Trump’s life a long con

 

January 13, 2021



The Republican Party used to stand for strong American values. The character and morality of their candidates was important to voters.

I ask you to compare John McCain to Donald Trump. John McCain was a war hero and an honest man. He understood political compromise as a necessity for functional government. John McCain and Joe Biden were best buddies even though they fought like cats and dogs on the floor of the Senate for their ideals and their constituents.

Take a step back and look at the draft-dodger Trump. Which of the seven deadly sins does he not exhibit? Pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth are on display for all to see. John McCain devoted his life in service to his fellow Americans. Donald Trump serves only himself.

Donald Trump is not a Republican. He is certainly not a conservative. He is not really even a politician. He is a con man and a charlatan, a life-long tax cheat, a sexual predator, a base and vile liar and a creature of Vladimir Putin.


Yet 74 million Americans voted for him. This number terrifies me.

I believe that all Americans now live in the shadow of fascism and totalitarianism. Trump’s efforts to overturn this election are unprecedented in American history. Our constitutional safeguards stopped his naked power grab. But make no mistake this was an attempted coup d’état.

The proper dwelling for Donald Trump is not the White House or his garish faux palace Mar-a-Lago, but a prison cell.
