Extreme Vetting – Trump Style

This just in:  I came across some Top Secret government documents recently that outline much of President Trump’s political agenda.

Let’s start with “Extreme Vetting”, that bit of government research conducted to make sure we should be letting someone into the country.

Here is a copy of the interrogation questions:

Question #1: Are you white?

Question #2: Do you welcome the magic of Jesus into your heart as the only true savior, renouncing every other form of magical belief?

That’s it.  Just two questions.  A no on either one of these makes you a shithole dweller not worthy of entrance.

There are other policy positions as well.  They all basically say the same thing.

Healthcare position: Whatever the Republican Party puts in front of me so long as it’s the opposite of what our Black President wanted.

Tax Position: Whatever Whatever the Republican Party puts in front of me so long as it’s the opposite of what our Black President wanted; plus…a little bit of a sweetener for my while you’re at it.

Regulation Positions: Whatever the Republican Party puts in front of me so long as it’s the opposite of what our Black President wanted.

Immigration Position: Whatever the Republican Party puts in front of me so long as it’s the opposite of what our Black President wanted.

His base seems unwavering.  Trump’s actions or positions seem to not matter one bit.  Instead, it comes down to the following issues:

  1. Is Trump white?
  2. Does Trump make it okay to blame non-whites for their troubles?
  3. Does Trump sometimes at least pretend to be a Christian?
  4. Does Trump promise free stuff like a high paying job?
  5. Is it the opposite of what that black president wanted?

Pretty simple.

Trump and his base are racist.

Remember, racists don’t think they are racists.  They think their positions are justified.  Trump helps with this justification.  If you don’t believe me, watch how Fox News tries to justify Trump’s “shithole” comment.  To them, there was nothing wrong…just more locker room talk from “common man Trump.”

My response is to turn my back on them.  They are no longer allowed to occupy my horizon.  I have blocked at least 10 people on Facebook in the last 2 weeks and couldn’t be happier.  I’m sure they are nice people that don’t realize they are racist.

I looked at my moral scale and noticed that when I cut off the dead weight…I feel better.

Let the racists stand on a corner and complain about how badly non-whites are treating them.  I intend to move on, leaving them deep into my rearview mirror.

California and New York are doing pretty much the same thing with Trump and his racist Republican Party.  They are making laws that move forward as opposed to throwing up their hands and saying, “What can we do?  He’s the president.”  These states are joining other countries around the world, refusing to let Trump and the Republican Party abdicate America’s leadership role.

Time to save the world.

Up, up and away…
