I write my thoughts to you, Blog, because I know you are non-judgmental, and I'm to be the only reader of note. I'm fully aware that I have no power and and nothing I say or do will matter in the grand scheme of things. But from my working mind and a muted voice, I have to ask, how any thinking human could have been inspired to support the candidate who will, if fate prevails, lead our country for the coming four years. Of course, every human being has weaknesses, as witness out present leader's troubled crack-head son, albeit he has acknowledged and admitted his transgressions. But when if ever have obvious weaknesses ever before overruled common decency?
To quote the words of Leonard Cohen's song, "Everybody knows..." Everybody has to know that "he", a convicted felon, is a liar, an egotist, a cheater, a failure in business and marriage, a coward who promotes violence against others, a boor who calls others vile names, one who has disgusted those who worked closely with him, one who dismissed John McCain's heroism because he was captured, one who sullied veterans as suckers and losers, who stood by watching as violence erupted against his own vice president and listened to the calls of the rioters to hang him, one who spreads in public oration the unfounded rumor that illegal aliens are eating our pets, and, when confronted by fact checking, says he heard it somewhere, One who promises to be dictator for one day when he will get revenge on those who crossed him. One who shows a lack of education or knowledge of past and present. One who is basically so insecure that he sucks up to Putin and the billionaires who funded his campaign. One who belittles the workers whose efforts don't satisfy him. One who promised that when he won, no more votes would ever be necessary.
I could go on, but why? EVERYBODY KNOWS.
