Trump Will Be Eating A TACO In LA
Trump Always Chickens Out, especially since this whole military thing isn’t about what he claims it is about
It is a distraction, people. That is what it is all about. For Trump, his whole presidency is one big reality TV show, and wow, does he have great ratings! And now he is using the military forces of America simply as props in his TV show. You’ve been watching, haven’t you? Of course you have!
I am hard pressed to decide which is worse. Are his unserious macho man threats to use the military on protestors worse? Or is the fact he’s making soldiers stand there in the blazing sun in full battle gear just for the TV cameras worse?
Trump federalized the California National Guard like a little boy seeing a bucket of green army men toy soldiers and shouting, “Mine! Mine! Mine!” King Donald wants to play with toys he stole from another kid by the name of Gavin Newsom. As a consequence, the California National Guard members have found themselves standing out in the sun, wearing about 50 pounds of gear, as protestors take their pictures and news media buzz around them like flies swarming a Taco Bell dumpster.
