One of Trump’s promises was to build a border wall.
Without negotiations he made the call that it would be paid for by Mexico.
People must have had money to burn.
Because when that didn’t go they sent money for him to build.
Are they still expecting that promise to be fulfilled?
Bannon was convicted and pardoned for this border wall scam.
Yet he continues to draw listeners and fans.
Then when Trump didn’t want to part with the power of the presidency.
People sent money in exchange for the belief that President Biden didn’t win.
Many holding to that belief still.
The scope of inquiries, investigations and probes are reflective of the extent of Trump’s attack on democracy and the abuse of power during his presidency.
Yet he has people believing it’s because of Deep State, a witch hunt, political retaliation or stunt.
Americans readily accepting all of his and the GOP’s schemes as true.
Permitting it all to continue.
Republican leaders continually change their mind, stance and “facts” to where the votes are at.
Even as their lists of never ending maneuvers are revealed.
They’re shown loyalty.
Like hard habits to break, Americans encase themselves in reasons for fake to stay.
They’ve become so entwined, their eyes didn’t pop and their mind wasn’t blown with Trump’s turn to fully embrace QAnon.
And his minions put their finger up in salute.
To who and what are they paying tribute?
Trump and the Republican cult?
Certainly that’s not in support of all in US.
Like Putin, Trump expects for others to march to the beat of his drum.
And Americans should show allegiance to his version of Republican, Party and Country.
Those who are, are helping him grow seeds contrary to unison, civility, security and democracy.
Unfortunately, many still focus on power, profits and revenge.
They all come with a stench.
Trump feeds his narcissistic needs and teflons himself from accountability.
He will play the field and all in the room.
Amused at how gullible people are.
Putty in his hands.
Manipulating and exploiting to his selfish, self-serving plans and demands.
Americans who are or have been dumbing down.
Not willing or able to differentiate fact from fiction and opinion are a bad example and doing a disservice to their children.
Who wouldn’t learn or know.
Making them more vulnerable.
Easy to manipulate and influence.
Priming them to accept other people’s nonsense.
“Fool me once” – that used to hold.
Now many stay in their bubble to hear only what they want to be told.
Regardless of honesty and accuracy.
Not appreciating their current freedoms and the availability of verifiable information.
They choose, not only for themselves, but also for their children.
And what they want to impose on the Nation.
Replications – As if they prefer clones over independent thinkers.
But their mold has been deceptive and cruel leaders.
Following those who claim that exposing children to historical events and their effects is indoctrination.
Having them live under the guise of lies and conspiracies isn’t.
They can hear in real time the violent rhetoric said by leaders and politicians.
But not read about the atrocities endured by some as recorded by historians.
Believing that a society which accepts transgender is less safe for children, than one that flows extremists’ and supremacists’ agenda mainstream.
Gleam that law and education can be built by their side’s perceptions and deceptions.
That ruling by intimidation is acceptable.
Those who show no integrity are credible.
Trust is not to be earned but to be given free.
Even to those who lack consistency and live with make-believe.
Liking terrorists home-grown, with corruption as a side.
And even as they criticize others for not trimming the fat.
They indulge in that.
Extra weight on them is permitted, even attractive.
On others, it’s hideous and repulsive.
Their design ought to be for all times.
Even when outdated, they overrate it.
They sell as new, what’s used.
Degrade what others choose and present.
Inflate what they perceive they ought to get.
Raise the price then reduce to a sale.
Mastery to tricks of the trade.
On the route that only men should lead and be in authority.
Women are to stay a few steps behind and follow silently.
If that is par to their course, let them indulge and enjoy.
But that doesn’t give them the Right to subject what they do to other women too.
All contrary to democracy and Christianity.
Both supposedly championed by the GOP.
Tolerant of so much harm, in pursuit of a total abortion ban.
Which is more of importance than equality of Rights and accessibility to the American Dream.
Human beings having dignity.
Not just for economic stability but to live just, fair and free.
Build a Country where no one is above the law or should reign supreme.
Americans are losing sight of the finish line.
As they aim to deny others a chance to decide and win.
Forgetting humane to our being.
Love from God.
They limit US all as they suppress.
To their progress and advancements, they use poisonous enhancements.
They appear high on adrenaline from stress.
Mistaking it to be endorphins of happiness.
How can people feel free when they aim to restrict choice and liberties?
Expect to be safe when they create enemies?
There will be injustice, as long as they keep its light lit.
And the GOP’s continued wins give incentive.
How can they not be touched by loss that they cause?
There has been no pause to their war.
Just as Putin has been with Ukraine.
Right-wing charts to gain domain.
We can see the harm being done.
And that there is worse to come.
You’re not free when your mind is controlled by lies and conspiracies.
It’s not a show of faith when you’re so afraid of change, you need to create your own facts and reality.
Diversity becomes a curse when all that is different, unknown or you don’t care to know is perceived as worse.
Nowadays, courage to Republicans is standing up to those who reveal what they don’t want to see.
As the deceivers aim to keep their heads above water, they set others up to drown.
Do hostile take-downs.
Permitting others to do you and others wrong is bad enough.
But when the harm is generated from within, where do you turn?
How do you discern?
To where do you escape, when you’re the fake?
Allowing yourself to be ruled and fooled – not just by others, but by yourself – again, and again, and again.
