Now with words like, "scam" and "fraud" being bandied
around about Trump University and its shrill salesman,
Donald Trump, the New York Attorney General (another class
action case in NY about the same allegations including
possible racketeering charges against the presumptive
Republican presidential nominee) has also been proceeding
against this so-called university and its snake oil sales
pitches.
The judge in the California case, has been vilified by
Trump and has been called a "hater" by Trump in a calculated
move to have the judge personally remove himself from the
case and which, if it were to happen, would have Trump
bellowing like a walrus that he can even take down judges
because he is such a tough counter puncher!
What makes this case so egregious is that, despite
Trump blasting a well-respected federal judge due to his
Mexican heritage, Trump believes that such a background
disqualifies this judge to preside over his case because
Trump is "building a wall."
Trump is doing his usual bullying of anyone whom he
remotely perceives can hurt or harm him and Trump is hoping
for a knockout against Judge Curiel and, if so, the trial
would be delayed.
What is painful to watch is these so-called leaders of
the GOP buring their collective heads in the sand and
refusing to renounce or denounce or withdraw their support
from Trump because they want to keep political favor with
whomever is their nominee.
Courage and integrity and principles have left the GOP
house with these cringing cowards who would rather turn a
blind eye to the bombastic Trump as he blatantly engages in
racial acrimony because the judge is of Mexican heritage.
The GOP leadership (if that what they still are) are
in bed with a serial verbal abuser and they love it to be
so! Very, very few of the GOP leadership have stood up to
this
racist behavior by Trump and called him out on the carpet.
No, they would rather bleat as sheared, shivering sheep and
avoid taking a moral stand against Trump's divisive
rhetoric.
The Republican National Committee headed up by the pie
back of all pie backs,
Chairman Reince Priebus, should withdraw their support from
Trump and do the right thing but they are unable to do so
because early on they sold their besotted souls to the Trump
in return for a mess of spoiled political pottage.
Now, they have shaken hands with the devil and the
stain remains and will so remain for years to come.
It is almost like watching political porn. You see and
hear things that are an abomination to the principles of
American democracy, fair play and justice but yet the GOP
actors keep on displaying themselves with both no shame and
verbal gibberish, that you want to take a hot shower after
you listen to their tongue tying reasons why they continue
to support their party's nominee.
So, I only thought it proper and correct that, since
they are wedded to this political demagogue who is trying to
outdo the late Alabama Governor George Wallace in spewing
racial vitriol, these conscience-seared politicos take a
pledge to Donald Trump and since they have already endorsed
him, why not?
Here is their hastily drawn up pledge to Donald Trump that
is being pushed by the GOP national office to show party
unity:
"I pledge allegiance to Donald Trump and all that he stands
for including race baiting and racial hatred and the
division of America into ethnic camps. In spite of common
sense and moral certitude, I will continue to support Trump
in spite of the political cost to me because I am weak and
need to be part of something greater than myself.
I pledge to grin and smile in his face and even though he
has wrongfully harmed others with his rhetoric, I am willing
to look past that because winning at any cost is what is
most important to me. I will put aside any moral scruples
about Donald Trump and will close my ears to anything that
is said against him because winning is everything to me and
my political party."
So signed by proxy:
Congressman Paul Ryan
Senator Mitch McConnell
Senator Marco Rubio
Governor Chris Christie
Dr. Ben Carson
and a host of other GOP cowardly leaders
I have even heard that to forge party unity and to bond
with the delegates at the upcoming Republican convention in
July in Cleveland, that the RNC has printed out by the
thousands the following song to be sung, with gusto, before
each day's proceedings. It is sung to the tune of the hymn,
Amazing Grace:
Amazing Trump how great his sound that draws a delegate like
me,
I once was brave but now a fool, a sap for any crass
stupidity.
I once was lost but now am found because I gave my self to
Trump
Twill be Trump that will bring me through and he I will
never dump.
Praise Trump....Praise Trump...Praise Trump...Praise Trump!
