Trump's Trickle Down

 Trump to far-right extremists: ‘Stand back and stand by’ (AP) Trump Defends White-Nationalist Protesters: 'Some Very Fine People on Both Sides' (The Atlantic) Trump Says His ‘Fight Like Hell’ Speech Before Capitol Riot Was Actually ‘Extremely Calming’ (Rolling Stone)

 

A 49-year-old Virginia man armed with a metal baseball bat entered the district office of Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., on Monday morning and attacked two members of his staff, the congressman and U.S. Capitol Police said in separate statements. (NBC News) Intrusion at the home of national security adviser under investigation, U.S. officials say A man entered Jake Sullivan’s home around 3 a.m. one day last month, The Washington Post reported earlier. (Politico) Suspect in attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband was searching for her, sources say. (NBC News)

 

HMMMMM! UMMMMM! Surprise, surprise, so it seems…American Politicians and their families and their staff, are being attacked by self-styled vigilantes. Drag Queens, Trans People, Jews, People of Color, Immigrants even Educators are being threatened and intimidated both verbally and physically…and YET, so many Republicans act surprised, as if law and order are no longer the ORDER established for American lives.

 

WHAT, HUH…the lead candidate, for the Republican Party’s Presidential Primary to become President, Trump, (Donald Trump has become the first president – former or current – charged with criminal activity. In a 34-count felony indictment, prosecutors allege that Trump conspired to illegally influence the 2016 presidential election through hush money payments to two women who said they had sexual encounters with him. The charges stem from an investigation led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Jury finds Trump sexually abused and defamed E. Jean Caroll in civil trial.) (NBC News)

 

It is a true Republican TRICKLE-DOWN event (unlike Ronnie Reagans Bull Shit). The crime, harm, hate, loathing, and disregard for law and order, the rule of law, oozes from Trump like a tsunami of toxic waste, and filters to most MAGA and Republican cult members. The wild west is making a comeback, and too few of the GOP are trying to stop it!
