I abhor politics.\u00a0 donald trump {capitalization intended} brings home why.<\/p>\n
trump, a small-minded vindictive bigot with a vastly oversized ego, has assumed a very big office, which he is using as a bully-pulpit as he proceeds to blatantly disregard various core foundations of the US Constitution.<\/p>\n
The U.S.A is supposed to be a country in which Freedom of Speech is a constitutionally guaranteed right.\u00a0 Not according to trump, who has already issued executive orders that attempt to remove this right from crucial governmental agencies and their officials whose findings are at odds with his desires.\u00a0 trump has just attempted to gag the EPA and the USDA. \u00a0 He has also attempted to have the FDA gag the press by denying press passes to reporters who air undesirable views.\u00a0 Yes, another constitutional foundation toppled, namely infringing on the Freedom of the Press.<\/p>\n
Welcome to censorship<\/strong><\/span>, a system of governmental control with which I already have firsthand knowledge<\/a>.\u00a0 Do you think censorship is about saving children from seeing things you don’t want them to see?\u00a0 If you do, you are wrong on a myriad levels.\u00a0 Censorship is about controlling access to information<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0 trump doesn’t want the citizens of this country to be well-informed, he wants them to see only what he wants them to see.\u00a0 And what trump wants them to see has very little to do with fact.\u00a0 Unless of course that fact is an “alternative fact<\/em><\/a><\/strong>” of his manufacture. “In leveling this attack, the president and Mr. Spicer made a series of false statements.<\/em>” – New York Times.\u00a0 Read the New York Time article, it presents clear, indisputable evidence of the actual facts, and of the false statements.<\/p>\n In case you don’t know what a “false statement<\/em><\/strong>” is, I will tell you – it is a LIE<\/em><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n trump is a liar<\/strong><\/span>.\u00a0 Period.\u00a0 Full-Stop.\u00a0 The End.\u00a0 And that is not an alternative fact<\/em>, it is an indisputable one.<\/p>\n In light of the fact that trump lost the democratic vote by around 2.9 million votes<\/a> I will never acknowledge him as a legitimately elected president.\u00a0 Another term comes to mind for trump…\u00a0 our new f\u00fchrer<\/a> has further violated the constitution by refusing to place his personal holdings into a blind trust during his tenure in office.\u00a0 Indeed he went on a spending spree after<\/strong> becoming president-elect, establishing multiple companies in various foreign<\/strong> countries.\u00a0 The conflict of interests this creates is so self-evident I see no point in further investigating it – indeed, it is already obvious trump supporters are incapable of countenancing the truth about their f\u00fchrer.<\/p>\n F\u00fchrer, I use that term intentionally.\u00a0 As I stated in a post written almost a year<\/a> ago, the similarities between trump and Hitler are frighteningly obvious.\u00a0 My youngest daughter and I were discussing the Nazi regime, in particular how such unbelievable cruelty could go unchecked.\u00a0 I suspect the majority of Germans knew nothing about the Holocaust until long after the war ended.\u00a0 I suspect they were\u00a0 victims of rampant unchecked governmental censorship, along with a steady diet of alternative facts<\/strong>.<\/em> I suspect the fascists controlled everything the German people thought they knew.<\/p>\n
