THIS ANALYSIS IS AS TRUE NOW, AS IT WAS 8 YEARS AGO.

(I FIRST PUBLISHED THIS ARTICLE ON 7/12/2016.  THE ONLY THINGS THAT HAVE CHANGED ARE: THE REPUBLICAN PARTYS LOYALTY TO THE FAR-RIGHT ELEMENT OF THE GOP HAS INCREASED, WITH THEIR OBEDIENCE TO DONALD TRUMPS IRRATIONAL AND HATE-BASED RHETORIC BEING VIRTUALLY UNOPPOSED BY THE LEADERSHIP. WHAT HASN'T CHANGED IS THE ALMOST COMPLETE DISREGARD FOR PROPER INTELLECTUAL ANALYSIS AND DISCOURSE WHEN THE GOP FORMS ANY PART OF THEIR POLITICAL AGENDA. TO THEM VOTER IGNORANCE, IRRATIONALITY, AND PERSONAL PREJUDICES ARE TO BE EXPLOITED AT ANY COST.

HATE CHRONICLES. THE KEYS TO UNDERSTANDING THE MINDSET, MOTIVATIONS, AND GOALS OF THE FAR-RIGHT FANATIC. #1.

It is a mistake for Progressives to think that those who make up the Most Conservative Elements of the "NEW REPUBLICAN PARTY" ARE ALL CUT FROM THE SAME CLOTH. WHILE THEY MAY VOTE AS A BLOC,THE PRIMARY MOTIVATION DIFFERS FROM GROUP TO GROUP.

While They are usually Packaged Together, ULTRA CONSERVATIVE POLITICIANS HAVE REALIZED THAT FINDING THE ONE KEY ISSUE THAT DRIVES CERTAIN GROUPS OF VOTERS TO THE POLLS, OFTEN WILL TURN THEM INTO LOYAL ALLIES, who will support an agenda full of Issues They may care little about.

It could be GUN CONTROL, SAME- SEX MARRIAGE, GOVERNMENT SPENDING, SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE, IMMIGRATION LAWS, REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE etc. THE STRATEGY IS TO PUT FORTH AN UNCOMPROMISING, RIGID, AND VITRIOLIC POINT OF VIEW ON A PARTICULAR ISSUE, APPEALING TO THE BASER ELEMENTS OF HUMAN NATURE.

THE REASON: TO LEARN OF THE ONE ISSUE THAT EACH SECTION OF INDIVIDUAL VOTERS MOST IDENTIFIES WITH, AND MANIPULATE IT TO THEIR ADVANTAGE.

IT'S A TACTIC THAT REQUIRES NO INTELLECTUAL EFFORT ON THE PART OF THE LISTENER.THERE IS NO NEED TO UNDERSTAND, OR EVEN CARE ABOUT THE OPPOSITIONS POINT OF VIEW. IT PLAYS ON RAW EMOTION, WITHOUT THE NEED FOR CONTEMPLATION OR REFLECTION.

THE INDIVIDUAL IS ENCOURAGED NOT TO THINK ABOUT AN INTELLECTUAL JUSTIFICATION FOR THE OPINION THEY ARE SUPPORTING, BUT TO REACT TO THE WORDS OF THE AUTHOR AND\OR SPEAKER, AND ACCEPTING THE MESSAGE AS TRUE, AND WORTHY OF SUPPORT.  THIS, IN TURN, ENCOURAGES AGREEMENT WITH OTHER OPINIONS THAT ARE EXPRESSED THE SAME WAY.

VLAD AND DONALD, IT WAS A GOOD PLAN...BUT HUMANITY IS MORE THAN JUST SYCOPHANTIC SELF-CENTERED YES MEN...PART 5.

 

You needed a Candidate that would appeal to a section of the Electorate who, while not necessarily being a majority, would be Vocal and Loyal Enough to stand by that Candidate no matter what. In other words, a section of the population who are so Self-Centered, Rigid and Lacking any real Intellectual Depth, that you can do or say anything, and as long as you; 

- Feed Their Egos.

- Promote Their Prejudices.

- Reinforce Their Ignorance.

- Encourage Their Hatreds.

You will have a group of Americans who will care about nothing but putting you In Office, and keeping you there. CRIMINAL ACTS, EVEN TREASON, ARE NOT STUMBLING BLOCKS. RIGGING AND MANIPULATING VOTE TOTALS ARE JUST A NECESSARY PART OF ESTABLISHING A FASCIST UTOPIA.

