
August 28th, 2016 at 11:58 pm
Ricky#30, Really tiny hands.
August 29th, 2016 at 12:05 am
Can we get one in Miami? Please???
August 29th, 2016 at 12:06 am
Michelle, you left out that this is after trump took about 5 viagra.
August 29th, 2016 at 12:07 am
That’s awful. That should come with a bottle of eye-bleach as well as a complimentary memory-wipe. I will never be able to unsee what I just endured.
I can’t say I agree with this. It seems indescent and gutteral. Also meaningless from a prez campaign standpoint.
August 29th, 2016 at 12:16 am
I agree with you Michelle, though you be little, your are fierce.
And I and the rest of your fans wouldn’t have it any other way.
August 29th, 2016 at 2:39 am
35 Francis, agree, and now I need a ‘Men in Black’ phaser (or whatever that thing was called) to UN-see this and yea, it is a bit of a beneath the belt blow (pun kind of intended)
36 Vivian, could not agree more!
August 29th, 2016 at 7:23 am
Francis#35, I disagree with you because sometimes there is only one way to stop a bully. That is to hit him/her were it hurts.
This ego manic hurts when he is exposed as a less than normal penis sized man. Since he has no restraints about what he will say about his political or otherwise opponents, short of physical violence(which obviously Michelle and others like her don’t condone) the only way to get to this creep is through a method like this.
As for as being “indescent and gutteral,” that train left the station the minute a black man got elected POTUS. The racist have spent 8 years demeaning Obama, and his wife and children in every “indescent and gutteral” way imaginable while the right just remained silent.
Interestingly I haven’t heard to many outcries by the MSM or people like you complain about the disrespect towards the office of POTUS or its occupants or family.
But I suspect now that the office will return to whites, we will not hear that ole refrain about respecting the office if not the person. At the risk of being “indescent and gutteral,” let me say fuck that hypocritical shit, from now on we will say anything about that office or its occupants especially if they are white.
You don’t get to return the train to the station after 8 years of demeaning the black man who occupied that office.
August 29th, 2016 at 7:40 am
Thank you Boris#38, you better believe white america will try to return to that “ole refrain about respecting the office if not the person,” now (I’m sure your “not” was meant as a now).
But that shit is over with as you have said. I support Hilary in every way I can. But fuck respecting the office of POTUS. Racist whites tore that concept up when they went after Obama with the nastiest comments, portrayals, images, and insults I have ever seen against a POTUS.
All the while, with most of white america accepting it with a smile and a wink while searching history to show us that something like that had been done in the past or just claiming “freedom of speech.”
So to you Francis#35, I say get used to it. The republicans started it and as Michelle said in her own words, we will finish it.
As for your assertion that these types of disgusting insults are “meaningless from a prez campaign standpoint.” Evidently not since trump used those exact tactics to win the republican nomination.
If one party selected a candidate based on his willingness to go “indescent and gutteral,” then you should not expect the opposing party to just sit quietly and accept his disgusting behavior.
Where were you 8 years ago when the racists and the right were demeaning the POTUS and the First Family at every opportunity, or a short few months ago when this creep was demeaning the other 16 republican candidates for the republican nomination?
I despise hypocrites like you.
August 29th, 2016 at 7:42 am
WOW! Michelle, those assertions and links to back them up were dead on. I suspect the donald is seething. Let’s hope you don’t get one of those nasty midnight tweets.
August 29th, 2016 at 8:05 am
The US has discovered a viable nuclear threat from North Korea. The US intelligence has informed Obama that there could be a serious confrontation between them and China over the control of the South China Sea. And Iran is provoking the US at sea with their navy.
Obama is trying not to be the POTUS who kicks us into a nuclear confrontation. But unless his military build up in Guam deters them, this could become a disaster of incredible proportions.
In a strong and unmistakable signal to North Korea and China, the U.S. Air Force has deployed three types of strategic bombers to its base on Guam.
The B-1, B-2 and B-52 bombers are together for the first time in the Pacific. The muscling up comes after China’s recent rejection of an international tribunal saying its claims to the South China Sea, where it has constructed artifical islands, are not valid.
China responded to the ruling by launching fighter jets. Satellite photos show new hangers on its contested islands in the South China Sea. In addition, North Korea recently launched a ballistic missile that traveled more than 600 miles into Japanese waters.
The U.S. Strategic Command (STRATCOM) stations nuclear-capable bombers in the Pacific to deter aggression in the region. But sending all three powerful bombers on Andersen Air Force Base in Guam represents a major escalation.
“This mission demonstrated the U.S. commitment to supporting global security and our ability to launch a credible strategic defense force,” Brig. Gen. Douglas Cox, the 36th Wing commander said of recent exercises involving the bombers in an Air Force statement.
Several B-1s and more than 300 Airmen from Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota arrived at Andersen earlier this month to replace the B-52s assigned to Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota.
Additionally, three B-2s arrived from Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri on Aug. 9 to conduct local sorties and regional training. During the deployment, members of the 509th Bomb Wing will hone skills in such key areas as command and control, air refueling and long-range navigation, while directly interacting with allied military forces, officials said in a statement.
Both presidential candidates have been alerted of the possible nuclear confrontation and the possibility of a need to preempt a nuclear attack by the other side.
Both N. Korea and China are watching the election process very carefully because they believe the US is most susceptible during its transition between POTUS.

[…] Zen Lill: You girls are all correct. It is way more than 12. I didn’t think it was only 12 out of so […]
August 30th, 2016 at 9:39 am
[…] Mike, TM: As usual you are in the know with some staggering news. I HOPE Obama isn’t the POTUS either. This will inevitably be a hard decision that unfortunately will have to be made. Alas with China’s HUGE military it may come down to that scary and horrific act. Be well, Mike. […]
