“I love the poorly educated” is only one utterance among countless horrible others from the man in the White House who would lead us.
Saturday’s Gazette quotes him: “The opioid crisis is an emergency, and I’m saying officially, right now, it is an emergency. It’s a national emergency. We’re going to spend a lot of time, a lot of effort and a lot of money on the opioid crisis.” This from a man who brags about his very good brain with the best words.
His administration will do nothing, so it’s a lie for one thing, and for another it is pitifully inadequate.
He is a destructive child egged on by those who manipulate him with ideas he is unable to generate or penetrate on his own. Every day he and his cabal grind away at our destruction.
His agenda is being defined by those he listens to, chosen to feed his needs and enable his momentum, persons no one elected. He alone was elected, largely by those he duped, voters who did not know what they were doing due to the most dangerous fault of the innocent — their ignorance, which now threatens all of us.
I’m not talking about the alt-right who are anything but innocent, but those who have allied themselves there in imagination without fully understanding or believing what they represent. Now all of us suffer from a cabal of criminals and surrogates chosen by a president who is giddily supported by those who do not know what they are doing.
Where is the moral, well-educated center of the Republican party?
