Nazi loving Traitor-in-Chief!
I wrote that some seven years ago when I first posted the image above. Later I went on to mark the similarities between Hitler's beer hall putsch of 1923 and Trump's beer belly putsch of 2020. In both cases these attempts to overthrow the government led to our respective countries willfully voting against democracy in favor of tyrants. I called it but, I don't get it.
It can't be the economy. We're doing better than we have since the fifties.
It can't be the border. Congress was set to pass the strictest border laws in decades when Trump called on his cult followers to scuttle it and keep the border open.
Can't be crime. Trump's a convicted felon and a violent, depraved, sexual deviant.
Can't be health care. His pathetic refusal to deal with Covid resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands. Women are dying because of his abortion stance. Now he's placing RFK (worms LITERALLY ate my brain) Jr. in charge.
Can't be national security. He's praised Nazis and totalitarian strongmen while vilifying our own military calling them suckers and losers.
All that's left is that maga's hatred of Democrats, women and people of color is so strong they'd rather destroy democracy than allow a black woman to serve in the oval office.
There have been times I've been disappointed in my country. This time, I'm ashamed.
