DID YOU EVER THINK YOU’D SEE A PRESIDENT SO DESPERATE, SELF-SERVING, AND UN-AMERICAN THAT HE’D TRY TO OVERTURN THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE?

DID YOU EVER THINK YOU’D SEE A PRESIDENT SO DESPERATE, SELF-SERVING, AND UN-AMERICAN THAT HE’D TRY TO OVERTURN THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE?  


Since Trump lost the election, he’s showing just how self-serving and unstable he really is. In spite of the fact that America is suffering through one of the worst crises in its history, since Trump lost the November election he hasn’t focused on anything other than trying to figure out how to get our institutions to ignore the will of the people. That’s not an American mindset. It’s dictatorial.     

. 

But that shouldn’t be surprising, because Donald has the mentality of a spoiled little bratty rich kid because he suffers from a retarded development. He didn’t have to earn his way through life like the average American. Throughout his developmental years his father simply gave him everything he wanted. As a result, he didn’t have to develop the character and intellect that most of us were forced to nurture in order to survive in the world. If he wanted friends and allies, he simply bought them, and according to his sister, former federal judge, Maryanne Trump, when he wanted to go to college, he simply hired someone to take the SAT exam for him - and she did much of his homework.  
. 
As a result, in spite of the fact that Trump claimed that he finished at the top of his class at Wharton business school at the University of Pennsylvania, his former college professor, William T. Kelley, remembers it quite differently. The professor said that “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had.” And that seems to be substantiated by his former attorney and fixer, Michael Cohen, who said he was order by Trump to contact the schools that Donald formerly attended and threaten them with lawsuits if they dared to release Donald's transcripts.  
. 

But it's no secret. Donald is, indeed, dumb. Many people say that he just has a tendency to break norms. That’s true. He routinely breaks norms, but many of his supporters think it’s because he’s bold, and has a fearless and no-nonsense outlook on life. But that’s not it at all. He breaks norms because he doesn’t have sense enough to know what normal is. Respectfully - but truthfully - the man is so mindlessly incompetent, the fact that the GOP can take him at all seriously speaks volumes about their intellectual acuity, and it's scary.  .
Why would anyone with even a bit of common sense fight for this grossly inept human being to remain president?
Trump is fighting desperately to remain in office, even to the point of committing sedition, but for what? It's obvious to the entire world that he's uniquely ill-equipped to handle the job. While he's been busy throwing spitballs at Fox News and everyone else who refuses to revere him, Russia has launched a cyber attack on the United States that's been compared to the cyber equivalent of the Pearl Harbor attack, and it took him a week to utter a word - and even then it was to rush to Russia's defense. He's been secluded in his little cocoon pouting over losing the election. But that's not surprising.  We can just add that to when he took Russia's side over our 17 national security agencies in Helsinki, and when he was afraid to utter a word after Putin placed a bounty on the lives of American troops.
.
There's something more than just curious about Trump's attitude towards Russia, and I'm sure it will come out once he leaves office. It's really going to be interesting to find out what's behind his fear of Putin, and eventually we will. Is it actually fear, or are the Russians secretly propping him up through shell companies?
. 
At any rate, the United States has dodged a bullet in the past four years. and we're lucky to be rid of Trump. The nation has been running on autopilot for the past four years, because Trump doesn’t know any more about governing than your average janitor, and he’s not as smart as many. His security team had to draw pictures in his Presidential Daily Briefings and confine them to one page just to hold his attention, and if his father hadn’t given him $400 million and propped him up all his young life, he’d be homeless, and too dumb to apply for welfare.
 After all, what level of stupidity does it take to drive a casino into bankruptcy, where people just walk in and give you their money? But Trump did it 6 (SIX TIMES!) - Trump Taj Mahal (1991), Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino (1992), Plaza Hotel (1992), Trump Castle Hotel and Casino (1992), Trump Hotels and Casino Resorts (2004), and Trump Entertainment Resorts (2009). 
.
Yet, this man claims he's going to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN? Please! I wouldn't trust him to run a hot dog stand. But that begs another question - if Trump is the leader, how severe is the intellectual deficits that his GOP lackeys and followers entertain? I was watching Sen. Ron Johnson's hearing on election fraud the other day, and he came off like looking like a complete idiot.

. 
The bottom line is, Trump’s only talent is living on his father’s name and slapping the Trump brand on everything that doesn't move. That came naturally for him, because he’s grossly insecure, and as a result, he’s disgustingly narcissistic – he has to be, just to hide who he knows himself to actually be. So, slapping his name on everything that stands still is a form of therapy for him. When he sees his name on a large building, he considers the building an extension of his weak self-image. We should have recognized Trump's intellectual deficits when he ran for office, but unfortunately, here in America, far too often we equate money and privilege with intellect. If we don’t correct that assumption, it’s going to lead to our undoing. Maybe Trump will be a valuable lesson in that regard.
. 
Because for Trump, nothing in life is more important than protecting his image and preventing the world from seeing through his fragile façade. That’s why he’s so thin-skinned. He considers any criticism, slight, or disagreement with him an existential assault on the façade that he’s so painstakingly erected. That’s one of the many reasons – along with the legal liabilities that await him – that he’s so desperate over losing the election to Joe Biden. As far as he’s concerned, a gracious loser is a loser nevertheless, and his fragile childlike ego is not healthy enough to handle that. 
. 
But his weak ego is about to get him into trouble this time. First, the manufacturer of the Dominion voting machines is probably going to sue him for every penny he’s supposed to have for his repeated lying about their voting machines. And secondly, his desperate attempt to overrule the will of the people has caused him to cross the line of the law into sedition. So, he’s about to find out that while ignorance may be bliss, it’s also dangerous.


SEDITION 

. 

Sedition is a serious felony punishable by fines and up to 20 years in prison. It refers to the act of inciting revolt or violence against a lawful authority with the goal of destroying or overthrowing the government. 

 


So, good Luck, Donnie. I've stocked up on popcorn for the third act.
