EATING THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT
Manipulation of Misinformation
Once you dissolve TRUTH, democracy dissolves along with it. It is of the Tipster’s opinion that this is exactly how Donald J. Trump won his second term in office as U.S. President.
Tremendous demagoguery and deception led to an unprecedented moment in U.S. history. By appealing to the “Dark Side” of American history rather than using rational arguments with legitimacy, Trump was able to overthrow the government democratically, by cultivating a “Mass Movement”. Racism, anti-Semitism, xenophobia, gender issues and complete misogyny extended their evil malice from our long and not so distant past.
DRINKING THE COOL-AIDE
Trump’s Seduction
Winning a grievance election by virtue of deception and seduction was the easy part for Donald J. Trump. Hell, half of his followers still believe his continued rhetoric on how the previous election was stolen from him. He was never going to give up this position which clearly rallied his “Cultish Fans”. In fact, his greatest strength is in motivating people through fear, pain and panic. Anyone watching the events on January 6th, 2021 should realize that he was never, and will never be about “Unity & Democracy”.
Disinformation
I clearly remember a question presented to Donald Trump at one of the debates about what changes he would bring to health care. His response was that he’s got some concepts that he’s working on. Yet, month after month, all we heard about leading up to the election was Kamala Harris’s lack of policies and proposals for the next four years.
With the help of his friends and supporters at the No.1 political media network, Fox News he gained enormous momentum day after day by their committed effort to push false narratives. Furthermore, his billionaire friend and supporter, Elon Musk by virtue of his control of “X”, formerly “Twitter”, was able to reach millions of viewers doing the same. The disinformation exploding to an unprecedented level in the history of political theatre. Sham after sham deceptively encouraging undecided voters.
Some “Fact Checked” Truths
During the Biden/Harris administration, there was no recession in the short term economy, and a real per capita growth happening in the long term. The current administration quadrupled the number of new jobs created by Trump in his pervious four years in the Whitehouse; and yet, the American people were only to hear over and over again about a misquoted number of new jobs created by the democrats in 2024. The Biden/Harris administration also produced a record level of Energy during the past three plus years yet Americans were led to believe that Trump was the better producer.
There was no real mention on the growth of the stock market nor the current administrations effort and successes to bring down inflation. However, there was plenty of propaganda to encourage a need for change. Persistent disinformation such as Ukraine, the second largest European country after Russia, being responsible for the war with Russia. Immigrants killing U.S. citizens while receiving money and extravagant benefits that were being paid by taxing hard working native Americans. The documented truth about migrants is that they are amongst the most law abiding, loyal, and responsible individuals that make up America. Fox News stooped as low as to Outright Lie about government funds being diverted to migrants that were allocated for Hurricane Relief.
Facts about Donald J. Trump lost in Translation
For instance, Donald is 78, and definitely not as sharp as he was four years ago, when he lost the 2020 election by more votes than any other presidential candidate in history. He is a convicted felon, found guilty on 34 counts of fraud and collusion. He continually repeats falsehoods about his previous record as president. He cheated on all of his wives, makes racist remarks, and lies so often that it has become expected behavior. According to political historians, his time in the Whitehouse ranked him last or second to last amongst his predecessors. And, none of his appointed colleagues from his previous cabinet endorsed him for president this time.
So, what happened here, is one for the ages.
The Unfortunate Conclusion
Donald J. Trump, the Pied Piper, was able to blow his flute while elevating his demagoguery over the greatest nation on the face of this earth.
A Need for Faith
My prayer is that the Lord God watch over us with a steadfast guiding Hand laid firmly upon the shoulder of our next Commander and Chief.
