Wednesday, June 27, 2018:   Republican Mid-Term Election Strategy: They Are As Bad As Us.
One of the Republican election strategies for this year's mid-terms is almost a joke. They have been working on it subtly for several years but I expect it will come out in full force over the next couple of months. Their message is simply this… "The Democrats are as bad as us, so why change your vote?" It sounds stupid, but I am sure it will appear logical to many of the clueless swing voters.


Tuesday, June 26, 2018:   Trump's Immigration Policy: Make American White Again!
Let's call it what it is – blatant racism. The immigration ban and the wall are Trump's vain attempt at keeping power in the hands of white, Anglo-Saxon, Fascists. Diversity is their enemy and they are willing to go to any inhumane length to maintain "white supremacy". They are too stupid to realize they have already lost and their policies will only inflame and embolden those who see them as violating basic human rights as a means to their end.

Trump's bumper sticker reads: God, Guts, and Guns Made America Free "of Indians".


Monday, June 25, 2018:   Coined By Hitler and Goebbels, Practiced By Trump And His Cronies
"Make the lie big, keep it simple, keep saying it and eventually they will believe it" or at least Trump's lap dog supporters will.

Wake up folks, on the fascist clock we are at 11:59:59. The fascists are in control of the executive branch, the legislative branch, the Supreme Court, many of the state governments, and they are working their way down the federal court system.


Sunday, June 17, 2018:   The Eight Amendment to the U.S. Constitution
Let's stop quoting the bible and start adhering to the rule of law and the U.S. constitution. Christ didn't write the bible and he would never approve of a government that separated parents from children.

Our constitution is filled with checks and balances specifically designed to prevent Nazi's like Trump from executing a fascist agenda. Crossing the U.S. border is a misdemeanor. Even if we consider immigrants seeking asylum as criminals, should our treatment of them not be governed by the same principals embodied in our constitution?

Amendment VIII
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Separating parents and children is the epitome of cruel and unusual punishment.



Friday, June 15, 2018:   Really? This Is Our Enemy?

Immigrant
The heavily armed Trump Gestapo strikes again.

From April 19 through May 31, ICE separated just under 2,000 children from their parents. Wow, that really makes this country a safer place. I think it is time to deport the bunch of assholes running this country. I am sure that Honduras would be a great destination for them.


Thursday, June 14, 2018:   Today's Axis of Evil
The "axis of evil" is back, but now the U.S. is a member of this nefarious group and probably its leader. Think about it. Trump has aligned himself with and praised the world's greatest despots. Putin is his bestie. In Trump's own words "Look at Putin -- what he's doing with Russia -- I mean, you know, what's going on over there. I mean this guy has done -- whether you like him or don't like him -- he's doing a great job in rebuilding the image of Russia and also rebuilding Russia period". Trump has a long-established track record of fondness for the autocratic Russian leader.

And now there is Kim, the North Korean version of a Russian nesting doll. Trump had nothing but praise. "Great personality and very smart. Good combination. He's a worthy negotiator. He's negotiating on behalf of his people, a very worthy, very smart negotiator, absolutely. And we had a terrific day, and we learned a lot about each other and about our countries.

But that isn't all. On Duterte of the Philippines he said, "I just wanted to congratulate you because I am hearing of the unbelievable job on the drug problem." Yep, the guy is out shooting Philippine citizens on streets.

How about President Erdogan of Turkey who cracked down on Turkish civil society, the media and his opponents.? Trump's comment on this jerk, "Frankly, he's getting very high marks."

But that is not all. After President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi seized power in a coup that resulted in major human rights violations, Trump's comment on el-Sisi was "I just want to let everybody know in case there was any doubt that we are very much behind President el-Sisi. He's done a fantastic job in a very difficult situation."

Meanwhile the Trumpster is pissing off every one of our allies. The latest being Canada with his tweets on Justin Trudeau for which the Canadian Parliament unanimously condemned Trump.

The question is now "how low can we go?"
