The hypocrisy of supporting Trump

Amazing! His supporters cheered on the George W. Bush government, in particular the war in Iraq to rid that country of a terroristic tyrant - actually it was for Haliburton/Cheney oil - and other tyrants. Non-Republicans were the villains.

The next president had to deal with ending this war, getting the country out of deep debts, bailing out undeserving and ungrateful big companies, insurance giants, banking institutions to preserve jobs for the American people, eventually decreasing unemployment, introducing health care for the uninsured and more.

Now comes Trump, who long ago prepared for this move. He trashed the Republican Party and manipulated the masses into believing him. Suddenly all Republican heroes and candidates are bad.

His speeches are 10 short, simple crude sentences repeated over and over again until his supporters believe that a private server was not secure, although since it never was hacked or compromised it must have been safe.

The Republican lawmakers then spent millions of tax dollars on ridiculous inquests. An 11-hour horrendous interview of Mrs. Clinton at our expense resulted in nothing, but proved that Mrs. Clinton is intelligent, well-informed, open and has an incredible stamina.

If you let him, Trump will empty out your retirement, pension and Social Security accounts and your savings, which you will offer to him to stay in favor. Then he can build his enormous wall, build up an army of a magnitude never seen before and throw out all working immigrants, illegal, legal, desired, criminal, voluntary or involuntary immigrants.

Let's hope that before his possible reign the responsible generals will destroy all atomic weapons we have, because the big Oz Trump with his little trigger fingers will end this world.