That didn't bother you, did it Donald? POWER, FAME, NOTORIETY, etc is all that matters. Destroying our CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC was just the price of doing business. When you were given that opportunity, was it just Sycophantic Members of the GOP that approached you, or was it also your future BFF PUTIN, and his GRU INTERNET STRIKE FORCE? YOU WOULD BE THE MOST POWERFUL MAN ON EARTH, IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER HOW YOU GET THERE, RIGHT? HEY, HITLER, STALIN, POL POT, IDI AMIN etc., DIDN'T REACH THE HEIGHTS OF POWER BY CARING ABOUT THEIR FELLOW CITIZENS, WHY SHOULD YOU?

BUT WAIT, SOMETHING ELSE HAD TO BE DONE, BEFORE YOU OPENED YOUR MOUTH...

TO BE CONTINUED... 

FEATURE ARTICLES. WHAT DOES THE U.S. CONSTITUTION ACTUALLY SAY ABOUT RELIGION? PT 2.(UPDATE)

 

In Part 1, I quoted Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution. I pointed out that this section of the Constitution, along with the First Amendment, are the only two places that religion is referred to in the entire body of the document.   I will now quote from the Bill of Rights, the section that references religion.

First Amendment-  "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

There you have it.  These two passages make it clear what role religion would play in the development of the new republic, and at no time do they contradict each other. 

- Congress would not address the subject of religion in any way.

- There would be no religious test to hold public office.  One need only swear allegiance to the Constitution. 

However, Now we have JUDGES IMPOSING THEIR OWN PERSONAL CHRISTIAN BELIEFS ON DECIDING THE CONSTITUTIONALITY OF CERTAIN ISSUES. IN OTHER WORDS, IT MUST PASS THEIR "RELIGIOUS TEST." These are CHRISTIAN FASCISTS WHO ARE SEEKING TO UNDERMINE AND DESTROY THE CONCEPT OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM FOR ALL BY LEGALIZING THEIR OWN FAITH AND CRIMINALIZING OTHER FAITHS.

- Since Religious Freedom is considered a right that every American has, it cannot be taken away.  In other words, creating and passing legislation that removes this right is not possible.

For those who claim that the founding fathers had an agenda that would establish Christianity as an essential part of our legal system, and that it is justified within the body of the Constitution, ignore certain details.  None of the following appears within the ratified document;

• God.
• Jesus.
• Christian or Christianity.
• Prayer.
• Bible.
• Old or New Testament.
• Sin.
• Heaven or Hell.

In fact, the only word that could possibly be a reference to a Supreme Being is the use of the term "Lord".  However, this word is used only once in the following fragment; "...in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and Eighty seven...".  This was a common way that dates and times were presented in print, and was not considered to be an expression of faith.

It's amazing that many of todays Lawmakers wish to regulate public policy according to the faiths and beliefs of certain segments of American society.  This completely ignores the obvious intentions of the Framers of the Constitution.  Why would they make it the law of the land to require no religious test to hold public office, and then seek to Legislate by Doctrines found in certain faiths?

THE GUN CONTROL DEBATE: TIME TO SETTLE THIS ONCE AND FOR ALL. PART 1.

FIRST WE ARE GOING TO REPRINT THE ONLY TWO PARTS OF THE U.S. CONSTITUTION THAT ARE RELEVANT TO THE DISCUSSION:

FROM ARTICLE 1, SECTION. 8 The Congress shall have Power...

...To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces; To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions; To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress...

THE 2ND AMENDMENT

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Important terms:

MILITIA- IS NOW CALLED THE NATIONAL GUARD.

REGULATION- A RULE OR LAW THAT IS ADMINISTERED BY A RECOGNIZED LEGAL AUTHORITY.

DISCIPLINE- TRAINING AND SUPERVISING INDIVIDUALS TO FOLLOW SPECIFIC RULES, AND OBEDIENCE TO A DEFINITIVE CODE OF CONDUCT. 

SEE PART 2.

They Called Us Alarmist, Then They Overturned Roe. INDIVISIBLE ACTION.

