At times I am flabbergasted by events and by statements from people. It seems that every time lately, I unfortunately receive confirmation of thoughts of mine and I so wish this were not true. Every time I think that Trump et al have hit bottom, they just go on to even worse.
Remember back to when you were a kid and were jealous of the time your best buddy spent with others, but then hopefully you outgrew it? Well, it seems the Demented Toddler remains mired in the muck of his infantile emotions and guess who he is jealous of? He wants there to be a new Three Musketeers - Trump, Kim, and Xi and he is oh so hurt when the two others speak and play so nicely together, leaving him out in the cold. So sad..... so dangerous.
Or then we have the schoolyard taunts of "Oh, yeah? Well mine is bigger, better, stronger than yours"? Well, Demented Toddler over there in DC has a tad more dangerous weapons at his fingertips - literally - and listen to this statement from the Defense Department and then go hide somewhere, or cry and then join the fight to get our country back from the depths of hell it now finds itself.The Pentagon believes using nuclear weapons could “create conditions for decisive results and the restoration of strategic stability”, according to a new nuclear doctrine adopted by the US joint chiefs of staff last week. Do not know about you, but it scares the living daylights out of me. Add to the devilish mixture the eyes of newt that is Iran and dig that hideaway deeper!What is one to do when it seems the whole world has gone nuts and is not displaying any idea or feeling or understanding of what the hell they are doing and causing.
Perhaps then it is best that we now begin to openly acknowledge that oh yes, there is life out there. There has now been a closed door meeting with Senators about these unknown UFOs and I must confess, I do have a deep down wish tht one of them would fly to DC, sneak in with a skinny ray, and beam someone up to wherever the hell they live! Ah, wishful thinking, but then again, what would they think of earthlings then if this were to be an example of the human race? I shudder at the thought. But seriously, what really is out there? I think there is definitely something - but what and friendly or not? Perhaps a free weekend at the Washington Trump Hotel might soften them up and they will play nice with us. Maybe. Could be. (LOL)
And now the Toddler has moved on, tired of his threats meaning and doing nothing with Maduro, the only dictator he did not take to, so this issue is over with and I guess the people of Venezuela had just better get used to living in chaos, no medicines, no food, no order in the chaos and no hope. Oh well, c'est la vie according to the Demented Toddler.
We also must not forget the increasing turn to violence and overt fascism in the drive to imitate Hitler and all others who hate 'others'. To add pepper to the mixture, to add more tears to the immigrants now being chased from pillar to post, the target of ICE now appears to be families. That'll teach them! How dare they try to save their kids from slaughter, from being impressed like sailors of old into gangs, into a drugged life? How dare they hope to go together and build a life together, working, educating, building businesses, building America? Such an untenable wish. So thinks the Demented Toddler and his minions in ICE and guess they have found enough hard hearted and cruel people to fill the roles of enforcers, blind and cold to the tears, the screams, the children's fears, the hopelessness they bring.
By the way, should you happen to be wearing rose colored glasses, hoping that things will 'work out', let me bust those lenses for you. A judge has stated that oh yeah, there is a lot of political motivation and shenanigans with the census question re citizenship and not nice ones either. Why, phsaw, how could we actually believe that the Republicans had nefarious motives? How could we possibly think they wished to deprive so many of their rights? Silly us! Silly me!
And just to make sure that future issues of budget and personnel remain weighted for Trump, he now wants to close the Office of Personnel Management, the agency that investigates possible Federal appointees and workers and if Congress will not obey - OBEY! - his demands, why then he is simply going to fire 150 workers. So there! That will teach them! Nothing like a spot of good old fashioned blackmail and could care less attitude about others and this administration is so good at that!
This administration is covered with black goo, all the better to hide its criminal and amoral behavior. The Republican Party has roiled the grave of Lincoln, tossed Eisenhower's fears of the industrial/military complex right back at him as it regrows quite healthily. Denial of voting rights, freedom of the press, including demonization of the media, are just doing so well and aren't you so proud of yourself and the paths we have allowed that Demented Toddler to forge for us - right into the depths of hell.
So in closing, after seeing forecasts and statements and fears of mine coming true or well on their way to doing so, read this passage from a book and then think hard and tell me - are we not already there in great part and well on the way to completing it. I am scared from the top of my head to my tippy toes and so you should be too, no matter where you live or whom you support or even your country, for this garbage, this dangerous attitude, these horrific plans will affect one and all as the evil winds of it blow through the atmosphere and poison the very air we breathe. We are here or well on the way of getting there.
" ...human rights record been rated one of the world's worst: a repressive ruling elite maintained the forms of due process without a corresponding legitimacy. An unjust judicial system was deeply politicized, the organs of the state rife with corruption, the forces of law and order militarized. The state's enemies were reformists, intellectuals, students, teachers, lawyers, journalists, union leaders, women's rights groups, artists, filmmakers and musicians. The prison system was designed to stamp out any impetus for change."
So if we were to draw a line from start to finish in this description, how far along would we be and will we be under the thumb of the Demented Toddler who is plumping for an extended term and then Ruler for Life!! Think. Hard. Long. Deep. Honestly.
