Based on who his parents were, it would be hard for Donald J. Trump to be anything but a spoiled, damaged child.
His father was a racist, sociopathic, mobbed up crook.
His mother apparently had no interest in being a mother. Or at least no discenible mothering skills.
Throw in Roy Cohn, certainly a contender for worst Americans ever, as a mentor, and the outcome was set.
So...Donald turned out pretty much as one would expect. "The apple", as they say, "doesn't fall very far from the tree."
If he hadn't inherited all that money, cheating his siblings in the process, he would've ended up in a trailer, down by the river. The sort of person good parents would warn their children to avoid.
In a sane world, this wouldn't be anyone's problem--except his immediate family and anyone stupid enough to do business with him.
But, as you may have noticed, this is not a sane world, and there are millions of people who literally worship that pile of Orange Bile.
Rapist, tax fraud, business cheat, adulterer, bully, Putin's puppet, traitor, all wrapped in a smelly package that is rapidly sinking into dementia.
None of that seems to matter to his disciples.
Or to the vile advisors he surrounds himself with. The Project 2025 scum. The people who choose his judges for him. The Libertarian billionaires, especially little Elon Musk. All of them couldn't care less about the majority of our citizens. They care, without exception, for their bank accounts, or their ridiculous religious beliefs, or their deluded views of our history, or their enormous egos. Or maybe just for the blinding whiteness of their skin. They're all committed to using him to get what they want.
Not what's good for the people. What's good for them. The people be damned.
Fortunately, I believe that there are more good people in this country than there are MAGAts.
At least, I hope so.
It's either President Harris, or the end of the American experiment.
It's just that simple.
