Resist! Boycott The Inauguration

For the record, I do not consent to this inauguration. I did not vote for him, I voted for her. He does not represent me. He surely has not earned my trust much less my goodwill.

As a once illegal immigrant who had overstayed my visa, I strongly object to the criminalization of undocumented immigrants. Most come to the US only to seek a better life and avoid any entanglements with the authorities. Let it be known that for the common man or woman, the ones with no special skills, and no fat wallets, there are no lines to wait in for their turns for legal immigration. This supposed waiting in line to get ones proper turn is a myth, a convenient story some Americans like to tell each other so as to justify their rejection of immigrants that after all have made the US into what it is, a country that thrives on its diversity.  The haves protecting themselves from the have-nots, lacking compassion and goodwill toward those less fortunate. It is really ugly when the wrath turns on refugees truly in need of mercy and an outstretched helping hand.

I am truly appalled by this man's indecency, be it by his mocking another man with a disability, or by boasting about groping women's private parts, or attacking women that oppose him on their looks.

No, I do not approve of his showmanship, that takes pleasure in firing people after he gets them going into fierce and ugly competitions. I do not appreciate beauty pagans either where women strut barely clad in front of a voyeuristic audience that always rates those female external and inconsequential assets. 

The thought of his wife to become our First Lady is nauseating as those pics of her supposed high-end modeling look more like soft porn and can not be unseen. The memory of his wife in her first public speech to have plagiarized our real, intelligent and eloquent First Lady would be comical, if only. This wife of his accused of having worked in the US illegally, modeling before she was granted her official work visa is the icing on this cake, on this man's tirade against immigrants. Immigrants he not only hires when they are cheaper but married when it was convenient.

He rode in on a tidal wave of people's unacknowledged anger and frustration. He cast himself as the savior and bamboozled too many fed up with the system to vote for him. Those voters will have a rough awakening when they figure that they were had. They put the 1%, the very tip of our plutocracy in charge, which will not look pretty.

Already things are in the works, Obamacare to be dismantled with no alternative, Europe to be destabilized, our public lands to be offered for privatized profiteering, our public schools to be defunded and to be tainted with Christian teachings of the worst kind,  our unions to be weakened still, and our institutional protections from abuse to be abolished. This will not be the change the 90% were hoping for.

I do not consent to this farce of an inauguration. I will boycott the whole sordid affair. I pledge to not watch, to not engage, to not acknowledge this spectacle. He is not my President. He is a careless, reckless, impulsive, mean-spirited, cruel puerile man with no care for others, for me or you. I expect he will do a lot of harm and give us regular folks a lot of grief. He will set us back, but he will not defeat us. He is leading a dying breed of old white guys mainly, the patriarchy, afraid of losing their power and their privileges, which they will eventually. The numbers are on our side. They are the minority, never forget!

Don’t watch. Don’t listen. Don’t legitimize. 
Resist!

Illegitimate


Only reason the hacking of the poorly defended DNC is discussed 
is that the loss by the Dems was so big that they are totally embarrassed!
Donald J.Trump

Hard to decide if one ought to cry, wail, howl or scream at such utterances from our PEOTUS, supposedly our next President. Telling that his facebook page shows no negative emoticons, no sad or angry little faces, how does he do it? How does the biggest ever loser, not just of the popular vote, manage to manipulate so many people?

By spouting assumptions, appealing to the latent desires like every con artist knows how, and setting the bar at its lowest ever. By living in a fact-free world, where the most outrageous lies, the nastiest retorts, the most vindictive quips are simply means to beat and destroy his competitors or his adversaries in order to achieve the goal to win at all cost. Let's be clear, this narcissist holds nothing dear but what is his and what may serve him. This overgrown, entitled bully surely has no idea what serving the people might mean. Don-The-Con, the deal maker & breaker, that stiffed countless business partners and gone into bankruptcies at least 4 times, surely with no thought given to those he hurt, serves himself and himself only and nobody else. 

Having a good relationship with Russia is a good thing, not a bad thing. 
Only "stupid" people, or fools, would think that it is bad!
Donald J. Trump

Unbelievable, the biggest fraudster in US politics, Don-The-Con, is about to hold the highest office in the US, is about to become the most powerful man in the world. Despite the DNC disclosures that were leaked, not hacked while Republican info was leaked too, but not exposed! Despite still on-going investigations by the FBI and the Senate into connections to Russia. Despite rumors of plans for big time oil business with Putin after the lifting of sanctions on Russia. Despite rumors of money exchanges with Russia before the election. We the people have a right to know the true extent of Russian interference. While the cold war has been over now for a while, Russian interference with American elections is a very serious matter. Having asked publicly during the primaries for such interference, to give us her e-mails, ought to amount to treason. For PEOTUS to refuse investigations into these matters out of sheer vanity of not wanting his electoral win only to be diminished even further should make him unelectable and illegitimate.  

Unbelievable, Don-The-Con to be inaugurated, despite his never having released his taxes over the flimsy pretense of ongoing IRS investigations, reasoning entirely rejected by the IRS. Despite conflicts of interests still not fully exposed he seems to sail through to inauguration. Despite his horrible sons (one picture of them proudly posing with precious wildlife they killed for sport in Africa was enough evidence for me of their character) despite those two to continue as heads of his enterprises already selling access to POTUS to the highest bidders! Despite him putting his inexperienced son-in-law into a position of power, which we still call nepotism practiced in dictatorships not usually democracies. How does he get away with it? 

True vetting would have meant a thorough and independent evaluation of his body and mind. Not a quickly scribbled note from his quack doctor that probably supplies him with the pharmaceuticals that he demands and that he is likely hooked on. Clearly, his mind is not o.k., he can barely utter one sentence. His emotions are immature and his psychological growth stunted. But let's not forget Ronald Raegan. Never again a President that suffers in secret from debilitating senility or Alzheimer's while supposedly serving us the people. Never again, yet here we are with one clearly not all there, clearly in need of help and clearly unfit to serve the people. One that poses a danger to the world with the powers bestowed in the highest US office.

The times are very serious, these are no laughing matters, hence I offer some respite with a Trump version from a 1958 TV western, that features a snake oil salesman named 'Trump' who promised to build a wall in order to prevent the end of the world, for real, check it out on Snopes.
