Congratulations to the Democrats who won last night. It is a decent start. Now let continue nationwide to give a BIG Screw You to Trump and his supporters. Just like the world has done recently. "Making America Great Again" is a worldwide Joke. Trump has ostracized us in the world’s eyes. Even Syria Joined the Paris Climate Accord! That leaves America, alone, as the only climate denier on the planet. The rest of the planet sent Trump a note too on IRAN. Basically they said "screw you and what you believe, we don’t care." They announced they have NO intentions of pulling out of the IRAN Nuclear deal, regardless of what we choose. Once again, America you are on your own. Just how does this "Make America Great Again"? 90% of everything we use daily and often take for granted; from food to toilet paper, to our cars is produced almost totally overseas. We produce so little of our own goods, if they decided to stop selling to us, we would spiral into a Greater Depression than we suffered in the thirties. Famine, disease, plague would destroy our Country.
Is this Trumps plan to make us great again. The world owns our economy. Where do we have any leverage to make demands? We don’t. Trumpism is based on perceived power. Our ability to dictate terms to others. Our dealing in strength. Beside our military, we have no power to dictate, and that is stretched thin. We have no economic or political power. They don’t care what we do, because we are small and insignificant because of Trump. Trumps refusal to keep agreements, honor our word and keep our treaties, have eroded any power we once had. So why would anyone even listen to his thoughts and ideas on demilitarizing or disarming North Korea? They will listen, but they don’t have to do a damn thing. Nothing. So why he "talks crap" we are being laughed at by the rest of the world. We are being looked at as a "third world country" by the rest of the world.
Foreign Countries "tried" to ride Trumpism in their own countries, and got slapped down by intelligent voters of those Countries. Trumpism lost. It’s beginning to be rejected here too.
We have seen an influx of Natural Disasters, Racism, Bigotry, mass murders, intolerance, outright lies by our President both domestically and foreign, a rebuking of our fallen heroes and their families, his own party members, Our school systems, Healthcare, the elderly, poor, disabled have all been scorned, insulted and trash talked about by our so called President.
Now after "promising to release his taxes immediately upon winning" and then flat out refusing, he wants us to believe him when he says this "new" "Tax giveaway to the rich" will "kill him" personally. Even though all tax experts say he and his family will get about 1.2 billion dollar extra, if it’s passed. Sounds "painful" to me. Making seniors and the disabled work to get their Medicare and Medicaid seems to be a good idea to them too. They want to cut Medicare and Medicaid to pay for "Trumps families Tax Breaks". 1.5 Billion dollars have to be paid for somewhere.
So we steal from our seniors, The Disabled, sick and the poor. They emphasize "hypothetical scenarios" they created showing 1200 dollar tax cuts to the middle class. Most economist say it will ACTUALLY increase taxes substantially on the poor and middle class, not offer relief in the Republican fantasy edition they push. Yesterday Maine voters overrode Paul LeMasters veto of Medicaid expansion in Obamacare. Over 200,000 people signed up for Obamacare nationwide the first day it opened this year. Even larger than when Obama first offered it. Trump says its dead, but it is growing massively SINCE Trump tried to start "killing" it.
Lastly for today, I stated wrong information yesterday about the "good guy with a gun" and I questioned myself about how I could have been wrong on the gun and where the shots came from. Last night, watching the news, I found the answer. It was false information Trump gave on camera in Japan after the shooting. He said thank God for the Good guy with a "gun in his pickup" who prevented an even bigger tragedy. I apologize and will never use his words, unchecked, again as I know he is a confirmed liar who often invents his own facts and proof. I should have known better. It won’t happen again. Thanks for reading and commenting. I hope you have a great Day.
