After the most unprecedented denigration of
a presidential candidate in US history, the worst may be yet to come, beginning
Friday with Trump’s inauguration as America’s 45th president.
Pro-Hillary dark forces call him
illegitimate. Media scoundrels beat on him relentlessly. Whatever he does or
says or doesn’t do or doesn’t say is criticized.
Nothing in memory resembles what’s gone on
since mid-2015. The problem isn’t Trump. It’s America’s debauched system –
fantasy democracy, not the real thing.
Leaders like Obama govern by the script
handed them, doing the bidding of powerful dark forces running the country. Trump’s
anti-establishment sounding rhetoric scares them, especially talk of getting
along with Vladimir Putin – anathema in neocon infested Washington.
Days before his inauguration, a disgraceful
Huffington Post article contemptuously
headlined “Hillary Clinton is the Legitimate President,” saying:
“The evidence is clear. Hillary Clinton is
the rightful president-elect, and courts must use the broad discretionary
powers with which they are vested to enjoin an illegitimate president from
taking office.”
Shocking stuff, here in America, not in
some faraway tinpot dictatorship. The evidence is very clear. Trump won
convincingly. Hillary lost whining, whimpering, simpering and groaning,
believing it was her turn as a woman to claim the nation’s highest office.
Her defeat let humanity dodge a possible
nuclear bullet. Huffpo saying US courts should intervene on her behalf is
seditious or treasonous – despicably promoting coup d’etat action to prevent an
elected US president from taking office.
Huffpo: “Every major intelligence agency in
the country has reached the same conclusion: Russian hackers engaged in cyber
attacks with the express purpose of helping Donald Trump win the election.”
“They operated at the directive of Russian
President Vladimir Putin, apparently motivated by his hatred for Clinton.”
Fact: This is what passes for mainstream
news and information – utter rubbish, knowing, or should know, not a shred of
evidence suggests Russian-US election hacking.
The whole dirty story was fabricated – a
disgraceful scheme to delegitimize Trump and prevent normalizing ties with
Russia.
Promoting the notion of Hillary as
America’s legitimate president is scandalous, stuff commonplace in banana
republics or despotic monarchies.
It’ll likely continue after Trump enters
office – instead of focusing solely on how he governs, judging him by what he
does or doesn’t do for good or ill.
A rough ride awaits him. Fidel Castro’s
advice to Hugo Chavez before his death applies to Trump, saying “(t)ake care
what you eat, what they give you to eat. They inject you with I don’t know
what.”
Watch your back is also sound advice,
including carefully vetting security personnel assigned for protection.
Threatening dark forces make survival
Trump’s top priority.
