Revealing Trump For What He is
The emperor has no clothes, but I guess the hard-core supporters of President Trump will never see that fact. I am sorry — I am not trying to offend anyone — but Trump’s self-serving ego and all the lying with misconception or misdirection is now being totally exposed.
The Trump presidency is like the Discovery channel reality show called “Naked and Afraid.” Trump has been sent to the swamp to wander about. Everyone who has any contact with him has a piece of the swamp muck upon them too (19 indictments and counting now). I guess instead of eliminating the swamp, Trump has transformed himself into the “Swamp Thing” — green with money and mucky with corruption.
When we listen to him, we hear the belief that all the opposition is out to get him — it is a conspiracy by the Democrats, by sexual affair partners or victims, by the “Deep State” and by the free independent press — all to destroy poor little ol’ Donald. However, now we are able to see it all, should we wish to look. Thank God there are those protective blurred pixels to present some appearance of decency concerning his total exposure. Guess what, those pixels are about to be removed by Special Counsel Robert Mueller or the many civil court cases concerning him.
The emperor really has no clothes. The bank fraud, the government corruption, the dysfunction and the immorality is beginning to peal supporters away — little by little, slowly. First, “Lady Decency” will take the evangelicals away, then “Lady Truth” will take the mainline Republicans away and then “Lady Economy” will take away his rust-belt supporters. Later, “Lady Justice” could actually take the presidency from him if our republic can survive him. Yes, the ladies are his real downfall! I’m not the type of person to yell “Lock him up!” I believe in the law and justice — unlike Trump supporters.
For the Republican Party’s sake, I hope Trump can be replaced by Vice President Mike Pence, but for the American people’s sake, I hope there will be a big blue wave in November — if the Russians, the NRA, the white supremacists and the Koch brothers will allow it. The state of our union is being drastically shattered into pieces because of Trump’s indecent exposure of his immorality these days. When a pornographic star appears more ethical than the president of the United States, something is wrong.
