Republicans have not been showing motivation to serve the people or the Country.
As many show fealty to Trump.
Positioning themselves for appointments in his government.
It’s not for the people’s benefit.
All self-serving.
They may not even think he’s fit for the office of the presidency.
But evidently, he provides a pathway for their rise and glory.
So far, Trump has stayed above the fray and hasn’t been held to account.
He indulges and participates in doing the very behaviors he gets his voters all angry and riled up about.
Trump and his Republicans are openly hypocritical.
And set themselves to benefit personally from their political positions.
Only on that side can actions contradict what they say they stand for or fight against, and step out unscathed.
For instance, they often claim that China is America’s enemy.
Engaging in unfair trading practices and stealing American jobs.
Yet that’s where Trump ordered the making of his bibles from.
Obtained under $3 a piece, selling each for sixty.
Do Americans take the time to understand how their government works?
Do they take a politician’s word, or do their own research?
How many participate in a one-issue vote?
Or think it’s worth considering beyond their space, religion or race?
Many seem determined to keep Rights and freedoms confined.
Follow Trump and believe his outrageous lies.
Like Democrats have the power to create, steer and control storms and tornadoes.
But the facts and statistics that display their achievements – These Americans don’t know.
Then there are those who listen to opinion and biased views, ingesting it all as “News”.
The media providing safe spaces that Trump can choose to go without challenge or confrontation.
They stick to their role of showering admiration and stroking his ego.
To help Trump stay on track, he goes on staged sets with interviewers who have his back, or with whom he is allowed to prep.
Believing that he cannot handle true and neutral journalists.
The interviewer will ignore, guide or excuse.
Clarify when he’s confused.
Remove facts on clips they play back.
Allow him to attack, “weave” and bail out whenever he wants.
So much sane-washing is done, so that he can live to the image that America wants to see.
What the people around him know he will never be.
He can play music and sway.
Stay among “friendly fire”, who continue to pretend that, despite what he says or does, he is who he isn’t.
Many who have worked with him, in moments of truth, have used derogatory names to describe who he is.
Despite all of this, Americans have voted him in.
So stop blaming President Biden and Democrats for where America is today.
It’s the Republicans, Trump and these Americans themselves that make and portray the mess they “feel” they are in.
They have decided; they have spoken.
They’ve chosen to add to what is broken.
Not enough Americans appreciate when Democrats try to relieve, resolve and improve.
Even as they try to stay principled, while fighting for all, Republicans are permitted to get around rules, the law, integrity and morals.
As they entice voters to go against what’s to their best interest and growth.
It’s unfortunate that those of US who don’t want this, are forced to live with.
