Killing Ourselves With Trump
DONALD TRUMP is a bit more worrisome the last couple of days, because he seems to be trying to speak more sensibly, getting away from the pure ranting and raving and actually talking about issues, problems, policies, and solutions. Or trying to. Invariably, he reverts to raving. He can't help it. His social skill haven't improved though; he warned that if Kamala Harris is elected, all of America will become like Detroit. Problem is, he issued the warning in Detroit. The mayor responded that Detroit is alive, healthy, and growing, no thanks to Mr. Trump. That had to sting. Another problem is that Trump's proposed policies and solutions range from highly questionable to totally insane. As expected, he wants to cut taxes on billionaires and billion dollar corporations, as always. Precisely why tens of millions of working class Americans are evidently Okay with this is among the greatest mysteries in nature. Dubiously, falsely, Trump claims that the Amerian automotive industry is in dire peril, on its deathbed. He proposes tax breaks for them, government handouts, essentially socialism for the wealthy, as the solution. The Republicans have never really abandoned trickle down Reaganomics, and Trump is on board with it. Trump's other major policy proposal is nothing less than suicidal, on a planetary level, for it would ane still might lead to the extinction of all life on Earth. Right beneath our feet, says Don the Con, is an unlimited treasure trove of wealtlh , in the form of oil, coal, and natural gas. Dig, baby dig. Drill, baby drill. Bring it up, burn it, make money on it. Eliminate all government protections for the environment, all agencies and regulations. Stop production of those silly electric vehicles. Global warming, climate change, is a hoax, nothing to worry about. It has recently been reported that only a small percentage, about ten percent of we the American people actually are climate climate change deniers. I beg to differ. Not only is Donald Trump a climate chcange denier, but so are millions, tens of millions of Republicans, especially of the evangelical Christian conservative kind. If Trump gets elected, which over the past few days has begun to seem strangely possible, we can forget about the United States fighting climate change. Under Trump and the Republicans The United States will vastly, deliberately increase climate change, which will bring about the extinction of all life on Earth surprisingly quickly. Polls indicate that a slim but definite majority of Americans think Trump has better solutions for immigration, the economy, and Gaza, which once again causes intelligent, discerning people to wonder what they (Trump supporters) could possibly be thinking. However, on the vital issues of protection of democracy and women's reproductive rights, most Americans favor the Kamala Harris agenda. The American people must be awakened and educated to the fact that allowing the government to regulate the economy, including the behavior of big corporations and billionaires, is urgently necessary to keep the billionaires from rigging the economy to suck wealth and power, from the bottom to the top, which has resulted in an American society and country largely owned and controlled by the ultra wealthy elite few. Our corporate masters, as Gore Vidal called them. Ultra conservative populism results in an elite ruling class, falsely claiming to represent the interests of everyone. Its what Hitler stood for, its what Trump stands for. We dont want concentration camps for immigrants, abortion bans, book bans, A Christian country, corporate hegemony, U.S. isolation, nor cultural conformity. We want D.E.I.; Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion, and we want a totally woke United States of America, thank you.
