Don't do it America
If it was not so
serious, in terms of the influence the incumbent can and will wield
over a huge chunk of the world, it would be laughable, pantomime
like. He's behind you, oh no she isn't. No point in rehearsing their
many good points. I have failed to find any. Suffice to say, in my
opinion, neither is fit for office.
However I see the
Sunday Herald picks on Trump as the pantomime baddy and by default
that Clinton should be elected. All pantomimes have a baddy, an evil
doer of wrong. Usually a man in drag playing a woman. So is it the
woman who is evil, not the man? The plot is normally based on some
fairy tale or other, although I find it hard to equate this farce of
a Presidential election to any fairy tale, although it certainly is
grim.
The Sunday Herald
pitches it's weight behind Clinton by castigating Trump mostly.
I actually think the
Sunday Herald has got into a fankle and has fallen into the trap of
not being honest. It takes up a populist position. “Trump is a
buffoon, not a lot of our readers will disagree with that so let us
hammer him.” They have followed the internal emotionalist line.
What can we say that will make me feel good about myself and make
others feel good about me.
They show no evidence
of rational thinking or external objectivism. They do not seek to
understand the problem and properly articulate it honestly, no matter
how others perceive them.
I question their
values. Are they asking us to agree that tax evasion, misogyny and
being a sexual predator, outrageous though they are and certainly
enough to have Trump debarred, are somehow worse that mass killing,
overthrowing governments and killing children by the thousand and
bombing people out of their countries.
In her case, lies,
deception, not just in terms of electronic devices and emails. The
Clinton Foundation, based in Canada to prevent USA investigation, the
acquiring of many million dollars from all over the world, including
a whole raft of questionable donors. What are they promised in
return? The foundation headed for Haiti at the time the USA
effectively invaded that poverty stricken country. The aim of the
Foundation to bring aid to the population. Well, have a look at the
tens of thousands still in tents, living in squaller. Where is the
evidence of aid? What is clear is that many millions were collected
by the Clinton Foundation and precious little made it any where near
Haiti.
She is one of the
elite, part of a political system that has no truck with the ordinary
person. Clinton, in 2008 said she would obliterate Iran with nuclear
weapons. When Secretary of State she was involved when the USA threw
out the democratic Government of Honduras. Later when she was
involved in the destruction of Libya, in my opinion akin to a war
crime, she gloated over Gaddafi's death in the words, ' we came, we
saw, he died. ' One of her closest allies Madeleine Albright once
said on live television, about the the death of tens of thousands of
children in Iraq, ' it was worth it.' Her, Clinton's, performance
over the deaths of the US Ambassador and Embassy staff in Benghazi
shown a callous incompetance. She should have been dismissed, as
Senator Rand Paul clearly thinks and stated when he filleted her at
the subsequent hearing.
Trump, for the faults
he has and he has many, is a maverick intent on opposing the
'system'. I am no supporter of Trump either and like Clinton he
should, in my opinion get nowhere near the White House. Not that I
think he will.
No, the headline should
have read, ' Don't do it America.' However there should have been a
photograph of Clinton beside Trump.
