Our ally Ukraine, who is trying to keep their democracy from the invading Russians, is being undermined by trump. Not only is he playing both sides but he keeps changing the terms of his agreement with Ukraine. What trump is doing in Iran is even more confusing and chaotic. He is using his attack on Iran as a leverage piece in stock market gambling. Not to end the attack he initiated on his own without approval from Congress, but as an ego trip to make himself look like the strongman he so desperately wishes to be viewed as being. In his latest attempt to coddle the strongman cult he has diminished our alliance with South Korea and tried to align more closely with North Korea.
Between 1950-53 over 36 thousand American military service personnel died fighting against North Korea and many more South Koreans, our allies, also fell victim. Now trump disregards American sacrifices of our fighting for democracy heritage to support the dictatorial regime in North Korea. We know trump secretly admires and colludes with putin and is also in contact with the dictator of North Korea. It is as if we are in an opposite universe on issues of war. and other paradigms not discussed here. We are seeing the dismantling of our American foreign policy under trump and his acolytes like musk who stopped USAID to help keep the vulnerable from dying of easily preventable diseases. Like cruelty and harm are now our priorities and nothing short of that will be tolerated by trumps!
The best of human nature is not a value with trump. Only the worst of human nature is admired by him. It shows in his adoration of tyrants and strongmen. What was normal, things like joy and happiness, are now replaced with fear and despair! In 77 days our election day will arrive and even better early voting starts in 27 days. That is when we all get to make it known that we are for normal again and not for tearing apart all that was good and great about the first 250 years of American democracy! I for one of many cannot wait for the moment we the people of America get to stop the madness of trump and return our democracy back to it's original intent, "Of the people, by the people, and for the people, a government that serves all the people."-Paraphrased Abraham Lincoln.
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
