PLANET VALENTI NEWS AND COMMENTARY

(FORTRESS OF SOLITUDE, WEDNESDAY JULY 10, 2019) — If you’re a woman and you’ve just got a book published, you might think — as did E. Jean Carroll — that the best way to get some cheapo publicity is to accuse the President of the United States of an alleged decades-old sexual assault. Experience, however “#me too” might babble otherwise, suggests the tactic doesn’t work. And in these lazy, crazy, hazy days of another blessed slow summer, when the periphery dominates the political debate at the expense of the Significant, why not take on the peripheral? No, not the budding Epstein case. Rather —

— Come on down, E. Jean Carroll.

The name reminds THE PLANET of J. Alfred Prufrock. We remember what a lit prof told us almost 50 years ago. The affectation of an initial for your Christian name combined with a spelled out middle and surname indicates weakness and self-doubt, a vain attempt to artificially pump up one’s self worth. The insight applies brilliantly to Eliot’s Prufrock, a man in an existential life crisis who can’t decide on much, not even how he should wear the cuffs of his pants … a man who “measures [his] life in coffee spoons.”

We can’t say as much about E. Jean Carroll, though. We only know she’s the advice columnist for Elle magazine, the kind of woman who an expert on everyone else’s problems but she herself is a mess. You know the type. God save us from “experts.”

We also know is that she has a book to sell, which makes the timing of her claims just a tad suspicious.  She waited almost 30 years until now?

There has been a Congress of women who have accused Trump of being “that guy,” but nothing sticks to him. Forget Reagan. Trump’s the all-time Teflon Prez. E. Jean Carroll’s claim sank to the bottom of the Dead Sea. She’s just not believable. Even Nancy Pelosi said of the woman’s accusation: “I haven’t spent any time on that. I don’t know what Congress’ role would be in this.” You go, girl!

Two friends of E. Jean Carroll came out recently in a show of “support.” Carol Martin, ex news anchor for WCBS-TV, said she advised her friend, “Don’t tell anybody.” Lisa Birnbach, author of The Official Preppy Handbook, said E. Jean Carroll called her immediately after the alleged incident. She said E. Jean Carroll was “breathless and laughing.” Birnbach said she laughed right along. Sounds like a real gut-wrench, eh?

You know what they say: With friends like that …

E. Jean Carroll claims she was shopping with Trump when he pushed her against a department store wall, unzipped, and tried to force himself on her. She said she “may have … hit him with my purse; I don’t know.” From there, the story falls apart, and when the lady went on yet another TV tabloid interview, she called rape a sexual thing, something women secretly crave.

Trump said E. Jean Carroll is “totally lying. Number one, she’s not my type. Number two, it never happened.”

Let us go then, you and I, / When the evening is spread out against the sky / Like a patient etherised upon a table.

We couldn’t have written it better, Thomas, “muttering retreats” and all. Now, about Epstein …

Trump has been married 3 times, and he openly cheated on all three of his wives. He paid Stormy Daniels and a Playboy Bunny to stay quiet about his love affairs with them, while he sat with Bill Clinton’s accusers prior to one of the debates against Hillary Clinton. He even said he likes to grab women by their [meow].

But according to Dan Valenti, the many women accusers are off base. To me, Donald Trump ranks right up their with Bill Clinton! Moreover, Trump is even worse than Bill Clinton because he is a total moral hypocrite!

As the facts come out in his “great guy” Epstein’s case, we’ll find out if Donnie has had sex with underage girls, won’t we.

Trump should observe the sage advice given to my son by my late father on prom night: “Keep your pecker in your pants!”

And Trump’s cheating on all three of his wives, paying off porn stars, and all the women who have accused him with cases still in the courts, yeh, they’re all liars. It would seem that all you Trumpites peaked in 8th grade, and your IQs still haven’t gone past double digits.

Thank you for acknowledging that I am a victim of Pittsfield politics Good Old Boy network. All these years later, not one hurtful person had the decency to apologize to me. But, what am I supposed to do about it other than complain. I no longer live in the Pittsfield area. My family relocated to Southern NH during the Fall of 2003. I followed them in the early-Spring of 2004.

I have followed Pittsfield politics on web-sites from my new home in NH. Basically, the same group of Good Old Boys have pulled the same crap on local people that they pulled on me and my family. The Good Old Boys rule by fear and intimidation. If someone wants to participate in their government, the Good Old Boys retaliates against them on many insidious levels.

Pittsfield has serious problems, including decades of population and job loss, a shrinking tax base, high taxes and public debts, 21 years of PEDA failures, and an underperforming public school system with over 650 students per academic choicing out to other school districts.

In closing, Pittsfield politics has not changed at all over the years since I moved away. In fact, things went from bad to worse!

Get over yourself, already.

I’ve felt the brunt of their ugly politics and recovered nicely.

At some point in your life, Jonathan, you need to take control of your psyche. If you can’t seem to – you might consider psychoanalysis or another form of psychological treatment. Try redirecting your thoughts into the here & now.

By your earlier admissions, you no longer live in Pittsfield?. Just a wild guess, but living life outside Pittsfield might be a healthy dose of coping with past trama!!

Also, try coming to terms with the fact that you permitted certain people to drive out; that could be the core of all your insecurities and ego bruising.

