BEWARE: QUICKSAND AHEAD!

          
          So here is a question that I am more and more puzzled as to the answer. Is the man demented, deranged or is he cunning beyond words as he uses the government of the United States to increase the bottom line of his extended family? Methinks he is all these things, demented and deranged, detached from the tethers of reality in many ways, yet has the cunning often found in people developing dementia, able to perform in many ways, yet often with a tinge of meanness or cunning, having learned to hide the deficiencies with cunning in other areas.
     Dementia often comes with cruelty, meant or not. I believe that the nastiness of this man, his innate character deficiencies, have simply come to the fore as he cannot hide them anymore, having lost most of his 'brakes', and as he indulges his traits of misogyny, racism, bias, and sheer lack of any moral fiber at all.
     His behavior is worse and worse, and worst of all is the fact that with his every step deeper and deeper into his obsessive swamp, he is dragging us right along, deeper and deeper as we sink into the quagmire, begin to drown in the quicksand. Just take a look at the NY Times editorial from 2 days ago and see all the 'niceties' of his life, his rude and crude behavior, his insults, his cruelty, his sheer indifference to the needs and rights of others.
     For weeks now I have been shouting about the 'losing' of 1,500 children and don't you just love the excuses of HHS as they stumble over themselves trying to get out of the quicksand of their own making. Personally, I could care less about how many, if any, go down in this muck, but I am concerned, severely concerned over the missing children. So Ivanka shares a moment with her little boy - in that same moment how many immigrant children are being "lost"? How many are being abused? How many have been sold into the hands of traffikers? How many will never see their parents again, never even know who they really are as the government - OUR - government ripped them away from them in a crazed detachment to natural human bonds in a depraved mania re immigration.
     It is not their fault they say. They are not responsible for these kids after 30 days. Even merchandise can be returned after 30 days, but I guess immigrant children are not as valuable!!Don't you think it is special that we have given ourselves a clean blanket with which to cover our eyes and declare innocence?! Are these children and their parents untermensch, less than worthy of being called a human being? Are they lower than the proverbial animals as one does not even separate newborn creatures from their mothers. Why have we allowed ourselves to become the Nazis of today?
     And our confused and confusing foreign policies- not so confusing when one looks at the events within the sphere of them. So ZTE is going down. No, it is not. Yes, it is. Nope, and voila!!! It is final - they will be saved. This huge and dangerous to our security Chinese company will now be saved by Trump himself and why? What was the motivating factor? During this whole time Ivanka has been piling up Chinese trademarks for her business!!!!!This whole damn family of Trumps has used our country, our government, to improve their bottom line. They have refused to separate themselves from their businesses and have merrily gone down this convoluted and corrupt road.
     The cherry on top? Simple. We are being pressured into approving our own Berlin Wall. Remember when the Wall went up, the hurried and sudden runs through the shrinking openings, the daring escape attempts, more and more clever and desperate, and  its moral ugliness? Remember the excitement as people spontaneously began to tear it apart, brick by brick, piece after piece and the joy in the world as this happened? So why are we going to build another one, an even uglier one in many ways? Why are we going to satisfy the deranged and dangerous demands of a crazy and hateful man who cannot even speak on Memorial Day without praising himself? 
     So for how long will we allow the quicksand to grow? Will we say nothing as the writers of the awful new tax law which are understood by no one, flood into the lobbyist firms in new jobs, supposedly a process which was to have been stopped!
     I am sick of this man and his minions. I am sick of the moral degeneracy that he has pushed into the mainstream. I am tired of his opaqueness, his lies, his selfishness, his nastiness, sick of the whole kit and caboodle of the Trumps and their minions. Please, get out there and vote in the primaries, in the elections in November and stop this deranged family in their tracks. And let the truth come out about their activities and their collusions with any and all who further their own needs. Not so difficult to see the collusion with Russia for if that would help to win, why the hell not is their attitude.
     Impeachment? Maybe. If we can get the both Houses of Congress back into the fold, instill a vaccine of moral courage into the wimpy Republicans who seem to be on leading strings from the White House, clean the swamp of Trump appointees and rehire the ranks who bailed out because of him, get the government running again as the Constitution planned. Make sure Pence would be hobbled from carrying on with his own cruel and biased and bigoted plans and pray for the quick arrival of 2020 when we can permanently dig out from the quicksand!
