A House Divided

That America has become a house divided is so obvious it hardly needs stating. That Don Trump has played a major role in cultivating and growing that division should also be obvious to minds able to rise above the contamination that is rampant in America. With Joe Biden having now bowed to the inevitable, it is past time for everyone to see the bilge Trump spews for what it is - hate mongering, intolerance, overt prejudice, resentment - name a negative sentiment and you will see Trump fanning the flames. 

The cult of personality is never a pretty thing, but the one propagated by Trump is especially repugnant to anyone who can see past their own pettiness and grievances. The injuries he does to the spirit are profound and deep; his country must now reckon with that fact before November if it is to have any chance at continuing as a democracy. 

Another wakeup call emerged with the announcement of Biden's decision to step down from the re-election race. While he was lauded almost worldwide for the contributions he made during his ong political career, there was one notable exception. 

This is what Trump wrote on his Truth Social account:

Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve - And never was! He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement. All those around him, including his Doctor and the Media, knew that he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t - And now, look what he’s done to our Country, with millions of people coming across our Border, totally unchecked and unvetted, many from prisons, mental institutions, and record numbers of terrorists. We will suffer greatly because of his presidency, but we will remedy the damage he has done very quickly. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

If people cannot or will not see the absolute absence of grace in the above statement, if they cannot see that this is Trump showing his most unclean and utterly debased face, then yes, he is definitely their man in November, and if they prevail, America and its people are lost causes.

I Am At A Loss For Words

 Some days, I truly despair, and words fail me.

“He’s definitely been chosen by God,” said Marie Zere, a commercial real estate broker from Long Island who attended the Conservative Political Action Conference in February outside Washington, D.C. “He’s still surviving even though all these people are coming after him, and I don’t know how else to explain that other than divine intervention.”

And if that's not enough, consider this from Graeme MacKay:

John Kelly Reveals All

In addition to the blatant corruption of the Ford cabal, my other ongoing obsession is with all that Donald Trump represents for a rapidly-declining Amerika.

Here, John Kelly, his former chief of staff, confirms things we already know about the morally-diseased wannabe dictator who, by the way, recently opined that shoplifters should be shot.

Were it not for the global influence of Amerika, I would happily sit by as it destroys itself. But that's not the way things work, eh?

What Else Can You Do?

 Because of the absurdity of the world today, sometimes all one can do is go along for the ride but season it with some sarcasm, some satire, some absurdity. Here is a clip that captures it all, in my humble view.

If Only The Truth Could Set Them Free

 But judging by Donald Trump's approval ratings, it does no such thing:

This is how you beat Donald Trump: 1. Destroy his brand. 2. Expose his lifetime of lies and failures 3. Humiliate him as the absolute loser that he is day after day after day after day.

It is ugly, and it is real.

Especially chilling are the hand gestures of the faithful             

I do hope PP doesn't see this.