 

David, A trio of stories over the past week have provided a glimpse into how devastating a second Trump term would be for reproductive freedom. Not just abortion -- everything from contraception to fertility treatments are under threat. When we talk about stuff this dystopian, some try to write it off as alarmism or a symptom of “Trump derangement syndrome.” But these stories are notable because two come from inside Trump’s circle -- their plans in their words. And a third demonstrates that in Republican-controlled states, some of the most alarming plans are already underway.  You may have seen these stories, but a lot of voters haven’t -- and it’s up to all of us to raise the volume on this news and do everything within our power to defeat Trump this November.  Trump would % sign an abortion ban First, after an election cycle filled with maddening stories casting Trump’s positions on abortion as somehow mysterious and unknown, The New York Times reported last week that Trump backs a national abortion ban.  The Trump campaign is pretending to be angry about this ‘leak,’ but let’s be real here – this is obviously the campaign soft launching a ban at an arbitrary amount of weeks (it’s reported he likes sixteen because it’s is a nice round number) to see how extreme he can take his position without dooming his reelection prospects.  This is the guy who stacked the Court with anti-abortion justices. Who bragged about getting rid of Roe. Who said women who get abortions need to be punished. And having seen the devastating fallout of the fall of Roe, where 14 states have banned abortion, maternity wards are shutting down, and women are going septic because doctors are afraid to treat ectopic pregnancies, has decided it’s not enough.  Anyone paying attention knows he’d sign whatever ban Congress puts on his desk. But for those who haven’t been paying attention, this reporting is valuable. So please be sure to share it widely (here are some posts on Insta / Facebook / Threads / Bluesky to get you started).  Abortion bans are just the start Folks need to understand that Trump will sign an abortion ban if he gets the chance. And they also need to understand -- as the next important story this week illustrates -- that a second Trump presidency will restrict our intimate, private family decisions in ways that go far beyond abortion rights.  An under-the-radar report from Politico this week revealed that one of Trump’s close advisors -- a strong contender for chief-of-staff in a second Trump administration -- is spearheading plans to infuse Christian Nationalist policies into a second term.  Like abortion bans, other policies associated with Christian Nationalism force the religious beliefs of a fervent minority on the entire population. Politico did not obtain the full details of the plan, but leaders of the project have publicly advocated for a rollback on marriage equality, attacks on trans rights, ending no-fault divorce, restricting access to contraception, and limiting treatment options for people struggling to get pregnant.  It’s common to hear disaffected voters say election outcomes won’t make a difference in their lives. Those voters need to know that a Trump win means a Christian Nationalist government that decides if, when, and how they start a family. Share the story to make sure they know (again, here are some posts on Insta / Facebook / Threads / Bluesky to help).  And for the skeptical… We know that some will still dismiss the above as fake news, alarmism, and lib hysteria. A year before the Supreme Court tore up Roe, people were saying that would never happen either.  But we don’t need to rely on reporting about what a potential Trump administration plans to do, because we can look at what MAGA Republicans are doing right now where they hold power.  And that brings us to one final story from the week -- this one comes from Alabama, where the state Supreme Court dropped a shocking ruling declaring that embryos created through IVF are children under state law. This radical decision has already led to at least three IVF clinics pausing treatment, and patients left confused and scared about their care options and control over their own embryos. It’s Christian Nationalism in practice. And the Court made no attempt to hide it. In his concurring opinion, the Chief Justice wrote: “The theologically based view of the sanctity of life adopted by the People of Alabama encompasses the following: God made every person in His image…and human life cannot be wrongfully destroyed without incurring the wrath of a holy God.” Yikes.  So what do we do?   This stuff is undeniably scary. But here’s the good news: It’s also incredibly unpopular. The vast majority of Americans want abortion to be safe and legal. Where abortion is on the ballot, it wins over and over again.  Most voters have personal connections with people who’ve needed an abortion or fertility treatment, and good luck convincing people they should be forced to stay in bad marriages or lose access to the contraception they depend on.  Trump’s base thinks Christian Nationalism is cool (and that’s why he’ll support it, even if he can't name a single Bible verse), but two-thirds of Americans view it negatively.  So let’s make a lot of noise about this stuff. Share these links. Have conversations with people in your lives. Let’s draw the contrast for voters:  Trump = Abortion bans and MAGA extremists enforcing their religious views on the most personal decisions you’ll ever have to make  Biden + Democratic Trifecta = Reproductive freedom in all 50 states.  And then let’s do everything we can to turn out the voters on our side. Because the only way we’re going to avoid this dystopian future is if we win in November.  Two ways you can help make that happen:  Sign up to volunteer with Indivisible this election season >> Donate to help us elect pro-reproductive freedom, pro-democracy candidates up and down the ballot and ensure Trump never gets anywhere near the White House again >>  Whatever you're feeling after this past week (fear, anger, outrage, come to mind), I want to remind you you're not alone. I think it's worth repeating here: The majority of people, when they hear about this stuff, they are also scared, angry, outraged. It's our job to get them mobilized -- and to keep fighting to protect all our rights, as long as it takes.  In solidarity, Hannah Wheelwright Indivisible Senior Policy Manager Chip in >>

