In the path of the storm (Not Harvey)

August 28, 2017

He’s just tall, that’s just about all. And ignorant. He is also arrogant and petty. And horribly abusive; let’s not forget that. Oh, and I almost left out – pathologically dishonest, can’t forget that one. Alright, so he’s not just tall, he has a number of other traits. He is a thug, a crook and a racist. And he is not just doing this to be popular. Chrump’s father was arrested at a Klan rally. The Chrumps discriminated against minorities looking to live in their buildings in the ‘70s. Other than that, I hear he never beats his wife…physically.

Jack of All Tirades

When Chrump is not busy smacking the Earth around, he is frantically working (such as it is) on protecting white people, including Nazis, the KKK, white supremacists, white nationalists – many sides. Many sides. Sticking up for these folks is just the beginning. He gave a big wet kiss to radical white terrorists by pardoning “Sheriff” Joe Arpaio who was convicted of criminal contempt of court as the crowning achievement of years as one of America’s most racist sheriffs. In case anyone was unsure of Chrump’s support for fascism and racism, he made his position crystal-clear by pardoning Arpaio.

Others are finally accepting that Chrump is exactly what he has been showing us that he is. Many people are beginning to publicly express their chagrin at our alt-right president. Rabbis who participate in an annual Jewish High Holiday phone call with the President have decided to cancel. The main reason? Because he loves the KKK, Nazis and White Nationalists and has filled the White House with these folks. But the official reason: because he supports "those who advocate anti-Semitism, racism and xenophobia."

One need only win the Electoral College vote by amassing less than 80,000 strategically placed votes (via continued massive minority voter suppression) while losing the popular vote by over 3,000,000) to obtain all the powers and privileges that granted to the presidency.

Hurricane Harvey, though devastating, seems to have spared Texas its worst. Unfortunately, Washington, DC remains bogged down in a Category 5 deluge of hot air known as Global Depression Donald. With sustained destructive tweets of up to 140 characters, and filth storms gusting up to 200 miles an hour. Of the two storms, recovery from Harvey will be much easier.

In one day Chrump pardoned Arpaio, doubled down on screwing over transgender people in the military, and jettisoned another white supremacist or nazi, or whatever Sebastian Gorka is (while leaving his equally dangerous wife in her job at Homeland Security). Chrump attempted to time all of this to go under the radar by doing it, not only on a Friday, but the Friday on which Hurricane Harvey was bearing down on Texas. He did wish everyone in Texas “good luck” as he ran away from the press after exiting Air Force One.

The good news is…
