There’s an old line (altered a bit): Putting tRump’s intellect on the edge of a razor blade is akin to rolling a BB down the middle of the 405 through the Sepulveda Pass. He’s a man whose only proven aptitude is for lying and he’s very bad at that. If it wasn’t for Fox Propaganda’s Goebbelian support and Zuckerberg’s criminal lack of vigilance for the incursions of Putin, he would never have squeaked into the White House.
But, he did. So, we have a dotard with a severe case of brain envy prancing around like a goon cast perfectly to type as the dumbest guy in the room. This is a clown who would lose at tic-tak-toe if you spotted him three free moves. It’s not that his ideas are just incoherent; they are also incontinent. They dribble out in spurts of idiocy and insanity, interspersed with streams of pure filth, fountains of self-promotion and tiny drips of inadvertent admissions of guilt.
We’ve got a cartoon villain, Dishonest Don, squatting on our country’s throat. To call him illegitimate is to diminish bastards the world over.
The only reason he’s able to make such a gargantuan public ass of himself is because of the full-throated support of the entire corrupt hierarchy of the republican party. The RNC, Fox Noise, (R)Congresspersons, (R)Senators, tRump appointees, K-Street flunkies, think-tank toadies, dark money donors, hate radio and Christian con artists have teamed up to prop up a man manifestly unfit to do anything except lie enough to own the entire Guinness category devoted to lying.
He is a shitty president, a shitty husband, a shitty business person, a shitty deal-maker and an all-around shitty human being. His only potential positive use is as fertilizer.
Tomorrow the spineless republicans in the Senate are going to acquit him of crimes they all know he committed because they are craven spineless cowards, unwilling to stand up for our country.
This is not a reason to get depressed, crawl under out beds and give up. It is a reason to get pissed. Really pissed. Pissed enough to make sure they all pay for their betrayal of the United States of America. It’s time for us to gather together and work toward our Victory Over The Enablers Terrorizing Honest Elections Misrepresenting Our Union’s Tenets.
