With only 18 Days left before Americans go to the polls with a chance to reclaim part of our nation’s government, the Republican Reich have abandoned campaigning on their much touted economic accomplishment that gushed up instead of trickling down.  Instead they are working to stir up hatred with the cry "Caravan and Kavanaugh".  Here’s what that’s about.<\/font><\/p>\n

It’s so easy to get numb – to adjust to things now as they are and say, "Well, they’re not really that much worse than they used to be, are they?" and "Hey, politics has always been a dirty business." Outrage fatigue is real<\/strong>. If you are ever overcome by this, feel free to listen to Steve Schmidt remind you just how absolutely ahistorical and unAmerican this "president" is in his behavior.<\/p>\n

There’s never been a genteel period of American politics but what we’re seeing here is something new, particularly from a president. He uses lying at mass rallies to scapegoat minority populations. He alleges conspiracies. He creates a sense of mass victimization and then positions himself as the avenger on behalf of the victims, defending them from the invading hoard of migrants coming from the south, approaching the border<\/strong>. This is all BS of the first order.<\/p>\n

Folks, there is a reason our current White House occupant cozies up to dictators. He likes their style. This isn’t new for him – he has always had this approach to his own life and businesses. Lying, cheating, treating people like objects meant to serve him, easily discarded when they stop fulfilling any of his requirements. Only now he has the power of a dictator, too, thanks to Republicans (and a few Democrats) in Congress<\/strong>… [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
