Racism by Proxy

This just in: I have seen several online conversations about why people like and don’t like Trump. The consensus seems to be that they say, “We like his policies” without being able to name any policies. The other finding seems to be the unspoken, “I fear non-white and non-Christian people as well as people from other countries and Trump will openly fight to squash their place in society.” In other words, they are racists but don’t want to acknowledge this so they like Trump because he will openly do what they only think about but never act on. Racism by Proxy.

There is only one thing I like about Trump…he could get things done.

Now, before you go off on this statement, let me clarify. I don’t like the things he did but I do have to admit that he always seemed to find a way to get it done. Also, I don’t like the methods he used (trying to overthrow the government etc.) but he got things done.

So, me saying I like that he got things done is sort of like saying, “I like his tie.” The statement says nothing about how I feel he is the worst example of a human being I can think of and he has done more to bring down our country than any other person in the history of the world.

On the other hand, I like what Biden says. I seem to share his beliefs in many cases. I think he is a good person and really wants what is best for the country; putting country ahead of self in every instance.

Still, he doesn’t seem to be able to get things done. For example, the Supreme Court seems to be going down a list of Republican goals and ticking them off one at a time. I’m talking about abortion, gun control and the inclusion of religion into politics.

Biden can’t fix health care. He can’t get infrastructure passed. He can barely keep Europe on track when it comes to keeping Russia in check. I think he was slow to act on inflation, (not that he could have done much). I think he is checking boxes, much like the Supreme court (talk about gun control…check. Talk about abortion…check) but nothing is getting done.

Yes, he doesn’t get stuff done because of the opposition. But, the opposition does not always have to win. We are not a country that benefits when the minority rules. He has the House, the Senate and the presidency.

He needs to start getting shit done!

So, who do I like? Trump or Biden? I would take a broken toaster over Trump. If Biden is the best alternative, I take him in a heartbeat.

Now for a video…

This is one of the songs I dance to in the morning.

Time to save the world.

Up, up and away…
