A THUG

THUG: a violent person, especially a criminal. a member of a religious organization of robbers and assassins in India. Devotees of the goddess Kali, the Thugs waylaid, and strangled their victims, usually travelers, in a ritually prescribed manner. They were suppressed by the British in the 1830s.

So easy to toss the word around, when privilege is a part of your own environment. And who exactly is THE THUG? Trump, always hiding behind his fat thumbs and Tweeter Feed wrote: "These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!" So brave, when no cameras are around, or at least not the cameras belonging to his Propaganda Station FOX.  But then in the broad daylight, when his words can and do take on a different proposition, Trump remains silent regarding the murder of George Floyd. No mention to the American public of his violent response, because too many watching are not MAGA, and playing it safe, Trump pretends nothing to see here.

Then, Trump, again within the confines of his golden toilet inside his golden White House Bathroom (I am supposing, his best remarks of hate happen as he moves his bowels…) Trump, ever the bully in hiding adds an additional lack of leadership Tweet, just to make sure HIS minions are still gonna vote for him come November “I can’t stand back& watch this happen to a great American City, Minneapolis. A total lack of leadership. Either the very weak Radical Left Mayor, Jacob Frey, get his act together and bring the City under control, or I will send in the National Guard & get the job done right…” A THUG, you have to wonder, who EXACTLY IS THE THUG in this situation! A fearful, insecure, narcissist, only concerned about HIMSELF, promoting violence, from afar, and too afraid to admit to his own words!
