DJT is a ...
What say you?
Donald Trump is a…
Which of the following do you believe?
1. He’s a racist.
2. He’s a fascist.
3. He's a Nazi.
4. He's a homophobe.
5. He’s a misogynist.
6. He’s a homophobe.
7. All of the above.
8. I can’t know.
Unless you answered #8, your answer likely says more about you than it does about the president.
Unless you are the orange man himself or the Almighty above, you’re likely pretty bad at judging another person‘s heart. Yet for many, that doesn’t seem to be a speed bump much less a barrier.
It turns out that those with the confidence to ascribe one of those dark attributes to the president of the United States is likely suffering from a cult-adjacent personality disorder, where objectivity, critical thinking, and openness to examining facts which challenge dogma are the exception.
Let's work through this together and see what we can prove objectively.
He’s a racist.
If DJT is a racist, he's about the worst damn one in history. How many racists do you know that reduced the unemployment rate for ethnic minorities to the lowest levels in history AND received awards from the NAACP? Have any democrats done that? Uh ... nope.
I was ready to call it right there but then I remembered all of the racist statements from the past. And I just had to include those here for balance:
- Some black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf.
- In an interview with CtG, he said that ... if you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or the other guy, then you ain't black!
- Poor kids are just as bright as white kids.
- He touted his ability to work with racists, like James O. Eastland of Mississippi and Herman Talmade of Georgia, known white supremacists, saying ... There was some civility. We got things done.
- They gonna put y'all back in chains!
- In referring to Obama, he called him the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean.
- You cannot go into a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian Accent. I'm not joking!
I was ready to turn on Trump right then and there ... until I learned those comments weren't from him but from a democrat resident. How is that possible? The party of equity and diversity and inclusion would never have that person in their party, right? Bwahahaha!
Strike one.
He’s a fascist.
I'm concerned that people who claim this might not really understand the definition of the word. Let's start there.
- A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, a capitalist economy subject to stringent governmental controls, violent suppression of the opposition, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism
Doesn't that sound like a perfect description of the last administration where they worked with social media to silence critics, weaponized the justice department, jailed the opposition for years without due process, ridiculed those who supported the country, threw open the borders, flew illegal immigrants into the country, and ... now we know ... created a system in which hundreds of thousands of illegals could not only vote but drain our social security system?
Yeah. That ain't the orange man.
Strike two. How you feelin' so far, homie?
He's a Homophobe.
Really? You want to trot that old thing out again?
Okay ...
Scott Bessent - Treasury Secretary
Ric Grenell - Presidential Envoy for Special Missions (formerly DNI in the first administration)
Jacob Helberg - Undersecretary of State for Economic Growth
Strike Three.
He's a Nazi.
Um. See above.
NAZI: German party focused on National Socialism
Uh ... does Trump support socialism. Nope. He may be a national capitalist ... but definitely not a national socialist. Nazis were left wing radicals though the entire internet pegs them incorrectly as "far right." WRONG!
Strike Four.
He’s a misogynist.
Okay ... we might have him here. Except, of course, for ...
- Susie Wiles - chief of staff
- Karoline Leavitt - press secretary
- Pam Bondi - US Attorney General
- Tusli Gabbard - Director of National Intelligence
- Kristi Noem - Secretary of Homeland Security
- Linda McMahon - Secretary of Education
- Lori Chavez-DeRemer - Secretary of Labor
- Alina Habba - Counselor to the President
- Kelly Loeffler - Administrator of the Small Business Administration
- Brooke Rollins - Secretary of Agriculture
- Janette Nesheiwat - Nominee for Surgeon General
If the orange man is a misogymist, he's the worst in history! This dude sucks at being the worst. .
Strike five!
He’s a homophobe.
Really? You wanna go there? Okay ... you asked for it.
- Scott Bessent - Treasury Secretary
- Ric Grenell - Envoy for Special Msissions, previously Trump's director or national intelligence
- Tammy Bruce - State Department Spokesperson
- Jacob Heldberg - Undersecretary of State for Economic Growth
- Bill White - Ambassador to Belbium
- Art Fisher - Ambassador to Austria
All chosen for their abilities ... not for their sexual preference or for any other meaningless attribute. Ain't that refreshing?
Strike six.
All of the above.
Do we really need to do this at this point? Let's review:
- Racist: Strike One
- Fascist: Strike Two
- Nazi: Strike Three
- Homophobe: Strike Four
- Misogynist: Strike Five
- Homophobe: Strike Six
- Any of the above ... You LOSE!
Nice going, Ace. If you answered any of the above you're a cultist. Seek professional help.
I can’t know.
Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner.
