IS THE KEY TO BLACK EQUALITY

DONALD
TRUMP:
.
Donald Trump announced that he wouldn't be
paying respect to Rep. John Lewis who is currently lying in state in the capitol. But that could have been predicted,
just like his taking down White House portraits of former Presidents who don't support him could have been predicted. President Ronald Reagan's portrait will probably come down next, since the Reagan Foundation contacted the Trump campaign and asked them to stop using Reagan's name and image in their fund-raising efforts.
.
You see, Donald Trump has the petty mentality of an 8-year-old child. So he'll do - or NOT do - anything he thinks will get the
attention, and/or irritate, the people who don't support him. He's vindictive, and literally, a geriatric
child. For him, everything is about payback and getting even. If you don't join him in raving over how wonderful he is, you're the enemy, and he'll eventually get even for your lack of support. Trump has been given everything throughout his entire life. He's never had to earn anything. So he thinks the world "owes" him it's undying loyalty.
.
But that's quite alright by me, because it
allows me to read him. Trump has a stupid propensity to telegraph his every thought and feeling, so just observing his behavior is the next best thing to being
able to read his mind. A perfect example of that principle at work is how he
just wished accused child molester Ghislaine Maxwell well. Based on the way he
treats more accomplished women, that speaks volumes. It tells me that Maxwell
probably has something on him, and based on a 2016 court filing that's almost
certainly the case:
Rape Allegations Refiled Against
Trump
"MANHATTAN (CN) – A woman who
says Donald Trump raped her at a private sex party when she was 13 years old
refiled a lawsuit against him Friday, two weeks after voluntarily dismissing a
suit based on the same claims.
"The new
complaint, filed in the federal court in Manhattan, restates plaintiff Jane
Doe’s claims of the earlier lawsuit. Namely, that she was lured by a recruiter
to summer parties hosted by co-defendant Jeffrey Epstein at an Upper East Side
mansion on East 71st St., tied to a bed and forcibly raped by Trump, who
slapped her with an open hand and told her he would do whatever he pleased with
her.
"Jane Does goes
on to claim that after Epstein also forcibly raped her, he and Trump bickered
over who should have taken the minor plaintiff’s virginity."
So Trump's pettiness brings me comfort, because it
assures me that he's not feeling a second's worth of relief over the pain of being a
miserable outcast. It gives me the comforting assurance of knowing how horrible
it must be to be Donald Trump, and it couldn't happen to a more deserving person. Just imagine having to go through life knowing
that you're so despicable that your own wife probably hates your guts, and your children may only be putting up with you for monetary reward. That’s what Donnie’s got to live
with. And he also has to live with the fact that no matter how much he postures, the entire world looks
upon him as a disgusting loser - and a dumb one with no class, at that. That's karma working at its very best.
Trump is literally dying inside, because
what he’s wanted more than anything else all his life has always been just beyond
his grasp - the admiration and respect of others. He's always had money, but he's never had the respect of others - and after all, that's primarily why we want money in the first place, in order to get the admiration and respect of the people around us. While a person can buy a 30-room mansion, they can only live in one room at a time, and while they might be able to buy an expensive Rolls Royce, it can't take them anywhere that they can't get to in a Volkswagen Beetle. So the primary reason we want money is to impress others. We want money so people will say, "Look at that big house and expensive car! He must be special." But Donald Trump's money is not doing that for him. Instead, people are saying, "How long can an idiot like this continue to get way with this fraud!!!?" So all of Donald's money is not doing him a bit of good - and worse, truly self-made billionaires look down on him as a joke. They see him for what he is, and he doesn't fit into their club.
Ordinarily I would feel sorry for a person like Trump, but in his case I went out and bought a case of popcorn to watch him suffer, because there's a reason for it, and he richly deserves all the pain he's suffering. The bottom line is, if you don't deal with poverty properly it can stunt your growth. The same is truth of wealth. Some people deal with wealth well, and live long and happy lives, but Trump has used his wealth to step on others and try to squeak through life without having to pay any dues. Now he's paying the price.
.
Donnie’s father, Fred, paved the way
for him all of his life. As a result, unlike most of us, Donnie didn’t have to develop the intellect and character to get by in the world. Everything was bought and
paid for on his behalf. According to his niece, Mary Trump, author of the tell-all book, Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created The Most Dangerous Man In The World", instead of studying for the
SAT to earn his way into college, for example, Donnie simply paid someone else to take the test for him, and instead of
developing the character to make and develop friendships, he simply used his money to buy superficial friendships. As a result, he’s left today with an underdeveloped intellect, and he lacks the character to be a good person and loyal friend. Thus, all he is today is an empty shell of a man completely motivated
by the need get whatever it is he wants through hook or crook, and to hide his
many flaws and weaknesses at any and all costs - and often, at the expense of others.
.
That’s why he’s such a profuse liar. He
has such a flawed and weak personality that he has to bend reality to
accommodate all of his shortcomings to maintain his self-esteem. Donald Trump is
much like Mr. Wizard, a little midget of a man hiding behind a huge fake image. His entire
persona is fake. That’s why he's so enamored with the word – everything he doesn't like is “fake”, according to Trump. That’s because he uses himself as a standard by which to judge the rest of the world, and he's a fake human being.
.
