“IT’S JUST LIKE THE FLU!”

“It’s just like the flu. One day it will just…disappear. Like magic.”

LEARN THE SYMPTOMS OF “DONALD TRUMP’S FLU

• Dizziness from the inability to process lies

• Heightened anxiety from not knowing who to trust

• Abject fear of unmasked strangers carrying automatic rifles—usually Trump supporters who seem to be always shouting (with spittle flying)

• Low-grade fear of open airport hangers (both those filled with exhuberant, maskless Trump supporters, or those harboring thugs dressed in black, carrying ninja weapons who are in-transit to riots in the suburbs

• Unnecessery concern about the rising number of Covid-19 cases and deaths

• Virtual disappearance of postal deliveries

• Panic attacks over the possibility of a Biden win in November

• Dread and alarm over black people moving into one’s neighborhood

• Abnormal fear of Black-Americans, Native-Americans, Socialists, Puerto Ricans, journalists, and Democratic mayors and governors

• An intense dislike of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Robert Woodward and Dr. Anthony Fauci

• An uncontrollable urge to move to Canada 

Be aware, Democratic politicians, George Conway and Antifa terrorist cells always represent a clear and present danger. They will try to argue around the truth you know to be true. Do not listen to them. Or to the mainstream fake news. They will lie and report that Donald Trump neglected to mobilize the power and resources of the American government when he first learned of of Covid-19’s deadliness last February. They will never admit that President Trump was so concerned about Americans panicking that he couldn’t risk activating the most effective and beautiful National pandemic strategy ever developed in Western Civilization. Nor will they admit that Donald Trump stepped into action—no, stepped into high gear!—the very moment he was certain that America’s unreasoned panic had been contained. As yet, we are unable to calculate how many American lives were saved by Trump’s swift and effective pandemic remediation efforts.

As always, Donald Trump, modest man that he is, takes no responsibility for the pandemic, its resultant deaths, or the still unfulfilled national effort he one day hopes to unleash.

More fake news! There were only
192,000 deaths when Time Magazine
released this issue.

Mail Late Again, Meds Never Arrived? Don’t Worry It’s Just TRUMPFOOLERY

“Please Mr. Postman look and see. Have you got a letter for me?”

trump·fool·er·y

Noun

  1. Rash or belligerent behavior, usually extremely damaging to people or the American Constitution; often used to describe serial acts of vicious pettiness, unnecessary cruelty, racial bias or rampant disdain for blacks, soldiers, immigrants, shithole countries and anyone dumb enough to vote for him. Most often used to describe acts by Donald Trump, in his official capacity as president, to hobble, denigrate or take possession of American institutions for his own personal gain or legal protection.

“In crippling America’s postal system, President Trump is attempting to block hundreds of millions of people from voting in a brazen feat of Trumpfoolery.”

  • Criminal acts, usually clumsily committed, but then swiftly covered up and legitimized by the Department of Justice or a presidential pardon. 

“In moving to represent President Trump in a civil suit where the President is accused of slandering a woman he allegedly raped, Attorney General William Barr, also known as Trump’s consigliore, has taken Trumpfoolery to new and dangerous heights.”

  • Unstoppable, vomitatious lying. The inability to speak a complete sentence without lying once. Usually accompanied by relentless and baseless accusations of lying directed towards anyone who comes to mind. Also the inability to keep one’s mouth shut when the Truth is being spoken.
He doesn’t even
like you!

Adjective

  1. Behaving in a way that defies convention, civility, established precedent or a body of laws. Criminal behavior that, if committed by anyone other than the President of the United States, would be grounds for prosecution, communal expulsion, shunning, stoning, repulsion or, in cases of treason, hanging till death.
“Losers, Suckers?”

“Describing John McCain, as well as all military personnel who died for their country, as “Losers” and “Suckers,” and refusing to honor their sacrifice is pure Trumpfoolery!”

  • Betraying all military personnel by collusion with a known enemy of the State; to ignore egregious threats against those soldiers from said enemy, and placing them in harm’s way to prove to people how tough you really are. To never confront an enemy who has placed a bounty on dead American soldiers.
Romancing The Stone

To abandon allies without a second thought, whether they are Kurdish soldiers or long-esteemed NATO partners.

“It was Trumpfoolery to yank our troops out of Syria at the request of Turkey, totally ignoring the danger we created for our Kurd allies who had helped us defeat Isis.”

  • Annexing the United States Treasury to the Trump Corporation, or to suck out all monies and assets accrued to said Treasury.

“With all the Trumpfoolery in his first term, it is not clear there would be enough money in the United States Treasury to finance a second Trump term as president.”

RELATED TERM

TRUMPERY

trump·er·y

Noun

Something without use or value; rubbish; trash; worthless stuff.

“To date, all efforts to protect America from the coronavirus have been sheer trumpery!”

“I did not make up “trumpery.” It’s a real word. Honest! Obviously Mr. Webster’s Dictionary was prophetic when it comes to trumpery!”

Modesty compels me to mention that my lovely wife Amy was the originator of the term “Trumpfoolery.” So please consider this post a joint operation by the Stone family.

HAVE RACISM, WILL TRAVEL

Heaven help us!

This is a slightly altered version of an earlier post. That’s how quickly things can tumble from bad to worse to total shit in Donald Trump’s America.

