Everything I read, no matter what the source, discusses Mr. Trump’s madness. He continually rejects common goodness and concern for Americans. And yet, many follow his directions and many even defend him. I’m not sure I understand this. Over and over again, this man claims American headlines and keeps his name in front of Americans. I cannot identify any reason why Trump is in the headlines.
In the meantime, he has behaved so badly, that no other person known, could survive the press associated with his bad behavior. How has he survived? Any other public figure would be condemned, rejected and forgotten about. Given all of his bad behavior and the condemnation of millions all over the world: Who follows his direction? Who does his bidding?
Let’s address Trump’s latest controversy. Trump decides (with the help of outraged aides) that he wants to visit the Episcopal church across the street of the White House. In order to do this, peaceful protestors have to be removed from the area that Trump wants to walk to and pose for a picture.
Who decides that it is okay to disperse the peaceful protestors with the use of violence, flash grenades and tear gas (Bill Barr)? Then, who, who would actually do this? Who would throw tear gas and a flash grenade into a crowd of peaceful protestors? The curfew was passed, and that curfew is possibly what gave the brutes an excuse for violence.
If you are an American soldier it is against the law to raise a weapon on an American. If you are an American policeperson, it is against the law to use a weapon except in defense of yours or another’s life.
People follow this madman’s orders, preferences, dictates, etc. suggestions. Why, who, how?
Madness: no one believes that Trump is a spiritual man. No one believes that he knows what is inside a Bible. There he stands in front of the Episcopal church with a Bible in the hand. No one has been able to give us a hint of what the point was of that entire exercise.
The police dispersed peaceful protestors with violence, then Trump was staged with a Bible in front of a church. What was the point? Who followed his orders? Who made the orders? Why? Madman.
