You can’t make this stuff up.
A venomous, 67 minute tirade in Phoenix that has even top Republicans questioning his sanity.
A prime-time address on Afghanistan that says nothing and is really an attempt to divert attention away from Charlottesville and Russia.
An administration finally forced to ballast Steve Bannon, only after triggering widespread disbelief over the President’s comments about racism and hate.
A White House that has shown an ignorance and ineptness unheard of before in America.
Like so many Americans recovering from the hangover of a President whose beliefs are as shocking as they are ignorant, I find it unfathomable he can stand and defend the cabal of abhorrent white extremists who brought weaponry and hate to a city for the soul purpose of inciting violence and spewing a reprehensible message.
What is even more unfathomable are the Republican leaders who continue to stand silently by as a president mocks and discards the very values upon which our nation is based. And many in the religious community, as well, continue to stand with him, as if the brain-washing of political intellect is complete. The Republican “leadership” in Congress does nothing. Their legacy will be shame, left by Senator Mitch McConnell , House Speaker Paul Ryan and others of the Republican party, should they continue to fiddle while our Rome burns. The Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s words have never cried so clearly: “In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends.”
The President is also a pathological liar, who lies on a Daily basis. Most everything from his mouth and his aides is designed to deceive, deflect, deny and distract from the alternative facts he tells himself and the rest of us. He does not even care that most of us know this, because he knows his ignorant, deplorable base still cling to his every Orwellian word. Yes, our biggest enemy is the mass ignorance swallowed as snake oil from a small-minded huckster with an even smaller vocabulary. That Donald Trump currently occupies the White House stands as the biggest collective blunder our nation has ever owned. Such a stain so many relish as he spews bluster and lies to hide the truth and facts when they don’t serve his interests. Truth becomes fake news only because he tells his followers and everyone lies. To quote Jack Nicholson from ‘A Few Good Men’, he cannot handle the truth.
He is despicable and his Presidency a disgrace and it is time to end it for the benefit of us all. Before he starts another World War with his 5th-grade blundering. Our nation is too precious to allow a spoiled and average intellect call the shots.
He courts and encourages by his words and actions the worst elements of hate in our nation. He is completely devoid of the “Emotional Intelligence” so necessary for any capable leader. His vocabulary is high school level at best, the product of a life lived as a privileged teen who five times engineered an excuse not to serve the country he now presides over. President Obama was the first African American chosen by his mostly white peers to serve as the Editor of the Harvard Review. Donald Trump’s family paid others to do his college work for him. After all the honest concern that the one-percent controlled too much American wealth, He riled up the most ignorant among us make sure that 1% can lock away the inequality forever.
The man who vowed to drain a swamp has filled it with snakes and enlarged it, kicking a few out along the way like a Bannon as he train-wrecks his way through the government which is now a circus of his own creation, a circus in which the ringleader clown cannot run. His government, our government, is now the circus, for a barking huckster who tweets nonsense while even his wife, family, aides and accomplices look away, muttering in disgust. The most vile and unqualified person ever sent to the White House, slowly killing our nation with his ineptness, turmoil, and yes, hate. This person who holds the title of President has pulled out and courted the worst of us and from us, for he simply knows no other way. He has divided us to a whole new level, not since the Civil War.
The vast majority of Americans were reviled when they saw video of white supremacists marching with torches at night across the University of Virginia campus chanting hate. But not Donald J. Trump, elected with the help of America’s most-dangerous enemy, Russia, and an ignorant subset of Americans with a collective, average intellect easily exceeded by most high school graduates. A populace so disenchanted by their own sorry lives they are so easily charmed by a Wall Street bigot who cares nothing about them.
We have such a President because nearly half of us, 48%, did not bother to vote. A quarter of us, 25.6% voted for Hillary Clinton, slightly fewer, 25.5%, voted for Trump. Note that the very reason the Electoral College was created was to protect us from such a candidate and election and failed us miserably. As a result, about 62 million Americans out of 320 million, about one-fifth of us, gave a despicable man the keys to the White House.
Our only solace, is the reality now closing in on him and his, because of people just like you who won’t stand for such impotence, greed, incompetence and, yes, evil. It is clearly now up to us, to take those keys away, and disregard all the noise from the deplorables who support him and the lemmings who blindly protect him.
It’s all about November of 2018 now. Turn up the volume.
