Trump Truth

Trump truth is impossible to know if you only listen to Donald Trump, his cronies, his cabinet, his ads, or Fox News. This is not about politics. It’s about ethics, integrity (article), and knowledge over lies, manipulation, and ignorance. I do not belong to a political party. I am a registered nonpartisan. I do vote, however. And it’s not about conservatives vs liberals; whatever those labels mean. Closed-minded and conforming vs open-minded and reforming in my experience.

Fox News is Trump’s only favorable mainstream news outlet of thousands worldwide — as far as I know.

I’ve avoided writing about topics like this one. But this situation with Trump is way past being serious and now it’s critical on many fronts, especially Covid-19.

If you allow Trump to be your only information source, as he wants, you are putting yourself in the position of being indoctrinated and manipulated by the biggest con man since Hitler. Think about what Hitler conned his supporters to do. This is no exaggeration. Choosing to only listen to Trump leads a person to gross political ignorance (article).

Why do Trump supporters believe that he is a genius who is doing a fantastic job in every area? Because he told them so over and over and over again while at the same time telling them not to believe anyone else. Hence the “fake news” and the blame game con that he repeats over and over and over again. Hitler used the same tactics.

Perhaps you question Trump’s ability to truly brainwash his supporters, particularly if you’re one yourself. Here’s a perfect example of this Trump truth. How else does a person get thousands of people to pack into an enclosed room without face masks during a pandemic to listen to them boast, criticize, and condemn for two hours? Trump’s decision to hold live in-person rallies during a pandemic is ego-driven insanity! And those who attend are dreadfully and dangerously ignorant.

Here’s a gigantic Trump truth.

The United States has the highest number of Covid-19 cases and deaths of any country in the world by far! And rising rapidly! This is true even when compared to countries with populations that are many times larger. The next highest are Brazil and India, whose leaders are Trump followers.

Trump’s handling of Covid-19 is not a political issue. It is a matter of integrity, intelligence, judgment, knowledge, and ability. His failures and continual utter ego-blinding stupidity about Covid-19 and pandemics are killing thousands of Americans. Failure by a nation’s leader (article) who’s responsible for protecting over 331 million people does not get any more serious than this. There are no excuses. There are no people or things to blame. Trump is 100% responsible. Along with his congressional Republican enablers like gutless (all) Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Kevin McCarthy, Ted Cruz, Devin Nunes, Jim Jordan, Doug Collins, and Louie Gohmert to name of few.

I can feel Trump supporters’ blood start to boil with voices in their heads of Trump’s excuses, lies, and criticisms. I wonder if Trump supporters will be brave enough to look into Trump truth for themselves or will they do as Trump has instructed them to do. BTW, I will not read or respond to emails from Trump supporters.

Although I may have disagreed with some of the decisions and actions of former republican presidents (and democratic ones too), I’ve always respected them. Not so with Trump. I have much less than zero respect for Donald Trump as a president, man, and person.

To learn about Trump truth for yourself, look at his history, his six (6) bankruptcies, his mentor Roy Cohn, his cronies Steve Bannon, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, etc., and the long list of people whose lives he has destroyed like Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman. I recommend these sources.

Trump is destroying America’s principles, unity, world standing, and physical (Covid-19), emotional, and financial health. The true fake, fraud, failure, and hoax is Donald J Trump. The only things Trump is good at are manipulating, conning, deceiving, lying, cheating, blaming, criticizing, and dividing.

I want to be very clear. I find Trump to be so deplorable, revolting, and opposite to everything I believe in, I have no interest in being friends, socializing, or communicating with any person who supports or aligns with Trump. Why? Choosing to stand with a man like Trump reflects a person’s character, knowledge, and judgment. And such character and resulting behavior disgust me. It also damages people and things I care about.

If you are a Trump supporter, the courage and integrity it would take to face the truth and reject Trump would be monumental. But I guarantee that you will be much better off for having done so. And it might save your life and those you love.

If you want a country that fulfills the promises of America, face Trump truth and do your part to end this nightmare. Vote! (< How to register and vote in your state, including mail-in. Or visit your state’s voting register website; usually the secretary of state or commonwealth’s website.)

We are going to reunite, dump Trump, beat Covid-19 (article), and become a better people and nation than ever before. In a good way. Not a great crap way.
