Kadizzle went to the liquor store to buy a bottle of wine for dinner. As he often does Kadizzle quized the clerk about his view on politics. In no time the clerk sounded like a replay of a Rush Limbaugh broadcast, then the other clerk chimed in. Conducting these little straw polls has clearly shown the right wing fantasy is flourishing in North Dakota. People are angry. People feel busted flat, but they are clueless about the cause. They just need someone to fight for them. Hitler capitalized on this mood and we all know the results. When Hitler simply made things up, people wanted to believe so badly they did.
Now we have Trump, the modern day equivalent of Hitler. Working people know they are getting screwed, they are in the mood to buy any story, and they do. Trump is clearly mentally ill. He is a pathological liar, he is a narcissist. Trump is a circus barker for the greatest show on Earth. The simple minded eat it up. The scary part is it might work. Trump knows how to play to the redneck and the working white man who feels his country slipping away. Trump plays to the worst in all of us, and it works.
When you were a kid you wanted to believe in Santa Claus, but facts slowly eroded the illusion. One reason Santa Clause worked was because you had an immature mind, a mind that did not seek facts, a mind that knew nothing of logic. Sadly so many today still have that immature mind that does not see through the Trump lies, and fantasy. Our country is in real peril from a tsunami of ignorance. Fox News sprays the airwaves with falsehoods, and people line up to get soaked with stupidity. Fox News knows people who are overweight want to be told they are skinny, so that is their business model, tell the dingers what they want to hear. Next the dingers go to the coffee shop meeting and assure each other Obama is after there guns, and he was born in Kenya.
