Cults of personality are nearly indestructible, Hitler and Stalin are some of the worst mass murderers in history, but they are still revered by some, decades after their deaths. Kim Il Sung. dead nearly 50 years is still officially “head of state” in North Korea. Our problem is the Cult of Trump. the most bogus cult of all time, but it still may rise to destroy America and western civilization. That is not, in my estimation, an exaggeration, the loss of democracy and descent into madness and sycophancy with Putin is a very dangerous possibility which could bring on WWIII, and the nuclear madness we all had assumed was in the past. “It can happen here” the Courts and the alleged MSM are paving the way for Trump every day and in every way. Our Ignorant, bigoted, and stupid still vote in droves, willfully ignoring the easily ignored warnings of the true scope of destruction they seek.

Deep in nerdland is Warhammer 40K, a wargaming universe. Collectors can buy and paint scale figures in the games, one of them is “the Great Unclean One’, a bloated mass of putrid evil, a major demon. (you can look it up) I lack the skill to transfer an image. I have recently decided to call Trump the Orange Unclean One, So if you see it you will know.l

Recent events have me thinking of W.B.

Yeats, “The Second Coming”. Most of our literate Kos folks will remember some of it.

“Things fall apart, the center cannot hold;

...The best lack all conviction. while the worst are full of passionate intensity

...And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches toward Bethlehem to be born

Written in 1919, it seems to speak of today.

It’s idiotic, but obvious, Jan 6 was a riot, that did not rise to the level of an insurrection, Trump roused a riot, not an insurrection. As to the immunity bullsh#t, they cannot vote a president the “divine right of kings”, but they will find some weasel way to give Trump some weaselly cover.

I simply do not understand the media giving Trump so much slack on his mental lapses and attacks on others, not to mention his Hitlerian recent outbursts. Don’t they realize that if he wins next year they will end up, unemployed, in prison, or in exile, the survivors (those not replaced by MAGA minions) will be limited to praise of the ‘dear leader’ ala North Korea,? Trump is a sociopathic malignant narcissist, who will demand constant praise, and punish everyone not putting it out with sufficient vigor.

McCarthy needs to get a grip.

No one expects sadistic nihilist and child rapist Gaetz to become Speaker of the House, no matter what, so tell the creep to pound sand and act like man not a far-right doormat. Do what is right and necessary, not self-serving.

Tim Scott, must be smoking something or he's just warming up for the post Trump GOP

In the Trump era, the GOP voters are mostly two groups , the small town/rural older folks who are basically still voting for Ronald Reagan, and the racist yahoos, of the various white supremacy gangs. neither will vote for a black, even a deeply conservative one, at least until Trumpism is gone.

I was sickened by the thuggish congress critters who sat and refused to applaud Zelinski, supporting Putin is a (or at least should be) a crime, he is not just an enemy of the Ukraine, he is an enemy of peace, freedom and humanity as a whole, and he may be a friend to Trump, but he is no friend of the United States, or any other democratic nation. If the rethug House refuses to support the Ukraine, it will be, in my opinion, treason “giving aid and comfort to the enemy”.

Ignorance, or Appeasement?

The 30 Dems who want Biden to negotiate with Putin to end the war in Ukraine are ignorant of history. Munich, 1938, gave away part of Czechoslovakia, (leaving it defenseless) for “Peace in our time” to quote Neville Chamberlin. Sure worked didn’t it. It is better than the pro Putin creatures who simply want to mollify the orange creature.
