color me red

The old con game was placing a coin under three red cups. The shyster would stand behind the cardboard table, then try the sleight of hand, look you in the eye, move the three red cups round and round in and out, provide a slight smirk lean in and then dare you to select the appropriate cup and offer you some kind of stuffed animal if you chose the correct red cup. Wham bam, no matter how well you kept an eye on the certain cup hiding that coin when the little con was finished, and the cup you were certainly held for you a great gift…you were incorrect…you were HAD! Shysters are good at their trade! They are great grifters! Conmen are conscious of just how gullible you are the odds are always in their favor.

Have you ever seen the Tax Payer, Trump Rally, you know the pretend fireside chat, that presidents used to have to speak to his “fellow Americans”, not his Klansmen? Trump is running for office in 2020 and uses these Rally’s as if he was a sincere Commander-In-Chief speaking directly to the people. These Rallies are just one more way to soothe Trump's pouty insecure mood, just like the zillions of trips to Mar-A-Lago, which are costing Tax Payers Zillions of dollars so Trump can take a holiday at our expense.

I can only spend the three or four seconds, as Cable news network flashes scenes reminding me of those good old days when Adolph Hitler stood before his passive peons, praising himself and in those days the Fatherland. Where the throngs of racists, anti-Semites, bigots, xenophobes wearing their red swastika armbands, smiling and cheering as Der Fuhrer belittled immigrants, any perceived political opponent, the free press, and the OTHER. Now we have Trumpty-Dumpty and his Kingsmen standing before throngs of jeering jerks wearing their red MAGA hats shouting, “lock her up”, lock him up” “lock them up!” This time, of course, all pretending to defend the Homeland, from immigrants, Socialist Democrats, the First Amendment, and anyone who dares step foot on the Second Amendment. As I looked at the latest mob pictures of all the Red MAGA hat wearing minions, watching Trump swish and sway his tiny fingers, it reminded me of that shyster behind the card table, and I was actually waiting for Trump to ask, which head wearing a red MAGA hat has a brain. Then all the Klansmen changing places and finally removing their hats and the answer is NONE!
