Unimaginable [View all]

[NanceGreggs]

So we’re Democrats.

Can you imagine our party nominating a presidential candidate whose only accomplishments in life were inheriting money while cheating working people out of theirs, hosting a TV reality show, and proudly bragging about his ability to grab women’s genitalia as a “right” because he was famous?

Can you imagine US supporting the candidacy of a man whose bigotry and racism is as obvious as his disrespect for women, who publicly mocks the disabled, and who outsources American jobs to low-wage countries while claiming to “Make America Great Again”?

Can you imagine US canvassing, phone-banking, and campaigning for a man who is as bereft of intelligence as he is of simple common sense, and encouraging others to put such an obvious idiot in the Oval Office?

Can you imagine US actually going to the polls and voting to place an ignorant buffoon, who knows absolutely nothing about the workings of our government, no less even a basic understanding of foreign affairs, into the highest position in our nation?

Can you imagine US defending incoherent “tweets” sent by an illiterate asshole? How about defending that asshole’s accusations that his predecessor had “tapped his wires” and was therefore guilty of a crime, despite NO evidence? How about insisting that the incompetent boob we’d elected deserved time to “grow into the job”, when that job not only required but deserved the very best we as a country could elect?

Can you imagine US rallying behind a pResident who blatantly lies about everything from the size of his inauguration crowds to the size of his electoral college “win” – someone who actually believes that those things are more important than all of the challenges that we face as a country?

Can you imagine US promoting the concept of some bizarre world where it is in our nation’s best interests to insult our allies and accuse them of collusion with our former President in order to “spy” on the current pResident?

Can you imagine US looking the other way as the evidence piled up that our choice of president had colluded with Russia in order to be elected, and is financially indebted to a foreign adversary in order to keep his personal wealth intact?

Can you imagine US doing ANY of the aforesaid?

No, of course you can’t. And that is the difference between US and THEM.

The Republicans have now demonstrated, beyond all reasonable doubt, that they will do anything to put one of their own in office – regardless of how detrimental it is to our citizenry, regardless of how detrimental it is to our nation’s standing in the global community. They are as devoid of principles as they are devoid of caring about their fellow Americans.

They will support, elect, and defend a pussy-grabbing, job outsourcing, mentally unhinged bigot/racist if it means chalking-up a “win” in their column – the well-being, safety and security of our country be damned.

If we had any doubts about that before, all doubts have been forever erased.
