Donald Trump promised a huge push right before the Midterm vote and he has delivered. It is not possible that he declared himself a Nationalist one day and his people delivered the bombs to even past American presidents the next. I do not believe in such coincidences. And to be truthful, neither do you!
The people I feel strongest for are the Trump followers and those who have given their allegiance to Donald Trump. They are people who were raised to believe they were “better than” those brown and black people who are lazy, shiftless, good for nothing, and must be controlled by those like us or they will simply go off into a lifetime of nothingness, contributing nothing, doing nothing, being nothing.
It is tragic to be in that position and instead of someone like the “Don” giving you a hand-up, to understand and move out of that huge swamp of disinformation, conducts himself and implicates you in such a way that one day, in the not too distant future, you will be destroyed. You will be in jail for the rest of your life; – or – you will be marked with the sign of the beast; – or – your religion will be out of reach to you because of the way you have allowed yourself to be played by those at the top who are looking for power, control and money, not God, love, or any of the things your theology puts out there for your faith development.
Listening to the comments of those who believe in Donald Trump, I recall all of those who went before him and gathered people up in a group to support him – his persona, his needs, his ego, his lies. Where are they now?
They meeting a tragic end. Germans who followed Hitler were destroyed in the end along with the Fuhrer himself, who committed suicide in a small, dirty, filthy, bunker when the world finally turned against him.
To hear an older gentleman, in an interview, conjecture that Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton probably sent those bombs to themselves was heart wrenching. Bombs, which we now know were neither fake nor a hoax but which could have exploded in the face of whoever met them at the right time. That older gentleman looked as though he was well into his 70’s or 80’s. He was old enough to have seen a lot of misery and history yet he learned nothing from all of the years he has been alive except to follow and lie and die for the likes of Donald Trump. Tragic!
One thing this bomb situation has done – it took Khashoggi off the front pages of the paper and off the news almost entirely. Given what we have seen Trump do in the past, that looks as though this event was planned to do exactly that.
Trump, working for a regime which killed in such a horrific manner, dismembering the body of the one they chose to kill and then lying about the entire thing is difficult to contemplate even in a “made for television” movie. Did the killers really think no one would be listening to their actions? Did they really believe they could do this and get away with it? Did they expect this attempt to cover-up their actions by Donald Trump? If they did, the reward to Trump should be huge. But that means he now takes his place in the line-up of those who have gone before. The history – the story he has lived and which will be reported for generations to come – not by the media, but by the historians – will outline what happened in total detail because the behind the scenes machinations become very public the further we move away from the time of such happenings. What Trump did and will do in the future will be uncovered by the historians for his generations to follow and they will have to figure out how to live, in spite of their ancestor.
Does he not realize – can he not see that those who did the killing of Khashoggi at someone else’s bidding are now the people being accused of the murder, out there by themselves being hunted down, going to jail for life themselves or being killed by a religious ritual which demands their lives in an excruciating way for what they have done. They will have to pay for this crime, while the person who ordered the killing is safely ensconced in luxury moving on to his next deeds and probably the one who will declare their sentence and it probably will not be generous.
Do the people involved in Trump’s cult not know this is the path they will soon travel? On earth to be scattered across many states, jailed, hunted down, no livelihood, becoming reviled by even some of their own? Today may look great for them shouting and chanting against those who have done nothing to acquire such horribleness onto themselves, but tomorrow?
The United States FBI investigated and continue to investigate the bombings and have captured one of the people involved. Fate intervened and the reason he was so quickly captured, the evidence needed for him to be so quickly captured, came from the bombing package sent to Maxine Waters. My grandmother would call that God’s justice. He will now probably spend the rest of his life in a federal penitentiary – to be joined by others as the investigation progresses.
Life is and can be so beautiful when lived according to God’s laws. When lived seeing those with whom you share this earth through eyes of love – not hate nor bigotry nor living it out of the need to control God’s people separating them from one another according to your needs – blacks and browns on one side; women and children on another; white males over all and controlling.
After the bombings we will be treated to the spectacle of Trump having some 800 troops aiming guns and other such restraints at the several thousands of people who are destitute and fleeing serious severe oppression looking for a better life, coming to these United States to turn themselves in at the border asking for refuge. He has publicized their journey and turned them into a serious marauding crowd of people coming to these United States to terrorize. Is that to hide the fact that this is what his presidency has been all about – the domestic terrorism of the citizens of the United States? He has certainly done a great job of that and he continues with help from an amazing group of people. I look at them and wonder were they raised in sin or has that come about because of their primary need to be “better than”, to earn more money than, to be more important than, to have control over_____ something! Grasping for all of those things which are short lived and which deteriorate and turn to dust. Those things which make one wonder when old age comes why did I take that route? Why did I do those things? What do I have left? How could I have missed what this world really is all about! How could I have screwed up my life so badly!
What will they do, where will they go when Trump is no longer president and has been taken down and indicted because of the incredible way he has gone about living his life.
Isn’t that what this is all about at this moment? Donald Trump doing everything he can to call together people who are weak in morals and character to stand in front of him when the bullets from Mueller’s investigation start flying and he has to face his actions? Hasn’t he called these people together to get them to sacrifice themselves, their lives and their families to attempt to save a man Satan successfully recruited generations ago? Before he was even in his mother’s womb?
Maybe we should feel more sympathy for Donald Trump. A third generation American trying to live down his grandfather’s reputation and lack of morals having come to this country broke, no education, no training who built a hotel and apparently turned it into a brothel making his money on the backs of women. And his father’s reputation of having built a fortune partnering with the mafia to build his construction business. And Donald Trump who built on his family’s past lives moving in the direction he was trained to go with his Construction, Casino and other businesses turning to so many kinds of activities which hurt thousands of people now making one last try for power and control over so he can experience what he came to expect from his upbringing.
It is a tragic story! The extreme of the tragedy is that he raised his children to walk in his footsteps. He doesn’t have many more years to go in this life. His children, however, might have decades and with what he has done to them and their lives they will be walking a road filled with the tragedy and history he has left for them to inherit.
An American tragedy!
