Understanding Trumpers

DONALD TRUMP is a self proclaimed sexual predator, apparently proud of it. He is a pathological liar, with all seventeen thousand presidential prevarications documented and verified, time, date, and place, on video, on audio. The Washington Post, owned by Mr. Bezos, publishes them all. The president is a traitor, having committed treason by withholding vital military assistance to a valued ally, assistance intended to discourage aggression of a belligerent, enemy power. The narcissism, the vicious, hateful attacks against all who disagree with him, the chaos within the administration, as witnessed by the constant firings and turnover, all confirmed by inside sources. Every executive department, Education, State, Energy, EPA, is headed by people who are directly antithetical to the intended purpose of the department. The EPA encourages environmental destruction, the state department eschews diplomacy, the department of education under Devos is unfriendly to public education. The list is endless, of Trump's incompetence, criminality, and behavior adverse to American national interests. This makes his continuing support increasingly egregious, increasingly indefensible, increasingly criminal and traitorous, by the day. A prime example of a typical Trump supporter is a gentleman, to use the term loosely, with whom I have the unfortunate fate of sharing our local senior center. He is elderly, evangelical Pentecostal, and quite right wing, politically, a wholehearted Trump supporter. Eagerly he awaits the return of the Lord. He says that Trump is a good president, and is offended that Trump supporter are called "idiots" by their detractors. Actually, we not only call them idiots, we call them traitors as well, but, I digress. This octogenarian idiot assert boldly that the Democratic party is planning to eliminate the Jewish population, and that all Democrats go to hell. How hateful mist a person be to not only believe in "hell", but to desire that all members of an apposing political party spend eternity there merely for political reasons? To even think such reprehensible nonsense reveals an anger, fear, and hatred even greater than the malicious God the evangelical Trump supporters pray to. so great, so pervasive so villainous is this president's criminality, incompetence, and destructive behavior and policies that there is no longer any excuse to defend or support him. On inauguration day, I promised myself I would give Trump a chance, and I did. I would respect Republicans, conservatives, evangelicals, if they would simply say: "I have full faith in my religions, my country, and my political party and political convictions, but those of us who have supported Trump made a mistake, and chose the wrong leader. Now we must correct our incorrect choice." but pf course, this will never happen, as thy choose instead to harden their support, and hence extend their own egregious behavior. It will be a glorious day when Trump, all his supporters, and the vicious religion they espouse are relegated to the dustbin of regrettable history.