VLAD AND DONALD, IT WAS A GOOD PLAN...BUT HUMANITY IS MORE THAN JUST SYCOPHANTIC SELF-CENTERED YES MEN...PART 4.

 

VLAD, We know, from recent history, that RUSSIA is fully capable of launching CYBER ATTACKS on supposedly secure COMPUTER SYSTEMS/WEBSITES ACROSS THE GLOBE. The Goal? Punish anyone, POLITICAL, CORPORATE OR PRIVATE, who would dare stand up to your increasingly Totalitarian Regime. Did the GRU recommend that such an attack could be accomplished against the U.S. ELECTORAL SYSTEM? What an idea!!

Of course, you would need a Candidate whose agenda could be molded to fit your needs, one who would not make any real attempt to jeopardize your plans to Invade and Seize control of UKRAINE. That would probably preclude virtually every National Politician of either party who stood a realistic chance of winning their party's nomination. But what about a DARK HORSE, one who had visibility and was frequently seen in the National Media. ( Positive or Negative? Doesn't matter. As they say, any publicity is a good thing.)

How did Donalds name surface? Was it during the GOP MEMBERS VISIT TO MOSCOW IN 2013? Did the GRU "Test The Waters," to see if there would be a positive reaction to such a Candidate? (From what we know now, it would be a resounding yes.) In addition, the RIGHT CANDIDATE WOULD HAVE THE ENDORSEMENT OF THE NRA, A GROUP WITH STRONG TIES TO YOUR REGIME. THIS WOULD GIVE YOU A CANDIDATE THAT WOULD HAVE THE BACKING OF ONE OF THE STRONGEST PACS IN U.S. POLITICS.

However, you needed a Candidate who would have to push a Domestic Agenda that could appeal to enough Americans which would make a Presidential Victory at least Superficially Plausible, which might prevent any scrutiny of election results. To do this...

A SHORT ANSWER ON QUORA.COM TO A STATEMENT MADE ABOUT TRUMP SUPPORTERS. PART 2.

I believe that the Fascist Mentality of Trump Supporters is based on the concept that anything Trump Does or Says, whether Legal or Illegal, Constitutional or not, is justified because he represents the Society of Hate and Repression they long for. They do not examine anything more than the Hate filled Rhetoric spewed forth by Trump, for nothing else matters. It is an Anti-Intellectual and Amoral mindset that is trying to take over our System of Government, which includes trashing the Constitution, and then shaping it into a Fascist Manifesto.

A SHORT ANSWER ON QUORA.COM TO A STATEMENT MADE ABOUT TRUMP SUPPORTERS.

 

THE STATEMENT:

...And it makes me wonder what in the name of sweet Baby Jesus he has done to formerly sensible citizens of my country whom I formerly regarded as the LOYAL opposition. This power to bewitch people whom I formerly regarded as fellow patriots is the most dismaying thing of all.

MY RESPONSE:

Just a minor criticism. The True Supporters of Trump have always been with us. Racists, Fascists, Homophobes, Bigots. etc., have found themselves a Media/Putin creation to lead them in Destroying our Constitutional Republic, which they have always hated. Trump and the Fascist Party of America/GOP have learned to organize these Hitlerian / Stalinist sections of the American Public. Ask yourself the following: Are you really surprised when certain Family or Friends have come out in favor of Trump, in that they never offered Comments, Attitudes, and/or Behaviors in the past that gave you a glimpse into their real personality? Did their Hate-Filled views on American Life suddenly spring up with Der Fuehrer Trump?

VLAD AND DONALD, IT WAS A GOOD PLAN...BUT HUMANITY IS MORE THAN JUST SYCOPHANTIC SELF-CENTERED YES MEN...PART 3.

