President Trump’s Address to a Joint Session of Congress last night was a disgrace. His words fraught with danger. His thoughts scary.
He has been a failure as a President, a failed businessman, and a failed human being.
Trump wants everyone to believe the U.S. is a failed nation and he is going to save us. The failed one is he, not the U.S. However if he is successful continuing as he has the first six weeks of his second Presidency, he is going to bury not only the the U.S. but the entire world. Economically and militarily.
His audience was equally disgraceful. Republicans and Democrats alike. The Republicans cheering a leader who will fail in the end. Fearful of the man who leads their party. Afraid to stand up for what is right. Afraid to oppose wrong.
The Democrats befuddled. They know not what to do. The “enemy” different from any they have ever known.
As the U.S. fails, so will the rest of the world. First, economically. Trump’s tariffs will give birth to inflation and a major recession worldwide. As bad as the one that began in 1929.
Loyalties are changing. Yesterday’s friends are becoming today’s foes. Yesterday’s foes today’s friends. The U.S. and Russia a perfect example.
The Republicans and Democrats as seated last night reminded me of nations waiting to do battle centuries ago. Facing each other on a battlefield. At an appropriate moment, moving forward against each other.
We are not a nation in decline. We could become one under Trump’s Presidency, If Trump seeks personal success, he will find it if he destroys what was a great nation with his wayward judgment, lies and mistruths.
Food for thought.