BECOMING PRESIDENT
When Hillary lost the 2016 election and
Donnie found himself standing in the wings, he didn’t know what to do with
himself, because, yet again, he hadn't earned what had been dropped in his lap.
He didn't win the presidency, Hillary lost it, and Putin saw to it that Trump
got it - and Putin had a good reason for wanting Trump to win; he had two reasons,
actually. First, he had Trump in his pocket; and secondly, because Trump is so flawed as n individual, his success
became a liability for America and a win for Russia. And just as Putin had anticipated,
Trump was completely unprepared to be President, or anything else other than an incompetent blowhard. So on the one hand, while his
dream of finally getting the recognition and respect that he's always sought
had finally come true, on the other, now he'd have to actually perform. But in
his arrogance, and his inability to think beyond the moment he's living in, he
thought, "Now I’ll show em!".
What Donnie failed to recognize was, becoming president was the worst thing
that could have ever happened to him, because now he could no longer posture
and contort reality to make himself look good, and being President would bring
the kind of scrutiny into his abilities that he's never had to deal with
before. So now he would have to actually perform and demonstrate his competence, instead of just brag bout it. That was an immediate problem for a man who'd gone bankrupt 6 (SIX!) times, had
been propped up by his father’s wealth all his life, and had failed at
everything he'd ever attempted other than selling his father's name. In
addition, it would also bring along with it a close examination of his level of competence
and his personal life..
Any other man, who had even a smidgeon of intelligence, could have worked
around that. He would simply surround himself with the nation's most brilliant
minds to help him run the government. But due to Trump’s flawed character, that
was out of the question. First, he’s so insecure that having people around him
who could actually think was a direct threat to the image he’d spent his life
trying to forge, since it would be far too easy for them to figure out that he
was an idiot and a fraud. And secondly, he resented having to share the
spotlight with anyone else. As a result, he’s built an administration made up
of fellow idiots and some of the biggest frauds in the country. That’s why his
administration is a revolving door. After
all, any person who could be loyal to Trump and not feel a
responsibility to warn the nation of what a danger he is to society would, by
definition, have to be either an idiot him or herself, or completely corrupt
and self-serving. Bill Barr is a perfect case in point.
.
So what we now have, is not a president
who tries to live up to, and build upon the accomplishments of previous
administrations, but one who slanders and tries to sabotage the accomplishments
of previous administrations so he can either bring attention to himself, or
distract from his other acts of stupidity that betray his incompetence. His
gutting of the Iran nuclear agreement is a perfect example of that.
.
It
is for precisely that reason that we must rid ourselves of this man. America
simply cannot afford to place our future in the hands of a self-serving lunatic.
Let me explain why:
.
It has been reported that Black conservative, Herman Cain, has recently died of
the Coronavirus a mere few weeks after attending one of Trump’s rallies. While
it’s always sad to hear about anyone’s death, the needless death of many
conservatives is an act of God and a perfect metaphor for life under Donald Trump
– or, make that, death under Donald Trump.
.
Nature sees to it that excellence is
always given the best chance to survive and reproduce. It’s called survival of
the fittest. That’s how nature continues to improve itself. But many of Trump’s
conservative supporters are proving that they lack the common sense necessary
to contribute to the betterment of humanity, so nature is using their poor
judgment regarding the Coronavirus (among other things) to weed them out. So what
we’re witnessing under Trump is, essentially, the final gasp of the Neanderthals. So it is
essential that we utilize every bit of our common sense so we won't perish along with them – and they’re trying mightily to take us along for the ride.
.
As a direct result of Trump’s fixation on placing
his personal interest over and above what’s in the best interest of the nation,
the United States has not only lost 150,000 citizens, but has also lost much of
our standing in the world among friends and foes alike. In the three and a half
years that Trump has been in office we’ve gone from one crisis or food fight
after another on nearly a daily basis. And what has he accomplished? He’s only succeeded in making the United States the laughingstock of the world, and making himself look like the complete idiot and incompetent fool that indeed he is.
.
But in spite of his glaring idiocy, now he wants us to completely ignore one of
the worst pandemics the world has ever experienced, and put our children's
lives in danger by sending them back to school where they can become infected by this deadly disease, and in
many cases die, or in other cases continue to spread it throughout the nation. And why is he asking us to make this horrific sacrifice? - for no other reason than to hide his incompetent and improve his chances of being re-elected. The man is
completely mindless. But just as horrifying as he is, is the number of people who can’t
see through his mindless idiocy. Look at the fix that Florida and the state of
Texas are in by trying to follow his dysfunctional lead.
.
So, no, it’s not surprising that Trump
won’t be paying his respect to Rep. John Lewis. It’s far too humiliating for
him. This entire episode started with one deluded dream of Trump's incompetent
mind. If Donald Trump - with all his money, bigotry, and GOP support
- could be granted his most passionate desire, it would be to get the kind of admiration
and respect that seems to be the exclusive domain of just one man - a Black man
- Barack Hussein Obama. Due to Donnie's irrational need to feel superior President Obama has become the object of
Donnie's obsession, and the bane of his existence. So, no, it is not the least
bit surprising that Donald wouldn't want to honor another Black man as he lies
in state. The symbolism is far too painful for a small, envious, and bigoted
mind to endure. .
