Trump Trauma
(Letter)
Brooklyn, NY
13 November 2016
Dear WV:
When George Bush was elected over Democrat John Kerry in 2004, you wrote, as best I can remember, “The re-election of George Bush is bad news, but the election of John Kerry would not have been good news.”
Filling in the corresponding names from the 2016 election would pretty well sum things up.
Another point: on the Wednesday after, Clinton, and on Thursday, Obama and the entire media, were telling us that despite everything we must “unite” with “our” new president.
Why? “Unite” with what? Unite with his racism, unite with his sexism, unite with his KKK supporters?
This proves that their opposition to Trump was totally bogus. Do any of the pro-Hillary demonstrators realize this?
Obama said, “If you succeed, the country succeeds.” Trump’s election was, in my opinion, a “success” for the ruling class. He said and will try to do what they want to say and do but couldn’t without losing all credibility.
As a comrade said, Trump is the true face of capitalism, stripped of its Democratic Party mask.
Fraternally,
Jack L
