Trump can’t charm his way pastWoodwa­rd

-

Good News! President Trump is not entirely delusional. In February, Trump acknowledg­ed to journalist Bob Woodward the coronaviru­s was “deadly, airborne and worse than a strenuous flu.”

Trump still held rallies attended by thousands of his worshipper­s. This reveals the depth of Trump’s disdain for his own supporters.

For many Trump followers none of this matters. The party of Lincoln has become the party of “so what.” Trump’s more than their leader, he’s their avenging angel, their murder weapon.

Carnage Trump tells Americans they should worry more about anarchists and socialist than the lethal threat outside their doors. In Trump’s world nothing bonds a group more tightly than a common enemy that is perceived as a mortal threat.

Fear not! Joe Biden is not a socialist. He fended off progressiv­e rivals and is endorsed by hundreds of real Republican­s . The only socialist I know is Congressma­n LaMalfa. LaMalfa is the recipient of a price support program that guarantees his income.

ANTIFA while violent, doesn’t plunder villages. Their goal is to destroy white supremacis­ts who are the main terrorism threat facing America. The reality is that only one of the two candidates cheers them.

LaMalfa needs to ensure the pseudo Republican­s aren’t known for being wholly indecent idiots. When a 9/11 truther,

Q, Anon and KKK supporter won her primary, Trump called her a “future Republican star.”

It’s a testimony to Trump’s measureles­s stupidity and ego that he thought he could charm Bob Woodward into producing a glowing chronicle. Fool! Thanks for the space.
