Disrespectful NOT weird.

 

(2.25-minute read.)

I am a veteran.  I enlisted in the Army in 1966 for a 4-year hitch.

Photo op over dead bodies.

            There were a lot of words that I could have used in the title but disrespectful seemed to be most appropriate.  The rapist felon Trump using the Arlington cemetery for a campaign photo op is disrespectful to those that are interred there.  Trump has already done a campaign video with video taken at Arlington.[1] 

Trump is a traitor to our nation who staged a violent coup in an attempt to stay in power. He tried to overturn the results of an election that he lost.  The rapist Trump had no business desecrating Arlington National Cemetery to make campaign videos and photo ops.  He dishonors our nation and what America is supposed to stand for.

The men and women that are buried at Arlington National Cemetery are ethnically diverse, queer and straight, from every walk of life and political affiliation.[2]  Campaigning there is forbidden by law.  Any fucking moron should have enough fucking common sense to know that.  But no, NOT MAGA.  NOT TRUMP.  Even though they were warned ahead of time.[3] 

Arlington is the final resting place for those that have served our nation in peace and in war.  It should be a somber place.

It’s hallowed ground.

Trump has a history of dishonor.

            The rapist Trump and accompanying campaign staff and others violated the Hatch Act by using the cemetery for a campaign opportunity.  The policy of the Arlington National Cemetery is clearly stated.[4]  The problem.  The Hatch Act has no teeth for men like Trump. No punishment for violators that aren’t employees of the Federal, State or Local governments.  It’s as if being found out violating the Act is enough of a humiliation for others.  For those like Trump without shame or remorse it isn’t. 

            From the time that the rapist Trump defamed Senator John McCain to this very day, Trump has dishonored veterans.  Trump dishonored veterans when he avoided the draft because of non-existent bone spurs.[5] [6]  He dishonored veterans when he said that him awarding the civilian Presidential Medal of Freedom to his donors was a bigger honor than the military Medal of Honor because recipients were often physically messed up.[7]  Meaning they weren’t always pretty to look at because of the injuries that they received in war. 

Only two Presidents are buried at Arlington.  William Howard Taft and John Fitzgerald Kennedy.  Trump can be buried there if he decides that he doesn’t want to be buried at a golf course alongside the first wife that he cheated on.  Just think, a man that calls veterans suckers and losers can be buried alongside honorable men and women that served our nation and democracy well.[8]

Ironic, isn’t it?

J6 Traitors Gala Awards Show!

(3-minute read)  Edit:  The awards show has been cancelled until after the 2024 election.

Calling all Traitors!

            Following up on the heels of using Arlington National Cemetery for a campaign stunt the rapist felon Trump is letting the Stand in the Gap Foundation hold a J6 Traitor Gala Awards Dinner and fundraiser at Mar a Lago.[1]  MAGA will celebrate those that assaulted law enforcement, breached our Capitol, vandalized offices, threatened the Vice President with hanging, and shit on the floors.[2] [3] [4]  MAGA courageous heroes one and all! 

            Being a traitor can be expensive!  Especially when they end up committing what normal people call crimes!  Some of the J6 traitors have fallen on hard times and need money for expenses.  You didn’t think the fundraising was for them, did you? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! No.  But perhaps Trump will peel off a $100 from his walk-around money for their legal expenses.  It could happen. 

            There will be workshops.  How to spot an FBI informant.  How to avoid getting arrested.  Jesus and Trump—the good news!

            It should be quite the soiree!  Rudy Giuliani is a confirmed speaker.[5]  Man, if he shows up drunk it could be a real barn burner of a speech!  Convicted felons could even give talks about their time in prison and what heroic criminal act they were unjustly sentenced for.  It isn’t known yet if Hawley is going to talk.  Man!  Wouldn’t it be great if he ran to the stage with the Chariots of Fire music playing!  They could use a rah-rah pep talk. 

            Christian Nationalists will be there as well to get Jesus’ blessing on the gala event.  Their Jesus loves him some politics!

            It isn’t known yet if the invited rapist felon Trump will speak at the gala.  Perhaps he could use his time to explain why he didn’t pardon all of his heroes then while he was still President since he knew they were going to be charged for their crimes.  He did pardon other traitors. 

            What a day J6 was!  Who can forget Missouri MAGA Christian Nationalist Senator Josh Hawley raising his mighty fist of power to show solidarity with the traitors that came to try and overthrow our democracy.  Here’s his picture below.

Good times, Josh Hawley!  Good Times!

            Just look at Hawley’s stern countenance!  And that raised fist!  I’m surprised that some of the traitors didn’t just swoon on the spot.  Of course there is that unfortunate video of him running away from his patriotic buddies after they breached the Capitol.  I love the version of the video with the Chariots of Fire theme music playing.  Perhaps he’ll get an award for that since he along with 147 other MAGA Republicans did end up voting to hold up recognizing Biden as President as part of their coup attempt.[6]  

            Traitors will be getting together to talk glowingly about their righteous participation in an insurrection.  Will Trump hand out Presidential Medal of Freedom awards to any of the traitors that did an excellent job of assaulting law enforcement?  Buy a ticket and find out! 

            General admission ticket prices start at only $1500!* 

Come one! Come all!**

*Law enforcement should inquire about special rates.

**Sorry no children or babies allowed Trump doesn’t like crying babies.[7]
