Trump‘s bold racism expands and relates to his tyranny objective!

After rapidly facilitating the arrival of 54 white Africa canners Trump ambushed the South African president in the May 21st Oval Office interview, claiming that mass murder was occurring to white Africans, which was clearly not true but widely reported by the media.

Trump’s further steps to now limit immigration from 19 countries offers again possible evidence of his basic belief that if you aren’t white, you’re not right. Or maybe he would say it you’re not right you’re not right!

For the past several years, my wife 99 years old and me at 94, have depended heavily on nursing helpers to maintain our ability to live in our home.

We have had the opportunity to meet over 30 black nursing helpers, almost all having come from Africa, although a few came from the Caribbean.

When each newcomer arrives to help us, I make a point of finding about their history.

Their stories are quite similar as to their motivations and their incentives for being US citizens.

These women have all exhibited intelligence, concern for us, and strong work ethics.

The agency that employs them carefully determines that all of them are here in the country legally.

Many have been here for years, have families with many of their children having been born here, which gives the children birthright citizenship.

All of these women with children have taken great efforts to make sure that their children get educated and many of them have already graduated from college.

That here is a shortage of immigrations to perform jobs that might be dubbed entry-level has long been well documented!

Trump has used his biases against people of color as well as transsexuals to frighten white Americans into allowing him to use the immigration issue as his main way of gaining the authoritarian control of our democracy, which now seems to be well on the way to accomplishment

There seems to be no courage on the part of any of his GOP lackeys to stand up to the obvious daily continuing actions against the Constitution of the United States and our vital rule of law.

Are any solutions possible to this outrageous behavior? After all there seem to be so many other problems Trump has initiated such as his growing attacks on our federal government support of scientific research at our institutions of higher learning, particularly Harvard and Columbia for the moment, but soon to be replicated widely.

The main disagreement over gaining passage for Trump’s “one big, beautiful bill” has been how to control expanding our national debt without cutting critical services to our poorer citizens!

Could the main problem be that discussions between people who believe in democracy and Trump and his allies who do not so believe has put the country in a uniquely vulnerable position at the same time China and other major competitors are counting on their repressive systems to work. Is Trump competing to keep up with their autocracies?

Apparently, Trump and his associates think that gaining dictatorial control over our country will allow them to more efficiently continue to reap the personal profits for his family that Trump has so far obtained from his occupation of the presidency.

It should be noted that when Putin took over from Boris Yeltsin, he distributed Russia’s government assets to his supporters who became rapid billionaires but with only one requirement! Total fealty to Putin or annihilation!!!!

There has never been a level of greater corruption on the part of a US President at in our history. Did House Speaker Mike Johnson say it’s ok because it’s being done in the open?? Oh, just that it is being done by Trump which means it must be okay!

Since Trump’s corruption is occurring in broad daylight without any concern expressed by members of his own party, there seems to be a little we can do about it. Right? Wrong!!!

Fortunately, the resistance to Trump’s steamroller against our Constitution, and our Rule of law has been somewhat restrained by judges in a massive number of cases many of those judges, having been appointed by Trump.

So having mentioned other concerns, besides Trump’s racism, it would seem racism is a relatively small issue compared to ongoing wars and our own financial crisis.

Clearly racism is part of the cruel nature of this troubled, president who believes that everyone is trying to take advantage of him in every area, where he is attempting to establish his dictatorship.

So far, a significant number of Americans, apparently believe that cruelty and repression, and destroying all the normal institutions that had combined to make our Country great is okay. Take over our cultural treasures like our Kennedy Center? Okay, because Jack’s nephew is our HHS Secretary, who knows better than qualified scientists how to deal with diseases? Of course, incompetence based on cronyism has abounded in Trump’s picks for many key government posts.

Wonder when Trump’s main mostly all white voter block, MAGA voters, will feel that his romp to tyranny is a favorable choice for our future!

So, racism could well be one key coordinating motivation for getting our nation to fail!