 

What could you do VLAD?

It seemed only a matter of time before UKRAINE was accepted into NATO, and that would not do at all. You could make up some Weak Excuse about UKRAINIAN PROVOCATION. However, BEING THE AGGRESSOR NATION ATTACKING A FELLOW MEMBER WOULD MEAN A GREAT DEAL OF INVESTIGATION BY OTHER COUNTRIES, AND YOU WOULD BE EXPOSED. NATO would probably come down hard on your regime, with harsh penalties and sanctions.

So you had to act soon. How could you block, or at least delay membership long enough to put your plans for invasion in motion? Who could help you do that? Did someone mention a certain AMERICAN MILLIONAIRE, WHO FOR YEARS HAD BEEN TRYING TO ESTABLISH A LUXURY HOTEL IN MOSCOW, WITH HIS NAME CLEARLY VISIBLE ON THE BUILDING FOR ALL TO SEE?

Perhaps you learned about how this SELF-CENTERED EGOMANIAC, WHOSE MOST NOTABLE ACHIEVEMENT WAS STARRING IN SOME SCRIPTED "REALITY" TV SHOW THAT WAS LITTLE MORE THAN A TRANSPARENT ATTEMPT TO MAKE MONEY ON EXPLOITING HIS ENORMOUS EGO, could be used in the one way that might force NATO to back off any actions or repercussions that might occur if you decided to seize control of UKRANIAN TERRITORY. At the very least, he could make sure that possible UKRANIAN MEMBERSHIP IN NATO could be derailed for the near future. 

So how could we get this man elected PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES? It probably sounded absurd at first, BUT THEN THE GRU MAPPED OUT A SCENARIO...

WHAT TYPE OF PEOPLE STILL SUPPORT TRUMP?

WELL, BESIDES FASCIST TV, BETTER KNOWN AS FOXNEWS, AND 

PUTIN-VISION, BETTER KNOWN AS SINCLAIR BROADCASTING.

VLAD AND DONALD, IT WAS A GOOD PLAN...BUT HUMANITY IS MORE THAN JUST SYCOPHANTIC SELF-CENTERED YES MEN...PART 2.

 

Here are a couple of Definitions that may help us understand the true nature of the RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PUTIN AND TRUMP, AND THE DEVASTATION THAT WILL RESULT IF THEY BOTH GET WHAT THEY WANT.

IS THE RUSSIAN GOVERNMENT COMMITTING ACTS OF TERRORISM?

BY DEFINITION, YES. (THE AREAS OUTLINED IN RED REFER TO THE RUSSIAN INVASION OF UKRAINE.)

TERRORISM: THE USE OF VIOLENCE, OR THREAT OF SUCH, TO ADVANCE THE DOCTRINE, IDEOLOGY, RULES, OR GOALS OF A GIVEN AND IDENTIFIABLE GROUP THAT IS NOT GENERALLY REGARDED AS A LEGITIMATE POLITICAL ENTITY, OR THE RECOGNIZED LEGAL AUTHORITY FOR A RESIDENT POPULATION OR GEOGRAPHICAL AREA.  

ARE PUTIN AND TRUMP FASCISTS? FASCISM: A PHILOSOPHY OF GOVERNMENT WHERE ALL THE  POLITICAL, SOCIAL, AND LEGAL POWER RESTS WITH A SINGLE PERSON, OR A VERY SMALL SET OF INDIVIDUALS. CONCEPTS SUCH AS INDIVIDUAL RIGHTS, FREEDOM OF THE PRESS, DUE PROCESS, MINIMAL STANDARDS OF CARE etc. DO NOT EXIST. YOU GET WHAT THE ONE, OR THE FEW, GIVES YOU. THERE IS NO LEGAL OPPORTUNITY TO DEMONSTRATE, OR TO SEEK REDRESS AGAINST ALLEGED INJUSTICES OF GRIEVANCES. THE ACT OF DISAGREEING, BY ITSELF, CAN BE CONSIDERED A CRIMINAL ACT,. WHICH MAY RESULT IN FINES, IMPRISONMENT, OR EVEN DEATH.

