Evidently we are back in Bizzaro land, where things are the opposite of what they are supposed to be. We appear to be in the midst of one of the lowest periods in our history, what with politicians definitely taking the low road, the high roaders are just about useless, and the people on the side are chiming in with their oh so lovely comments and contributions that seriously, wish they would keep to themselves.
The hypocrisy is overwhelming. Trump curses out the media on almost an hourly schedule, but takes to calling them early mornings or late evenings when his coverage is not the way he wishes it to be. There is only so much a network will cover when it is the same hate filled garbage spewed out of the mouth of an orange person who knows only viciousness. How much will a network cover before even its own news people rebel, especially when the coverage is so demeaning and insulting, hate filled, towards women, towards minorities, towards anyone who is not actually in that man's camp! And then we are supposed to believe what he says about a journalist who has been disappeared by the Saudis! I think not.
The latest? Evidently we are not allowed to criticize Melania for evidently she is "our" FLOTUS and thus beyond criticism or negative comment. Any negativity towards her is reckoned disrespectful and on the level of the seven deadly sins according to Sarah Sanders! Sanders is nuts; we all know that. How she swallows the crap she then spits out as a spokesperson for the Trump administration is mind boggling. And that she thinks that Melania is some kind of goddess because she married that sleaze? Puh-lease!!
As for Melania, that dummy's model, who has decided now to 'speak out' but not really, and when she tries to do so speaks out of both sides of her mouth, trying to hit some invisible middle that she thinks will make her a classy dame? That and her 5 inch heels? Sexual assault is just that and for her to go back to medieval times or to the backwards lands of the present world and blame the victim or demand more 'evidence' is just too much. Perhaps next time one is raped, just pull out the phone and take pictures, take notes and perhaps that will be the proper evidence these characters need! Evidently a woman's voice alone or standing or sitting in front of a nation is not enough and then she is open to Trump's nastiness and filthy mouth and lowbrow speech.
And hey, do not forget the tax non paying schemes of these uber wealthy people that Trump and camp contain. Do not pay taxes is their motto and even if one does, make it a tiny percentage of what is truly owed and then sponsor a tax cut to make it even less. After all, they have expenses too for fancy cars must be replaced and mansions built and ridiculously priced clothing bought. As for the 'workers' that Trump has been hoodwinking into believing that he cares for them - wake up! C'mon! How do you believe this crap from him? Is it that the hate appeals to you? But hatred spews forward, backwards and sideways and leaves no one untouched. That means you!
So for how much longer do we need to play at this low minded campaigning and awful politics? How much longer must we tolerate a man and his weak kneed followers who have sold their souls to this devil, who have turned their backs on the people of this country, who have allowed a minority vote to run the country over the wishes of the majority? How much longer can we have faith in our system when the man at the head apparently has learned to be a good patriot - for the Russians, and turns on his fellow Americans? Hw much longer can we stand aside and watch our country be riven in two - or even more - pieces?
How much longer can we tolerate over 13,000 children incarcerated - yes, incarcerated, because that is what their detention truly is - because they tried to immigrate to a country which is supposed to welcome the "tempest tossed".
Where are our hearts? Our souls? Our minds? Our thoughts? Our pride? Our Americanness, if there is such a word? C'mon! Really and truly - what the hell are we doing.
For now, before the world literally goes to pieces because Trump et al says there is no climate change, no environmental consequences, just take a moment or two to think and then, in the right frame of mind - VOTE!! VOTE!! VOTE!!
