We Interrupt This Holy Season to Rant

It has been a very tiring four, really five, years. We often just try to ignore the Great Narcissist. Especially now that he is the clear loser, a second time, of the vote of the people of our republic, and this time also in the antiquated and failed Electoral College. But my conscience will not allow me to ignore his loathsome, even criminal, in my opinion, behavior of the past week.

Despite the fact that his own administration negotiated much of the agreement that would have continued funding of our military and the rest of our government, including limited Covid relief for American citizens, Donald Trump has thrown a monkey wrench into that process, then gone AWOL to play golf (at our expense) for the holidays.

In addition he has given undeserved pardons to unrepentant gross felons who assisted him in his crimes or others of the last five years -- including admitted criminals like Duncan Hunter, Paul Manafort, and others.

He has continued to spare no effort in his conspiratorial campaign to overthrow our government to negate the 2020 election and make himself president for another term despite his overwhelming loss at the polls.

But most despicably, this human filth has pardoned convicted murderers and war criminals who slaughtered innocent civilians including children.

It is exhausting to try to maintain outrage day after day for five years, but we CANNOT allow this become normalized behavior. It is evil. It is counter to all the principles of American good governance.

It is heart-breaking that some otherwise good folks choose to continue to support this demonic and unAmerican autocrat-wannabe.
