The Reality of Obama’s Eight Years in Office, and Trump’s Likely Legacy

Two simple facts: (1) During Obama's eight years in office, race relations and racial attitudes improved, as demonstrated by reputable pollsters and a reduction in Hate Crimes; (2) These emboldened Trump base lunatics--as clearly demonstrated on social media, through reporting in reputable mainstream print and electronic News outlets, and in the Public Square--are not going to stop until we are forced to re-litigate the Civil War.

The breach Donald Trump has both created and exploited will not be repaired. Hate, fear, and willful ignorance are addictive and appeal to the most primitive parts of our brains. This lunatic's legacy will be: He exposed a racist, xenophobic, and mythic American Past yearning for, minority of Americans; the intellectual and/or biological descendants of Rebels who were allowed to survive the first Civil War in 1865 and pass their hate and ignorance to future generations. He sparked a second Civil War. When he did, we, the United [Blue] States of America annihilated all the secessionists and their sympathizers, allowing no premature surrender or peace. We will finish it this time. There will be no third Civil War in America. After this one, together, we will return America to its fearless march into the diverse, inclusive, more just, and no-longer WASP-dominated or 1%ers-tolerating Future. Greed and White Privilege have had their day; but now, it is ending... Reap the Whirlwind! Glory, Glory, Hallelujah, His Truth is Marching On.


“My Paternal Grandfather Called Them White People” 
Trump is in a trap he created with his rhetoric during and since the Presidential Campaign.


His DACA move is madness, raw meat for his lunatic base.


Trump Rescinds DACA, a Racist Bone to His Lunatic Base

Donald Trump, our racist Lunatic-in-Chief demagogue, first rescinded DACA, then, within hours, seeing the firestorm and bad press, said he “may” reconsider. This profoundly mentally disturbed emotional cripple thinks he can create and hate a scapegoat, to ‘win’ an election and continue to feed his 35% lunatic base to cling to power, and simultaneously reach out to the 60% of Americans in open rebellion against him and his Right Wing xenophobic agenda, and the 5% who inexplicably are still “Not Sure” about this madman.

Our Nation faced a fascist threat from Germany and Italy in the 1930s, and responded with a World War that liberated Italy, already regretting their flirtation with a lunatic demagogue, and devastated Germany, too slow to throw off their lunatic demagogue on their own. Now, 80 years later, we face a lunatic demagogue in our White House. We have a Constitution that gives our Congress a legal mechanism to remove this idiot without a war, and elections every two years so that if Trump's Republican enablers refuse to do their duty, we can throw them out and elect a Party that will.

“A Top Member Of Trump’s Diversity Council Just Resigned Live On The Air”

“They Know They Can’t Win; They Just Want Black and Brown People to Lose Too”

“Trump: I'll 'revisit' DACA if Congress can't fix in 6 months”

“After Trump Immigration Decision, ‘Dreamers’ Say They Will Fight To Stay In U.S.”

United We Dream, a great organization fighting for DACA and immigrants, fellow human beings, not “illegal” anything!

I was warned about WASPs from a young age, by my Grandfather, who immigrated to America, a mythic dream of opportunity that turned out to be a Social Class driven Capitalist culture dominated by a small minority of people who he presumed: “Once were honorable people.”

IMG 7426 All Things End



I've been watching my Morning Glories grow from seedlings to mature thriving vines in bloom and now, inevitably, surrendering to death and rebirth through hundreds of seeds, many of which I am collecting, but also many falling to the ground to spawn new generations of plants below my balcony... The Circle of Life!

Donald Trump is an abomination. His 'election' a fluke, the death gasp of a mythic racist White America that never existed. The reign of WASPs is coming to an end, their overthrow leading to the diverse, inclusive, more just, and no longer White-dominated One World of Tomorrow.

All Trump Resistance and no peace makes one an unbalanced human being... Like you, I am much more than my vociferous opposition to our hateful, dangerous, unfit to serve, lunatic demagogue and so-called 'President'. I took some time off this morning to enjoy this beautiful Fall day.

How Much Longer?


Trump has brought the Nation to the brink of a second Civil War. He has made himself illegitimate by his actions and words. Not just the Nation, but his own Administration members are in complete revolt.

“Trump quietly growing irritated with some officials: report”

His profound mental illness is becoming impossible to ignore, even for his apologists and enablers. His lunatic base is eroding, as opposition hardens. The most recent Gallup tracking poll data: http://www.gallup.com/poll/201617/gallup-daily-trump-job-approval.aspx.

The question is no longer if, but when, Speaker Ryan will cut his losses, try to save the Republican Party, and move forward with Impeachment. The Senate is likely ready to Convict right now, as Trump continues his attacks on his own Republican-controlled Senate. House Republicans in less safe gerrymandered Congressional Districts are already abandoning him. Those in safer, but not bullet-proof Districts are beginning to waiver. As more pragmatic and less crazy members of his lunatic base realize that his campaign promises are going nowhere in the Senate, they too are abandoning him.

This ‘President’ is wrong about Climate Science [http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2017/aug/31/what-do-we-know-about-relationship-between-climate/]. Much of his lunatic core “base,” who’s irrational hatreds, fears, and willful ignorance on Immigration and economic displacement continue to be fed by this ‘President,’ are wrong [https://www.prri.org/research/white-working-class-attitudes-economy-trade-immigration-election-donald-trump/?gclid=Cj0KCQjwiqTNBRDVARIsAGsd9MrruLim3xw5Ql0ZWEQs5TwlXPvCQw0vFimTGNfH6LHp1tNhZBif1dIaAhPQEALw_wcB]. The views of the lunatic White Evangelical Christian component of his base are wrong about Evolution, as all the Life Sciences, particularly genomic science, confirm the indisputable proof of this “Theory”; wrong about the Cosmos as cosmologists confirm the indisputable proof of the Big Bang “Theory” and almost 14 billion year history of the Universe; wrong about our rise and existence as an evolved hominid, not the Creation of a absurdly presumed Patriarchal God; and wrong about the superiority of Whites in general and WASPs in particular. The views of this wing, his lunatic Freedom Caucus wing, and other haters of Liberalism and Secular Humanism, and worshipers of Capitalism, are wrong that all of America’s ills are the fault of these scapegoats, and can be cured by a magical and mythic Free Market. Trump and his 35% base are wrong about Patriotism and loyalty to America; peaceful massive resistance to his agenda; diversity, inclusion, and the very meaning of our Nation. The alternative reality bubble Trump and his lunatic base inhabit continues to shrink in the face of actual reality.

Under siege from all sides, with investigations closing in, Trump is becoming more erratic and unstable, just as mental health professionals predicted he would. Meanwhile, his rhetoric and that of his core base becomes more strident and defiant, threatening a second Civil War. Once Impeached and Convicted, he may even attempt to enlist the Military—the object of his toddler’s fantasy admiration—to cling to power; a move that will fail as our Military Leaders are sworn to protect and defend our Nation, not a rogue lunatic Commander-in-Chief.

As the Nation and World endure more insane tweets, public outrages, and threats of “Fire and Fury,” Trump’s survival in Office until the 2020 Presidential Election becomes less tenable. To give their Party a chance to recover from this abomination, Republicans must become the Patriots they imagine themselves to be and remove this sick monster from Office, the sooner the better. It may already be too late, but if they wait until the 2018 mid-terms, only fourteen months away, they will not only lose their majority in the House, they will forfeit any claim to be a majority Party in the future.
