The Pettiness of It All -- Mary Trump

She states it well, for me.

I had to work on a project over the weekend that, for a change, had nothing to do with politics or the current state of America. But before I unplugged, or, at any rate, shifted gears, I did a survey of all of the news from the past few weeks—some of it is meant to distract us, yet all of it is consequential to one degree or another:

Donald’s continuing to deploy military troops and federalized national guardsmen to Democratic cities; the Republican-led government shutdown now in its fourth week; the laying off thousands of federal employees in order to deny them back-pay when the government reopens; the corrupt indictments of New York Attorney General Letitia James and James Comey (John Bolton is a different story); the continuing abdication of some of the federal judiciary; the near-complete destruction of the Department of Justice; the total destruction of the East Wing; more corrupt pardons; more corrupt business deals.

The Trump regime continues to flood the zone and, in the midst of the chaos and the very real and increasing threats to state sovereignty, the safety of Donald’s perceived enemies, and our constitutional way of life, I sometimes think it’s the underlying pettiness of the people in the Trump regime that’s going to push me over the edge.

The immaturity, pre-pubescent hubris, and sneering contempt of Donald and those with whom he surrounds himself (like Stephen Miller, Kash Patel, and Pam Bondi) get under my skin in a way few other things do. And the idea that somebody as petty and vindictive and cartoonishly thuggish as Donald is admired by tens of millions of people--yes, sometimes that is what drives me crazy.

1. The sneering contempt of Trump and his pals is contemptible.

And gets under my skin too.

Rat bastards, everyone one of them.

2. The Dunning-Kruger gang that couldn't shoot straight -- but makes up for it by shooting at everybody.

Killer Konservative Klowns, the lot of them.
