Armchair Critic,

You go where the truth takes you?

You seem to have missed a great deal.

We're told that Trump has reaped over $100 million
through fraud:

And, that's only the tip of the iceberg.

Trump's current support in the United States and
elsewhere should not come as a surprise to people
who've followed American history. Or who've worked
and lived in the United States.

Those of us who hoped that the election of
President Obama was a positive for America and that
things would change. We were wrong as the Ferguson
Riots or the Charleston Church shootings showed. It
proved that it will take more than a change of
the Chief Executive to improve the racial situation.

Despite the mosaic and salad bowl avatar references,
racism and anti-immigrant prejudice runs deep
as constants throughout US history.

This unique nation of immigrants bears the stigma of
its original sin - slavery. The importation of
blacks as servile labour from Africa. Historically
welcomed as chattel before the Civil War and later as
unwanted citizens.

And today Black Americans still struggle to achieve full
acceptance in every walk of life.

Trump in his 2016 campaign used the tactic of speaking for
the average American against privileged elites, but he
also demonized immigrants, Muslims, and of course certain
racial and ethnic minorities.

We're going to see the return of the WASPS.
White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestants. We're goin to see a heyday of
white nationalism under a president who knows how to stoke
the flames of division and prejudice.

And his popularity in this country should not come as a
surprise either.

"We're told that Trump has reaped over $100 million
through fraud:"

By the PROSECUTOR. Struth Foxy how gullible can you be.

They claimed he overvalued his properties to get loans.

The people who gave him the loans said they did their own valuations and agreed with Trump's valuation. They got paid back in full and on time. No fraud.

Just more banana republic style persecution of the political opposition.

ATTENTION!

I AM OUT OF ORDER UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

MY " ILL-INFORMED PEOPLE" FILTER

NEEDS CLEANING

AND MY "GIVE A DAMN"

BATTERIES HAVE RUN OUT.

Good idea....when you're in a hole, stop digging. And as holes go, Foxy's half way to China.

mhaze,

How are you getting along with your "SECT OF THE DONALD"? Are you holding court with the faithful somewhere tonight in a dark and dingy basement.
