Live And Let Trump

With the state facing life-threatening weather conditions before the caucuses, Donald Trump told his supporters that it would be “worth it” if they died while voting for him.

At a rally, Trump said, “You can’t sit home. If you’re sick as a dog, you say, ‘Darling, I gotta make it.’ Even if you vote and then pass away, it’s worth it, remember.” And then the Trump Campaign canceled three rallies because of the weather because you can’t have Siphilis Stinky getting sick, ya know.

Trumpers will tell you that Trump was just joking, but was he really? How would a Trumper know the difference between a joke and someone being serious? Republicans suck at humor. And this “die for me talk” is another example of Trump’s fascist tendencies and how he views himself. This is some serious Jim Jones shit. Is he trying to encourage more Kool-Aid jokes?

And you would also think that maybe Trump would take it easy on the “die for me” talk when people have died for him. Unfortunately, many did not choose to die for Trump, but died because of Trump.

A Lancelot study determined that 40 percent of U.S. deaths from Covid could have been prevented if the Trump adminstration had taken the pandemic seriously instead of downplaying it and spreading conspiracy theories. Maybe telling the country that it would magically disappear and it could be cured by injecting bleach weren’t great ideas. Trump’s response and refusal to accept the threat of Covid led him to catching Covid.

It’s bizarre as hell that a former president (sic) who ignored tens of thousands of Americans dying around him is in serious contention of getting the job again.

The study also found that Trump’s lack of health policies contributed to the deaths of about 461,000 Americans in 2018, and in 2019, about 22,000 deaths resulted from Trump’s dismantling of environmental protection measures. And then there’s Covid. The Commission determined that 40 percent of Covid-19-related deaths in the U.S. could have been prevented had the U.S. only had the same Covid-19 death rates as those of other Group of Seven (G7) nations, like Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom. Instead, the Trump administration, with the help of other Republicans, politicized it.

And then there’s Ashli Babbitt, an Air Force veteran who went from defending our nation to attacking it. She was radicalized by the Qanon movement and helped propogate conspiracy theories like Pizzagate. Babbitt was shot by a Capitol Police officer on January 6, 2021, while trying to climb through a busted window next to a barricaded door into the Speaker’s Lobby during the Trump insurrection attempt to overturn the election he lost.

Donald Trump told her to come fight for him in Washington, D.C., saying it was going to be “wild.”

Trump and other right-wing goons have accused the officer of murdering Babbitt, ignoring the standing-their-ground arguments for George Zimmerman killing 17-year-old Trayvon Martin and Kyle Rittenhouse traveling out of state to go hunting for anti-racism activists. But the fact is, Ashli Babbit was a terrorist and she died terrorizing for Trump.

Babbitt took an oath to protect this nation and died while wearing a MAGA flag as a cape. She was a traitor to the United States of America but a loyalist to Donald Trump. Trumpism and patriotism does not coexist.

Donald Trump will climb over dead bodies or more likely, roll over them in a golf cart to become president (sic) again.
