Tim Barrus in the New York Times
Trump only cares about Trump. As a human being, he remains an empty shell. It’s all performance with only a vacuum behind it. I am not allowed to say in mainstream media that Donald Trump is evil. Mainstream media doesn’t want to hear it. It is considered to be over the line in the TV sand.
So I will not say that he is evil. Make up your own mind. Examine what drives your thoughts.
Children going hungry. Children in prisons built for children. Children who have now lost their parents or their parent. Disabled children now in foster care in a tragic system failing and failing and failing. Dead children from group homes. Children infected with a buddy variation of Covid that is as virulent as Covid. Children who have never had health care. Children who have been axed from healthcare by Donald Trump and his crime syndicate out to throw anyone not like them to the wolves. Children and their education thrown under the bus. Children who are not going to live. They are going to die alone. There will be a lot of them. We will blame Trump.
Are we prepared or are we lead by a man whose compass has never worked.
Or are we lead by a man who has never worked himself. Trump has no empathy. Trump thinks it’s about the money. It’s about Trump. It’s about death. It’s about suffering. It’s about institutional ruins. It’s about coffins. Now, it’s about hunger.
Children in Venezuela get it. Hunger itself is often the driver of unmitigated, violent change. Blaming Trump will be ephemeral.
