By now, we all know that whenever something goes wrong, the Tangerine Terrorist will immediately blame somebody, anybody else. Even though he wants to be ‘the guy’ in charge of everything. The buck, obviously, does not stop with him.
Why does TT do this? Because he is a weak, stupid man in a powerful position. He lacks the intellect to know what even W knew: appoint smart, competent people who know how to run things. Well, with the exception of ‘Heckuva job, Brownie.’
TT cannot stand to have his own intelligence challenged by anyone. He surrounds himself with sycophants because his ego is tied to the idea that because he inherited (and squandered) a vast fortune, he must be intelligent. He is not intelligent. He is not as rich as he portrays himself to be. And, he is not even smart enough to orchestrate a believable cover-up of either fact.
We deserve a president who accepts blame when stuff goes wrong. We deserve a president who apologizes for his mistakes. We deserve a president who does not lie. We deserve a president who preserves and protects the laws of this country.
TT’s ego cannot be wrong at any time and he has to lie because he is wrong so much of the time. He cannot follow laws because then he would be wrong even more of the time than he is already.
Why can’t we have nice things in this country? Well, Congressional Republicans refuse to do their job of holding TT to account. If they are afraid of being ya that there are worse things in life than having to compete for a job. Like having to use social services because federal minimum wage has been artificially depressed by Republicans at $7.25/hr for decades (it should be at $30/hr). Is it any surprise that most of the states with this low minimum wage are also in the South, in states that take more federal dollars than they give? You know, the states that have were only briefly slave-free but have now figured out legalize wage slavery. It’s as if Republicans from states like this are … welfare queens!
Perhaps it’s because all those Republicans are so afraid of losing their government health benefits? Well, they have all the power to make those same benefits available to every citizens all the time. Again, most of the Republicans who are against universal (single payer, socialized … I know the differences in terms and differences to pay for everything, so, I’ll be ignoring your quibbles in comments) healthcare coverage are in the states that also adhere to wage slavery and are most afraid of TT.
Weird, isn’t it? The states with the most repressed wages, no real economic drivers aside from living off government payments, holding tight as a tick to a white supremacist fascist and his co-president who has only made money by taking billions in government money. I mean, it’s as if TT and his South African immigrant co-president can only turn a profit by taking government money, cheating on their taxes and relying on wage slavery. Weak business men who, of course, have to be fascists because their egos are so intertwined with their fake successes.
I have no idea why the Republican Party has capitulated to TT and his followers. I have no idea on how to get Republican legislators to actually do their jobs.
I do know that the Democratic Party needs to oppose everything TT and his followers want to do to this country, it’s government and it’s people. I also know that most of us do not want such buffoonish villains in charge of anything. And I further know that when we all work together, we can accomplish amazing things.
Oppose everything TT does by breaking everything down into more manageable pieces so more of us can work on the general problem of TT’s ability to spew so much in such little time.
Use parlimentary and oratory skills in both Houses of Congress to stop harmful, derogatory and/or hateful legislation. Do not assist the Republican representatives who follow TT in getting any of their insane agenda enacted. Shut down Congress when necessary.
Remind TT and his Republican lackies of their hourly, daily, weekly, monthly failures.
Teamwork makes the dream work. When all of our team speaks how they work against all of TT’s weidness, all at once, turn his one-man barker show back on him with a symphony of resistance. Turn the volume up to 11.
Do not obey in advance.
Illegitimi non carborundum.
