Trump’s Evil
Trump was probably mainly evil from a long time back
Evil being hurt and harm that is conscious
Like many awful things we learn from events like Trump
We become more alert and active
The thing about this odd country is we don’t cave to tyrants
And even the most evil are not beyond projecting their evil onto their enemies
Thus John Wilkes Booth shouting Sic semper tyrannus as he slaughtered Lincoln
We shall survive Trump and perhaps be better for it
Why
Because he is right about many things
But he is also mean and nasty and hurtful and harming
And this is conscious
And when this is the case the stricture on not judging is lifted
We MUST judge
Trump will be brought down by law unless he manages to rig the courts
If he actually retains power we will be engaged in a protracted struggle and even those of us who are nonviolent will suffer
That’s fine
We have poor veterans committing suicide daily because they fell to the same evil forces that Trump now represents
Some of us should be glad to fall before one whose spite is palpable and whose record was clear before whoever voted for him believed his damnable lies
