THE TRUTH WILL OUT

THE TRUTH WILL OUT
       #1


“America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” 


If Trump is to be believed, President Barack Obama  is the person to blame for all of the problems that he has had to face as the new president. From the time the birther movement originated from a post on the FreeRepublic.com  (March1,2008), until today April 6, 2017, Trump continues to vilify and disparage President Obama’s presidency and to delegitimize Mr. Obama’s legacy.

Thus we see Trump’s impulsive tweets used  to misdirect attention away from the major stories of the day. The ongoing probe into Russian interference in the 2016 Presidential Election is just one example.

Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!

As usual, Trump provides no evidence to support his accusations. On March 20, 2017, James Comey the Director of the FBI announced that there was no information to back Trump’s claims of wiretapping. And so it goes. Trump’s tweets show a correlation between problems at the White House and his attacks blaming others. In short, he makes false connections in order to transfer attention from himself to someone or something else. 
I cannot recall any president who was so hell bent at immediately destroying his predecessor’s legacy as Trump.

The answer is quite simple really. By his own behavior and words during the Presidential Election and afterward , Trump has shown himself to be a racist and a bigot. The world has observed his tirades to incite his followers with a view to keeping them loyal.

Why the rush to roll back policies and regulations? Does Trump and his administration believe that all Americans are ignoramuses and cannot possibly perceive his ulterior motives? 

Trump is taking away the power and safety nets of average Americans, those  of whom Obama championed. By repealing  and replacing the American Care Act, expunging the regulations that help Americans have clean energy, a healthy environment, Internet Privacy, workplace safety,  and more, Trump is wreaking havoc on our citizens.  There will always be threats to the United States. If you remember nothing else about this post, keep in mind what Lincoln said, “America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.” It made sense then and it makes sense now.




Live simply.
Speak gently.
Love unconditionally.
