Fascist Is As Fascist Does
August 11, 2021
“Just say the
election is corrupt and leave the rest to me and the Republicans in Congress.”*
Donald Turmp
December 27, 2020, pressuring acting Attorney
General
Jeffrey Rosen to aid and abet his burgeoning coup attempt
“You guys may not be
following the internet the way I do.”*
Turmp’s
continued attempt to sway Rosen by insisting…
wait for
it…that he knows more than anyone else
You might by now have forgotten all about the previous White House resident. No doubt you have tried, like Sisyphus, to push the poisonous bulk out of your conscious awareness. Unfortunately, the scars are too deep and too wide, to budge very far. Or, if you are fortunate enough and persistent enough and strong enough to push it some distance toward your goal, you will in time see it roll right back to where it started.
In any event, some things should not be forgotten, lest the possible
lessons available also become lost. So it is with the Orange Sickness. The one
thing that should, and seems to be on the wane, is Turmp’s malignant influence
on the zeitgeist. His blog failed miserably, his Sexual Abuserpalooza tour with
Billo Reilley is flopping worse than what was planned for Springtime For
Hitler: A Gay Romp With Adolf and Eva at Berchtesgaden, and the candidates
he has backed (with his fat mouth, but none of the funds he has been grifting
from his angry, white cult victims, allegedly to help elect pro-Turmp morons),
are dropping like flies at a Raid party. For his part, Turmp is back out on the
white power rally circuit, testing the waters for raising money for another
presidential run, if not in fact for actually running. But wouldn’t that be his
third term since he is still president serving his second term? And isn’t that
unconstitutional?
Nonetheless, Turmp is doing his best to fight his way back into
relevance. And so, we must continue to remind ourselves, however unpleasant and
painful, of some of his malfeasance – past and present. So, forgive me this
foray back into the dark cloud that has yet to sufficiently dissipate. Lest we
forget.
Lock Them Up
As the first wave of COVID patients began to burgeon, Turmp wanted to
send them to Guantanamo Bay, “That’s like some kind of resort, right? They’ll
love it there. The weather’s beautiful, not as nice a Mor-on Lago, but very
good, I hear.” He asked, “Don’t we have an island that we own?”* Adding, “I’m
pretty sure we have an island, like one of those surrounded by water, big
water, somewhere.”**
They Shoot Black Folks, Don’t They
Turmp also tried to convince the military to shoot peaceful protesters. On
multiple occasions inside the White House, Trump reportedly suggested shooting
protesters. He also told members of his administration that he wanted the
military to “beat the fuck out of” the protesters. When his insane, illegal
idea met with displeasure from his human underlings he conceded some ground,
“Well, shoot them in the leg — or maybe
the foot. That's how you're supposed to handle these people. Crack their
skulls!”* adding, “If you won’t do it I’ll do it myself. Nobody will even
notice if I shoot somebody. And no one knows more about cracking some skulls
than Turmp. I’ve cracked many skulls in my day. Everybody knows that.”**
Turmp reportedly wanted to invoke the Insurrection Act on the day of his pathetic Bible-pandering event (as if he has ever opened one), after having the peaceful protesters in Lafayette Park violently cleared for his walk of shame. I guess since he was talked out of invoking the Insurrection Act for peaceful protesters, he decided to lead his own violent insurrection instead. Maybe he just likes the word ‘insurrection.’ He keeps using that word; it does not mean what he thinks it means.
*This one is real.
**Actually, I added this.
I. Mangrey reporting. And
making some shit up.