SO YES, BY PUTINS ACTIONS AS HEAD OF STATE, AND TRUMPS DESIRE TO SEIZE POWER ILLEGALLY, TO CRACK DOWN ON DISSENTING SPEECH, AND TO RESHAPE OUR CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM ACCORDING TO HIS, AND HIS CLOSEST ASSOCIATES, PERSONAL CODE OF CONDUCT, MAKES THEM BOTH FASCISTS.

VLAD AND DONALD, IT WAS A GOOD PLAN...BUT HUMANITY IS MORE THAN JUST SYCOPHANTIC SELF-CENTERED YES MEN...PART 1.

 

...You know, your support base.

It must have been a real shock. Everything was all set. In fact, people are still arguing about why VLAD didn't invade UKRAINE during DONALDS tenure as U.S. President.

They say it was because he didn't need to, a TRUMP WHITE HOUSE gave him everything he wanted. But that's not true. He couldn't create a NEW IRON CURTAIN, AND FOR YOU VLAD, THAT IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL. BELARUS IS IN YOUR POCKET, but UKRAINE IS THE BIGGEST PIECE OF THE PUZZLE. What is the long-term goal? SEIZE UKRAINE, and the rest of the DOMINOS fall?

However, the U.S., and the UNITED NATIONS, WOULD NEVER SIT STILL FOR SUCH NAKED AGGRESSION. After all, the U.S. is the Economic Backbone of this Organization designed to preserve the peace among all countries. I mean without the approval, or at least the neutrality, of the STRONGEST NATION ON EARTH, IT WOULD BE A MONUMENTAL CHALLENGE THAT COULD LEAD TO THE DESTRUCTION OF YOUR ADMINISTRATION, WITH POSSIBLE CALAMITOUS RESULTS FOR THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE. (However, I doubt you care that much about the RUSSIAN PEOPLE, who deserve much better than you).

What could you do VLAD?

IS THERE A BOTTOM? ARE TRUMP SUPPORTERS SO ETHICALLY CHALLENGED THAT THEY WILL SUPPORT HIM NO MATTER WHAT? UPDATED.

 

Oh my, the Trumpians are throwing a Temper Tantrum. Why? This is from the Associated Press:

Trump is not immune from prosecution in his 2020 election interference case, US appeals court says

The ruling is significant not only for its stark repudiation of Donald Trump’s novel immunity claims but also because it breathes life back into a landmark prosecution that had been effectively frozen for weeks as the court considered the appeal. Read More. Oh the Horror, imagine that the President of the U.S. cannot commit Criminal Acts with impunity.

Hitler and Stalin would be so ashamed of the FASCIST PARTY OF AMERICA/GOP. They are not living up to the Despotic Standards they tried so hard to create.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There is no need for any preliminaries: On 9/30/2022 Donald Trump wrote the following on Truth Social;

“Is McConnell approving all of these Trillions of Dollars worth of Democrat-sponsored Bills, without even the slightest bit of negotiation, because he hates Donald J. Trump, and he knows I am strongly opposed to them, or is he doing it because he believes in the Fake and Highly Destructive Green New Deal, and is willing to take the Country down with him?” Mr. Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“In any event, either reason is unacceptable. He has a DEATH WISH. Must immediately seek help and advise from his China loving wife, Coco Chow!” he added.

Anybody who has spent any time on this site knows what I think of Mitch McConnell, and since he has spent much of the past 5-6 Years promoting Fascism, and "DER RUEHRER" TRUMP, it is hard for me to have any sympathy for him. Yet, even at my level of disdain for him personally, it would never occur to me to imply a physical threat if he doesn't change, or use a juvenile racial slur about his wife.

Why would he do this? BECAUSE HE KEEPS GETTING AWAY WITH IT, AND HE REALIZES THAT HIS HARD-CORE SUPPORTERS ARE LITTLE MORE THAN FASCIST THUGS, WHOSE SOCIAL AND INTELLECTUAL DEVELOPMENT SEEMS TO LACK THE ABILITY TO EMPATHIZE AND UNDERSTAND THAT HUMANITY IS MORE THAN JUST A WORD DESCRIBING PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES, BUT A SPECIES WHO HAVE DEVELOPED THE ABILITY TO FORM AND CREATE ETHICAL GUIDELINES THAT ALLOW FOR PEACEFUL CO-EXISTENCE APPLICABLE TO ALL IT'S MEMBERS.

It would be different if this were an aberration, but the DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP, NEWS MEDIA, ACADEMIA etc., seems to forget the recent past. Well, I don't.

