From Ghislaine Maxwell’s cushy prison transfer to Andrew Tate’s red-carpet return, Donald Trump’s America isn’t just enabling abusers, it’s promoting them.
I just don't even know how to feel anymore. It is all so disgusting and horrible. And yet the R's just lap it up. No big deal. I was raised by West Texas Republicans. If any of my family still lived they would be horrified. Alas, I'm the last one and I registered Democrat as soon as I was of age. The US fought against fascism. And yet here we are, run by Nazis.
Integrity is no longer required to hold office, if it ever was. If there is one thing I've learned after this debacle with Trump, it's never say never. The power this demented man has is unchecked and isolated from any illegality, so they say. Is there no one, whether it be a court, a member of congress, a lawyer, who would be brave enough to speak up, take him to court, and rid us of this monster.
As my mother (who lived through WW1, WW2, Korea, the Great Depression the Vietnam War and Desert Storm) would say, "They are all just chicken shits." I tend to agree.
Thanks, Mary, for another fine piece of reporting on the collapse of the USA, as it becomes a cheap copy of Louis the 16th at the end of the French "kingdom". I wrote an essay a while back on "Greeley's Newsletter" (substak) comparing the childhood abuse of Trump and Hitler, who was beaten daily by a father many years his senior and who had sex with his maid, Hitler's mother. The iconic Swiss psychoanalyst, Alice Miller, wrote a brilliant book in 1983 explaining the dynamic that brought Germany Herr Hitler, "For Your Own Good". Sadly, the internet is swollen with faux "experts", especially on half-assed analyses of Herr Trump that achieve nothing and are highly inaccurate, "uneducated". I'm a childhood sexual abuse survivor, so I'll say no more here. Have a blessed evening.
As I read this, it begins to seem like it's time to "get out of Dodge." This country has become a cesspool. My biggest fear is that, as a retiree, the authoritarian government would certainly seize my Social Security benefits, not to mention my personal financial assets as well. Possibly the only way to protect my personal assets it to offshore them, but I suspect that government restrictions would also make that extremely difficult.
Horrifying. Nazi values - male brutality and cruelty are celebrated, females are denigrated to vessels for sex, abuse and procreation.
Where are the voices of fury and condemnation from those who see the depravity and have the power and influence to be heard?
GOP = Guardians of Pedophiles.