Butch up, please!!

And while you’re at it . . .

Seriously, get over it, already!!!

Nope, not even close. Trump is going to come out smelling like a rose on this.
He banned Epstein from Mar-a-Lago because he assaulted a girl there. The girl sadly didn’t press charges and eventually ended up being one of Epstein’s slave recruiters.

Trump didn’t like Epstein because he was another alpha dog.
Not once in the dozens of accusations from women has trump ever been accused of fooling around with minors.

Slick Willie and his witch should have been in prison many years ago.

The fact that the DNC fixed the 2016 primary is a disgrace. And the democrats are still saying Trump fixed the election.

Well election was fixed, by the DNC, Clinton, Wasserman. They then tried, and failed to smear Trump.

I don’t believe Trump is the best our nation has to offer, but much better than any Clinton, including little Cheesy.

Police sources indicate that there’s no way he could have disappeared that fast without help.
They have video evidence of him near a car. In looking further, the car seemed to have circled the lot several times and moved towards him and picked him up.

Did young chandler and guard have previous history?
Something doesn’t add up,rumor is sex offender story is high school girlfriends folks caught them. Pressed charges as he was 16& girl was 15. Took plea and it was prior to registration. Who was his lawyer?

Could of happened to 50% of population. For that he is stigmatized? Ruining a once aspiring athlete, if he had been a football player or hockey player at Williams college it would’ve been covered up.
I can kinda understand his frustration. If the facts are correct.

I agree that a prisoner so dangerous should have had 2 guards at least. Escape attempts usually happen when they are away from the prison. He even escaped in the past from police so had a history of doing this. Warning flags all over the place on this, but they were ignored.

Another frame up by district Attorneys office ?
Seems every case they bring has been dismissed due to Falsified evidence or perjured testimony

Ms Harrington needs to clean house and start fresh
The detectives came with office, and should have been replaced also.they covered up a lot of criminal activity, then frame innocent victims to intimidate, vilify and silence them.
My guess is Mr. Chandler has a story to tell.

Cops who drove drunk and beat up some guy in his driveway?
Investigation into the Mayor and Kerwood and a missing $2.1 million in funds.
Murder in Sheffield, DA Harrington said a final report was forthcoming prior to her jaunt to Europe?
Report about the murder in the apartments off dalton Ave?

Another story entirely missed by the Berkshire Eagle. They sent one of their “investigative reporters” off to parts unknown to interview cities with closed malls. They still haven’t figured out what the money game is. There’s a reason they are letting these malls go to waste and then dumping money into them via shell companies.

One secret to Epstein’s success might have been an insurance policy he took out just in case the privileged left ever considered revoking his membership in their justice-suspension club: videos. ZeroHedge reports that Epstein wired his mansion with hidden cameras and secretly recorded orgies involving high-profile friends with underage girls and that he’s saved these recordings for blackmail.”
Epstein kept a book of contacts of some of the most famous elites. Mixed in with the names of accomplices are famous actors, lawyers, and big politicians.
One of those names, Bill Clinton, took repeated (26) trips on Epstein’s private passenger jet, nicknamed by Virgin Island locals as the “Lolita Express” because it was known to ferry Epstein and his powerful friends to sexually exploit children on a 78-acre retreat. The U.S. Secret Service has resisted multiple Freedom of Information Act requests for records of Clinton receiving taxpayer-funded protection while on these jaunts.

Clinton yesterday issued a statement that he knew nothing of Jeffrey Epstein or his crimes. Sarnoff says he’s lying, as Epstein was one of the original financial architects of the Clinton Foundation and donated $4 million to it. She adds, why would Bill Clinton ever fly on a plane 27 times that did not belong to him?

Seems “the Ellen Rometsch Strategy.” As dubbed When Physical evidence was used to black mail Jerry ford to control Warren commission findings. Is still in practice today.

Later ms Lewinsky was smeared as a bimbo
Still got paid very well for services provided.
As she had the proof.

Trump by this time had probably been blackmailed 100 times.
Probably has a release he says prior to festivities.

Just another form of Prostitution if practiced between consenting adults. But pedophiles narcissist and sociopaths don’t get their power fix, of causing the abuse and control.

Which the Donald doesn’t seem to be searching for a power trip as much as a good time.

Where are all the lawn signs? Is there an election coming or not? Is Mazzeo hedging her bets?

Don’t matter I guess. We are screwed with either elitist woman mayoral candidate who will take care of the rich and famous at the expense of the less fortunate blue collar peon types.

Sure wish all those who have left Pittsfield in the last five years would chime in here and give their reasons why. also if they have any regrets.

I think the mayor is finding out that if you squander large sums of taxpayer money on special interest projects you may not have enough to do the important necessary things.

Does Clapp park really need to be reinvented every other year? Was it really wise to turn over Waconah park to special interests?
Did the Senior Center really need a new marquee? Did Tyler street really need a total do over while money was tight after building a new school and water treatment facilities? (while roads are falling apart)

And shouldn’t we be revisiting all the tax breaks being given to the millionaire business donor class? The greedy are killing it for regular people who are giving up basic needs to subsidize the wealthy in Pittsfield. (by the way has the mayor or any mayoral candidates released the list of business owners getting these lucrative tax breaks or is the mayor still keeping that info under tight security?)
