This Carbon Based Life

By David Glenn Cox

I had every intention of writing about the doomed dreg ballroom in the people’s house. How a federal judge excoriated the Justice Department. Excoriating them for what Judge Leon called “bait and switch.” How the administration went out of their way to avoid any congressional oversight. How they equated Jerry Ford building a swimming pool with tripling the size of the White House. Not to mention the self-serving donors. Lockheed-Martin enjoys billions in government contracts and then donates ten million dollars for the ball less room. Is it a donation or a kickback? Casino owners, Trump only knows the best people. But that is enough of that. It is small potatoes. Almost too small and unworthy of mention in the grand scheme of things. It is Adolf Hitler’s parking tickets.

And I do mean scheme. But let us look at the full panorama of public affairs. Mr. Trump’s disastrous, demented, deviant Davos display. Set world leaders on their ears. And there is certainly a connection to the falling dollar. Two Americans were executed on the streets of Minneapolis. Not forgetting one more wounded in the leg. Not to forget one more murdered in a Texas ICE concentration camp. Mr. Trump being booed and heckled in Iowa. And finally, a Republican Congress slowly beginning to turn its back on Mr. Trump.

What is a demented, deviant dictator supposed to do? What did he do the last time his power was threatened? Mr. Trump is insane and accepts no limits on his power. What is he willing to do to retain that power? Understanding that IF he ever relinquishes his power. The Democrats are coming after him like a pack of ravenous wolves. It is a question for Mr. Trump of life or death. Mr. Trump will either rule forever in gory glory or he will be torn to pieces in the legal streets.

Now, I hate to ask this of you, but put yourself in Trump’s mind. I know, it’s a tight fit. But try to squeeze in and think as a malignant narcissist would think. Remember now, you don’t give a damn about America or the American people’s rights or democratic government. Think only about what YOU want! To hell with rules and laws. Who cares how many people wind up dead in the streets?

Mr. Trump sent the FBI into the Fulton County Bureau of Elections yesterday and seized ballots from the 2020 Presidential election. Why? That election was six years ago. Those ballots had been counted three times, and once by hand. The election had been certified. It’s old news! Right? No one cares. Right? But try to understand that this exercise wasn’t about changing the past. It was about changing the future. It was practice; it was a test. It was a dry run. Mr. Trump’s chances of surviving the midterm elections are nil.

Call it January 6^th 2.0. Mr. Trump was practicing seizing ballots. Mr. Trump jokes about having a third term, but understand. He’s not joking. Mr. Trump will not survive a midterm loss. Once he loses power, the whole world caves in on him. He’s just oozing megalomania from every pore now. He has crowned himself king of Venezuela. He’s an emperor now! He’s assassinated a hundred innocent fishermen as a simple, pointless pretext. He’s made territorial claims on Greenland when he could have just asked for whatever he wanted. But don’t you see, Winston? That’s not good enough anymore. The emporer makes demands! There will be no discussions or negotiations!

Threats are the order of the day. Trump threatens Iran. Trump threatens Canada. Trump threatens Europe. Trump threatens China. Do what I say, or else! Congress? I don’t need no stinking Congress. He rules as royalty. He’s untouchable. And now, he’s coming for the midterm elections.

When the American system of government was set up, there was a bargain struck. The federal government was allowed certain powers, and the states retained their own SOVERIEGN powers inviolate by the federal government. Elections being first and foremost of those powers. If the federal government controlled the elections it would in effect dictate to the states who their leaders were. That is why elections are run locally. Mr. Trump using the Federal Bureau of Indian playboys to seize a sovereign state’s property is an impeachable offense. It is a Constitutional violation of the highest magnitude, and shouldn’t be tolerated for even one minute.

Can you see where this is all leading? Can you see the final destination yet? History teaches us that if Hitler had been stopped at the Rhineland, WW2 and the Holocaust never would have occurred. But it is a weakness of democracy to avoid confrontation and war. The people won’t accept ugly but necessary events, and they won’t understand. Let him have the Rhineland, and maybe that will satisfy him. He said he had no further territorial ambitions in Europe, didn’t he?

If Mr. Trump had been stopped on January 6^th , we wouldn’t be in this precarious situation right now. If he had been prosecuted as he should have been. But big money talks, and small politicians cringe and crawl. They rescued the delusional madman from his fate in the name of partisan tax cuts. Maybe he knows better now than to try anything like that ever again? Maybe he has no further territorial ambitions. Har, har, har.

January 6^th taught Mr. Trump the opposite lesson. It taught him that he could get away with murder and mayhem. He is not our President. He is our overlord. His word is now law, and the courts are for simpleton suckers. The law said Mr. Trump had to release the Epstein files. Did he? The courts said to stop work on the ball less room, will he?

The states need to be making plans and putting iron doors on the ballot-counting rooms. To have well-armed security in place to defend the ballots from federal intrusion, even unto death. They must be prepared to open fire if the need arises, or we are all lost. And we, the citizens, must also be ready to defend the ballots, even unto death, or we too are lost.

We live in the day to day and rarely see the machinations and spinning gears of evil all around us. Oh, he wouldn’t do that. Nobody’s ever done anything like that before. It’ll be fine! The system will protect us! But no, it won’t, not anymore. This is Mr. Trump’s only option now. He has to. He just has to or he will die.

The situation differs from that of past presidents. Mr. Trump won’t just walk away into senile retirement. He won’t slip off into serine imbecility. He will be hounded every day until his death with prosecution. The New York State Attorney General is preparing to seize Mr. Trump’s assets in New York City. Do you think that will be allowed to happen? Trump will run to his old rubber stamp. The whores on the Supreme Court to quash the seizure. Has the dawn opened your eyes yet? This isn’t your father’s Oldsmobile. This is a revolution and you can either step up or shut up. Stand up or be shut down. Make your voice heard or forever hold your peace.
