Donald Trump’s timing could have been better. On the campaign trail in Des Moines , the president told supporters, “We’re going to win the great state of Iowa and it’s going to be a historic landslide. And if we don’t win, your farms are going to hell.”

A sad state of affairs. It’s incredible the way we can believe a lie that counters our reality.

Rosaliene, I suspect the ability of Iowa farmers to believe this particular lie has a lot to do with the fragmentation of their communities. There used to be a time when small farmers would come to each other’s assistance when they experienced financial difficulties.

Say it a thousand times and it becomes the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth! “Mentez, mentez, il en restera toujours quelque chose!” (Some French speaking dude said that a long time ago)

“Soient pour les oiseaux” – cette phrase prend le subjonctif, n’est ce pas?

I know it isn’t that important but I think Tube was translating an “Americanism” which is “it’s for the birds” as in something worthless. That’s an idiom so has no meaningful direct translation in French. To translate it verbatim, you would write, “l’Amerique, c’est pour les oiseaux.” How I would translate it to mean what it should mean is, “l’Amerique, c’est de la merde.” 🤢

Not surprised at all, these are manufactured clouds, the official ‘cloud atlas’ changed many years ago, you can find it online, to include man-made clouds.
