Is there something wrong with someone who peddles sneakers, steaks, bibles,

[Cyrano]

university degrees, vodka, neckties, furniture, mattresses, eyeglasses, deodorant, coffee, water, and even a personalized vitamin kit that was determined by a urine test? (Google it. He was involved in all of these scams at one time or another.)

There was a time when such a man would have been tarred, feathered and run out of town. Today, he's running for president.

Which means this isn't really about him It's about the incredible gullibility/ignorance/stupidity of tens of millions of
American voters. They don't understand the implications of his winning/stealing the Oval Office. They don't understand that he will be dictator for life. They don't understand that democracy will be gone. They don't understand that they will be slaves to the Orange Fuhrer. (The GOP operation to suppress votes, and steal them outright in a handful of states, might just be enough to win the electoral college.)

Were this to happen, he wouldn't have to worry about how to peddle kiddie porn or other sewerage. He'd have total control. And if you don't know what that means, read or reread George Orwell's masterpiece "1984." It will tell you everything you need to know about "TrumpWorld."

Can this come to be? You bet it can. We can vote, beat him by millions, and still lose. (Hillary won the popular vote by about three million votes. Joe Biden beat him by about seven million votes, yet just squeaked through the electoral college.)

Here's the bottom line, people. The bible salesman and his minions could gain control of the levers of power in America. And even if Dems win the Senate and House, does anyone really think he'll pay any attention to them. He'd declare Martial Law on day one for some lame reason. And his cronies on the Supreme Court wouldn''t/couldn't do shit about it.

This is where we are right now. And forget about any of the court cases against him ever coming to fruition. The American justice system isn't built to prevent a coup d'etat.

As much as I want to see us win it all in November, we're playing it straight against a rigged deck. Somehow, someway, we must change the dynamics. We would have to be insane to give up our country to a gang of barbarian cutthroats while we scrupulously played by all the rules of the game.
