A PLAIN OLD THUG!!

    So, at the bottom of it all, dementia notwithstanding, the explanation is simple. The man is, always has been, and always will be, a thug. A plain old fashioned thug of filthy mouth, no morals, and a box full of threats, with seemingly enough power to intimidate all those who cluster around a chief thug. Even simpler? Move over, Mafia. Move over, the Russian mob, the Albanian mob, MS-13, and all other gangs, for the grand behemoth of all is upon us. Its leader has the power of a nation and its weaponry behind it, and said leader is functioning with a damaged brain. Woe upon us. Woe upon the world. And shame upon us that we have allowed, after all these years, a reincarnation in a bigger sphere of the ghost of Boss Tweed, now not a NYC gangster, but a national and international one.
     We have allowed intimidation not by a brilliant man, but by a loser, a loser in finance, a loser in personal relationships, a loser in any contest of morals and morality, a loser in every sense of every kind of decency and humanity. He is the thug who has risen to the top by 'killing' off his rivals, by frightening them somehow, and now he controls them all, to the point that they abandon all their morality and kowtow to his every wish and demand. It is so open a fact, so open a behavioral pattern, yet it seems to have been missed by all.  Worse, accepted by all who would follow him blindly, a la every Capo di Tutti capi, every mad, murderous dictator, from the depths of history through the ages, through the times of Stalin, Berra, Hitler, every Third World banana republic leader, right down to that man in the White House.
     All the while he sits there in his residence, in his PJ's, cursing at the world which would oppose him, cut him down, limit his power, in fact, remove him from it altogether. He is the chief Capo who is fighting against those who would cause his downfall, those who respect the law rather than fear the thug!
    "Take her out!" "Get rid of her!" His own words. The words of a power crazed thug, a criminal in every sense of the word, a low down creep who knows no other way than to frighten and intimidate, to lie, cheat and steal. Do not pay contractors, or workers, or at least pay even a dubious honor of truth. Poke fun of servicemen suffering from PTSD. Oh, for sure, bone spurs of a foggy origin, for sure outweigh those whose brains have been scrambled by wounds of TBI category. For sure, make fun, make less of those who serve and are wounded, even as you stand behind a bulletproof sheet of glass - and that is at your own pathetic rallies, with the befuddled, the fooled, the brainwashed. The intimidated.
     What is the most shocking, perhaps, is how the entire Republican Party, other than a few outliers, have fallen into place, rigidly in line, ignoring every caution, discarding their own futures, their own honor and rights, as they hear the evidence, even acknowledge its power and truth, refuse to hear any more, turn up their noses at recordings which so powerfully reveal the thug in the man, and their own, what, thuggery?! They perjure themselves, fall before him as the toads they are.
      They refuse to see that the man is a fascist of the first order, and like any other power hungry and power mad criminal, is pushing his way for all to acknowledge that he is indeed above the law and can rule unimpeded. Goodbye democracy. Goodbye USA. Hello the latest of all mammoth dictators, of glorified thugs. Hello a future which will be worse than ever thought possible, the limited future as all regulatory rules are tossed out, and the chemicals, the poisons can flow again, the fatcats keep getting more and more money and power. As for the rest of us, well, go read about the lives of peasants and people caught up in a repressive system. It ain't pretty!
     The shame of the GOP, the shame of the lawyers who support his perversions, his lies, his criminality, his treasonous behavior, his high crimes and misdemeanors, who ignore their own words of the past, who have sold their souls and their honor for what? For what!!
     Why is Sanders gaining in percentage? Simple. He is the complete opposite of Trump the thug. Simple. Of course, what we need is a moderate, a person who can work with others. Who already has shown that ability. Klobuchar is the one by far and finally, her percentage is edging up, closer to a double digit number. I just hope that we have not left this all too late, ceded the turf of the citizens of America, the legacy of the Founders and Framers to a thug and his gang.
      That is what they are. Underneath all their pomp, their lies, their haughtiness, their disgusting behavior, their cowardice, their lack of morality, that is what they are. All thugs. Plain and simple. Worried that their leader is going to put their heads on a pike!!! For G-d's sake! Have we retreated to the Middle Ages when this was done? I put nothing too out there for this thug in chief.
     Over the past four to five years I have railed against this man, seeing his nakedness rather than invisible clothing. All that I have warned about has come true. Analysts, statesmen and women, reporters have come around to the same conclusions, used and using the same terms and words that I do. I am a nobody in terms of the world at large, yet I am apparently not alone in the recognition of the truth of it all and its omnipresent danger. 
     We have allowed our country to be taken over by a thug, by a supergang, by a perverted and demented leader who has suborned others to follow his lead, to be so frightened of him that they have forgotten their humanity, all that is right and followed, instead, all that is wrong. They ignore warnings from the Washington Post, from prominent thinkers and papers, all media, about their errors and misdeeds coming back to haunt them, to bite them inthe ass, and how I wish to see that, to be there, to see the figurative blood of the offenders as they fall in elections, as they are prosecuted for their misdeeds and crimes and are imprisoned, right next to their thug in chief, Capo Trump!! So low have we fallen.
