I know… I know.. the title is redundant. We’ve known for a long time there is no bottom to how bad things can get when it comes to respect to Trump and his enablers. But this… this… story about Putin putting bounties on American troops and Trump and his administration doing nothing for MONTHS just boggles the mind. I mean that’s all he has left. Keep America’s military strong and law and order. THAT’S IT! There’s NOTHING else. He doesn’t have the economy. He doesn’t have our best interests in mind. He has failed horribly at the Coronavirus and helping us heal after even more horrifying racially loaded deaths at the hands of police. He’s got NOTHING else.
And then he did nothing. For month after month he’s done nothing. And the first response is… No one told me. No one told Pence. We were uninformed. We’re innocent because we didn’t know. Can’t blame us… we simply didn’t know.
WELL WHY THE FUCK NOT YOU FUCKING BUFFOON?!?!?!??! WHAT GIVES YOU THE MORAL, ETHICAL AND INTELLECTUAL RIGHT TO RUN THE COUNTRY IF THIS IS THE BEST YOU CAN DO? IF THIS IS THE BEST YOUR PEOPLE CAN DO?
You can’t have it both ways, Donald. You can’t be both the smartest and best at everything while always hiring the best people (well not Bolton (we actually agree on this one)) AND claim to be uninformed about something this important. You can’t be both the defender of our troops and the guy who sells them out.
You either knew and did nothing which is obviously unacceptable or you suck so hard at your job that the next model Dyson puts out should be called the Trump.
This HAS to be that moment. That moment when his base finally goes… “Wait WHAT?!??!” and the light bulbs start popping. It doesn’t matter whether they believe he knew and did nothing or failed to be adequately informed. EITHER is unacceptable. There is NO way to gloss over this failure. It’s too big, too horrifying and TOO FUCKING INCOMPETENT!
If Trump had a single ounce of self-awareness and humility he’d resign on the spot and take Pence with him. But he won’t. He’ll bluster and bluff and deny and lie, like he has all along. And the only question left is how much of his base will it cost him. What is the true bottom for his support. I figure this will be another 3-5% just gone or at least it will lock in the “strongly dissatisfied” section on the survey’s at 51%+ and hope that will do it, but that’s really not enough. He needs to be held accountable. He needs to have his nose rubbed in this over and over and over again by everyone and anyone who cares about America at all.
If they stick with him then the far right Trump bloc has some explaining to do, and every single GOP congress critter needs to have a microphone stuck in their face and asked “WHY THE FUCK DIDN’T HE KNOW?” and “IF HE KNEW WHY THE FUCK DIDN’T HE DO ANYTHING?”
And they’ll run fleeing for the exits and hopefully another chunk of his base will too and we’ll finally be done with this nightmare. I’ really sorry it came to this point. I really was hoping the hole had a bottom. That he couldn’t continue to get worse at his job. Show less compassion, less capability, less competence. But the bottom has no hole when it’s dug by Donald and all we can do is hold on to the railings and hope for the best as this clown car roller coaster careens to the finish line. The only question left to answer is how much damage will he do before we get there? How many more people have to die before this nightmare ends? And how much of our country’s reputation, pride and honor will be left when he’s finally done?
