In his inaugural address Jan. 20, 2017, President Donald Trump painted an unrecognizably dark picture of our country culminating with the bizarre declaration, "This American carnage stops right here and stops right now." Trump's dark inaugural assertion of "American carnage," it seems, was less an evidence-free indictment of his predecessor than a portentous claim about his own presidency. We are only now experiencing the American carnage Trump once grimly accused former President Barack Obama of overseeing — and it could have been avoided with preparation and leadership.

The Navajo Nation located in Arizona now has the highest totals of COVID-19 in this country. They lack water, electricity, no real fresh food outlet, like something as simple as a Super Market, let alone a Grocery Store, Internet has not been invented yet for the Navajo Nation, and the Indigenous People, whose ancestors DID NOT arrive by boat, even the Mayflower, who are the original proprietors of this nation are not only dying in Arizona. Due to the Governor of South Dakota, Kristi Noem’s refusal to respect, honor or obey the tribal lands of those Indigenous People of the Rosebud Indian Reservation, the Sioux tribe, (who understand the grandeur of Mother Nature and her power), to remain in strict QUARANTINE, she too is carelessly squandering the lives of innocents for pure politics! And then today, we read that a police officer in Louisiana made the statement on FB that not enough blacks have died of the COVID-19.
Trump belittles Biden for wearing a mask, Trumps tells a reporter that the reporter is only being Politically Correct for wearing a mask, and Trump declares he won’t give the Fake News the gloating rights to catch him in an unflattering wearing of the mask. On the day in which we close in on 100,000 deaths from COVID, Trump brags that we have reached the peak (his hunches), and says nothing else in the form of condolences, or sympathy, he pats himself on his Twitter Back for doing a good job (Kind of like “good job Brownie,” spoken by George W. during the inadequate and death filled FEMA response to Katrina) We now are to forget about the Trump Virus, because, well, it’s too consuming and too had for his administration to handle. And GOD knows an election is coming up, so it is the alive people who count, who actually Trump is counting on to vote for his AUTHORITARIAN REGIME! Trump remains in power, because, the GOP Senate permits his every mistake to go unnoticed, and unanswered. American Carnage, Trump predicted, would end (it hadn’t even begun!) And like all things Trump says, it IS always a prediction of the future, because, Trump loves to brag about the insidious behavior he and himself have concocted during those times when he admits the only person he EVER needs to confer with is himself!
