The way I see it, the Traitor Don quote in the above meme from this past weekend's Nazi Love Fest in Pennsyltucky is as good of an example of how much and why his party loves him as any. You know how they always talk about him in such glowing terms for "speaking his mind?" It was a long, long, long way from Honest Abe's legendary Gettysburg Address but Donald Jackass Trump is a long, long, long way from Abe Lincoln. The crowd cheered the above statement, of course. They love him even more because he speaks just like they do, mangling not just decency and morality but the English language itself. In short, he really does speak perfect Republicanese. He speaks his mind and it's always ugly Republican politicians and voters who look and listen to the Orange Menace To Society and they say "He's speaking my language. This is why no normal person should even waste a split second trying to talk to a republican. If you do, you must be some sort of glutton for punishment and should just pay someone to beat you with a rolled up magazine that features the GOP's orange messiah on the cover. He did that himself, so why not? For them, it's "Be Like Don!"
Just so you know, there was more to Trump's attempted "Gettysburg Address" than the words in the above meme. Try this on for size:
"Gettysburg, wow. I go to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look, and to watch, and, uh, the statement of Robert Lee, who's no longer in favor, did you ever notice that? No longer in favor 'Never fight uphill, me boys. Never fight uphill.'"
It gets better: Traitor Don was nowhere near Gettysburg. He was in Schnecksville. That's just a few miles northwest of Allentown. Gettysburg? That's about 125 miles away. Trump had no idea where he was and no sharpie applied to a map was going to help him. His mind is as gone with the wind as his cherished Robert E. Lee is.
Virtually none of the national media acknowledged the disjointed speech of their boy. Why would they? That might hurt his chances and those in the boardrooms want to protect him so he can have his chance to destroy the great American experiment with something called democracy. You think Paul Ryan sitting on the FOX "News" board and NBC trying to install Ronna Romney McDenial on our home TV screens was just a coininkydink? Wake up!
The morning of Traitor Trump's mini Nuremberg rally, The Allentown Morning Call (Tribune Company) the city's daily paper presented a blatantly pro-Trump puff piece on the pre-show festivities. Reporter Anthony Salamone mentioned that the line to get in was somewhere between one and two miles long which is almost believable due to the fact that, as I said, the rally was in shameless Pennsyltucky. Here are some fab quotes from the attendees who have all been likely brainwashed by the likes of FOX and Newsmax. This is how the Repugs do it folks, and they do it very well, much to the detriment of this country and to the benefit of our biggest adversaries.
1. Stephen Toth of Macungie, PA, doing his best Sean Hannity or Alex Jones imitation:
"I'm a Trump supporter because of the economy, the gas, the border and we have no respect around the world with Joe Biden."
2. Joe Marsello of Schnecksville summoned his testosterone and took a similar tone:
"He doesn’t back down. When he was in this office, countries respected him, and I don’t think they respect us today."
3. Fernando Lima, a visitor from Newark, NJ and an immigrant from Brazil expressed his concern about immigration, saying:
"I don't want to see it go down the drain by leftists. I don't like the way they are opening the border."
Others in attendance talked about "getting the country back on track" and hoping Trump "kicks some butt." It was a consistent onslaught of the brainwashed repeating stock phrases from Trump's speeches and FOX "News." You don't have to go to backwoods Georgia to walk among the Marjorie Traitor Greenes, Lindsey Grahams, and Lauren Boeberts. The Lehigh Valley is full of them. Pennsyltucky might as well be a Roger Corman film.
But, just so you know, not everyone in the area is pig ignorant, insane, or braindamaged from a life time of excess sugar and fast food chemicals. Brother and sister Ken and Kelly Dando stood along nearby Rt. 309 and held a sign inviting the attendees to a "Traitor Convention" for Trump. Said Ken:
"He's made us the laughingstock of the whole world, and I think he would be awful for the country if he got back again."
The Dandos are right, of course, those walking dead in Schnecksville on Saturday just don't get that the mere presence of the gooey orange object of their love on the American political scene is the biggest reason that the rest of the world so often feels that we've lost our minds.
Reporter Salamone put the Dandos at the end of his puff piece in a seemingly transparent effort of creating an illusion of being "fair and balanced." To show additional support for Traitor Trump, the Morning Call partied like it was 1984 and also provided live updates of the rally on its website.
