Are the scientists idiots or….

The current president has appeared on video saying that Dr. Fauci and the other experts are idiots. Trump continuously makes you wonder who are the people that think he is good for the country. Trump says what he is about; being a dictator, not taking care of Americans, and blaming others when things go wrong. Every person of stature has called this election as critical to saving the republic and limiting the damage being done to our futures by this administration. Yet Trump continues to sell people on being selfish and hateful. He asks his followers to believe his lies and he will harm the people that they want hurt in America. He also threatens to endanger or imprison anyone that he is unhappy with, a topic he continuously explores as an outcome of presidential power. Research what is happening in America today and vote your conscious.

Is Trump planning to go to Russia if he loses?

It is being reported that Trump is threatening to leave the country if he loses the election. Is he planning to go to Russia? It would make sense if he did. The unexplained money that he owes and resources that he used to expand his business have been reported to come from Russians. If he were acting as a foreign agent while in office and had earned bonuses he could collect them in Russia without worrying about trials, FBI, or IRS agents. Trump has done a lot of work that is benefiting others more than American citizens. Our republic has been attacked in a variety of ways by the current administration. It cannot all be random, a crime wave, or the rantings of a mentally addled person that so much from the Oval Office has damaged America. As Americans and human beings we look to make sense of the world around us. Trump trying to run to a foreign country would bring a horrific sense of closure to a long nightmare.

The voting has started in the most important elections of our lives

Notice that the title is the most important elections of our lives; plural and not singular. Every voter needs to realize that it is not just about Trump, but the Republican Party that has enabled our current reality to exist. Trump and his administration have been on a four year spree with no accountability while Republicans are still after Hillary Clinton’s emails. Four years ago Republicans said a new Supreme Court justice should not even be considered while primary elections took place, and now they are pushing a selection after general elections have started. Americans are seeing politicians and leaders lie, cheat, and steal on a massive scale; America is at an inflection election and will normalize kleptocracy or re-animate our republic. If Joe Biden wins he will need a Senate and House of Representatives to do anything substantial like healthcare. Gerrymandering and police abuse will continue if state representatives, mayors, city councils, district attorneys, and other local politicians are not focused on respect and justice for all citizens. Learn about the candidates and issues then vote up and down the ballot in 2020, and every election!

Why don’t Republicans stand up?

Donald Trump is an outrageous criminal liar who doesn’t care about much beyond himself. Anyone with an ounce of intelligence knows that the current president is unfit to hold any office. The real question are the motives of all Republican office holders and voters for Trump. In the face of growing evil why do these people stick with a monstrous effort to destroy America and any semblance of law and order? The outrages and assaults on the Constitution are too numerous to name, but Trump supporters in the Senate, Fox “News”, and state houses across the country remain. Many Democrats are shocked that the hatred is this intense, but the reality is clear and every American must be ready to stand for what they believe in. I hope that the vote against the current regime is overwhelming and that we start to move toward civility as a country. Every American should hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 2020!

Extremists start to act on Trump’s suggestions

The news that the governor of Michigan was the target of a plot to kidnap and murder her is appalling. I wrote a thriller (Centurion Crew available at Amazon) based on a fictional president using racists militias to overthrow the republic. When I wrote the book I was thinking of worst case scenarios, but the headlines keep walking closer to my plot. It is uncomfortable to live in times when unstable people actively seek power while spouting evil thoughts and ideas. So far we have had elements of the government uphold their allegiance to the Constitution. I pray that reality does not mirror fiction. Tom Clancy said “The difference between fiction and reality is that fiction has to make sense.”. Let’s vote and work to make sure the good guys win, and America helps to save the world from Climate Change and evil.

Huffing and puffing at the White House

It was a frightening to see the current president seeming like he was trying to look normal while clearly struggling with normal functioning. I am not a fan of the current administration, but I do not like to see people struggling with reality. Our great country has achieved its status due to educated citizens and leadership making smart moves. We are in a position today that we have rarely been in; looking like idiots on the world stage. The president will hopefully pull through his current infection, but he clearly is placing others and the country at risk by his behavior. Denial is not a strategy, and certainly is not worthy of the greatest nation in the world. Trump has failed on a massive scale and it is important that as many people as possible recognize his failure for what it is. Vote for the Biden/Harris ticket to get our great country back on the path to global leadership and recovery!

Trump is finally taking it seriously

I don’t like even appearing to be joyful at the suffering of another human being. I hope that Trump recovers from COVID-19 and learns a lesson as he retires to private life and faces overdue accountability in 2021. The president has been a poster boy for entitlement and white privilege as he shows no empathy for people that he does not need. A Trump administration spokesperson has stated that he is taking COVID-19 seriously which is new for everyone paying attention the last 6 months. Trump even clowned Joe Biden for wearing a mask at Tuesday’s debate as he and his family wore none. Trump’s personal tribulation in catching the coronavirus should be a clear notice to everyone that he is unfit to continue as president. Research and vote to end the abomination of the Trump administration in 2020!

S*@#show Debate

Trump showed himself to be a true threat to America at Tuesday nights debate. He lies, creates threats to minority citizens and every decent person, blocks the truth, and generally attacks our republic. It seems like desperation from Trump, but he has always been high energy as he sold his lies and created an alternate reality. My question remains the same; “Who supports this guy and what do you think you will get?”. Every major figure who is respectable has announced warnings that our future as a republic is at stake in the coming election. Racists and fascists rally to Trump because they recognize he is one of them. Trump continues to attack our process of selecting leaders. He is trying to block what he believes is the will of the people; a Biden presidency. Trump’s behavior lines up with an evil fictional president in my book Centurion Crew (available at Amazon). Tell everyone you know to vote for Joe Biden to save our republic!

Trump Tax Cut

The term Trump tax cut has taken on new meaning after the New York Times report on his tax records. Trump has not changed in the time he has been president and you have to wonder what is going on in the minds of his supporters. It has to be hard to support an amoral man who thinks you are stupid for believing in him. Trump’s records reveal the extreme nature of his white privilege and complete lack of character. He gave himself a tax cut every year and let the country increase its debt burden and pull the money from hardworking honest citizens. Every voter has to ask themselves is this who you want as your president at a time of heightening crisis? Research and vote in 2020!

Is it about Trump, or his supporters?

There is a lot of talk about Donald Trump and the chaos he brings to the United States, but the problem is not he and his perversity; it is the people who support what he is doing. Trump repeatedly lies to, and mocks his supporters who regularly show up to be infected with COVID-19 at his rallies. The question that comes to mind is why do they do it? What is driving them to support a man who does not respect them, and attacks their fellow citizens? Do these people want to walk over the corpses of their countrymen to elevated status due to racism? Do they hate their country as it is now? Do Trump’s people live in a different reality than everyone else due to news channels, conservative radio, and social media? There is a lot of speculation about what drives Trump supporters to remain faithful to a man viewed as a threat to the republic, but they stay loyal to what many view as a proven conman. Research and vote in 2020 like your life depends on it, because it does.
