I haven't blogged in a minute. Writer's block. The elevation of #45 in these so-called United States has muted my voice. Word.
Even before the November election day, I was shook to my core that our country was seriously considering the most unfit candidate in the history of candidates to be elected president.
I was flabbergasted and appalled by the widespread whitelash reaction to President Obama.
But, alas, here we are with Baby-Man in La Casa Blanca. And right on script, here we are with emboldened KKK, Neo-Nazis, and your garden variety white supremacist proudly marching -- with Tiki torches in hand -- Charlotteville, VA with terror in their hearts.
And trump's initial response -- mind you, this is a man that relishes pre-dawn tweet tirades towards enemies both real and perceived -- was some BS about egregious violence on many sides. WTF?
To add insult to injury, trump was suspiciously mum on any direct condemnation of the right wing terrorists (his followers) whose rally lead to the deaths of three people. And, due to growing pressure, trump finally re-issued a harsher critique of the thug (his word) white supremacists, a young child could peep his heart was not in it.
But even before the ink dried on his second statement, that clarified his first statement, trump reasserted his first statement -- blaming both sides equally -- in a third statement.
One final note: could someone please explain to Billy-Bob and company. If he and his crew did not come on the Mayflower:
Afircan Americans -- building US wealth while working for free may have beat his people to America by atleast a couple centuries; Asians -- building the railroads were here in the 1800's; and Native Americans and Hispanics were already in the Western Hemisphere long before the Mayflower. In fact, he is the Johny-come-lately of immigrants
