Cri de Coeur Two

Green Bay

A WikiTorial 

There have been so many mean-spirited, derogatory remarks made by him during the last few months that it has been hard to figure out his true thoughts or ideas. That’s assuming that he actually has any real foundational thoughts and ideas. Could what he says and tweets possibly be his beliefs?

I don’t understand how a person of such a low human quotient is tolerated, even adored and worshiped, by such a large portion of Americans. That portion stands firm at about 32-40%!

The fact that we have a president who uses childish, mean-spirited nicknames for those who differ with or oppose his words and actions, but is not taken to the principal’s office for a good talking to or even a paddling by his idolizing pack, is beyond my comprehension.

When, as yesterday, at a campaign rally in Green Bay, Trump took aim at the federal law enforcement community, referring to some ousted FBI and Justice Department officials “scum” his devotees screamed with delight.

 And, when he announced that “We're sending many of them to sanctuary cities, thank you very much," 'They're not too happy about it. I'm proud to tell you that was actually my sick idea", his admiring throng roared their approval of his sick threat of sending immigrants to sanctuary cities.

For about an hour and a half, our president, the ostensible leader of the free world made fun of Sleepy Joe, Crazy Bernie and Pocahontas, cajoled his faithful and unbelievably falsely stated…"The baby is born. The mother meets with the doctor. They take care of the baby, they wrap the baby beautifully. And then the doctor and the mother determine whether or not they will execute the baby." The masses roared their approval of his words.

According to the Washington Post, he lied 61 times during a 90 minute harangue in Green Bay. That put him over the top of 10,000 lies during his presidency. And to think that the NYT and other publications debated whether or not to use the word ‘lie’ when reporting on him at the beginning of his reign. Really, why would anyone believe anything he says?

For a couple of hours, 10,000 Americans from Wisconsin, the home of both Progressive Robert La Follett and  demagogue Sen Joseph McCarthy, stamped their feet, clapped their hands and roared their approval of a man who has made it clear that he is the American incarnation of Vladimir Putin and Benito Mussolini.

Donald Trump’s election in November 2016 has created an unprecedented situation in the United States… an American President who aspires to make the United States a partner in the ongoing international assault on democracy.

By his continual use of the negative politics of victimization and fear of marginalization and by creating collective enemies such as Muslims, and dark-skinned immigrants, he continues to foster a climate of fear and hatred among his rabid adherents. He continues, non stop, in dividing our country which will lead only to more violence, death and national division.

He has become an evil, malevolent force willing to say and do anything to retain power and through his policies, shovel wealth into the hands of a very small portion of our citizenry.

But, he is not the only one in power, not the only would-be autocratic force seeking to bring about a 21^st Century authoritarian regime in America. He is abetted and supported by the entire Republican power elite in Congress as well as a small percentage of the uber-rich, greedy, self-serving, America-be-damned, Fake Patriotic American business leaders. They and a contingent of evangelicals are all acting in perfect concert with our Dear Leader to achieve his inhumane and dangerous policies.

Some Republicans have left the party in disappointment and/or disgust so that those individuals who remain in the 2019 Republican Party support him at the high rate of about 85-90%. That’s astounding to me…90% of Republicans support such a malicious threat to our democratic society. What are these people thinking?

What kind of American citizens are those who still support an authoritarian, wannabe tyrant? Are we destined to live in a country in which 30-40% of the citizenry is composed of a combination of uneducated, easily swayed, bigots and racists who are low-information, anti-science voters so greedy in their business dealings that clean water, soil and air are secondary to earning a few more bucks than they’ll ever be able to spend?

Will we, as a nation, even survive intact if the Republican Party blindly kow tows to a person seemingly totally devoid of humanity and empathy and who never laughs or smiles in genuine cheerfulness and humor?

And, last week he declared that he would not accept any subpoenas from Congress at all…for his taxes, immigration policies or security clearance explanation. That would mean that he has complete dictatorial powers over his policies in that there can be no oversight.

For an average person in America who works, cares for his or her family and engages with the community, it’s impossible to keep up with the constant flow of lies and chicanery emanating from his mouth, Twitter Fingers or the sycophantic acolytes in his administration.

We all have to do something to save our country, our community and in the end, ourselves. We all must question and respond to his vitriolic, hatred of ‘the other’ and answer his childish flights of made up stories that he recites daily.

We need everyone that cares for this country’s future to wield a pen, paint a picture, write a song, use their legal and scientific background and compose on their keyboards to refute his lies and shine light upon the darkness that he is spreading across the globe.  

We need to talk, to listen and to try to understand one another in order to bring an ignominious end to his reign of madness.
