While Trump has been president he has attempted to do things that would have been very dangerous for our country. He wanted to attack North Korea. He has been stopped by people who work for him, the press, sometimes his own party.
At this moment, Trump is being stopped from committing acts that would kill many people, wreck our way of life, by governors, people who work for him, etc. Here is the crazy part.
Even when Trump is stopped from doing a great act of evil, he still does not agree with it. He thinks he is always right and the people who stop him are wrong. He attempts to do what he was stopped from doing, in a backdoor way, a different way. For example;
Trump wants to open up the country completely. He knows the number one thing that protects him is a good economy. That's all he cares about. He does not care how many people would die if that were to happen. He would just blame the deaths on somebody else.
Trump has been blocked from completely opening the country, so he is doing this instead. He started and is supporting a movement by his own people, his voters to open up the country. He has turned, open up the country, into a political rally. This will kill his own people and he knows it, he does not care. Trump supports churches opening back up. The churches his people go too. That is pure evil.
When you kill your own for your own benefit, you are reaching a level of evil that rivals the most evil men in history.
The biggest question I have about our future is, can we survive the evil of Trump until we remove him in November. I think we can, but I sure as hell would not bet on it. The danger from Trump grows everyday he is on office.
Honestly, if Trump were removed tomorrow, my anxiety level would drop 100%. My fear of the virus, economic ruin would drop. It is clear, Trump is the problem, the number one threat to our country, our lives.

(5,442 posts)I think it's a perfect metaphor for what Satan's favorite son is doing to his own followers. As they and their loved ones fall sick after listening to their master's voice, will truth begin to dawn on them? I'm a skeptic, but there's always room for hope. Three weeks from now, I doubt we'll see them.

(9,263 posts)its even more apparent now. The damage is generational now and the prospect of normal is gone. The run away debt has not even been faced yet and when it is, we will see inflation at levels unseen since the 1970's. The only way forward is massive devaluation of the US dollar to make the debt insignificant

(6,176 posts)It represents people who stand diametrically opposed to all that Jesus taught.
Trump is a leader of, and a powerful symbol of, the anti-Christ movement.
It is comprised of billions of devils, demons, and satans both in physical bodies, and beyond.
They have an abiding hatred for love in any way, shape, or form.
They are fully self-absorbed, greedy, callous, uncaring and totally ruthless.
Their goal is to destroy any person or thing that stands for love or compassion; any empathetic feeling for other people.
They thrive on human misery; the pain and suffering of people who have lost hope.
Any rationalization of Trump and his followers as being merely stupid, or merely greedy, is a serious underestimation of the extent of their evil.
No one thought Hitler could be as evil as he turned out to be.
Don't make the same mistake with Trump.

(113,304 posts)I pointed out that many, in Europe, in the UK, here, did the same about hitler- and look how that turned out.
As the deranged dictator's numbers drop, he is getting increasingly unhinged, murderous. I am sick to death with worry about the damage he is continuing to do daily. And I pray daily that this virus, a heart ataatack, something, will take him down. Him and his whole cabal.

(2,412 posts)Evil is real, folks and we need to start demanding Trumps resignation en masse. Stop behaving like battered wives and stop watching the horror show and DO SOMETHING TO STOP IT. It is time to demand that he leave office. The world is watching. Would the French put up with this for a minute?

(6,176 posts)Light needs love to give it direction.
Without love, light can't see beyond itself, and gets lost in its own self-created darkness.
Ultimately, the "battle" is not between light and darkness, but between love and darkness.
Darkness is the rejection of love.

(38,187 posts)That way the rest of us won't have to much cleaning to do to get rid of their contaminating everything in public that they touched. I openly wish they would have their Kool-Aid moment so adults could be back in control and make America great in the first place. Their idea of "great again" is a throwback to an era most of us are glad to be through and look back on as horrible history we hope to never have to repeat. I'd rather see the country move forward. As long as they exist and keep embracing the stupid like they are, we will not move forward in my lifetime or the lifetime of anyone alive right now. They are holding the rest of us back. They should be chugging the aquarium cleaner too, just like their man told them to, imo.

(6,931 posts)No testing,or significantly lower testing then fewer and fewer of those pesky higher and higher positive tests that are reported State by State each day around noon. That fat fuck TRULY cares not if people die as long as those reported infection rates go down,the stock market goes up and he re-election chances rise.
Shades of Saint Ronnie and the AIDS epidemic.

(32,704 posts)trump has always been the biggest threat, and any shred of hope that we could make it to election day in tact has been shattered.
As of right now, there's nothing in place for us to even exercise our right to vote.

(432 posts)Given the chance, he would do anything to cause our demise. It would not bother him at all. I also believe his most ardent supporters feel the same way.
Evil people have always existed, but giving them political power is what fills the darkest chapters of history books.

I have taken into serious consideration a plan to spit in the fact of every Trump cultist I meet for the rest of my life.
The world would be better off if he was gone.
Our country is a laughing stock of the world. Last year I was overseas and people there asked me what happened to America?

We're going to be shocked either way after Trump tries to burn down the government literally or figuratively before he ends his regime.
Like the Nazis the Trump admin will run to other countries to avoid being prosecuted

(432 posts)I dont think about dead or permanently incapacitated - 25A, assassin, stroke, accident, heart attack or COVID-19.
Just that hes out of power.
Of course, my preference is to see him and his entire family in a foreign country - separated, and locked in cadges with no access to health care - and sign posted saying, Dont complain. Youre only getting what you gave others.

(10,252 posts)Natural selection will thin out the Trumpster nd Evangelical herds, who think they can congregate closely, not wear masks, not wash hands, etc. Unfortunately, natural selection will also eliminate others, who do not protect themselves and take protections.
I know that this is not pretty, but natural selection is just like gravity -- it never stops working. That's just the way life works.

(18,123 posts)Trump is the worst, most corrupt president in our history, and his actions and inactions have lead to deaths of US citizens. But I would put him in the same category as Stalin or Hitler, or Ivan the Terrible.

(28,257 posts)That's exactly the depth he seems to want to reach---and what the hell is going to stop him, at this point? What chance do we have of a fairly-run national election in November? trump's douchebag followers are demonstrating in the streets right now---they want him to be president forever. This is what comes from the Nice Guys playing by a set of outdated Good Conduct Rules.
Whence cometh our deliverance?

(3,922 posts)The #IPOTUS is inherently evil and blatantly malignant.
One would think that such a foul human being could only rise to this level of power by being cunningly wise, an impostor of a benevolent person, one see who conned his way to power by being a person who was able to garner mass affection from people and then turning an about face into what we see now. But this cretin isn't any of that.
Everyone had all the information they needed about this thing long before the election.
He was a known racist, a known buffoon, a known failed businessperson, and a known grandstander.
It's the cultists who voted for this, and whom still cling to their warped, Bosch-like image of who he is, that is the greater evil - the evil of ignorance and the inability to see the facts for what they are.
The evil in this country is far, far, worse than any virus and much harder to contain.

(38,187 posts)I would say Trump is just getting started showing everyone else who he really has been all along. I don't think he is reaching. Revealing who he really is, more like it.
He already openly says neo-Nazis are good people. Has been for several years now. That speaks volume of just how depraved he really is.
Yes, revealing who he really is is more like it.
