How Dare We Disrespect Our President…

Some people are outraged about folks who they believe are disrespecting America and who have called out President Trump for being a white supremacist. Is he? I don’t know the President personally but It’s definitely up for debate based on his own actions and words…unless of course, you tend not to believe in what you see and hear.

But despite that, here is a video compilation of some of the hateful and disrespectful things that Republicans and Conservatives had to say about President Obama during his presidency. Are they equally as inflammatory and disrespectful and hateful? I’ll let you decide…and remember President Obama had just followed a Republican President who had all but destroyed our economy and military by following Republican doctrine for 8 years.

And Republicans, who don’t even like to mention their Republican President George W. Bush by name anymore went so far as to vow to not help the newly elected Democratic president in helping put the country back together again…and they didn’t.

Did you watch that? What do you think? And now Republicans want to take apart all of the repairs that President Obama put in place during the 8 years following the debacle of President Dub-ya and most Republicans are on board with that. They want to go back to endless war, free wheeling bankers and limited healthcare… for all…

And here is their new President re-tweeting a video about what he thinks about his opponent in the 2016 election for president… that he won. How would you characterize this president, our president, after watching this following tweet from September 13th, 2017?

Do Republicans have any right to be outraged about anything anyone else says or does? Is this how we make America great again? With duplicitous, whining, feigned, outrage and scoundrel-ism?

When will Republicans ever develop the courage to say out loud who they really are and what they really believe in?… as far as I can tell it’s Self admiration, Superiority and the opportunistic loathing of “others”…

 

Hang-Over Holiday?

Somewhere around noon on Friday January 20th Mr Donald Trump will officially become the 45th President of the United States..but if you are worried about being immediately deported or if you have to start that new job you were hired for to build the Great Mexican Wall or if you are worried about your health-care policy being terminated or even if you are Hillary Clinton and worried about being arrested, you can rest easy until  January 23rd.

Because Mr. Trump has announced that his first official day as POTUS won’t begin until Monday because immediately after being sworn in he’s going to take his first vacation.

“Day one – which I will consider to be Monday as opposed to Friday or Saturday. Right? I mean my day one is gonna be Monday because I don’t want to be signing and get it mixed up with lots of celebration.” said The 45th President-Elect to a reporter from The Times.

Wow! Could you imagine how Republicans would have reacted if President Obama had said that back in 2008? The first African American President taking a vacation to party and celebrate immediately after being sworn in?! They’re collective heads would have exploded, right after they had all pooped their pants!

(Note to Russia: Attack immediately!)

Anyway, now imagine that the Obama children and Michelle O.had stayed in school back in Chicago to finish out their 2008/09 school year. NYC has reported that it will cost over 1 million dollars a day to supply the necessary security for Melania and Baron T. to stay in New York to finish their shopping….er..um school year…and that doesn’t even include the Secret Service costs.

That’s 1 billion dollars by mid June! Plus President Trump-to-be plans to fly back and forth regularly on the weekends and Melania will be doing the same when she needs to be in Washington. This will cost a fortune in security costs for the Secret Service and for NYC, all to be paid for with tax dollars of course.

But he will be the President of the United States and he and his family deserve and need to be protected and no one will deny or dispute that…but just imagine how the Republican minions, who went positively apoplectic anytime the Obama’s took a vacation or President O. played a round of golf, would have behaved had they charged the USA billions of dollars just to come and go as they pleased during the work week!

OMG! Generals Jackson and Lee would have risen from the grave and led an army of newly minted, “Stars and Bars” waving, confederates along side resurrected cadavers in a march on Washington!…Am I wrong?

Of course former NYC Mayor and billionaire, Michael Bloomberg, payed for his own travel back and forth to his home in Bermuda from Friday afternoon to Sunday evenings on many weekends during his 12 years in office. He even payed for 2 police officers on his protection detail to stay in a hotel during those weekends. But after all Mr. Bloomberg was only running a major US city not the entire country! And he is a billionaire after all.

But Donald Trump is a billionaire too, isn’t he?  He says that he is although we have never seen any proof as to how many billions he actually has. According to Forbes, Mr. Bloomberg has 41.8 billion…and Mr. Trump has about 3.7, so the likely hood of President trump picking up the tab for his presidential commutes to NYC and back is about as likely as First Lady Melania using a non gold plated commode in the White House…

I know, that’s mean…but let’s just say this whole inauguration and transition thing from the 44th POTUS to the 45th POTUS is bringing out the “Trump” in me…Oh well, Happy stay-cation! See you on Monday bright and early…and maybe a bit hung-over…

Boy I sure am glad the Obamas weren’t this needy!
