TRUTH AND CONSEQUENCES

     Computer a bit cranky today so please excuse any errors or omissions. So, to the speech and its aftermath. At least he maintained sentence structure, albeit short and choppy, with a distinct lack of elegance or phrase for eternity. What there was did send me into a frisson of fear for the echoes of the 1930's came thru loud and clear. One heart, one country, one people and underneath it all, combined with his outthrust and upraised fist was the echo of ein volk, ein reich, ein Fuhrer.
     The phrase G-d's people sent another chill racing thru me. Who are G-d's people? His family? His minions? The Americans who believe that he is reincarnated via G-d's favor? Those who say they are G-d's people frighten me with their hypocrisy and false pride. They frighten me with their arrogance and their legends of themselves mainly in their own minds and they frighten me with their lack of empathy, honesty, ethics and love of mankind. Self aggrandizement is the word of the day, all led by their Leader Trump. And I use capitals intentionally.
     Echoes in my head. Wrong. Wrong. Amazing . Good genes. Only I can do it. And lie after lie after lie. This man is dangerous.
     Look at what has happened since. He has said he has a health plan and all will have coverage. He will help all people with this - how, with no plan and with no coverage at all? Sure, they will die without care and so all their problems will be gone. Great planning for after all, then we will not need so many social programs if we cull the population!!
     As for the "depleted" military - can someone please explain. It makes no sense any which way for one cannot deplete a military force and their budget has gone up so again please? As for taxes - what taxes? The man lies again. He has the blond bimbo lie for him and say no tax returns for no one cares, they voted for him anyway. But now there are already over 200,000 signatures on a petition to release them and he, why he is just ignoring it, our new Fuhrer. Correct me if I am wrong but did not the man promise to reveal them after election? Liar, liar. Another world class lie as he stood there looking at a video of himself poking fun, deriding a handicapped journalist, looking at it and then oh no he did  not do that. So who was that? His poltergeist?
     His ego wounded, he cannot accept that there are people, most of the country in fact, who cannot stand him nor abide his lies. They will call him out on everything he does and says. Too bad but the truth is the truth. The CIA was insulted before his speech to them and he continued at the CIA memorial wall. In fact, he turned the speech to his favorite topic - himself! He exaggerates his pitiful numbers of inauguration and then is totally pissed off that the march bettered him by far. He does not like criticism and then blamed the media again for this and promised to fix them but good. C'mon. I thought this was over when kids finish middle school but evidently he never did for he cannot spell either. And by the way, he referred to the fact that people think there is something wrong with his brain; I do for sure. I think he is totally unsuitable for this job and should go back to amusing himself in his crass and declasse gilt edged apartment in his monument to himself and leave us and the world alone.
     What is even worse is that he is destroying any and all alliances we have as he sets up new ones and a mutual admiration society with Putin and even Erdogan, dictators and demagogues both! Worse yet - he is encouraging every pitiful and pathetic and poisonous hater and racist to come out of the woodwork all over the world. Those same benighted fools who voted for him are now showing concern as to his actions and their consequences.
     What further amazes me is that usually intelligent people, including friends of mine, will rant and rave in his defense. Nope, he did not lie and nope he is not a racist, and nope he is not ethically challenged, and nope, he has not cheated the American people with his non payment of taxes and nope, he has not deserted the American people, the very ones he promised to protect, with his non healthcare program and with the appointment of unsuitable Fat Cats to positions of power in his cabinet.
     And this is just the beginning. But we are beginning too and I suggest that every reader of this blog who is just as disgusted and frightened by this man and his henchmen follow up on the enthusiasm and achievement and statement of the march and become active. Join a political party. Join a PAC. Join anything and be there to march, to carry a flag or a poster and a hand to clap with when he is impeached and after him, Pence.
   This is just the beginning.
