In my nearly 65 years of life as a citizen of this country, I am never more embarrassed to be an American than I am today after Drumpf's disgraceful display yesterday in Alaska with Vladimir Putin.
On a United States military base no less, Drumpf not only had an actual long, elegant red carpet rolled out in dramatic fashion for a mass murdering, genocidal dictator who is also a UN wanted war criminal, but also had our own military men and women give the mass murdering war criminal a grand entrance military salute and an expensive, taxpayer funded flyover by military aircraft.
And after the red carpet was rolled out, Drumpf then makes his dramatic entrance, weaving like a drunk down the red carpet where he then stopped and pranced around like an anxious schoolgirl about to meet her rock star idol.
Clapping like a trained seal, he giddily awaited the arrival of the Russian dictator. DADDY'S HOME! And Russian father, American traitor son, both laughing with big smiles on their faces, warmly embrace each other.
Drumpf then fetes the mass-murderer to a taxpayer funded military aircraft flyover show and military presentation. The two BFF's then hop into the US presidential limo together, ALONE with no translators or aides present, and speed off to presumably consummate their amorous reunion by carving up Ukraine and likely betraying even more US intel secrets than Drumpf has already betrayed:
C'mon - just look at that shit-eating grin on Putin's face. That is unmistakably a victory grin.
Ffs.
Can you imagine if either Biden or Obama had ever welcomed Putin in such an effusive and slavering fashion? Holy fuck, the right-winger heads would have exploded in mass unison and they would have been condemned as Putin tools and 'communists.'
I mean, what I see in this Getty photo is a confident, smug Putin smirking because he understands very well the gravity of the moment and the scope of what he has accomplished and won by getting Drumpf to fawn all over him like a fan-girl on the world stage while using the US military as stage props in doing so.
And in Drumpf I see a weak, bootlicking, quisling loser cravenly and foolishly sucking up to an evil incarnate individual who has subjugated his own Russian people to two decades of oppressive rule through massive election fraud, murdered all of his political rivals, amassed billions in stolen wealth for himself, and viciously slaughtered many innocent people with his dictatorial ambitions, and who would do the same to Americans in a heartbeat if given the opportunity.
And that is why Donald fucking Drumpf is not my president and never will be. He is a traitor to this nation, pure and simple and it is beyond depressing that more of my fellow Americans, including friends and family sadly, just can't see it, or worse yet, are seemingly okay with it.
If something doesn't change dramatically and soon, it is not just a matter of if a 'reckoning' will come for a nation and people who would abandon democracy in favor of a fascist authoritarian monarchy, which is what Drumpf wants to institute here in the US. Seriously, a nation that would entertain the idea of a future King Donald II (cokehead Jr.) as ruler for life of the United States of America, with crown Princess Ivanka waiting in the wings is a nation destined for a calamitous reckoning.
