HOW HAVE WE COME TO THIS? THE INCOMPETENCE, IRRATIONALITY, CRIMINALITY, AND BETRAYAL THAT HAS LEAD THE U.S. TO EDGE OF THE ABYSS. PT 5. THE ACA AND FOR PROFIT TRUMPCARE.

THE FOLLOWING ARE MY DEFINITIONS, BUT I THINK THEY ARE REASONABLY CLOSE TO WHAT WOULD BE FOUND IN BOTH CIVIL OR CRIMINAL LAW.


A PUBLIC SERVANT OR ELECTED OFFICIAL HAS A DUTY TO WORK ON BEHALF OF THOSE WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THE ACTIONS AND DECISIONS THAT ARE PART OF THE RESPONSIBILITIES THAT ARE DEFINED BY THE POSITION OCCUPIED BY THE INDIVIDUAL. 

TO USE SUCH A POSITION TO ENRICH YOURSELF, AND/OR A SELECTED GROUP, BY MAKING DECISIONS THAT WOULD NEGATIVELY AFFECT THOSE WHO ARE PART OF THE POPULATION THAT FALLS UNDER THE PUBLIC SERVANT OR ELECTED OFFICIALS DIRECT INFLUENCE, SET BY LAW, IS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

SIMPLY PUT: PUTTING SELF-INTEREST ABOVE THE PUBLIC INTEREST.


WITH THAT BEING SAID, HOW IS DONALD TRUMP STILL ALLOWED TO ENDORSE PRIVATE INSURANCE PRODUCTS? EVEN WORSE, HE USES THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT TO DO SO. 

TO HAVE HIM USE HIS OFFICE TO END THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT, WHICH BENEFITS MILLIONS OF AMERICANS, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ENDORSING PRIVATE INSURANCE PRODUCTS, IS AN OBSCENITY.


MY GOD, DOES HE JUST DO WHAT HE WANTS, WITH NO ONE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT, 
OR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, WILLING TO STAND UP AND SAY: "NO MORE,YOU CAN'T DO THIS." 

(SORRY, BUT I DO NOT EXPECT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY TO OBJECT TO ANYTHING HE DOES. THAT WOULD TAKE INTEGRITY AND HONOR, TWO TRAITS THEY NO LONGER POSSESS.)

BELOW IS A TYPICAL EXAMPLE;

HOW HAVE WE COME TO THIS? THE INCOMPETENCE, IRRATIONALITY, CRIMINALITY, AND BETRAYAL THAT HAS LEAD THE U.S. TO EDGE OF THE ABYSS. PT 4. THE ADVERTORIAL: DONALD TRUMPS GET RICH QUICK SCHEMES.



ADVERTORIAL- A SALES AND MARKETING STRATEGY BY WHICH ADVERTISERS TRY TO SELL PRODUCTS AND/OR SERVICES TO THE CONSUMER BY DISGUISING THE SALES PITCH AS A "NEWS" REPORT, ITEM, OR INVESTIGATION. IT IS A PRACTICE THAT RELIES ON THE GULLIBILITY, AND TRUST, OF SOME CONSUMERS WHO BELIEVE IN THE "INHERENT" TRUSTWORTHINESS OF THE NEWS MEDIA.

NOW, YOU WOULD EXPECT THAT A "SELF- DESCRIBED" GENIUS IN THE WORLD OF BUSINESS WOULD NOT NEED TO ENGAGE IN SUCH  DECEPTIVE PRACTICES. WELL, DONALD TRUMP SEEMS TO NEVER LET THE TRUTH GET IN THE WAY OF WHAT HE WANTS. 

HERE ARE TWO EXAMPLES:


BEFORE THE 2016 ELECTION.

Donald Trump reveals simple plan to help every American earn more money.
By Michael Pearson, Faith Karimi, and Joe Sutton, Fox News.


Mr, Trump says the best opportunity available is a new program called Home Cash Code which teaches regular people to take advantage of this massive internet opportunity quickly and easily, and even places them with real online companies that pay them for their time completing simple tasks.
"Sara Taylor is absolutely changing the world with her Home Cash Code program" he said. "Normally, rich people keep the secrets to their wealth to themselves. 
Trump has not hidden his affection for Ms. Taylor. He has recently been praising her on social media for her efforts to teach regular people how to create amazing wealththeir spare time.
We investigated the claims made by Mr. Trump and Ms. Taylor, and what we found is nothing short of amazing.

AFTER THE 2016 ELECTION


President-Elect Trump releases his new Program to help Americans earn wealth.

He’s earned MILLIONS - HE WANTS YOU TO DO THE SAME!
By Michael Pearson, Faith Karimi and Joe SuttonCNN

CNN) — Speaking before a packed auditorium Donald Trump revealed the secret economic plan behind his "Make America Great Again" initiative. "It's no secret that the Average American is earning less today than they were before the 2008 recession." Stated Mr. Trump. "The reason is simple. There are people who know how to make money very easily, and they've rigged the system for themselves without sharing their secrets with people who really need it."
"I'm going to change all that" Mr. Trump added...

Mr, Trump says the best opportunity available is a new program called Internet Profit which teaches regular people to take advantage of this massive internet opportunity quickly and easily, and even places them with real online companies that pay them for their time completing simple tasks.
"Heather Smith is absolutely changing the world with her Internet Profit program" he said. "Normally, rich people keep the secrets to their wealth to themselves. But Sara, she has found an amazing opportunity, and she is sharing it with everyone. That's incredible."
Trump has not hidden his affection for Ms. Smith. He has recently been praising her on social media for her efforts to teach regular people how to create amazing wealth in their spare time.

