DISGUST

      What do you feel when you read the news or watch or hear it? Nowadays I feel a huge sense of disgust, a feeling of ICH!!! A wondering of what the hell is the matter with everyone? It is not even the pot calling the kettle black anymore, for there is almost no distinction between truth and lies, on Trump's side. Anyone wishing to face the truth about him, admit they were wrong, along with those who knew it from the getgo, feel slimed, disgusted, and have voiced opinions about this president and his presidency such that I never have heard before. Strangers washing hands in a washroom, waiting on line, wherever, all feel a comradery and freedom to state strong feelings and solutions. It is both shocking and extremely disturbing as one realizes the depth to which this country has fallen. We must all join together.
     But why be shocked? This, the man whose picture is next to pervert in the dictionary, this man who does a hell of a lot more than touch women, this man who is so tarred with his own actions, dares to poke fun at Biden!? Biden is a man of the old school, of the touchy feely pol who would hug all at rallies, in talks, and basically meant nothing sexual about it, even as the touchee might have felt uncomfortable. He has acknowledged this; has Trump confessed his deeds? Has he apologized? Yet this filthy man talks of others on this topic. This, the same man who nominated a sexual pervert for Supreme Court where he now sits alongside the original pervert, Thomas. ICH!!!
     It is  a huge feeling of ICH! when he talks of a "humanitarian" crisis at the border. This is the one who kills his parents and then pleads for sympathy as an orphan in court! Trump has created this crisis. Levels at the borders were down. No one was ripped apart a la fascist tendencies to do so. No one was thrown into underpass concentration camps. No one was held without food, water, warmth, and due process. But now? Now this administration has slowed the process to less than a crawl. Then they arrest the migrants who turn themselves in asking for asylum -  a violation of the rule of asylum! And the internees mount so Trump then calls it a crisis. The man is …… better not use that language!
     As far as I am concerned, as with so many others, he has lied and cheated his way into office. No one could have ignored the Russians all around, tripping over one or another, so plentiful were they on the ground. Junior reeks and drips of the same slime and now he is apparently the go to guy for the 2020 campaign! OMG! Poor Jared is in a head to head battle for power with him, locking horns and would that they gore themselves to uselessness in their damaging plans.
     Tax returns, an Attorney General who appears to have been handpicked for his opinion on executive privilege and who then tailors his pathetically insufficient summary to fit his opinion. A president who first gasps with surprise that he seemed to have gotten away scottfree, but who then realizes that nope, the fat lady has not sung yet. The truth will out. Again. The truth will out. Precedent is on the side of the truth here and it will happen; I just hope that the country survives as this man and his minions rip through our rights, our protection of our country, and hey, maybe we can set him next to a windmill where he can make all his weird noises to his satisfaction and we can all see if he develops 'cancer' from the windmill a la his own 'medical' theory.
     For those of you wondering why I do not capitalize president or presidency, here is why. I do not hold this man as a legitimate president. The election where he won by a fluke of the Electoral College, and lost the popular vote, the machinations by foreigners in our internal elections, his bizarre behavior, his lies - he is not my president, hence no capitals for him.
     I cringe at his lies. I cringe at the manic and condoned behavior of ICE and the Border Patrol as they chase down immigrants in high speed chases, treat them abominably, real concentration guards well into their training. They arrest close to 300 immigrants in a mass raid, many single parents, leaving children alone, in a place of work where they contribute to our economy, raising new Americans. All the while the employers are pleading for the allowing of immigrants as they are desperate for workers. All this as the manic behavior of our government - OUR representatives - continues. It is a sick joke and just look at all those who now feel capable of  running for this office, the highest in the land. And why not, for if this dangerous man can be in that office, then why not them? At least they are sane. At least they hopefully realize the value of speaking the truth. At least they will not cooperate with foreign enemy countries!
     I have been slimed. We all have been slimed. We all are neck deep in this pool of ICH! We need to get out of here. We need to press for transparency, freeing up the entire report, the complete tax returns, the ditching of the dangerous idea that the President is above the law, can be a criminal because he cannot be prosecuted. This is wrong, so wrong, and so is the idea that this man and his family have to create their own dynasty right here in America, holding themselves above the law, reestablishing a long foregone political truth that there are no more absolute monarchs. They wish to reestablish that in fact, if not in name. ICH!!!
     To those who knew him for what he was and always will be, but looked aside, for those who have realized the truth, for those who think that hate is the way to go, forgetting that hatred is a poison that spreads through society, leaving no one immune, to those who understand the desperate situation we are in - come back to the true home of the country and let us all be the UNITED States of America once more. Do not let us all drown in the filthy muck of ICH!!