In the time since I wrote “Have Racial Bias, Will Travel,” (about a week) Donald Trump has once again used the presidency as an arm of his 2020 re-election campaign, throwing raw meat to his racist base with two imperial decrees.

One of these Republican
presidents was not a racist.

First, cancelling a government-wide racial sensitivity program, then prohibiting all U.S. schools from adopting a NYTimes-developed classroom program called “1619” that attempts to honestly teach America’s children about her unsavory history of slavery.

By this time next week there will probably be more affronts to the nation’s attempts to heal its racial divisions. You can count on it!

Trump is like the Paladin character in “Have Gun, Will Travel,” a TV western from the sixties. But instead of travelling out from his home base to right wrongs, as Paladin did, Trump takes his traveling shit show to wherever he can stoke the flames of bigotry, fear and hate.

In that regard, Trump is clearly addicted to the sound and fury of his supporters’ Fear, Hate and Prejudice…

“Let’s Make America White again!”

The Three Horsemen of Trump’s American Apocalypse!

America’s racist-in-chief is clearly determined to smash any attempt to heal our racial wounds, instead turning our long-overdue effort into one more lie-driven reason for racists and frightened American voters to put a check next to Trump’s name on the ballot.

Even Fox News can
occasionally get it right.

Yes, America’s President of the moment is actively seeking to turn American against American in his pursuit of re-election. Had Trump worked this hard to fight Covid-19, he might have deserved re-election. As it is, he deserves to be placed on top of the shit pile America History reserves for its worst offenders—rapists, pedophiles and traitors. 

Will he squeeze it to death?

Move over Benedict Arnold, there’s a new pariah in town!

It won’t be Mike Pence, Melania Trump or even Ivanka Trump who come to mind when History looks at Trump’s partners in his presidency, but Vladimir Putin, the man who allegedly placed a bounty on American soldiers. That is Trump’s legacy, along with a trail of incredibly bad decisions, most of them leading to his real legacy of…corruption, unimpeded viral devastation, an impoverished American treasury, and the reinvigoration of Trump’s two fellow travelers: Hate and Fear. 

Lovers and cheaters?

How many more Black Lives will we need as martyrs before Trump realizes that Black Lives Matter is not the problem, but the door to the solution?

Sadly, we would run out of Black Americans before that could ever happen.

HAVE RACIAL BIAS, WILL TRAVEL.

If there is one shameful policy of America’s Racist-In-Chief that I can never forgive, it’s his seizing of a critical moment in America’s attempt to heal its racial wounds, and turning it into one more lie-driven reason for racists and fearful American voters to reelect America’s #1 criminal to the presidency.

Trump is like the Paladin character in “Have Gun, Will Travel,” a TV western from the sixties. But instead of travelling out from his home base to right wrongs, as Paladin did, Trump takes his traveling shit show to wherever he can stoke the flames of bigotry, fear and hate.

Yes, America’s President—the man in the White House these last three and a half years—is actively working to turn Americans against Americans in his pursuit of reelection. As Trump’s first Secretary of Defense, Retired Marine General James Mattis, recently said: “Donald Trump is the first president in my lifetime who does not try to unite the American people—does not even pretend to try.” 

In this case, a picture says a million words.

Ultimately, Mattis called Trump, “A threat to our constitution.”

Had Trump worked this hard to protect America from the ravages of Covid-19, he might have deserved reelection. Not to me, but to some who now see him for what he really is—a narcissistic emperor standing in a draft without any clothes on. As it is, he deserves to be placed at the top of the shit pile American History reserves for its worst offenders—rapists, pedophiles and traitors. 

Move over Benedict Arnold, Donald Trump has come to town!

It won’t be Mike Pence, Melania Trump or even Ivanka Trump who come to mind when History looks at Trump’s partners in his presidency, but Vladimir Putin, the man who allegedly placed a bounty on American soldiers. That is Trump’s legacy, along with a trail of incredibly bad decisions, most of them leading to his real legacy of corruption, an impoverished American treasury, and his two fellow travelers: Hate and Fear. 

How many more Black Lives will we need as martyrs before Trump realizes that Black Lives Matter is not the problem, but the door to the solution?

Sadly, we would run out of Black Americans before that could ever happen.

Goodbye, Black Panther. You Played Your Role Well!

I was greatly saddened to hear of Chadwick Boseman’s passing.

His was an inner beauty that radiated through the roles he played: Thurgood Marshall, Jackie Robinson, James Brown and, yes, of course, The Black Panther. I feel especially saddened for my grandchild, a child of color, who will now have to find someone else to look up to and hold as a hero. Problem is, there are so few blacks that the white media or the white-controlled Hollywood movie system will elevate to hero roles.

Inner and Outer Beauty!

Thank you, Chadwick Boseman! For giving my grandson and millions of youngsters someone to look up to; someone whose skin is colored just like theirs. And you played your life’s role like an honest-to-goodness hero, Chadwick, never revealing your fatal illness till we read about it in news stories announcing your death. No false sympathy for you, no sentiment-based awards either! You were as close to a hero and role model as one man—actor or not—can hope to become. God grant you a peaceful journey to your next destination. Thankfully, you made the most out of your short time on the planet. We’ll miss you, King T’Challah!

King T’Challa, you will be missed!

Wakanda Forever. 

Forever!