We investigated the claims made by Mr. Trump and Ms. Smith, and what we found is nothing short of amazing. This LIMITED TIME PROGRAM is only available through this SPECIAL PROGRAM - Trump is sharing his secrets for a DRASTICALLY REDUCED sign up fee.


Now you may notice that:

Both programs are marketed the same way, but are identified by different names. Further, one uses FOX NEWS AND THE OTHER CNN AS THE "SOURCE" OF THE REPORT. Doing this as a PRIVATE CITIZEN IS BAD ENOUGH, BUT TO USE THE TERM "PRESIDENT-ELECT" IS DESPICABLE.

THE QUESTION IS THIS: WHY WAS THIS INFORMATION NEVER USED BY SENATE DEMOCRATS AGAINST DONALD TRUMP, EITHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE 2016 ELECTION?







HOW HAVE WE COME TO THIS? THE INCOMPETENCE, IRRATIONALITY, CRIMINALITY, AND BETRAYAL THAT HAS LEAD THE U.S. TO EDGE OF THE ABYSS. PT 3. GIVING UP THE SUPREME COURT.

The journey the U.S. has taken to become a FASCIST STATE ACTUALLY STARTED BEFORE DONALD TRUMP ENTERED THE PICTURE. However, it gives us a glimpse into the future, by revealing the following: IF SENATE DEMOCRATS WOULD NOT OPPOSE THE UNCONSTITUTIONAL BEHAVIOR OF MITCH MCCONNELL, WHO REFUSED TO ALLOW BARACK OBAMAS SUPREME COURT NOMINEE MERRICK GARLAND A CHANCE TO TESTIFY BEFORE  U.S. SENATE AND RECEIVE A PUBLIC VOTE ON HIS NOMINATION, HOW COULD YOU RELY ON THEM TO PROPERLY EXECUTE ANY PART OF THEIR DUTIES WHILE IN OFFICE




ANSWER: YOU COULD NOT RELY ON THEM FOR ANYTHING. THIS WAS A REALIZATION THAT THE REPUBLICAN/FASCIST PARTY USED TO THEIR ADVANTAGE.

HOW HAVE WE COME TO THIS? THE INCOMPETENCE, IRRATIONALITY, CRIMINALITY, AND BETRAYAL THAT HAS LEAD THE U.S. TO EDGE OF THE ABYSS. PT 2.





IN A PAST ARTICLE I WROTE THE FOLLOWING: 

THE INCREDULOUS ATTITUDE THAT DEMOCRATS, PROGRESSIVES, LIBERALS, INDEPENDENTS, AND A FEW REPUBLICANS SEEM TO HAVE WHEN DONALD TRUMP SAYS AND/OR DOES OUTRAGEOUS THINGS.

EXPLANATION:

HIS BEHAVIOR IS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE OPPOSITION BEING SO INDECISIVE OR TIMID, THAT HE AND TOP LEVEL REPUBLICANS HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE DESIRE TO AVOID CONFRONTATION, OR RISK OFFENDING ANYONE THAT MIGHT DISAGREE WITH THEIR OPINION, LIMITS THE INFLUENCE THAT THEY HAVE INFORMING PUBLIC POLICY.

TODAYS DONALD TRUMP IS WHAT HE WAS ALLOWED TO BECOME...    

I WOULD LIKE TO ALTER THIS CONCLUSION, DUE TO RECENT EVENTS AND PAST BEHAVIOR. THE ABOVE PHRASE IS STILL ACCURATE, AND INDECISIVE AND TIMID BEHAVIOR BY THE OPPOSITION STILL HOLDS TRUE TO A CERTAIN DEGREE, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THE FOLLOWING:

THAT THE U.S. SENATE, BOTH REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRAT, HAVE CREATED A SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS DONALD TRUMP TO MAKE DECISIONS AND CREATE POLICIES WITHOUT ANY REAL FEAR OF SHORT TERM CONSEQUENCES TO HIM, OR MEMBERS OF HIS ADMINISTRATION. 

TIME AND TIME AGAIN, FROM THE ONSET OF HIS CANDIDACY, SOME OF DONALD TRUMPS MOST EGREGIOUS BEHAVIOR HAS EITHER BEEN DOWNPLAYED, OR IGNORED ENTIRELY. GIVEN THE REPUBLICAN PARTIES DECISION TO EMBRACE RACISM, RELIGIOUS INTOLERANCE, HOMOPHOBIA, ANTI-SCIENCE LEGISLATION, AND XENOPHOBIA, HIS BEHAVIOR IS HARDLY SHOCKING. IT IS THE DEMOCRATS RESPONSE,(MAINLY THE U.S. SENATE), THAT MAKES LITTLE SENSE, IF THE DESIRE IS TO PROTECT AMERICAN CITIZENS FROM THE FASCIST AGENDA TRUMP PUSHES AT EVERY TURN. 

DO YOU RECALL THE FOLLOWING QUOTE FROM JOHN MILTON: 
"They also serve who only stand and wait."


IN THIS CASE, I WOULD LIKE TO ALTER IT A LITTLE:

"THEY ALSO SERVE WHO STAND, SAY, AND DO NOTHING."