TAKE FOR EXAMPLE THE FOLLOWING;

CANDIDATE TRUMP  TALKING ABOUT HILLARY CLINTON,

HINTING AT WHAT GUN EXTREMISTS COULD DO if she is elected.

8/10/2016.

“If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. 

Although the second amendment people, maybe there is, 

I don’t know. But I’ll tell you what, that will be a horrible day.”

I realized, right then, that DONALD TRUMP was a Vile and Contemptible Human Being. To imply that ASSASINATING  YOUR OPPONENT MIGHT BE A VIABLE AND ACCEPTABLE OPTION IS SO MORALLY REPUGNANT THAT I COULDN'T BELIEVE ANYONE WHO VALUED FREEDOM AND RESPONSIBLE GOVERNMENT WOULD HAND THIS COUNTRY OVER TO A SOCIOPATHIC HATE-MONGER. 

EVEN MURDER WOULDN'T BOTHER HIS MOST FANATIC SUPPORTERS. 

1/23/2016

"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters."

Actually, it would have been more accurate for TRUMP to have said; ..."and I wouldn't lose votes." Why? We know now that the Rigging of Voter returns in Key States was suppose to Guarantee a TRUMP Victory, but just in case that the plan was discovered, and thwarted, Donald concentrated on a campaign that would ensure that his Most Radical Supporters:

White Supremacists.

Religious Zealots.

Xenophobes.

Homophobes.

Ultra-Conservative Nationalists.

Not only would support him, but defend any Lie or Deception that Trump spread across the Media. Unfortunately, as has happened so many times over the past half dozen years or so, Trump says things like the examples above, and the opposition and the Media fail to point out previous transgressions.

As of now, we hear constant talk about TRUMP making False Claims about the 2020 Election, Yet for some bizarre reason there is a failure to MENTION THAT TRUMP MADE THE SAME ACCUSATIONS BEFORE THE 2016 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, AND AFTER THE 2018 MID-TERMS.

In 2016 it was a clever Back-Up, in case Russia didn't deliver on the anticipated altering of Voter Returns in Key States. He had a ready made collection of FASCIST SYCHOPHANTS ready to believe anything he said. (So the Insurrection had to wait 4 years) In 2018, it was a way to explain the GOP losses at the polls. 

Remember the following? Do you really think they were calculated to appeal to the Majority of Americans, or a select segment:

TALKING ABOUT MEXICO.

6/15/2015

"They're sending people that have lots of problems, and they're bringing those problems with us. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."

Immigration.

1/11/2018

“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries coming here?”

Violence In Charlottesville.

8/12/2017

I GUESS IN TRUMPS "MIND" WHEN RIGHT-WING EXTREMISTS COMMIT ACTS OF TERRORISM AND VIOLENCE THE VICTIMS ARE EQUALLY AT FAULT.

“We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides. On many sides.”

These are just a few examples, but you get the idea. As I have said in the past:

THE CONSTITUTION MANDATES THAT WE TOLERATE SPEECH WE CONSIDER OFFENSIVE. HOWEVER, WE ARE NOT REQUIRED TO RESPECT IT. IF YOU BELIEVE I AM BEING UNFAIR TO TRUMP SUPPORTERS, I LEAVE IT TO YOU: PLEASE POINT OUT WHAT YOU CONSIDER TO BE THE "RESPECTFUL" NATURE OF THE THINGS TRUMP AND HIS ALLIES DO AND SAY. I AM ON FACEBOOK, TWITTER, TUMBLER, DIGG AND LINKEDIN. I WOULD BE MORE THAN WILLING TO GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO POINT OUT DONALD TRUMPS POSITIVE QUALITIES, AND HOW HIS SUPPORTERS JUST WANT WHAT IS BEST FOR THIS COUNTRY.

UPDATE- TAKEN FROM THE INSIDER ARTICLE: 

Liz Cheney is the only Republican member of Congress to explicitly condemn Trump's racist remarks about Mitch McConnell's wife Elaine Chao— but disapproval among the GOP is growing.

BY ERIN SNODGRASS

Several prominent conservatives this week denounced former President Donald Trump's racist remarks toward Elaine Chao, a one-time member of Trump's own cabinet and wife to GOP Sen. Mitch McConnell.

