Donald Trump: The Same Racist Loudmouth Chickenshit of Always.
Koh Lanta Island, Thailand, September 15th, 2024.

The Vulgar Bully knows his hour of reckoning is getting near. He knows he’s not fooling any non-Maga Americans when he stupidly claims he won the debate against Kamala Harris. Not only does he know he lost it, he also knows that facing her a second time might even be more disastrous for him than the first, which is why he’s afraid of going toe to toe against her again.

The whole world saw it during the debate: The Wannabe-Emperor has NO clothes. But there's more. In refusing to participate in a second debate, the Wannabe-Emperor has clearly shown he has NO BALLS. He’s afraid of Kamala. He’s revealing himself as just a racist, defanged, senile cartoon-wolf, all-huffs-and-puffs, unable to blow down Kamala’s moral fortitude and prosecutorial savvy.

Trump may be 6 ft 3 and Kamala may only be 5 ft 4, but on that stage on September 10th he was in comparison reduced to a midget before Kamala’s higher moral and ethical stature. With a simple “you are a disgrace” stroke of truth, Kamala broke to pieces whatever mask of moral superiority Trump and his Maga followers might have ever thought he wore.

As a result, the wannabe-despot is now growing desperate and is panicking. And is so for obvious, very personal reasons: Losing in November won’t only mean losing his last bid for reelection, it will also mean having to serve the sentence that awaits him in the “Hush Money” case, which will very likely involve some jailtime followed by a longer period of house arrest.

But that would only be the beginning of his well-deserved unpalatable fate. There are other standing criminal indictments against him. 3 more Federal trials he will have to face as a private citizen, all of them related to the insurrection he incited on January 6, 2021. And what is he doing in the face of such fateful crossroads? What is his plan of action? As expected, he’s going Full-Racist. Full-Fascist.

In his feverish, desperate mind, there are only 2 possible roads ahead for him: Either he wins in November, or he takes power by force. In Preparation for the latter, he’s now embracing raving, racist lunatics like Laura Loomer, constantly pushing his Maga hordes toward the extreme-right, continuing to hurl false accusations against the Haitian community in Springfield, Ohio, which has already resulted in anti-government bomb threats in that city that have required the presence of the FBI on the grounds.

That guy won’t go down easily. In his corrupt, amoral view, it would be perfectly OK to sink the whole country in a second civil war if that’s what it takes for him to stay out of jail. The only uncertain factor in this situation is the extent to which his Maga worshippers will be willing to follow him down the destructive path of violence. To what extent and in what numbers.

As of today, there are approximately 750 J6 insurrectionists serving prison sentences, which would normally serve as a clear warning for anyone thinking of staging a J6 2.0. But FANATICS ARE NOT RATIONAL PEOPLE and we all know the kind of atrocious acts of terrorism American rightwing lunatics are capable of. Just recall the events of April 19, 1995, in Oklahoma City, when rightwing lunatic Timothy McVeigh blewup a Federal Building there, killing 168 people, including 19 children, and injuring 680 other adults.

But the 9/10 debate might have been a turning point in this election. Consider that just during the 24 hours after the debate, the Harris campaign raised US$47 million, including donations from 600,000 individuals. Those are not exorbitant numbers, but may easily be indicative of a national pro-Harris trend.

In my non-scientific assessment, the debate moved the needles of voter preference in favor of Kamala at least to, or close to, the level they were in 2020 in favor of Joe Biden. At the same time, it is safe to assume that the debate didn’t persuade any Maga fanatics not to vote for their false messiah.

Together, those two non-scientific assessments would suggest that, if the pro-Kamala trend continues this way, the presidential pro-Democrat vote should prevail over the Maga vote by a margin of at least 7 million popular votes and by close to 100 electoral votes.

In addition, there is the possibility that a considerable number of independents and other voters from the two major parties that sat out the 2020 elections, may by now have grown alarmed by the dangers that a Trump second term may represent to the stability of the nation and may have been further reassured by Kamala Harris’ commanding performance during the debate, enough as to decide to go cast their vote, not only for Kamala, but for other downballot Democratic candidates as well.

But my assessments are only assumptions, and quite non-scientific at that. I don’t have a crystal ball where to foresee the future. Nobody does. But there is one thing I certainly know for sure: That I will vote pro-Democrat across the board in November, come hell or high water, and I very kindly, but urgently, suggest you make sure you cast your vote as well. Nothing less than the future of American Democracy is at stake in this election.

As for the possibility that in the aftermath of the very likely Trump defeat there may be acts of violence against government buildings and even against elected or appointed officials, there’s not much any regular citizens like you and I can do about it, except to remain alert and be calmly, cautiously, and reasonably well-prepared for any unwanted contingency of that kind.

Vote Democrat in November. Anyone voting Republican is intentionally or ignorantly casting a vote against the integrity of the United States as we know it.
