Trumplies

As a word, it makes sense: trumplies. They can be defined as the moronic comments of a man unconnected to reality, whose life and the lives of those around him are made up by him as a stream of consciousness. And I think I know where these trumplies originate. I was looking at a Medium article which had a closeup shot of Trump’s head. You could see his hairdo (he is one of the few men of whom one can say he has a “do”) clearly. It is such a complex lie that he must arrange everyday.

He combs forwards, backwards, upwards, downwards, in, out, all directions, designed to cover up many realities: bald top, thinning sides, bald back, quite apart from the cover up of the white hair that he colors frequently. So, think of it. Every day, he gets up and has to hide what he really looks like, because otherwise, everyone would know what a loser, in his own terms, he is. That just sets up the rest of the day for Trump to lie again and again. Having set up such an artificial creation, he simply continues on for the rest of the day, creating artificial “realities” everywhere. Lying is his natural milieu, at least from claiming dubious bone spurs to avoid the Vietnam draft to today. And yet, his base supporters like him, because of the wall, the stopping of immigration, of any kind. So we are meeting the racist face of America through Trump. He started characterizing Mexicans as rapists and murderers, which is racist, and he has continued with many other minorities. That is why he has support.

Trump lies and lies again, but it is bred in the bone. Or in his hair, what is left of it.
