In case you are not aware, maybe you like to disassociate yourself from the abuse of political hate mongering on this day that is traditionally considered to be one of our holiest, a day for peace and joy and football, the president of the United States has sent all of us a Truth Social Merry Christmas wish. That’s right. All of us. Even, as his post continued, the radical left scum. Appropriate for the season, I guess he is in forgiving mode, despite some confusion. I mean he is wishing radical left scum a Merry Christmas. That’s kind of nice of him, in that it is a wish for a merry Christmas, even though he thinks the nation is harboring some people who are scum and it is the domain of the radical left. I don’t consider myself to be radical, and really, I think you would have to label me centrist, maybe even centrist right. In theory I guess I am not included in the scum category. So, also nice. But I am also pretty sure he would not like me if he met me, because I think he is a loudmouth degenerate prick.
That’s for starters. To me there seems to be something wrong with him up in the old bell tower. He is old. He does tend to nod off right in the middle of meetings and such. But hell, I’m just a year younger than he is and will admit I am a fitful sleeper, but if I was still working I am pretty sure if my job required I pay attention to proceedings I could at least accomplish that. It’s the disjointed rantings that are the big reveal as far as I am concerned. Whether it happens during his rally blovations or social media tirades, that stuff is just not normal. Especially for someone who is supposed to be the leader of the nation. So much of it is outright bullshit, insulting and racial disparagement, or just plain crazy nonsense.
OK. There’s more. He has turned the Oval Office into a money making machine for him and his family. Pay to play should be incorporated into his official presidential seal. Jesus Christ I can’t believe all the grifting. All the tacky shit he hawks, the political fund scams, presidential pardons for donors, emoluments violations left and right, including a half billion dollar “gift” from the Saudis that is actually nothing more than a vailed bribe and will cost American taxpayers a billion dollars to securely retrofit. And don’t get me started on crypto. That stuff has easily vaulted him into the league of multi-billionaires, and perfectly so for a grifting self centered narcicist- through a currency transaction system rank with money laundering, cybercrime, proliferate scams that is highly volatile and can very well provide investors with nothing but significant finacial ruin. He has already taken advantage of people with his meme coins. As the issuer, he can’t lose, but many unfortunate purchasers have taken it in the shorts.
It’s all about him, it will always be all about him and sadly congresss is willing to grant him his all. What’s worse, he has managed to eliminate most of the combersome oversight of his scheming ambitions. Government inspectors general have been eliminated or replaced with loyalists. And many of his cronies and cabinet members are extremely happy scooping up the spoils he generously rewards them with for that loyalty.
And now he can’t seem to get enough of blowing shit up or conducting demolition parties. Goodbye East Wing and the Lincoln suite bathroom. Hello gaudy White House gold medalions and embelishments that jolt the eyeballs. Paradoxily, he can not restrain himself from plastering his name on anything in his field of vision, conduct much like many members of the animal kingdom performing ritualistic urine marking. WTF!
A lot of this seems to be machinations to keep everyone distracted from the looming fallout of the Epstein files. To keep pushing his justice department cronies to stonewall the file’s release as much as it has surley indicates there is something far worse for Trump embeded within them than the criticism endured for stalling. Will we ever get to see the totality of the material? Will there be a very opportunistic explosion leveling the building that houses the documents? Was Epstein murdered?
Who knows at this point. Trump is one lucky son of a bitch. His repulsive narcissistic, amoral, racial, misgynisitc conduct somehow does not bother much of American society. I have never understood that. Because he is rich and powerful, he has escaped legal consequences for his actions, a product of our two tiered judicial system of due prosess that favors those with means and is denied the less fortunate. There is rumoring among congressional members heavily involved in the Epstein drama suggesting it will bring the ultimate end to Trumpism. I’ll believe it when I see it.
Remember, merry is just another word for shit-faced, and staying merry has propelled us through the Trump administrations. So Merry Christmas to all, especailly to my fellow scum dwellers, and hopeful dreams of returning sanity in the coming year.
