Defying the King

TRUMP'S GESTAPO, the I.C.E. agency, was created decades ago, under Bush or somebody, and has merely been placed on steroids by El Trumpo. The fact is, European caucasians have tried to slam and keep the door to American shut behind them from the git go, American immigration policy, like tariff policy, has roller coastered up and down since their inception. Dark skinned people from other races are only welcome in America if they come here to be slaves, or cheap labor, which is essentially he same thing. Donald Trump the great racist, is not alone in his expressed preference for immigrants from , for example, Norway, the land of lilly white tall good looking people. The country with the tallest people in the world on average is the Netherlands. They are always welcome. There is no waiting line of people from Canada or Europe seeking entrance into these United States of Arrogance. For the most part, people coming here, from anywhere in the world, are either desperately escapng circumstances so intolerable that going anywhere would be an improvement, or coming here looking for drugs and sex. They certainly know where to look... Generally the Earth's caucasians enjoy a high standard of living,the Orientals a rapidly rising level of affluence, and the dark skinned humans are being left behind, Racism is certainly not a uniquely American cultural characteristic, although it takes it to a new level. On this planet, heretofore, it has been effacacious, so to speak, to have a lightly pigmented epidermis. And, being tall helps. Tall people tend to rise higher in the social hierarchy, economically,and so forth. I recall a statistic indicating that with every one inch increase in height, on average, people earned thousands of dollras more income annually, on average. We similarly reward good looks, physical attractiveness. Anyone who doubts the deeply imbedded pettiness of human beings in general, in human nature generally, needn't, shouldn't. People who say that this ICE occupation thong is not about immigration are quite correct. It is about Donald Trump turninng fascist,or manifesting his inherent fascist tendencies, by going after his opponents, whom he correctly percieves as enemies. Donald Trump has an extraordinary,nearly unique ablity to turns his opponents into enemies, with their willing cooperation. Glaringly obvious is that this entire charade, involving the National Guard and ICE has absolutely nothing to do with immigration per se, although indeed that is part of it. More importantly, it is Trump's way of testing both hhis supporters and the sixty percent of Americans who dispiese him to determine precisely how far he can go in exercising authoritarian powers. He is counting on his supporters either quietly acquiescing to or approving of his Hitlerian actions attacking democracy.Early incications are that they are doing precisly that, these conservative champions of free expression and individual liberty, eager to mistake the protestors against fascism for "radical terrorists", meaning anyone who opposes Trump and the new Republican fascism. Fascism is precisely what it is, and what the G.O.P. now climbs into bed with, in support of Trump's ongoing illegal, fascist seizure of personal power. Calling out the troops show off executive power,and and shows Trump standing up to and owning the libs. As an unintended consequence, it may well also inspire the libs to take to the streets on ever greater numbers, in defiance of the king, just like their ideological ancestors, Patrick Henry, Thomas Paine, Thomas Jefferson and the gang.
