Midnight Meme Of The Day! Trump Is A Walking Compendium Of Republican Character

Republicans See Vileness As An Attribute

by Noah

It's amazing to me that people can still ask how anyone could have ever voted for Traitor Don Trump and even do it more than once. I hear that question a lot but that's because people that ask that question believe that everyone is as morally decent and humane as they are. That's why I go on about how naive and just plain blind good Americans can be about their fellow citizens. It all begs the question of just how much more evidence do they need? It was obvious from the moment Trump began his first campaign that he is capital N Nuts, not to mention full of evil ambitions. I'm being generous there, since, as a New Yorker, I had seen up close how evil he is at least from the day the courts showed us what a racist bigot he and his KKK father were when it came to renting their apartments and the day, years later, when he placed full page ads in the New York newspapers that called for the death penalty for "The Central Park Five." Those young men were eventually proven innocent but he still wants them dead and refuses to retract any of his statements on the subject. Does that make him a perfect Republican candidate? Sadly, yes it does.

So anyway, in answer to the question of how anyone could vote for Trump, each panel of the above cartoon provides an answer. I will be fair enough, because I am always fair, to acknowledge that any republicans you know aren't necessarily guilty of every single one of the Trumpian character flaws depicted above but there's plenty to go around and it's safe to say that any Republican you have  the misfortune to know will find most if not all of these Trump traits just as appealing as we find them appalling.

The examples of character shown in the cartoon can all too easily be seen as the essence of his support. In total, they amount to the platform and foundation of what it is to be a republican politician or voter. This is also why Republicans in Congress love keeping him in office. They looked at Trump in 2016, said "That's our guy" and cheerfully made him the leader of their party. At best, depending on which individuals we're talking about, it was the ultimate in sociopathic and psychopathic moves. And, I'll add that, since then, many of them have moved from sociopathy into full blown psychopathy without batting an eye; no qualms at all, quite the opposite. Since then, the opportunities for them to logically  change their minds have come in waves multiple times a day with every tweet, utterance, and action of their dear chosen leader but, for focus purposes, I will just point out 2020, 2024, and the two impeachment trials. Each occasion presented them with the perfect chance to change their ways, the ways of their psychopathic party, and the direction of this country and by extension, the planet. The party leaders and politicians who chose Trump to front for them are all in. They sold Trump to themselves and they sold Trump to their voters more times than would indicate that they would ever change. They continue to willingly be traitors and only a fool would believe they would be any different in 2028 if that scenario came to pass.

I've said this before but it certainly bears repeating: The congressional Republican traitor class likes to play the "I'm afraid of being primaried card" when the chance to do the right thing comes up but, all they are really saying is "Me and my cushy tax supported welfare perk-filled job are more important than you and this country." Not to mention the factor of the money they're taking in from Putin, Xi, and various corporate CEOs around the globe, of course. You think Nazi pigs like Musk, Bezos, Thiele, the Mercers, the various banksters, insurance slime, and the rest are the only ones in the latter category?

The "I'm afraid of being primaried" thing is a canard. Leopards don't change spots. It's the way they were born. These people aren't afraid of the voting public. This has gone beyond that. They should be afraid of all of us and ideally they will be, the sooner the better, in a much bigger way than they seem capable of envisioning but, a few rumbles here and there, they aren't right now. These people are no different than the judges and cabinet members they all so eagerly voted to put in place knowing exactly what would happen. Those judges and administration officials aren't so subject to reprisals at the voting booth as the politicians yet they act the same way because they think the same way. Therefore, they are the same. When they recently pushed for Trump to lead them again, it was all about the shared mission. They knew what Stephen Miller is. They knew what RFK, Jr. is. They knew what Pete Hegseth is, and on and on and on. They even have their own Mein Kampf Project 2025 bible and that's just a rudimentary outline of their dream of a horrid future for this planet and everyone on it; the dream that they hold so dear. What they do they do because they want to do it. It is embedded in who and what they are. They are on a Pro-Trump Jihad or else he would have been gone from the scene long ago. If they sold their raving Nazi madman to the country, they can unsell him. The alleged "fear" is nothing more than their excuse. They could draw up the papers, impeach, convict, order up the firing squad or inject the bleach, and be rid of him by Sunday. Yes, it really is as simple as that. It's only a matter of will. Everything and anything else they say is bullshit.

One final thought for today: The fact that Traitor Trump rode down an escalator instead of up an escalator to announce his first candidacy is, in retrospect, very symbolic.
