Trumped-up Logic

Now, this is some cognitive dissonance:

"If Clinton won the CNN coverage and mainstream media coverage would be all about how inspiring it is that the "glass ceiling" was broke, how this sends a great message to all the girls growing up, highlighting the best characteristics of all her cabinet appointments, things of this nature, while ignoring any and all controversies. 

If you guys don't see this and realize how dangerous it is to have a group of elites by and large controlling the message people hear. I don't care what their political persuasion."

Has this asshole not seen the resumes of Trump and his cabinet? They are almost exclusively billionaires and millionaires. He's charged a woman who never spent a minute in public schools with guiding the destruction of our education system. I'd understand this if she had been a gangly, awkward gal taunted by her peers at PS 31 and she was looking to get even with her tormentors. That'd be wrong but it would better explain things than her simply being a billionaire who desired to make more billions by privatizing education. Rex Tillerson (another mega-millionaire) is a business partner of Vladimir Putin whose primary mission as Secretary of State will be to carry on with his oil bidness with Putin, after Trump lifts the sanctions on Russia preventing Exxon from drilling the vast oil reserves of that formerly communist country. I could go on about the other cabinet picks but, you probably know all about them too. The dilemma is not that these bloodsuckers are obvious scoundrels. The dilemma is that assholes like the idiot quoted above either don't know or they don't care.

There are a lot of willfully stupid people in this country. There are more being made every day. Politics is mostly about right and wrong. You need to know right from wrong in politics as in life. It's not hard. But, too many people choose to make it hard.

Trump is clearly stocking his cabinet with looters and pillagers. That should be clear whether you are a coal-loving hillbilly in Appalachia or a sorta-patent attorney in North Carolina. Denial is not a river of pee in a Russian hotel room booked by Trump. It might be, now that I write that. But, it seems to be the first stage of republicanism. Denial is followed by obfuscation. Obfuscation is willful acceptance of something that is wrong. The internet is chock full o' nuts willfully ignoring the blatant obviousness of the impending Trump regime and obfuscating those obvious intentions.

Politics is like Fantasy Football. There's the games played every week and there is the game within the game where you draft players and play a separate, unofficial game based on the performances of the individual players. It doesn't count in the standings but, you win or lose just the same. Congrats to anyone who picked Trump in their Political Fantasy draft! Your friends may have giggled and called you an idiot but, you laugh last!

But, unless your name is Rex Tillerson, Betsy De Vos or any other cabinet members and unknown billionaire backers of Trump, all you get is bragging rights. Yay team?

Revenge is another motive in the game. People voted for Trump because he promised revenge- often in so many words- against practically everyone that weak, white males fear. Women. Blacks. Mexicans. People of faiths other than Christianity. And, ironically, elites.

Is there anyone more elite than a billionaire? Is he really the billionaire next door, the one you'd like to have a beer with? The fucking prick doesn't even drink. Nor would he dream of living next door to the likes of you. Sure, he promised to "drain the swamp" in DC. But, he's really just restocking it with his own alligators and peeing in the White House pool.

I've got a serious problem with people who can't or won't see through this charade. Stupid really is as stupid does. These fucks are buying into the destruction of the United States for revenge against their own weaknesses. I will not share a foxhole with these pussies when the revolution comes. Trump really grabbed them, didn't he?
