In part, the miscreants of May have hijacked demonstrations against racial inequity. Under the guise of caring about their fellow men and women, they destroy property, steal, shot people, and rammed police with SUV's. They want no justice, no peace. They want chaos in which they exploit people and places for their own gain--emotionally or financially.
They are reprihensible, but they appear like pure cherubs when compared to the supposedly President group.
Last night, the President and his aides staged an elaborate celebration of law and order. It started before his press conference. He called the nation's governors, ridiculing many for not using force to squash the demonstrations. On Monday evening, he spoke to the press. He offered limp empathy to those protesting. He spoke awkwardly about people color, especially "the" African Americans. The cherry on his sundae: He threatened violence against all protesters--in the nation's capital and any place else in the nation if governors and mayors didn't quell disturbances. Meanwhile, he put hundreds of police officers and protesters in damage when he order the officers to push back the protesters in Lafayette Square Park. Why? He needed another photo-op.
Katie Rogers reported in the New York Times:
"As police sirens blared in the background, Mr. Trump, his lips set in a thin line, stood with his back to the boarded-up, graffiti-laden facade of the buttermilk yellow church. He cradled a Bible, bouncing it in his hands as if testing its weight.
'"Is that your Bible?' a reporter yelled.
“'It’s a Bible,' Mr. Trump responded, and hoisted up the book so reporters could see.
"The bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, who watched the scene unfold while away from the church visiting with her mother, said church officials were not told of the plan and expressed outrage at the White House’s use of riot-control tactics on a generally peaceful crowd to clear a path for the president."
President Blubberbutt was weighing that Bible. It's a big book with lots of big, really big, words, and he probably wonders why didn't Abraham, Moses, and Jesus do a Fox and Friends show in the desert.
President Sowide loves live television. So, his staff staged even more for their president ham. His staff not only put the going-bald President in harm's way, they put the church in the line of fire.
His aidess lucked out. God turned off the news after the press conference. If she had stayed tuned, the heavens would have rattled at the sight of the pussy-petting, bankruptcy mastermind holding a bible. She would have sent a lightning bolt up his ass, and it would have to be a large bolt considering the size of his rear.
So, which group is worse? The Miscreants of May or the Blubbercrat of DC?
Miscreants are commonplace. Pick any group of people. You can disregard gender and ethnicity or can created groups based on gender and ethnicity. You will always find one common element: 15-25% of the group members are miscreants,, willing to cheat anyone for their personal gain.
Bubbler is harder to pin down. President Baldy supposedly has an Ivy League education (he does have the degree, but does he have the education?). He's rich. He has a powerful position in American society, albeit not as powerful as he thinks or wishes. (There's a reason he loves Vlad Putin.) He is a bully. He's also a chicken-shit. (Just ask Vlad.) Even though the White House itself is almost a bunker, on the first night of the protests, President Blubberbutt soiled his pants. There wasn't a Secret Service agent willing to put him in a diaper, so they rushed him to the bunker. (That's my theory.)
The Donald fears people of color, like most of the people in his support base. So, as a bully he strikes his enemies before they strike him. The call to the nation's governors, press conference, and standing with a Bible on a church steps salve his fears, placated his election base, and created the illusion he "found" Jesus. (If he had found Jesus, he probably would have him arrested as a member of antifa.) He did it all not in the name of national unity but in his bizarre effort to get re-elected.
Which group is worse? You pick.