Sen. Liz Cheney, however, remains the only Republican member of Congress thus far to explicitly condemn the former president for his xenophobic comments.

Trump on Friday unleashed a barrage of insults against Senate Minority Leader McConnell in a Truth Social tirade accusing the Kentucky lawmaker of approving "trillions of dollars worth of Democrat sponsored bills" because he "hates Donald J, Trump."

"He has a DEATH WISH," Trump wrote in a marked escalation of his usual political rhetoric.

In castigating Trump on Monday, Cheney became the only Republican member of Congress to publicly decry the former president's remarks. McConnell himself has yet to address the situation.

"When you see former President Trump just in the last 24 hours suggesting in a pretty thinly veiled way, using words that could well cause violence against the Republican leader of the Senate, saying he has a death wish and then, you know, launching an absolutely despicable, racist attack against Secretary Chao, Leader McConnell's wife, and then you watch the fact that nobody in my party will say that's unacceptable," Cheney said during at an event held at Syracuse University, according to The Hill.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

WOW, I've often criticized the Democratic Leadership for not standing up to DONALD TRUMP, BUT FOR THE ENTIRE GOP MEMBERSHIP IN CONGRESS NOT TO CONDEMN "DER FUEHRERS" RACIST COMMENTS, OR HIS COMMENTS ON MCCONNELL HAVING A "DEATH WISH" TELL ME ONE THING:

THE GOP IS SO WRAPPED UP IN THE FASCIST AGENDA OF TRUMP, THAT THEIR CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERSHIP IS LITTLE MORE THAN A COLLECTION OF ETHICAL, SOCIAL, AND PHYSICAL COWARDS.

MY GOD, MCCONNELL WON'T EVEN STAND UP FOR HIS WIFE, AND HIS REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES WON'T EVEN ADDRESS THE THREAT MADE AGAINST HIM. 

OXFORD DEFINITION OF COWARD: a person who lacks the courage to do or endure dangerous or unpleasant things.

HOW DOES THIS NOT DESCRIBE TODAYS GOP?

TRUMP AND MAGA: WHEN FASCISM AND HATE MASQUERADE AS CHRISTIANITY.

 

As usual, opponents of Der Fuehrer Trump and his Fascist Followers are again missing the point when dealing with this Minority Group of Treasonous Hitlerites/Stalinists. (One and the same.)

They keep referring to them as "Christians", yet they fail to ask the most pertinent Question of All?

WHAT MAKES THEM "CHRISTIANS?" Just because someone defines themselves as such, why do others automatically accept it? I can call myself anything I want, but others are not Morally or Legally required to accept it as Valid and Reasonable. I have referred to Trump and his Gang as "CHRISTIAN FASCISTS" TO EMPHASIZE THE POINT THAT THEY ARE NOT TRUE FOLLOWERS OF THE TEACHINGS TAKEN FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT, BUT ARE HIJACKING THE NAME TO ENFORCE THEIR OWN BRAND OF CONFORMITY TO CERTAIN SOCIAL NORMS THAT MUST BE LEGALLY BOUND TO ALL CITIZENS. A SELECT LEADERSHIP WILL MAKE SURE THAT THEY WILL BE OBEYED AT EVERY POINT OF LAW. (OR ELSE.)

As we have seen throughout Human History, Religious Faith and a select System of Government often come together to enforce upon Populations their own set of Laws and Social Norms that give both what they really want: Power, Prestige, and Steady flow of Cash.

"OBEY THE KING, QUEEN, EMPRESS, EMPEROR etc...THEIR WORD IS LAW."

"...BUT WHY?...

"YOU DARE QUESTION THE AUTHORITY OF THE CHURCH? THAT CROWN WAS PLACED THERE BY THE HAND OF GOD, THROUGH HIS SERVANTS ON EARTH."

"IF YOU QUESTION THE THRONE, YOU QUESTION GOD. YOUR SOUL IS IN JEOPARDY OF ETERNAL TORMENT, SO MAYBE SOME PROPER PERSUASION OR REFLECTION IS IN ORDER."

Basically, Until the "AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT" which was best exemplified by the Intellectual Development of having a Country that was not Ruled by Self-Styled "Royalty" or bound by the Moral Code of a Select Set of Religious Leaders that became the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Humanity was subject to the whims of a select few...NOW THAT FEW WANT THE POWER BACK...
