| Zinke was a rising star in Washington. Then he joined the Trump administration. |
| Zinke's zeal in boosting coal and gas production on public lands angered Democrats who supported him, and his tendency to overstep the limits of his power at Interior worried Republicans and the president. |

The Hard, Central Truth Of Contemporary Conservatism
The hard, central "fact" of contemporary "conservatism" is its insistence on a socio-economic threshold above which people deserve government assistance, and below which people deserve to die.
The sooner the better.
Unless conservatives are showing n'er-do-wells The Door of Doom, they just don't "feel right."
To allay this chthonic anxiety, they resort to Human Sacrifice, hoping that spilled blood will placate "the angry gods," including the one they've made of themselves. http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2013/09/harvard-study-45000-americans-die.html
Having poked their own eyes out, they fail to see that self-generated wrath creates "the gods" who hold them thrall.

The Evangelical Persecution Complex(Projection's Finest Hour)
Almost "to a man," contemporary "conservatives" have apotheosized themselves and now -- sitting on God's usurped throne -- are rabid to pass Final Judgment.
Self-proclaimed Christians, eager to thrust "the undeserving" through The Gates of Hell, are the very people most likely to cross its threshold.
Remarkably, although they are prone to believe all manner of Trumpeted nonsense, none of them are tempted to believe in their own spiritual peril.

Quora Question: Trump Said "GDP Has In Fact Doubled And Tripled Since I Took Over." True?
Trump said "GDP, in fact, has doubled and tripled since I've taken over." Is this true?
A blatant lie, “pants on fire” category.
The GDP of the US rose from 18,624,500M.$ in 2016 to 19,390,600M.$ in 2017, that’s a growth of 2.3%, not 100%, let alone 200% like Trump claimed. It’s not even impressive or extraordinary, Obama had better growth than that.
Are there really any Trumpists who believe that kind of raging nonsense? If yes, how can they live like this? If no, why are they still behind him?

"Politicians Have Caused A Pay "Collapse" For The Bottom 90% Of Workers," WAPO
Politicians have caused a pay ‘collapse’ for the bottom 90 percent of workers, researchers say
Alan: Since 1979, the bottom 90% of workers have seen their share of "pay" decline by 23.1%.

Political decisions by elected officials are largely responsible for a “collapse in pay for the bottom 90 percent” of the labor market since 1979, according to a new analysis of wage stagnation by the Economic Policy Institute, a left-leaning think tank.

"Conservatives Scare More Easily Than Liberals"
Tragically -- and with few exceptions -- fear propels downward psycho-spiritual spirals, worsening bad feeling and spreading ill will.
If you consider yourself Christian, contemplate this verse from John's First Epistle.
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love."1 John 4:18
